Strictly is amped to do what they do best, which is to get new exhilarating tracks out to house music fans. Their first all-new release features several of the label�s cherished old friends � Todd Terry, Kenny Dope and DJ Sneak, who have combined as the Todd Terry All Stars for the irresistibly catchy �Get Down� featuring the talented Tara McDonald on vocals. Strictly also has the single, �April� and album, �Beyond Elements� from the one and only Osunlade. The label is also thrilled to be teaming up with one of the brightest new talents in dance music, Quentin Harris, who�s creating a new EP and album for Strictly.
Masters at Work, better known as MAW to their mass of devoted fans, consists of world famous duo Louie Vega and Kenny Dope. Both originating from New York, the duo�s remix discography is an incredible catalogue of work, including mainstream artists from Madonna to Michael Jackson. As key producers of Strictly Rhythm, the duo underwent tough calls to select absolutely essential tracks for the compilation, including Barbara Tucker�s �I get lifted� and �Beautiful People�. The most sought after duo came together to produce one unforgettable project.
Generating support from those at the very top of the DJ food chain, Marlon D introduces three tracks strong enough to warrant a solo release. The irreverent 'Jesus Creates Sound' is a drum lead affair, incorporating frenetic hi-hats and cymbal clashes, eerie effects and resulting in a heads-down stomper of a track. 'Deep Spiritual Journey' is, as the name suggests, deep, deep, deep. 'Dance 2 Da Beat' is without a doubt the most upbeat of the trio and has already proved to be a hit amongst the big name DJ's. With a bouncin' bass line and an equally bouncy vocal, this is set to prove that Marlon D is certainly one to watch.
Tiefschwarz, the uber-cool German producer DJs, are famed for their innovative productions and their ability to bring cutting edge electronic music to the mainstream without compromising their integrity. Alexander and Sebastian Schwarz, brothers and music lovers, dug deep to contribute gritty, electronic, stripped-down-sound tracks for the compilation. Their addiction to deep House is apparent in their selections. Opening with a sinister sounding �This Beat is Over� while the mix goes on to highlight The Untouchables �Dance to the Rhythm� and �Trippin�. Also includes Hardrive�s �Deep Inside� and Aly-Us� �Follow Me.�
Welcome the return of house king Todd Terry! Featuring a blend of classics and contemporary tracks such as �Morels Groove 4�, Colonel Abrhams � �Victims of Loving� and CLS � �Can You Feel It� (not to be confused with Royal House), �Strictly Todd Terry� proves to be a crucial addition for any music lover�s collection. To think this was just another retrospective album would be a mistake. Todd showcases new projects such as 'Play On' and 'Get Down' which see him working with the infamous �My My My� vocalist Tara McDonald. Both are sure to be big chart successes worldwide. Other highlights include the retro sounding Marlon D � �Jesus Creates Sound�, and the tracky dance floor number Grand high Priest � �My Guitar�.
