45even Heaven

Back on the track: One of my favorite Edits-Label, Beats House Records, returns in 2022 (yes, we have to wait much longer) with some new stuff. They announced 4 new releases (too little, when you ask me) for 2022. Three 45s and one LP. Once again Djar One shows his skills in editing stuff for pure dancing and asshaking. This time there will be two brazilian edits on the 45 called "Eu Bebo Sim" on Side A and "Marraio" on Side B. Both are around the same speed, i define as uptempo, e.g. "Eu Bebo Sim" is 124 bpm. Djar One did his best to make (again) funky edits for the dancefloor to jump around and have fun. I can't wait to put them on the decks and play them.  "Eu Bebo Sim" was originally released 1973 by Elizeth Cardoso and "Marraio" originally released in 1975 by Sonia Santos, which is, as i hear it, the source of this edit.   The release date is 04 February 2022 if everything goes well with the pressing, where some labels had trou...

Straight Outlaw Glasgow there comes a 7“ by Krash Slaughta called „Rebel Base“. Side A contains the original and Side 2 the Remix of „Rebel Base“.  A 130 bpm Hip Hop bomb with raps by Phill Most Chill. Oldschool Hip Hop Beats, broken on a high speed for B-Boys to Dance to. Starting with the beat and followed by scratches also on a high speed. This one reminds me of the first Hip Hop tapes i got from some skater friends in the late 80s with PE and other stuff  on it, also the beginning of german Hip Hop at that time. The beats are not only filled with raps and scratches, there are also spheric sounds, outer space samples and samples from sience fiction movies. This mixture makes this track explosive like a proton torpedo hitting the death star. You can buy this 7“ proton  torpedo on the big cartel site of Krash Slaughta:  https://krashslaughta.bigcartel.com/ With so much „space“ in those tracks ist only makes sense that the design is oriented at the Star Wars movies o...

Here my June 2019 mix. As i got much to do on my job as a civil engineer in Germany, there is less time for blogging at the moment. I´m glad i could make this mix this month in time. enjoy listening to it!

New 45even Heaven mix, April 2019. After the starter "Autobahn" from Kraftwerk, which was in German magazine "Musikexpress" as a blue 7", we get into one vs. another: "Origu/Our Label"  vs.  Breakin Bread     vs. A funky, hiphopy trip through two labels. ENJOY!

There is a new DJ Bacon 45. DJ Bacon, that Australian guy that brought us  "Back in Hell/Sure Shot"  at the beginning of October 2018. He is back with two edits on one 45. "Sweatin on the Dance Floor" is a edit from "U make me Sweat" from the Jungle Brothers and "Dance Floor" from Zapp. This two make up a perfect oldschool party tune. This one is actually from 2016 but it seems to be a timeless dancefloor edit that makes your feet move! "Poppa Large" is a funk burner with the acapella from Ultramagnetic MCs Kool Keith with his unique voice. The instrumental is, as he writes on his Bandcamp site, from the Dapp Kings. This one is definetively my favourite. The b-boy swing in the funky beats and the voice from "Dr. Octagon" make this one something i don't want to miss in my 45 sets. If you love oldschool Hip-Hop, breaks you definitely will love this two bangers. DJ Bacon is, as it seems to me, an oldschool guy and i ...

News News News.. Tramp Records 45s released some new stuff. Today there was coming in the new "Number Nine Records" with German Hip Hop by "Teecain" (aka MC Teekanne) from Munich. "Rentners Rap" is about being retired as a Rapper and watching the actual business on a nice funky guitar beats. "Brudermuehl No. 1" is a more chilly Track. Seems like Munich still is the No. 1 City for Hip Hop that is more real life than gangster.

Jazzman is the over brand of some 45s-labels like FUNK45, SOUL7, Popcorn, Fryers, RnB Hits and more. These labels release all kind of genres from soul, RnB, blues, funk, etc. and of course jazz.  The idea behind this label or better how it started was, that the founder "Jazzman" Gerald had the idea of re-releasing old records that where hard to find or only available for those who could afford them. Or to make it short: that everybody could enjoy good music. So he connected with the right-holders and artists to make it possible that you can buy classic tunes on 45s.  In the Jazzman Store you can also get stuff from other labels and in other formats. They also offer accessories from sleeves to t-shirts to 45 adapters. Check the 45s from Jazzman in the store here: Jazzman Labels 7"

First World Records style is Hip Hop and Funk in all kind of varieties. Founded by frustration about  the actual releases in the music industry in 2003.  I found out about them as i saw the "Children of Zeus" 7inch "Slow Down / All Night" in my Bandcamp feed. This Release is a Hip Hop / Soul track, that reminds me of the Bad Boy / Jermain Dupri tracks that where out in the 90s. Especially the beats.  By digging to their backcatalogue i found some funky, brassy stuff that i really liked. The releases are not only 7 inch vinyl. You also get 12 inches, LPs, CDs and Tapes as well as some other merch.  The First World Records Store is a collection of artist stores that are sent together by the label if you order different artists. You have to get through the releases / artists to find your stuff what. As far as i can say, if you like futuristic sounds you should dig through this store to find some "jazzy beats", funky and "heavy basslines...

Boca 45s Picture of the 45 Live Radio Show Boca 45 is a DJ and producer from Bristol, UK and one of the 45 veterans. I wanted to write about his shop when the 2nd of his  "Club Donuts" 45 s dropped but it was sold out as it dropped. Don't know exactly when the sale started on march 29th 2018, but it was sold out about noon in Germany as i realized on my Instagram. Thats less than 24 hours for i think 200 45s that he sold on his bigcartel shop. There will be 100 more of the limited 300 pieces sold on juno online recordstore but you have to be quick for that one too i think. His style is Breaks, Hip Hop, Funk, Disco and some Rock influences that are mixed into danceable Tracks. Check his Store here: Boca 45's Shop

Daytoner is a DJ/producer from Cornwall, UK and also a live band. This 45 is from the band and on it you will find two funky (northern) soul tracks with a great female voice. This one sounds like original from back in the days but i think that this comes around with a lot of energy that, for me, is missing on some of the old records. "Need You" and "Sicka" are to tracks that will definitively move your feet and if you got the chance to see them live, check them out. The videos i've seen are amazing. Get that 45 here: The Daytoner 7 inch vinyl Watch Need You: Watch Sicka:
