satoshi tomiie meets motorcitysoul

STIR1538 satoshi tomiie "back 2 basics" (feb 2010)
/ original version / motorcitysoul basic mix
/ motorcitysoul remix / motorcitysoul wild pitch

what a start into 2010. tokyos mega house hero satoshi tomiie is making his debut on stir15 with big time support from keepers of the house motorcitysoul. originally planned digital only on new york based saw recordings satoshi, hector and c-rock decided to license the original & remixes also to stir15 to keep vinyl alive and all vinyl djs and lovers in the loop! the music speaks for itself. fat house with oldskool elements but not sounding anachronistic at all. a sure shot for all house and tech-house heads and a very welcome relief from the current nonpersonal toolhouse releases out there. keep vinyl alive - we take you back to basics!

dj & media feedback: i really like this release - will play! (laurent garnier) / satoshi tomiie mes mix: love it! (joe t vannelli) / original and wildpitch are killer. love both (seth troxler) / dope remixes... will chart and play (radio slave) / motorcitysoul remix for me (danny tenaglia) / loving the motorcitysoul mix (bushwacka) / motorcitysoul mixes all the way! dope (brett johnson) / satoshi tomiie mix for me! great acapella versions by motorcitysoul! (joris voorn) / motorcitysoul basic mix is the one i will play! (d'julz) / all good! great mixes (brothers' vibe)

"cipher" remixes by sascha dive and jay shepheard

STIR1537 motorcitysoul "cipher" (march 2010)
/ sascha dive remix / matthias vogt mix
/ c-rock dub / jay shepheard remix

the motor, the city and the soul return to one of the longest running deephouse labels on the planet. with almost 40 releases and still kicking and keeping vinyl alive this release is no exception. matthias vogt & c-rock join forces again and present a heavy loaded package of deep house. with sascha dive and jay shepheard we got two men of the moment to remix cipher. dive's remix is built on driving beats and develops big time floor potential. vogt re-arranged cipher into an epic musical master piece that incorporates his piano skills. stir15 label head c-rock strips the whole thing down to a deep and tripped out dub and jay shepheard follows his last releases and delivers a stellar deep tech-house groover. a box full of house in different blends. after satoshi tomiie's back to basics this is another amazing release that already made big waves on housefloors around the globe.

dj & media feedback: like it a lot and will play it for sure! (karotte) / loving all the mixes but sascha's mix just pips it - no nonsense beats. great stuff! (jimpster) / c-rock mix for me, great dub, straight in da box! also like the jay shepheard mix (steve bug) / super release! playing sascha's remix in heavy rotation (nick curly) / great package! favourites are c-rock and sasha dive remix! solid! (kruse & nürnberg) / matthias vogt's mix for me... lovely breakdown, i dig! (rainer tüby) / sascha dive mix sounds sweet! (robert dietz)

c-rock, nacho marco and nic fanciulli serve it bloody raw!

STIR1536 c-rock "rawsen" (june 2009)
/ original / nacho marco remix / nic fanciulli remix

the rock is back on the track: c-rock is one half of german deephouse-duo motorcitysoul that brought gems to you like "keep on turning (feat. chez damier)", "mbali" or "aura". simple music released the highly rated "technique" album by motorcitysoul in 2008 incl. the ovasoul joint "change you". it seems like there is not much time left for c-rock to do much more, however he found the time to produce a heavy oldschool hommage with a massive raw flavour. nacho marco (loudeast/valencia) and nic fanciulli (also known for his striking skylark project) delivered two amazing remixes and made that package complete ranging from deep and groovy over fat and raw to crazy and stripped down sounds. .

dj & media feedback: deep and dirty and it's rollin'. will play it! (loco dice) / lovin it ... keep singing 'just a illusion' (terry farley) / nice one! will drop the original and the faciulli remix (robert dietz) / feeling nic's mix here, cool stuff sir and in the box! (leigh morgan) / excellent stuff, I'm jacking my body to fanciulli's remix' (neil quigley) / really like the tracks! beautiful! 'll play the nic fanciulli remix! thanks a lot! (ida engberg) / nic fanciulli mix. i like it. perfect for my set! (toni rios)

stir15 recordings is a house label and wants to keep vinyl alive. as much as we see the beauty of playing out mp3s and cds we still dj vinyl and love it. the sound, the feeling, the convenience. vinyl cannot crash and doesn't need to reboot. cdjs sound not nice at all and even more: they don't look sexy. therefore we'll try to release as much vinyl as possible and continue doing so for the near future. as this means a lot of expenses compared to digi-only-labels we encourage everybody to buy and play vinyl as often as possible and support us. of course you should not hesitate to browse, click & buy our music in the below standing whatpeopleplayer ;)
