Duff Disco
Notable re-edit maestro Duff Disco made a bit of a splash in the soundcloud-osphere this week when he announced that he would cease pressing his slow, looped-up beat-down deep house edits to vinyl. He’s instead opted to please digi-djs and frugal freebie-hounds everywhere by embracing the pay-as-you-please method; much of his back catalogue is now … Read more
Waze & Odyssey
Some months ago, a set of clips popped up from a duo called Waze & Odyssey. None of the songs had many listens, a hundred or two at most, which surprised me because I was captivated by nearly all of them. A few of my most favorite: Big boompity basslines, crazy cut-up vocals and old-school … Read more
Mic Newman + The Pleasure Principle
Mic Newman is one of the seemingly endless number of exciting producers who hail from Australia. I can’t speak from experience, because I’m presently physically located on the exact opposite side of the world, but it would that seem cities like Melbourne must have quite a scene going.

I can attest to the fact that they sounded superb in a live … Read more

But you’re liable to find anything and everything in his record collection, and nearly all of it re-edited and up for free download: A recent favorite of his that caught my ear in a big way: … Read more
Heion
I don’t know what they put in the water over there in Bucharest, Romania, but it apparently leads to local residents making incredibly dubby, melodic, funky, and dare I even say it, beautiful deep house music. I can’t help but hyperbolize about Heion. I hesitate to even call his tracks re-edits; you can tell sometimes … Read more
Lee Webster
Lee Webster hails from a place called Heaven, Spain, where he spends his days making “vagina music”, a genre only he and the remaining living members of Marvin Gaye’s estate know how to produce. “I used to get on the underground train to cross London in the evening so I could pick up the pirate … Read more
Chris Malinchak – Hollywood EP
Long time lovers of Jackersize may remember us bringing your blog-reading attention to French Express before. But after yet another solid release, it was time NYC’s Chris Malinchak got some solo love. His tunes are always big, bright and bass-ey; nearly every single one of them has a bit of a distinct warmth, and the … Read more
