Live Trax Vol. 1 is the first in a series of new releases that come from live hardware sets recorded straight to 1/4” tape. It’s rough & ready deep house that’s been road-tested on cultivated dance floors, including Heidigluhen, Block 9, Sunset Sound System and Love International.Two years ago, a good friend - who knows stuff - suggested I should do a live show. Thinking it an interesting concept, I started building the idea of a full set with new and old music, and set up my hardware in a way that would allow me to make it work. Distilled down to the essentials, my live touring rig consists of four main pieces of gear - Sequentix Cirklon, Roland MC-707 & TR-8S, and a 1010 Music Blackbox.This process led to making music in a new way that harks back to the 90’s when I started - all hardware, minimal gear and recording versions straight down to the Studer A80 Tape machine. These tracks are the beginnings of the fruits of this process. If you don’t know me: as well as doing my own music, I work in various capacities as producer, mix engineer and arranger for Honey Dijon, Luke Solomon, Gideon, Horse Meat Disco, Defected Records and lots more.I’ve performed at as some the best clubs and festivals including Genosys & NYC Downlow at Block 9, Heidegluen, Adonis in London and Panorama Bar. My style of house and techno has always been tipped towards the underground, with raw, deep & driving sounds all key to the mix.Thanks for listeningLance

Live Trax Vol. 2 is the next instalment in the series that comes from live hardware sets recorded straight to 1/4” tape.These are road-tested, raw house rollers produced with the discerning dance floor in mind.

VINYL ONLY!!テキサス州・ダラス出身で現在はロンドンに在住しスタジオエンジニアとしても活躍。Brother Nebula名義では、ロウなハウス/エレクトロを披露し、注目を集めるベテランプロデューサーLANCE DESARDIのキャリア初期作にあたる名作『Jazz Salad』が正規再発!!昨年、22年の時を経て復活し、需要の高まったレア盤の数々をリイシューし始めた〈Pacific Coast House Recordings〉が、再び素晴らしいリイシューを届けてくれました!本作は当レーベルのサブライン〈Pacific Traxx〉より2002年にリリース。ラテン調の跳ねたコードとベースラインが、スリッキーなリズムセクションと絶妙にマッチし、中毒性のあるグルーヴを生み出した『Jazz Salad』、よりディープな時間帯に映える、怪しげな雰囲気のワンフレーズと底を這うベースコードが特徴的なB1『Boing』、B1のビート部分を抜き出したショートトラック『Boing. Boom. Shox.』の3曲を収録。余談ですが、このリリースに至るまでのローカルコミュニティの経緯は、ハウスファン必読な内容なので是非一読を。20年以上経っても色褪せぬ、USウェストコーストハウスの名作です!!レコメンド!!Dallas Native Lance Desardi arrived in Los Angeles alongside his roommate JT Donaldson sometime around 1999. At that time I was the head buyer & managing L.A’s largest independent dance music shop in the heart of Hollywood “Beatnonstop” on Melrose Avenue. We had just put out a double pack vinyl on Beatnonstop and a single on PCH feat. Myself & Cpen on both.Lance & J.T were introduced to me by Chris Penny aka CPen who was also a Dallas transplant to L.A and as chance would have it they were both looking for jobs. The two had been sojourning in Chicago for about two years under the tutelage of Spencer Kincy aka Gemini and the House Mayor of Chicago Derrick Carter.I hired them both and we soon became fast friends. I would lend them pieces of gear and keyboards etc to work on projects and suddenly we had this little community of producers and artist’s working on beats, bringing them into the shop for “show & tell.”This created a healthy atmosphere of us all pushing each other to make songs for the labels. This is one of the reasons Seductive, Pacific Coast House & Pacific Traxx etc were started to house the different projects and alias’s of us at that time.One day Lance showed up to work at the shop beaming from ear to ear a some pep in his step. Him and another co-worker Jaime G had gone into the studio that week and banged out “Jazz Salad.”As soon as Lance slipped in the DAT tape and the track came thundering through the speakers with Jaime’s deep Latin intro I knew it was going to be a big tune in the underground. Such a groove and so infectious it is undeniable even today 20 odd yearslater.So nice to see it back out on wax and not at the hefty discogs price tag of over a hundred quid! The flip side “Boing” is a deep late night groover that fits nicely into a Mark Farina style set with bonus beats to boot. Not to be missed. Classic.

『OM RECORDS』などからシカゴのベテランJT DONALDSONとのコンビで作品をリリースするLANCE DESARDIが、配信を中心にリリースを続ける恐らく自主レーベルと思われる『BANG THE BOX』から登場!!バウンスビートがシカゴフィールなB-1”Only You!”、程よくダビーな空間をシンセと男Voサンプルが挿入されるB-2”The Sound Of Thunder”などクオリティの高いディープハウストラックを3トラック収録した推薦盤!!!
