Artist: Morning Factory
Title: Raw Tracks Vol. 1
Label: Yore
Why We Need This Record: Synth-drenched tech house from the ever-reliable Yore imprint. This track builds to a minute and a half epic breakdown before dropping back in, Yore is making a name for itself of late for consistently putting out dancefloor focused house music.

Artist: Nebraska
Title: The Other Side
Label: Rush Hour
Why We Need this Record: Great soul sampling, slow grooving house. Rush Hour is on fire at the minute with it's output switching between clever new material and re-releasing lost gems. This sounds like a classic soul track and although I'm not sure where the sample is lifted from it sits beautifully on the back drop of the slow chugging bass and drums while subtle retro synths result in a perfect end of night anthem!

Artist:Jay Shepheard
Title: Umzug
Label: Dirt Crew
Why We Need this Record: Without a doubt the best house producer around right now and with Umzug he's created a monster! This funk-fueled house track is perfectly put together and ticks all the boxes, driving percussion and a simple bassline with swirling synths and lots of drops that keep it interesting. This takes all the best bits of Italo, deep house, disco and more and blends them perfectly to create a track that will work on any dancefloor!
