Joel Mull 'Soursweet' finally sees the light of day! - It was actually the very first record signed to Spectrum and was due to be the opening release but due to unforeseen circumstances, the release was delayed.

But it has totally been worth the wait as the final package has already got a few very select DJs, who were lucky enough to receive it, VERY hot under the collar.

NS007 – Rob Threezy “The Change Up” Nightshifters – ELECTRO HOUSE
Nightshifters is proud to present the debut release by Rob Threezy. Hailing from the Southside of Chicago, Rob Threezy is part of a new generation of Chicago producers who are pushing the boundaries of club music, ripping apart borders between Baltimore, Dubstep, Electro and House. Hot off remixing Blaqstarr and Diplo's "Get Off" on Mad Decent and part of the awesome Brick Bandits crew and releases, Threezy's track "The Change Up" showed up on almost every blog and celebrity DJ playlist in 2008. Now it's 2009 and it's Threezy's time to shine!

The Change Up is his first feature release with 4 tracks of House and Bass inspired Bmore and 3 incredible remixes. "Dark Night" is a moody wobbly bass-line Bmore jam, more minimal that expected with a sort of light-rave feeling, while "Jingle Jams" retro drums and house-organs will be comfortable in almost any electro, techno or Bmore set. "You Bad" is already a staple track for many Dj's with a mix of ghetto sirens, gunshots and a frenetic Piano that always gets hands in the air. But it's the revolutionary title track, "The Change Up" which promises to turn heads, mixing indy-rock bass with Rave inspired synths, urban claps and wiggly bass to deliver one of the years most exciting new sounds.

Complimenting Threezy are three awesome remixes. Jokers Of The Scene take a moment out of their busy globetrotting schedule to deliver one of their best remixes ever. They take the Change up and make it a techno-rave prime-time moment with a buildup that's sure to get siren's blasting and sweat pumping. Dj Sega takes us back to Philly on his "You Bad" remix while young Trouble and Bass upstart Mikix The Cat throws some wonky synths around with his remix of "You Bad." Yummy!

KGB017 – Dexter “Waistland EP” KGBeats – TECH HOUSE
Dexter discovered the sound of acid house at some of the notorious acid parties organised around London in the late 80's. Nights such as Mad Cats, Sabre Sonics, the RIP parties in Clink Street; and then later the infamous Wiggle parties, which were to become a major influence in Dexter's sound. Since Dexter's debut release in 2000 he has been proud to be promoted by labels such as Wiggle, Absurd, KG Beats, Beat Code, Eye 4 Sound, and Uhuru Beats, to mention a few. His continually evolving London bred House sound has found favour with both DJ's and the global dance floor alike.

UNION015 – Kel Quadrant “Pork Suit Man EP” Union Recordings – HOUSE
"Ohhhh, honey, what have you done with my meat!!!"

IT'S ALRIGHT; everything is UNDER CONTROL...or is it??? What could possibly go wrong with 4 tracks of MONSTER SOUND??? Union is proud to feature another fresh name with tons of production talent. Who is this lover of meat products? Why are my arms tingling? What happened to the speakers? His name is KEL QUADRANT (not to be confused with Union Veteran, Chris Quadrant!).

When I first heard these tracks I said to myself, "Alright. Here's something I can work with." After hearing these tracks on a premium sound system at peak club time, I knew that it was destined to become Union-certified.

Okay, enough hype, now it's time to tell you what you're in for with this release. My personal favorite of the original tracks has got to be "Steak Slippers." This track is bonkers, not to be missed! The Groove Federation remix is off the hook, like you'd expect. I can't think of a better way to follow up their EP then with another classic remix. The original Pork Suit Man track as well Afro Who are both on par with each other, delivering a huge sound that has peak-hour party potential. DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS RELEASE! We're the underground's best kept secret, put the UH! back in UNDERGROUND with Kel Quadrant, Groove Federation, and Union Recordings: the PORK SUIT MAN EP!

*Receiving support from DJs: Benji Candelario, Davidson Ospina, Q-Burn, Lawnchair Generals, Jazzy Eyewear, Ibiza Global Radio, Kinky Movement, Special Interest, Ibiza Sonica, Jay West, Anthony Molina,
