What are your favourite NU GROOVE releases?

[Deani]

Just going through some old records - got to the nu groove pile, this is one of the labels that got me into house I think the label took house in a new direction. My choices include:

disco tech - KATO

file #1 - utopia project (rheji burrell at his finest)

kennys jazz - powerhouse 2 (took me years to finally get hold of the 12)

tech trax inc - tech trax

open house (forgot the title, its got a blue label)

to start the ball rolling...............

[eleeut]

don't have too many of them, but:

aphrodesiac - your love/just before dawn
33 1/3 Queen - SEARCHIN
NY hous'n authority - "apartments" ep

[DaveR]

Many great ones, but this is my Favorite

"My Love is Magic" - Bas Noir

* Although I liked the import remix better - came out later in the year on Champion or 10 (I think)

[Deani]

Forgot about the basil ep's too - absolute class. Kerri C did a remix of city streets.

love jazz documents by the way, reminds me of buying early strictlys like logic and sweet ambience....great era

[Nick_G]

I wish I had more from this label but out of the ones I have:

Reasons To Be Dismal-Foremost Poets (have the SBK.One version of this)
File#1-Utopia Project
Laws Of Chants Vol. 1-Vandal

I have other tracks on compilations though and stand outs from them include:

Song Of The Siren-Aphrodisiac
Annihilate-Lost Entity
How Many Times-DTR
The Poem-Bobby Konders
Fall Into A Trance-Critical Rhythm
Your Love-Aphrodisiac
Breezin'-Basil Hardhaus
I've Just Begun to Love You-Roqui

Network Records released a 4-CD box set of Nu Groove classics a few years ago. Very nice compilation if you only have a few of the 12ins like me.

@Deani:

I have the NY Housin' Authority album on cassette somewhere and its fantastic stuff - side A vocal material, side B instrumental and slightly more experimental.

I wish I had it on CD. IIRC the vinyl version had fewer tracks, although I may be wrong, this was nearly 14 years ago.

[Deani]

do it believe it - joey negro - another winner and one of the first decent british house tracks, although everyone thought he was american at first!

[Light Skinted Wif Good Hur]

A.B.T.--I Desire U--think that was the title

[Deani]

A BURRELL THANG....Just had a look it has a Ron side and a rheji side

Also Sharde by the vision....eddie maudro (the man behind sweet melody - mae 1) on production, a real spine tingler

[DJ Michael Terzian (Sinister)]

make me dance--BASIL HARDHAUS
city streets--BASIL HARDHAUS
the poem--BOBBY KONDERS
any BURRELL too!

[Deani]

CODES - CODE 6 (Mr Joey Beltram)with a bit of a harder edge compared to the other NU GROOVES.

The Kenny Dope tune with the graffiti style cover on dope wax....proper bo!

where is rheji burrell?

[Nick_G]

Deani, I asked the exact same question on another board nearly a year ago. I haven't heard anything from either him or Ronald Burrell since about 1992. Have they retired?

After so much fantastic music, it all suddenly went quiet.

Also liadback & Groovy forgot who made this..

[ronboogie]

Wow,

What a great question... I was just reorganizing my collection and ran across several Nu Groove tunes. Once upon a time you could buy a Nu Groove blindly and be guaranteed to have a good record. It kinda reminded me of Trax Records in its early days. A very gritty but soulful sound.

I really liked:

$1.15 Please
NY Housin Authority
Tech Tracks Inc
The Poem
House Negroes
The Sound Vandals

[mk7]

Hey'all
In addition to those mentioned:

Metro - Angel of Mercy NG005
Hou'z Negroz - How do you love... NG100

Two amazin' tunes
peace
