Audiojazz – Summer City Nights [AudioJazz Music] {promo}
release date: Feb/24/2011
The self-titled lead track serves as a classic House call . . . inspired by sounds that emanated from legendary loft parties of NYC’s past, audioJazz musician Dirty Turk throws you right into the heat.
The debut EP from audioJazz, ‘Summer City Nights,’ consists of tree spirited House tracks that materialized out of fond memories from NYC loft parties, growing up on the Lower East Side of NYC and aimless walks through Chicagoland parks. Representing an inspirational starting point for audioJazz (musician Dirty Turk and engineers Bai-ee and K Koltz), this well-timed EP hits just as winter’s unrelenting bite takes its toll. Evoking thoughts of legendary loft parties on ‘Summer City Nights,’ playful memories and sounds of children reveling in ‘Park Life,’ and feeling that unabating need for the summer sun to ‘Come Back to Me.’ Adorned by a taste of Yvonne Gage’s monster vocals, hinting at what’s to come on future audioJazz releases, this first EP paints a picture that may remind some people of earlier times, but will have everyone looking forward to future summer city nights!
‘Summer City Nights’ – The self-titled lead track serves as a classic House call . . . inspired by sounds that emanated from legendary loft parties of NYC’s past, audioJazz musician Dirty Turk throws you right into the heat. Teasing reflections of a night in the city take shape with a rich and deep bass line, coupled with layered piano hits, and a flowing lead solo . . . an expression that could only have come from the close bond formed early on, having been able to create and grow musically, with life-long friends and the best in the business – Mateo & Matos, Big Brooklyn Red, Scott Wozniak. In the midst of all of this, Yvonne Gage’s distinct vocal stylings call out to you, leading up to an inspiring chant proper for late night dance floor sessions, reminiscent of hot ‘Summer City Nights.’
‘Come Back to Me’ – A track inspired by summer’s warm sunshine and the reality of winter’s cruel grip. A Diamondancer/Yvonne Gage duet that begs for the sun’s gentle warmth to come over them while the classic beat track takes you on a musical journey in and out of the summer season. Enlightening pads, gentle hits off the harpsichord and a throwback synth break represent the summer months paving the way towards an unexpected aggressive breakdown/bridge of winter inspired Deep Tech. There is no doubt you are left yearning for the sun again as the track leads you back to the light, with bright warm pads and the relentless plea of Diamond and Yvonne, calling out to ‘Come Back to Me.’
‘Park Life’ – Perhaps the most conceptual addition to the EP, this track is an intimate peek into much of what inspires and motivates audioJazz. Bai-ee’s rising gentle percussion and sounds of children in a playground on Chicago’s north side mixed with Dirty Turk’s NYC-style deep pads create a sublime feeling of positivity, a heavy kick and snare combination that seemingly fall out of the sky . . . and suddenly you are experiencing the gentle sounds of ‘Park Life.’ Relaxing hits off a saxophone, a powerful bass line stomp, classic piano riffs and inspired breakdown with rising pads. Everything is put into perspective, the sounds that define the magic of family, summertime and ‘Park Life.’

Scott Wozniak:
‘All 3 tracks are beautifully produced. A gorgeous slice of deep house heaven. ????’
Ralf Gum, GO-GO Music:
‘Some nice classic tunes here. I will support and play ‘Park Life’ and ‘Come Back To Me.”
Master Kev, Traxsource:
‘Very nice EP! ‘Summer Nights’ is definitely the cut to get your night started off right while ‘In The Park’ is on the more mellow, chill tip, sweet sounding for sure 🙂 ‘Come Back To Me’ has that old school 90’s jazzy house sound i used to love hearing from DJ’s like Tony Humphries . . . solid EP!’
Mike Fossati, Spirit of House:
‘audioJazz (musician Dirty Turk and engineers Bai-ee and K Koltz) launch their own label with the massive ‘Summer City Nights’ EP featuring vocals by Yvonne Gage and Diamondancer. First up is the title track featuring Yvonne Gage’s distinct vocals, illustrious keys and grand piano over a bass heavy late night groove, followed by the gentle ‘Park Life’ featuring sounds of children, luscious chords and jazzy sax over a stompin’ backdrop. Last but not least, ‘Come Back To Me’ features the spoken word poetry of Diamondancer and sensual vocals by Yvonne Gage together with delectable melodies over an intoxicating backing track. A fantastic release not to be missed.’
XJN – Break Even [Sploit]
Juice Operator – Hot & Sexy Ep [Clean House]
Se?or Stereo – Unintentional EP (The Remixes) (Incl. Treasure Fingers Mix) [Slow Roast Records]
When their debut “Unintentional EP” hit the charts this past june, the trio from Miami known as Se?or Stereo became a hot topic at the summer BBQ. All 5 songs entered the beatport top 100, and the standout “I Am The Beat feat. Louisahhh!” stayed in the top 10 indie dance charts for over a month. All of us over here at Slow Roast HQ thought it would be appropriate to have some friends and family serve up a second helping after witnessing the success of the first!
First up a tech yet funky remix of “Hot Damn!” from Nadastrom. Followed by big room house vibes on “I Am The Beat (Treasure Fingers remix)”. The third track is the immaculately produced, 90?s house influenced remix of “Unintentional”, by Vancouver’s U-Tern. Backed with a laid-back vintage disco rendition of “Hot Damn!” from Se?or Stereo member and billboard charting Gigamesh (Mike Posner “Cooler Than Me”). Next up the glitchy, IDM inspired take on I Am The Beat by Salva, and last but not least DJ Craze’s minimal breakdown of the EP’s title track Unintentional.
