Resident advisor review:
Here’s a bit of a strange one. Apparently Spain’s Dubbyman heard the two-minute-and-change song sketch that was “All These Good Feelings” from Oakland duo The Lady Blacktronika & Mattski and knew he had something. The track is little more than ambient noise of a city street, four organ notes and Blacktronika singing, but you can tell where he’s coming from: Mattski somehow turns it into enough to keep you engaged, and Blacktronika is passionate but reserved at the same time. After that, though, things get scrubbed up when Dubbyman and his brother, Above Smoke, come in with the clean organs and beatdown house on the remix. It’s nice, but it loses something in the sound upgrade.
I’m wholly conscious that I may be underrating Dubbyman’s effort, though, because on the flip is one of my favorite hypnotic burners of the current year: “If Some Rain”’s beat is nothing—a simple, lightly syncopated plod—but the static radio vocals of Blacktronika looping the title and “yeah” and the equally dreamy and unstable sampled atmosphere are exquisite. (The subtle, sizzling percussion that finds its way into the stereo field helps plenty.) It holds you captive for its seven-minute length. So much so that you can almost forget what comes before. “You’re on the DL” is classic slo-mo house, another beatdown cut but one that has the sort of rawness that will fit neatly into a Moodymann set.
Word and sound review:
After her intense “It’s all about survival” in 2007 for the “Oceans Species” sampler (Deep explorer 008), here’s the comeback of The Lady Blacktronika to Deep Explorer as an exclusive EP where Lady B write, produce and even perform the vocals in one of the tracks with her personal style, dirty house under the influence of the Motown Soul. Lady B is part of the Cocaine collective, new talents in the underground scene like the dj and producer Mattski who collaborates in one of the tracks of the Ep . also featuring a special remix from Dubbyman & Above Smoke.
530techno review:
The Lady Blacktronika
Mount Shasta, CA
Transplanted from California’s metropolitan centers, The Lady Blacktronika delivers laid back and soulful vocal house with a gritty, Detroit edge. Her first single was released in 2007 on Spanish deep house and beatdown label, Deep Explorer. The captivating Dubbyman/Above Smoke Remix of “All These Good Feelings” belongs in every house DJ’s crate.

Minuendo Recordings presents a new various artist vinyl Deep Wars (MND 14) following their line with one of the most acclaimed producers of the moment in the international deep house and techno sounds, Patrice Scott, along with the Spanish producers Above Smoke, Ordell and Ernie.
Patrice Scott, the Detroit artist and owner of Sistrum label presents “Nuonce” that is called to be a break dance floor in the coming months.
Patrice follows the characteristic Sistrum sound. Melody, synth and atmosphere.
100% Detroit sound from the motorcity to Minuendo.
“Save us” is deep house in pure state, composed by one of the most interesting artist of the moment, Above Smoke, Dubbyman’s right hand in Deep Explorer.
We can’t miss Ordell, our revelation artist in the previous album Grand Deep Auto (Mnd13).
With his “Hardface” he betters himself and sets a very high stardard. An amazing mix of synths, vocal, instruments and guitar by the hand of Amado. This is black music.
Ernie introduce in this album “Tsunamisadolight“, a fully ultra deep track.
Samples and keyboards which made a compendium of soft circular melodies, depth, tension with a touch of groove.
An essential disc.

LABEL.: SIGNS OF AUTHORITY RECORDS.
RELEASE.: 005
ARTIST.: DUBBYMAN (Deep Explorer Music)
TITLE.: TALES FROM THE DEEP E.P.
DATE .: JANUARY 2009
CONTACT.:signsofauthorityrecords@yahoo.es

SIDE A.:
A1 – The Homeless.
A2 – The Homeless. (dub)
SIDE B.:
B1 – Good for me.
B2 – Good for me. (Deep Explorer mix).
Where are living good times where the current american Deep house
,hits the clubs in Berlin and London, reaches to us the last release of
Signs of Authority. A spanish underground label, that support the Deep
house sound in Europe, always looking the other side of the ocean.
It,s the new work of Dubbyman (Deep Explorer Music). An ep in that
runs between the citys of Chicago and Detroit. A journey over 4 tracks,
in a commemoration of the spirit soul mixed with the electronic sounds.
SIDE A.
The Homeless.
Dubbyman plays with the possibilities of vinyl putting in one track two
different versions, connected with a vocal tool. The song is called The
Homeless.
In the first version Dubbyman hit us with a bassline very lively and hipnótic
percussions. The mark staff of Dubbyman being seen in the environmental,
giving pressure, and in the breaks where we can feel the groove of the track.
In the dub version the bassline is reduced,giving more presence to the
environmental showing a sound 100% Detroit. And don,t you forget the
special tool between the both tracks for djs that like to play.
SIDE B.
B1. Good for me, is a track that smacks to labels like Sound Signature and
Alleviated. much more luminous that “the homeless”. This track proposes a
dialogue Chicago-Detroit, where the sampler of saxophone and piano mark a
tone and the environmental the replic. The precious bassline under and the
voice sampler fills shows happiness to the listener, rounding off a amazing
deep house track to enjoy this summer.
B2. Good for me (Deep explorer mix) is the second version where Dubbyman
gives a twist to the bassline , more poignant, and the environmental, which is
felt most protagonist along from around the mix. The dialogue piano-
environmental gives elegance and life to a perfect track to dance in the
framework of a electronic club.

W & P Hgg, Funkstart ( Dubbyman/ Above Smoke Rmxs )
Preview
We are proud to present you the latest instalment for Cornuta Sound, Valencia after the first two releases from this Valencia based imprint became secret weapons in the cases of many beloved DJs like Larry Heard, Charles Webster, Ame etc. . A delighful deephouse tribute to Gill Scott Heron with sparse spoken words from the soul poet laced over an bouncing, organic rhythm and ultra-deep rhodes chords. Proper deep business that should find favour with fans of Moodyman, Charles Webster or stuff on labels like Mojuba. a very limited 500 copies one sided 160 grs. vinyl, specially done for connaisseurs.
After W & P Hugg aka Hugo Giner from Valencia had scored a veritable underground hit with “Sleep Scott Heron” the last release on his higly
collectable Cornuta imprint and after an excellent EP on Spains deephouse flagship Deep Explorer, he know brings more heat on Cornuta accompanied by Deep Explorers Dubbyman and his brother Above Smoke returning the favor on the remix tip.
On the self-explaining “Funkstart” and the percussive pressure-cooker “basic groove” W & P Hugg gloriously displays his great ability to strip down his tracks to the addictive essences of deephouse without unnecessary gadgets or pointless tootling: pure irresistible grooves with classic funk basslines, vocal snippets and simple rhodes keys to warm the heart – straight up heat!
Dubbyman builds a completely new complex midpaced groove around Funkstarts original chords , while Above Smoke drops the 4/4 drum altogether for a swinging broken beat mix with live bassline and nice jazz guitar licks.
Absolutely essential release!

TITLE: Strange days EP
CAT #: 014
FORMAT: 12″
A1 Sunday manifesto featuring Jus_Ed
A2 Les vampires bakalas
B1 Sunday manifesto (Rick Wade’s sunday fear mix)
B2 Today, brother
Preview
The countdown is on the way to celebrate 15 releases on Deep Explorer and the previous step is this number 014 signed by Dubbyman.
Strange Days Ep reflects in a four tracks work, the meaning of the deep sound in different ways without prejudices about time and forms.
The Opening track is “Sunday Manifesto”, a groovy moody track with an obsessive chords taken from the old soul scene and the speech of mr JUS-ED the head of UNDERGROUND QUALITY one of the most important labels in deep house at this time. Taken from a skit of his monstrous “Unitu Kolabo 4×12″ , Jus-ED let us a funny but true opinion about working in the holidays, specifically, on sundays…
Later comes “Les Vampires Bakalas” a darky midtempo tune below the 110bpms that mix crazy moogs with spiritual percussions and a shocking clap that would remind some of those B sides on Psychostasia records..In the B side we got the dinamic remix from “Sunday manifesto” by the hands of RICK WADE (Harmony park, Funky Chocolate, Trackmode…) He accelerates the tempo, extends the groove and burn the floor, playing with the voice in a funny way. A 100% Rick Wade remix.To close the Ep “Today Brother”. Combined elements from old disco and funky live music to make real and imperishable house music that at times sounds deep and later disco with a bassline that hypnotize the dancers.. Sounds a classic..but it’s new, man!We’ll see you at the 15th….Go ahead explorers…..

Dubbyman “Dubless EP” Yore 013
Review
Yore continues the hunt for an extra portion of the deep. This latest 12″ Release
by Spain’s “Dubbyman” (head of Deep Explorer Music), brings us some serious
deep early morning house grooves, filled with overwhelming warmth and
sensational sweet melodies. Each down-tempo track, focuses around an overall
strong groove, that will get you feet whip and get your heads turning, while
soulful voice snippets flirt with your ears. Dubbyman is at his best on this
“Dubless EP” and surely proves to be a man to look out for. The ep also features
a remix of “Loveless” by his brother Above Smoke, that takes the original mix
more into a clubby 4/4 vein and nicely gives a round up to this. Dubbyman &
Above Smoke are the heads of Deep Explorer Music, a label that has become
a cult for all deep house lovers after having splendid releases and remixes by
Nick Sole, Juju & Jordash, Mick Huckaby, Lady Blacktronika, Sasha Dive and
others. If there could be a message to this release, we’d say it should be:
Soul strikes back and empty hearted music will be
overcome musically. Word.
YRE013 in the media
Giles Smith secretsundaze / D: “Really like what Yore are putting out. “Loveless” is quite lovely. warm, hazy and mmmmm as is “La Influencia”. Deeeeeeep! ”
