Toolroomの4曲入りヴァイナル・サンプラー・シリーズから、強力な一枚が到着。まずはCHANEYによる‘I Choose You’。DefectedやInsomniacでも活躍する彼が、オリジナルのベースライン、リッチなRhodesのコード、感情的なヴォーカルをすべて自身で作り上げた渾身の一曲。ストリーミング累計40M超えの実力を証明する、間違いないクラブ・バンガーだ。  

続くGene Farrisは、シカゴのBasura Boyzとコラボした‘In My Heart’を披露。ストリップダウンされたヴォーカル・テック・ハウスが、フロアとラジオのどちらでも機能する絶妙なバランスを持つ。Toolroomのイベントにも常連のGeneが放つ、洗練されたクラブ・トラック。  

B面にはDeeper PurposeがJalja & Lazy Joeと共に登場。前作‘Stutter’で注目を集めた彼が、FisherのCatch & ReleaseやRepopulate Marsなど主要レーベルを席巻した流れを受け、さらなるアンセムを完成させた。Jaljaの幻想的なヴォーカルとキャッチーなフックが炸裂する、強烈なクラブ・ウェポン。  

最後を飾るのは、Tony RomeraとCrusyによるエネルギッシュなコラボ・トラック。Toolroomの過去の名作にインスパイアされながら、現代的なプロダクションで仕上げたこの曲は、ピークタイムのフロアを爆発させること間違いなし。圧倒的なビルドアップと攻撃的なグルーヴが、ダンスフロアに混沌をもたらす。  

Danny HowardやPete Tongらのラジオ番組でも頻繁にプレイされ、Kiss FMやSirius XMでも話題沸騰中。フロア映え確実なヴァイナルがここに登場。

The next of Toolroom’s 4 track vinyl sampler series kicks off with a bang(er!). Welcoming CHANEY back onto the label with possible his finest release to date in the shape of ‘I Choose You’. On Toolroom alone he has amassed over 40m streams across leading streaming stores in just 3 years and can add massive imprints like Defected, Insomniac and Perfect Havoc to his list of musical successes. Everything in this record is 100% original and written by CHANEY himself from the self-played bass line, lush rhodes chords and distinctive, poignant vocals.

Next up is Gene Farris who has been a mainstay on Toolroom in recent years and is a regular artist at our label events all over the World. ‘In My Heart’ lands as an exciting collab with the Basura Boyz, a duo also hailing from Gene’s hometown of Chicago and the chemistry between the 3 of them is evident from the first beat! A super cool, stripped back vocal tech house track that sits in that sweet spot of club and specialist radio.

Kicking off the B-side is Deeper Purpose who returns to Toolroom alongside Jalja & Lazy Joe, after his debut club weapon ‘Stutter’ dropped on the label last year. He has had success across all the scene’s leading imprints over the past 12 months including Fisher’s Catch n Release, Experts Only and Repopulate Mars and this record is an anthem in the making! Jalja is on vocal duties, the vocalist that shot to fame after her huge ‘Hanging Tree’ record alongside Michael Bibi. She adds her trademark ethereal vibe to the record and delivers a typically killer hook - This is a real EAR WORM!!

Wrapping things up on Sampler 14 is a very exciting collaboration from 2 of the scene’s brightest shining new stars; Tony Romera and Crusy. Having been die-hard Toolroom fans for many years, this record came about during a conversation about old Toolroom records, and how they collectively wanted to emulate that slightly progressive tech house but bring it right up to date. And they have certainly done that! A real peak-time dance floor moment here with insane production and a unique, intense build up that is already causing maximum mayhem!
