Hurrah with Drrtyhaze

Hurrah is turning 6 this Saturday, which is kind of crazy. 6 years of Hurrah adds up to about 288 hours (or 12 entire days) of excellent guest DJs & performers, new and old jams, dancing, and drinking Red Stripe!!! To help us make this momentous occasion as awesome as possible, I've made some improvements to Hurrah's sound system (more bass!) AND mega DJ & producers Drrtyhaze are going to bring their top shelf disco & house music blend to the rave cave!

Drrtyhaze is Matthew Moffre & Doug Gomez. They're based out of NYC, have each been DJing for 15 years, and they have releases on Gomma, Tirk, Redux, Under the Shade, Truffle, Airtight, Nang & Speak Recordings. Last April, they released Love Loud, their debut album, on Nang. Check out their Soundcloud for a bunch of originals & remixes, and download their mix of Chicago classics below.

Quiet Song

Raw, jazzy & deep! I love the contrast between this song's heady, mellow vibe and the jarring vocal sample.

Make Me Over

To clarify, this isn't "Escort," the (awesome) 17 piece NY disco orchestra. This is a group of New Jersey inmates from the 70s who convinced their warden to allow them to have instruments & recording gear. Make Me Over is one of their later releases, so I'm not sure if they were incarcerated when they recorded it. Behind bars or not, you can't deny this groove!

"You can bend me, shape me, anyway you wanna... make me over!"

Ten City with an acid twist, thanks to the one and only Marshall Jefferson. A true dollar bin jam.

Funk Deluxe

 "This Time" by Funk Deluxe is a pretty sweet jam from '84 with a dub on the B side. Here is both the vocal and dub for your downloading pleasure. I must note that this is another record from the infamous Delaware collection my homie Ken gave me for free years ago. I made a interesting discovery the other day when i realized that all the best records had the name Master Boom or Eddie Boom written on them. This dood was the man so shout out to him. Enjoy.

I Want You For Myself

Razor N Tape's first 12" of J Kriv edits hasn't left my bag in months. Both sides are pure fire. Grab this freebie & you'll see why.

I'm not sure if the first 12" is still available, but you can still scoop their new white label of Late Night Tuff Guy edits from Juno.

Motha

The System (as in "You Are In My System!") are back with a new single in 2012, and the Party Bros. have a club ready remix for you! This track serves as a nice reminder of the influence Mic Murphy had on today's indie dance vocalists. Grab a free download from the Bros' Mysteries Of The Mind imprint:
