Paper Cat is out on the prowl – buy it today!

That’s right… at long last Paper Cat has dropped. This is a release that has had an epic amount of hype behind it, so without further ado, here is what the pros are saying…

“Solid Bump does it again! Adulture & OCD Automatic’s “Paper Cat” just kills it on that funky disco house tip, with a HUGE sound that’ll tear up the club. Seriously, everything is banging on this track from the filtered loop, the drums, synths, bass and arrangement, perfect stuff to mix in with any house or disco set. The original is already so good, but they decide to throw you some excellent remixes too including a wicked version from Fool’s Gold artist Sammy Bananas who adds some nice sax work(!) and Levan-style synths over the top taking it even higher! Don’t forget to check the chilled out Bit Funk remix and the amped up and beat-repeated Phantom’s Revenge remix as well. Recommended.”Turntable Lab Editors

“This is nastyyyyyyy… summer vibes gone wild!”Drop The Lime (Trouble & Bass)

“Man that’s great! I played the Sammy Bananas Mix of Paper Cat – nice one!” Stretch Armstrong (Plant Music)

“Really nice EP, feeling the acid house vibe of the Bananas one the most, will def give that a play!”
- Matt Walsh (Clouded Vision)

“Somewhere between Pryda and Bangalter, this release is as timeless, soulful, and as fresh sounding as anything I’ve heard this year.” Emynd (Crossfaded Bacon)

“I love it. Been running the original version in all my sets. Sammy’s mix is definitely next level though.”Thee Mike B

Le Principle is DEAD! Free Download.

That is right, our beloved Le Principle duo has called it quits as a twosome. Now they are going at it alone. BUT FEAR NOT! Here is the official word…

After a year in the fast lane of the disco house revival, Josh Gard and Garrett Shingley have decided to part creative ways as Le Principle. The duo quickly flooded cyberspace with a slew of top tier productions which soon attracted our attention at Solid Bump Records. We quickly signed all the previously unreleased material the pair created. Blue Love is the final Le Principle song to be produced, but far from the end of the story. Both young producers will be continue to re-define the new generation of house music seperately as Adulture (Garrett) and Charlie Church (Josh).

Solid Bump Records chose to give away “Blue Love” to the masses because it is Le Principle’s perfect swan song and fully embodies all the things that made us decide to work with the young duo from the start. Their signature style of sampling, heavy knocking drums, and perfectly tailored groove based sensibilities are fully exemplified in “Blue Love”.

Adulture
Garrett will resume his previous alias, Adulture, continuing to produce his unique brand of stomping house. In turn, Solid Bump Records will be unleashing the long awaited Paper Cat single July 27th 2010. Paper Cat, features 3 huge remixes from Sammy Bananas, Bit Funk, and The Phantom’s Revenge.

Charlie Church
Josh will continue producing bass music as Figure, as well as launching the Charlie Church moniker for his disco-house creations. He recently released “Girl” on One for All Records gathering a bit of notice last month.

For now grab the FINAL Le Pee track from Soundcloud for FREE. And gear up for the future.

Interview with SF Weekly

Last Friday Hacksaw Ent. joined up with Solid Bump Records to present Carte Blanche (i.e. Mehdi & Riton). The show was top notch and featured an opening set from Shane King (half of Hacksaw’s team) followed by Eric from White Girl Lust. His set wrapped up with a short performance by SBR’s resident Diva – Alona who was accompanied by the Counter Culture Collective dancers for a full blown Burlesque style show.

We have full video we will be posting soon, but for now, read the interview from SF weekly to get a bit of the inside scoop about the full collaboration.

Medhi + Riton = Carte Blanche Mix

JULY 2ND!! DO NOT MISS

Carte Blanche (a.k.a Mehdi & Riton) have set off the start to their North American tour and reports are flooding in that their 4 turntable, 1 Pioneer CDJ, 1 TR-909 sets are MURDERING dancefloors. Thus we could not be more hyped for the SF show July 2nd at Mezzanine.

Shane King and White Girl Lust got together and compiled a 22 minute mix featuring selected tunes from all the artist involved – just to get you a taste of what to expect. We also included the debut of the full vocal version of White Girl Lust’s remix of Ghost’s of Venice “Her” featuring Alona. She will be joining White Girl Lust that night at the end of his DJ set to debut some more forth coming tracks. Expect some extra surprises in tow for that performance.

White Girl Lust- June Resident Advisor Top 10 w/Full Mix

With the help of our new homie David, we finally set up Solid Bump and White Girl Lust Resident Advisor pages. To kick it off we put together a Top 10. One thing that is lame about Top 10′s is having to track down all the songs to see if you even like them. Well, look no further, we have decided to do accompanying mixes on Soundcloud that include all the tracks.

All these tracks except the SBR exclusives are on Beatport. Support good new music and keep your eyes peeled for the ‘Her’ and ‘Paper Cat’ dropping on SBR this summer!

Laberge – Casual Days

Casual Days – that is totally true. Laberge might not have a new EP but he is not slumping. Instead he is steadily feeding the internetz with a slew of new material ALL FOR FREE. If you don’t take a listen – you are a damn fool. The scat-ish vocal coupled with the uber-funky bassline is reason enough to love it… and I could come up with 1000 other reasons you should listen. It’s summer? Oh no one told San Francisco.

This is my fave Laberge track of recent days.

Prince “Wanna Be Your Lover” (White Girl Lust Bump Mix) – FREE DL

For SXSW, our pal Mike 2600 of Burlesque North America compiled the 3rd installment of his Do It To It series. It had been literally a couple of years since White Girl Lust had done a bootleg (remember when those were white labels?) – thus we signed up. The result was this pumped up filter house remix of the purple crusader’s infamous 1979 hit. What else is there to say? Classic and useful = a winner.

Feel free to blog, distribute, manhandle… whatever… this 320 MP3. While you are listening become a fan of WGL on Facebook & Soundcloud.

Laberge – Caffeine (Free Download)

Laberge – he may only do a few official releases a year but his generosity keeps him pure. Let’s all hope this electro-funk tinged flavor is a trend he keeps up for his next Solid Bump release.
