Leeds night club Back To Basics and its resident / music director Ralph Lawson have unveiled a new project in support of rare house and techno classics. The new series of Vinyl EPs will be compiled into a full length album entitled ‘Back To Basics – Rare Classics’.
Released on December 7th, the first vinyl part – ‘Back To Basics Rare Classics
Vol. 1‘ – features club classics Lil Louis & The World’s “I Called You (The Story Continues)“, Mike Perras’ “Keep Movin” and M-I-Cara’s “Casa Beat“. Other artists included on the forthcoming releases are Neal Howard, Cassio Ware, Eddie Fowlkes, Cajmere, Mood II Swing, Black Science Orchestra and Armando. Plus, a full 14-track album version is scheduled for March 2018 release.
All four vinyl will showcase an original artwork from the godfather of punk Jamie Reid.
“The series focuses on highly collectable classic records from the club’s long history that paints a true picture of the music played on the dancefloor. The aim has been to create an album that anyone can enjoy listening to but is a valuable series for the aficionados.” said Ralph, who has spent two years compiling the releases.
Back To Basics is also celebrating 26th anniversary with a party next Saturday, 25th November at Church in Leeds. The line-up includes Masters At Work member Kenny Dope, Man Power and more.
