When Cats Attack

Jimmy Galle’s track When Cats Attack is out on Rough Cut Records. This techno bomb was just waiting to explode.

Press release:
Belgian techno goodness from Jimmy Galle. When Cats Attack is probably something what Jimmy endures every day….poor thing. Reason enough to write a song about it. Listening to this dark and long track, makes you wonder who won the fight. Jamez takes it a bit slower and makes sure the cat turns from fighting into purring. If you have a cat….make sure you have your headphones ready…it could turn dirty….

Rough Cut Records is a sublabel of Touché Records

Summer Compilation

Last summer I released a compilation with some nice tunes. Some old and some new tracks.

Press release:

The summer is coming and to celebrate the sun and happiness, we put together this “feel the warm breeze at the beach with a cocktail in your hand” compilation. That is of course a nice title, but  ‘Summer Rough Cuts 2013’ just says all that, but a bit shorter. 14 tracks and a bonus DJ mix! Such a mix always comes in handy, when you’re playing somewhere, but you need to go to the toilet. It’s more than an hour of the best music, so, after your toilet visit, go and talk to that nice person, who has been staring at you from the bar!  Brag about your mixing skills, by saying that you don’t need to be behind the decks to still mix perfectly. It’s just the perfect compilation for everyones need and joy. A few golden oldies mixed with some brand new stuff. These exclusive new tracks from projects like Tetraflux and MRE, will all have their own release in the near future, with and without remixes…all and more reason to get your copy now and hold on to it forever!    Rough Cut Records is a sublabel of Touché Records

Loophole’s Blast From The Past

Touché legend Loophole gives us 5 beautiful tracks, that brings us back to earlier days of techno.

Press release:

Loophole, for those who haven’t paid attention, is one of the glory projects on the famous Touché Records. With a beautiful release on Repressure Recordings in 2012, Loophole had a respectful return to the scene. Now finally back to where it all started, Rough Cut Records. Back in the nineties this was a project suitable for the strange outcast label like Rough Cut, but instead it was signed to it’s pretty sister Touché Records. The weird and sometimes hard techno was well appreciated by the Touché in croud, but Rough Cut Records was never forgotten. Now in 2013 it’s back where it belongs. The Blast From The Past EP is one big trip through memory lane, when house music was still house music and soul and warmth where big ingredients for a nice night out. Get inide the music and let it sweep you along the banks of house music. Give yourself for Loophole…


Kompressor signs to Rough Cut Records

Kompressor signs to Rough Cut Records with his Space Wars EP.

Press release:

Active in the dance scene from the early nineties, H.P. Vince knows how to make music. Together with Jamez, he was responsible for the famous P.I.M.P. project on Touché records. Numerous vinyl EP´s were released as P.I.M.P. with the track ´The Light´ as an instant classic in 1994. H.P. Vince is a versatile producer if it comes to styles. Techno and trance are his biggest love. His trance releases with the Bonzai clan are countless. With Kompressor he´s combining his two lovers and turns it a all up a notch harder. After a break from his first releases around 10 years ago, Kompressor is back!

Underground Baseheads – Crossed EP

Back from the nineties, the Baseheads are back. First EP in 14 years is this Crossed EP. Fat beats and a spot on house flavour.

Press release:
After 15 years, Underground Baseheads are back with a new single. Raw and underground, the Baseheads still know how to produce good house music. The track Crossed is a mix between filter disco and Dutch electro house, the track Over is more tech house and while it all sounds dated maybe, who cares, the Baseheads are back to rumble, let’s go!!!

Buy it here on Beatport.

New Rough Cut release out soon

After 10 years, I revitalized my Rough Cut label. When sales went down in 1999 and I had to spend more time on my album on Mute / Future Groove, I stopped the label. With 18 releases from me and other artists, Rough Cut had grown into a real underground techno label, where experiments, distortion, techno and all kinds of styles came together. Last year I decided to restart the label. With new technologies and the digital age it has all become way to easy to release your own music. While everyone is bitching about all the crap that is been released, the crap just keeps on finding it’s way to the surface. Everyone is bitching about the clubscene and the mass amount of wannabee DJ’s, but no one seems to stop them from playing. These DJ’s even become arrogant enough to think they are actually good DJ’s…..damn….It’s just become to easy to participate. A shame, because not everyone is a producer or DJ. It’s the same if there would be a tool, which would make it very easy to plaster. Because there is still money to be made, everyone buys this tool and now think they can plaster. But no boys and girls…..please stop and start looking for another job and let the grown ups do their work. You are ruining the scene for people who do know what they are doing….

Back to Rough Cut records….I’m planning more releases this year and one or maybe two compilation albums. I already started working on remixes from the old catalogue.

Next release on Rough Cut is Jamez – Glock EP. With remixes from MRE and Fortress. I could say, these remixers are big names that had big releases on Superstition and Alphabet City in the nineties. And..that’s true, but Fortress and MRE are two aliases from me. I have over 40 aliases so I can choose 😉

So release soon, here a few snippets, enjoy:

Jamez – Glock (MRE’s Deep Edge Remix)

Jamez – Percize (Fortress Remix)

cheers everyone!

 

P.I.M.P. new release

There´s a new release out on Rough Cut Records. P.I.M.P. -Freak Out. I started this project back in 1995, together with H.P. Vince. Our first release on Touché records was The Light and is still a classic today. After that came more releases on Touché and later on Alien Records. In 2003 we released our last single, called Ekkovibe. now, in 2011, we’re back with a hard banging techno track on my own label Rough Cut. Remixes by me, me and me. Or in other words. The Jamez’s Burnout Remix. The Loophole’s Deep Remix and the J.Roks Vocal Remix. Loophole is my techno project on Touché Records and J.Roks is my elektro project. Sometimes it’s good to have 40 and more aliases 😉

Rough Cut release Under Construction EP

Also available is my new release on Rough Cut records. The Under Construction EP is a 5 track mini album with some new, some old and some reworked tracks. So is ‘Drop’ finally out and available. I made this track some 4 years ago and got a lot of response. Now reworked for 2011, it’s out and ready to be bought 😉

The whole EP is a combination of the old techno sound wrapped in a modern feel. Probably only interesting for real technoheads and not suitable for 125 bpm minimal tech fans….but hey….give it a listen and decide for yourself…
