Artist: RONDENION
Title: Devotion
Label: FACES RECORDS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.50
Catalog #: FACES 1211EP
Killer three-tracker from this Tokyo-based house king, jamming between the fringes of hypnotic disco to soulful house. The reach of Rondenion is consistent and impressive, releasing stand-out productions over the years on great labels such as Still Music, Rush Hour, Aesthetic and Bosconi and his own imprint Ragrange Records. Big tip for fans of soulful house, a splash of Andrés, a twist of Moodymann and a shake and stir of truly dope original Rondenion signature sounds. Limited to 500 copies worldwide.


Artist: RONDENION
Title: Dark Adaption EP
Label: RUSH HOUR (NETHERLANDS)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.50
Catalog #: RH R2EP
Dark Adaption is Rondenion's second EP for Rush Hour. The freestyle disco cut-up "Sun Glare" nicely sets the mood here and is a must-have for Detroit house lovers. "Blue Canal" shows a deeper side of Rondenion; a bluesy, mid-tempo groove that sticks. The title track gives way to, well, Rondenion's darker side -- a hypnotic and mean cut that really builds and reminds of Theo Parrish's rawer tracks. Banging!


Artist: RONDENION
Title: Tokyo Story
Label: STILL MUSIC
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: STILLM 014EP
"Discovered by Still Music, Hirofumi Goto aka Rondenion has been causing some serious waves since Blue Rhodes Dances, his first release for us. Heavy is the word for the first track on this stunning EP. In a precise beatdown house mood crossing over with funky hip hop, 'Necessary One For Me' is a dancefloor killer, the bassline is loud and the beat intense. A2 sees Rondenion dropping a 7-minute plus journey into funk, jazz and soul. Another one that will bring us straight to the sound of KDJ, Theo Parrish and the 3 Chairs. Still with a killer house beat, 'Aging New Style' is hypnotic, the vocal riffs, the organ sound paired with the funkiest harpsichord are essential for this demonstration in groove. On B1, Rondenion pushes the envelope forward with a jazz infused joint. 'Tokyo Story' starts with a truly insane vibraphone hook that brings so much swing into this house cut lifted by a deep jazz guitar riff. Another one for the Detroit heads."
