Laid Compilation
Label:
LAID (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$15.50
Catalog #:
LAID 001CD
After 10 vinyl-only singles the Dial sub-label Laid releases a selection of essential house music masterpieces for the first time on CD. Since Dial brought up its eccentric family business in 2000, the love for true house music was always one main inspiration. Highly inspired by the U.S.-based music, a label was needed to be the cosmopolitan sister of Dial. Inviting protagonists like
Jus-Ed
,
Keith Worthy
,
Patrice Scott
,
Fred P.
and many others from the United States to the legendary Dial Allnighters, exchanging tracks and ideas, and launching a thousand DJ sets worldwide, this is where the concept for Laid was built. It began in May 2009 with Detroit legend
Rick Wade
-- a very classical start. Followed by tracks and 12"s by artists like
John Roberts
, Fred P.,
Marcello Napolitano
,
Lowtec
,
Christopher Rau
and many more, Laid has fulfilled a whole range of styles from traditional to contemporary, from sweet to dark, from clean to rough. Here is a compilation that shows how deep, fresh and colorful the Laid sound still is. House music is here to stay. Other artists include:
Lawrence
,
RNDM
,
Smallpeople
,
Kassem Mosse
and
Black Jazz Consortium
.

LAID 001EP
"We are pleased to announce Rick Wade's
Intelligence
, the first release of our new sublabel Laid. With the help of Dor Levi we are starting this new series of 12 inches -- available on vinyl only. We dedicate this new imprint to musicians we have been fans and followers of since many, many years. People who inspired us (and still do), whose records we love to play, collect and occasionally quote. But Laid would not be part of Dial if it didn't have the same subscription to the now and a certain openness for all potential kicks and turns. Please welcome with us Mr. Rick Wade. The Detroit-based founder of Harmony Park, one of our favourite record labels (remember Mike Huckaby's debut --
Deep Transportation
) and outstanding producer of countless releases on labels like Track Mode, Moods & Grooves, Rush Hour etc. For the first catalogue number of Laid, Rick produced three tracks that are contemporary deep house music in perfection. Enjoy!"

LAID 002EP
"We are delighted to announce Rndm's
Third Hand Smoke
, the debut single of Oliver Kargl, continuing Dial's latest adventure in music publishing, also known as Laid. The Berlin-based second half of highly the acclaimed techno duo Pigon (with Efdemin) delivers his oldschool US house-inspired version of today's club music effortless and without hesitation. Rndm is certainly not afraid of inheriting his personal favourites just like
Third Hand Smoke
. Yalla! A special bonus on this record is Rndm's premix of the forthcoming Laid 004 by John Roberts. Enjoy everybody!"

Catalog #:
LAID 003EP
"We are excited to announce Rick Wade's 'First Darkness,' the third release on our newborn vinyl-only sublabel that twists us around these days like nothing else in this world. After the tremendous success of Rick's debut on Laid 01 --
Intelligence
-- which had been a great kick off for our new imprint we couldn't help but wonder:
'Were we all in fact just dating the same person over and over again?'
But anyways here is just another wonderful record of one of our all time favourite producers, Mr. Rick Wade. As you can sense from the title, Rick Wade once more employs some of his darker signature synths lines in the main track that provide a glorious sparkle of sublime atmosphere over a percussive rhythm construction that kicks from all sides."

Never As Always (Pt. 1)
