RH 111CD
|
Rick Wilhite and his Vibes New&Rare Music record store have been a main source in Detroit for over 17 years. His store is the place to go for many Detroiters looking for new soulful, electronic music, and as a DJ and promoter, Rick has been holding it down for years. Next to that, he is also mostly known for his affiliation with Three Chairs (together with Kenny Dixon Jr. & Theo Parrish) and for his solo recordings under his The Godson pseudonym. Now it's time for Rick to get his peers and friends in the mix for his first compilation, aptly-titled Vibes New&Rare Music. This compilation CD contains exclusive tracks and features only the best of Chicago and Detroit electronic music. All tracks are new and exclusive. Featuring the cream of the crop of the Chicago and Detroit house scene, all the usual suspects are present here as well as some new cats with some of their best work. Besides household names like Theo Parrish, Glenn Underground, Marcellus Pittman and Rick himself (as The Godson), new names like Ricardo Miranda, Derwyn Hall and Marc King (more or less) debut on this release. Man-of-the-moment Kyle Hall is also featured with two tracks he did when he was only 15, and Vincent Halliburton is here also, known for his material on Ferris Park. The bonus here has to be the very special Urban Tribe line up: Carl Craig, Kenny Dixon, Anthony "Shake" Shakir and original tribester Sherard Ingram. A special treat, indeed. This an essential purchase for those who are into anything house and/or Detroit and Chicago.

The fifth and last EP in the Vibes series features 3 tracks by new recording artists from Detroit. First up is Mark King, who gives us an emotive, deeply soulful vocal workout that lasts close to nine minutes. Detroiter DJ Raybone teams up with TJ as well as Rick Wilhite for two more deep Detroit late-night house tracks. The B-side tracks are exclusive to this 12" and won't be on the CD release.

RH 111C-EP
|
This is the third release in Rick Wilhite's Vibes New& Rare Music compilation, a get-together between Rick and Kyle Hall. Kyle hits it hard with "After Fall." Have you ever tried head-banging to disco music? If not, now is the time. "The Godson" eases down a little and lifts the classic "Love & Happiness" a cappella to work it into a hypnotic groove. The third track sees Kyle and Rick teaming up, delivering a futuristic piece of jazz techno, 22nd-century shit.

RH 111D-EP
|
This is the fourth release in Rick Wilhite's Vibes New&Rare Music compilation, and it doesn't take a genius to work out who was leading the tribe on this one. This 12" contains a track by Urban Tribe (Carl Craig, Kenny Dixon Jr., Anthony "Shake" Shakir and Sherard Ingram) and the flip contains a Rick Wilhite remix of the classic '90s Urban Tribe production, D2000 (originally a one-sided 12"on Mo Wax). BIG RECORD.

RH 111B-EP
|
This is the second release in Rick Wilhite's Vibes New& Rare Music compilation. Fellow 3 Chairs producer Theo Parrish starts out on a blues tip, then morphs his track into a string-laden jazz affair without missing a beat. It's a one-way ride to Chicago with Ricardo Miranda blasting on the car stereo -- his track kicks off soulful, and yet so raw, reminiscent of the best days of Prescription Underground, on which this easily could have been released. Addictive.
