Having grown up under the wing of classic 1990's deep house music, slow to speak's Paul Nickerson and Francis Englehardt created the CORE reissue series to highlight what they felt were some of the most striking examples of underground club music at its finest. Initially a reissue series of limited 12"s, the committed classic house devotees have put together here a comprehensive selection reflecting the peak of the US house music Enlightenment in their first CD compilation of unmixed CORE staples. From the dark and alluring track excursions of New York City's most debauched dancefloors to the ethereal and sophisticated forays into soul and jazz music's intricate instrumental arrangements; from the Garage's full-force vocal house inheritors to refreshing and unstoppably catchy exercises in 90's R&B/House music hybridism, "CORE" offers a balanced and complete palate of brilliant, eternal deep house landmarks from club culture's glory years. Featuring obscure and overlooked masterpieces from Blaze, DJ Duke, Todd Terry, Mood II Swing and more, "CORE" has been curated and lovingly presented in the hopes that the disconnect between past accomplishments and present fascinations can be bridged, with the sincere hope that these unique examples of that special and unrepeatable era will drive a new generation of dance music pioneers to create their own inspired acts of sublime musical revelation.
