Reviews & Discussion
Downbeat borns from the efforts of F-on, Urtzi and Jose Rico.
Firstly, Downbeat started with the format of “party”. Several artists took part of downbeat parties: Mike Huckaby, Patrice Scott, Ksoul, Keith Worthy, Juju & Jordash and Rick Wade.
They are parties full of deep house with soul; and Now we want to crystallize
this spirit in a record label.
Downbeat is slow and hypnotic deep house, music with soul, and a big respect for black music.
Downbeat wants to be a tribute to American house music, House music from Chicago, and house music from Detroit. Downbeat takes influence of producers and artists like
Moodymann, Theo Parrish, Larry Heard, Rick Wilhite, Mike Huckaby, Specter, Juju & Jordah, Rick Wade, Mike Grant, Ron Trent, Kai Alcé, Kevin Reynolds, Alton Miller, Marcellus Pittmann, Damon Lamar ... and what Omar-S called “Motown Minimal Sound”.
In addition, it takes influences of classics of the black music , Kraftwerk, dub music, or experimental music.
D loves house music and we love the vinyl. So, D wants to claim the vinyl as the leader format for dance music. For this reason, D will edit only in limited series of vinyles.
