House label Quintessentials celebrates 100 releases on 24th April, with a six-track 2×12″ and ten-track digital compilation featuring Ralph Session, Mat Chiavsrtoli, Shaka, Borrowed Identity, Simoncino, Marcus Paulson, Andy Ash, Simon Hinter, Peter Raou and Black Fan.
‘It’s with great pleasure that we present the 100th release of Quintessentials! Happy 100! Started in 2008, Quintessentials` slogan was and still is “deep, raw and real“. On the way to the 100th release, we discovered talents like (just to name but a few…) Anton Zap, Baaz, Ugly Drums, Mat Chiavaroli, Simon Hinter or The Black Fan, as well as featuring established producers like Luke Solomon (as Lukatron), Borrowed Identity, Alton Miller, Simoncino, Soul of Hex, Felipe Gordon, Javonntte, KRL, Andy Ash or Ralph Session. Quintessentials has never just released stricly one type of music, but put together cool tunes from the House spectrum: Deep House, NY House, Detroit House, Acid House, Chicago House….or do we wanna call it just “House music”? This classic old school 6-track compilation (with the digital version offering 4 tasty bonus cuts) features again a multi house culture and fuses present and past! Quite essential we think!’
