This week's update is up and online now at Primalrecords.com, and once again, we're talking about almost 100 new titles here. First and foremost of the bunch are the brand new and totally exclusive white label promo copies of the next release for our PR2 Recordings imprint: Wyatt Earp & DJ Foxx present The Emerson EP. I cannot even tell you how excited I am about this one. The tests sound fantastic and the early response is already off to a rousing start. Get it here, and only here, first.
Also exclusive (and equally as exciting) is the latest promo goodie from our friends in the OM Records crew, and this one is no joke: Afro-Mystic's "Natural," remixed here by Halo Varga and Kaskade! This is a must-hear, for sure, and as always, our limited promo supply is first-come, first-serve.
Also worth noting is a full restock of Jamayka's latest on white label, The Soul Providers' After Dark EP. If you missed this one the first time around, now's your chance to get your hands on this energetic tribal tech-houser. Full release copies are still many weeks away on this one as well.
It struck me this morning that it was probably time for another session of Primalrecords.com House Music Haiku. (I've been seeing some other folks trying their hands on this online, but let it be known, we did it first!) Here are this week's picks, waxed poetically:
WYATT EARP & DJ FOXX "The Emerson EP" PR2 Recordings (Promo) [House, Tech-house, Tribal]
What better way of saying,
"I love this record."
Than to put it out?

And don't forget hot restock material from Soul Providers on Jamayka, Jay Tripwire on Warbled Music, Kaskade and their uber-fantastic "It's You, It's Me" single, the much-in-demand Sheila The Freak! EP from Loose Screws and Jonny Kaboom for Sunny Day, and a full catalog restock courtesy of our Philadelphia friends from Worship Recordings.
Lots to be excited about then. Get to it!
