CAT: Quintesse100

It is with great pleasure that we present Quintessentials' 100th release. Happy 100!

Since its inception in 2008, Quintessentials' motto has been and remains “deep, raw and real”. On the way to this 100th edition, the label discovered talents such as Anton Zap, Baaz, Ugly Drums, Mat Chiavaroli, Simon Hinter or The Black Fan, in addition to featuring established producers such as Luke Solomon (under the alias Lukatron), Borrowed Identity, Alton Miller, Simoncino, Soul of Hex, Felipe Gordon, Javonntte, KRL, Andy Ash and Ralph Session.

Quintessentials has never limited itself to releasing only one type of music, but has brought together great tracks from across the house spectrum: Deep House, NY House, Detroit House, Acid House, Chicago House... or should we just call it “House music”?

This classic six-track old-school compilation (with the digital version offering four delicious bonus cuts) once again represents a diverse house culture, merging past and present. Quite essential, if you ask us.
