Global Caress 45 Bundle

Serious A - Diagonal Wave / Sogno Blu

Parisian house priestess Serious A makes her Star Creature / Global Caress debut with a deeply dreamy, waved out two-sider. Where as a majority of the Global Caress Imprint has a strong bend towards early Windy City influences, this record falls into Chicago as a landing place somewhere between Detroit and Vancouver - an amazing sound one might mistake for a lost Mood Hut 12" or unreleased Marcellus Pittman white label. An ethereal and vaporous strand of synthesizer wobble dipped into a funky hypnosis bath. Highly serious yet highly fun, these tracks are guaranteed to make them bounce. 

ManooZ - Jack The Bass / Time 4 Houze!

In the beginning there was Jack, and in 2026 he is back and fittingly to arriving out of The Windy City. Germany’s ManooZ dials in a big one for Chicago’s Star Creature label under the increasingly impressive Global Caress imprint. Heavyweight hardware house music that sounds like a teleportation device to 1988 with enough power to blast through even the deadest floors of the modern era. “Jack The Bass” kicks off the A Side with a hypnotic command that proves impossible to deny followed by the frenzied “Time 4 Houze!” with possibly the best set of lyrics in a house track of all time.

Fugitive Artifact - Get Some Rest / In Service To Jack

2 Reasons to Jack: The debut vinyl release from NYC’s Fugitive Artifact is a twisted tribute to the primitive sounds of The Windy City. Fiercely minimal, old-school house music that leaves only 1 option: Jack. Punk Out Cuts, taking cues from Fingers Inc., Legowelt and Mike Dunn, Fugitive Artifact occupies the heady space surrounding the hard and deep sounds of embryonic Chicago House. Fugitive Artifact practices a hypnotic exercise in restraint, building a dark, trance-like world around the simplicity of a MPC1000, Roland D-05 and Korg MicroStation.
