why is this record in the top 5 Recommendations of almost every freaking house record I look at on this site?? This record is... very good, OK!shout out to Sound Stream "Live" Goes On, Floatingpoints "Vacuum EP" and Motor City Drum Ensemble's "Raw Cuts #5"!! Thanks for the Recommendations, discogs! :D

same here man lol it's always these records in the recommendations

Discogs brought me here . . . . . .

Timeless tracks. I could listen to it every day, no doubt!

Listening to too many things brings me to like a tune, forgetting about it, hearing another tune that has the same sample but it's drum n bass (Utah Jazz "Growth Comes"), being obsessed on thinking that maybe I heard the string samples in a house tune, coming across one dj in Corsica Studios that played it, not being able to shazam it in time, and spend several weeks thinking of house I've listened to during the later years. Until today I finally found the piece.Overrated? Only if you got tired of music.

The algorithm likes it, some other people like it, but it isn't really worth this much money as of today.

Always wondered why this went to become so immensely popular and sold in bucketloads? One of the (If not THE) most sold 12" in 2012.

You weren't around then????? Are you only 5 or 6 years old son? :)

ijustspeak Always wondered why this went to become so immensely popular and sold in bucketloads? One of the (If not THE) most sold 12" in 2012. Has to be somewhat due to being the closing track on Panoramabar 04, which was released mid-2012. I wasn't around then, but I'm guessing all things berghain/ostgut were highlighted pretty heavily by RA and the wider press by that point.

Really, lowest one for sale is €22 now? I'd say downloading a shoddy mp3 is more respectful to the producer than shelling out to these overfed sharks.

I totally agree! (please enter at least 7 more words)

An observation: 4775 people on discogs have this, and the lowest price so far was €18.51 - 40 people are selling it right now, and still the lowest asking price is €18.00. Not "hating", but that's incredible.

Monster record bought it for New for u when it first came out but now Drama Around The Corner gets a spin everytime

every single time i open discogs, it just recommends me this record (which i already have since when it was released). Is funny to read some people saying is a little over-rated. It's not over rated, it just looks like discogs is obsessed with it :)

Why are these mixes MONO? Anybody know anything about that?

Andrés still use a MPC and SP 1200 samplers according to some interviews, the sp, and some mpcs sample in mono. That can be a reason maybe

There are literally THOUSANDS of club/house/disco/techno/electro records that work on club systems, and also happen to be in STEREO.

Maybe the tracks are designed to work 100% on club systems, just a random guess.

New For U. What a start to a label founded by a man of such calibre. The title track for sure is what most would buy the record for, but the B-side is just as good. Drama Around The Corner is another chilled out groove for a nice downtempo mix, while Jazz Dance is just mind-blowing. Not sure what genre it would come under, but it doesn't matter, as it is yet another enjoyable track on this record. For all the hype this release has produced, I'm surprised the prices are still below 15 euros. Snap 'em up quick!

Does anyone know what the vocal snippet is saying in New For U? People who call Dez's boring don't appreciate his basslines I think, one of my favorite producers period, and this is my favorite release of his. Not cuts that will slay a packed dancefloor, but for chilling at home with a blunt, or early on in a set A1 or A2 both bring proper vibes

I think it says "Time for new" 1 2 3

For such a HUGE seller, I don't think it's spectacular. I mean there are incredible records like "Bermuda" by Harvey Sutherland that are musically stronger, yet not nearly as popular.

I JUST find that such a mediocre record selling in such high numbers, compared to a Masterpiece like "Bermuda" is mind-boggling.

I don't think popularity in selling numbers is a legit indication of something being good or bad. First of all the artist can't help it and second, I disagree with you music-wise (and I'm a big Harvey Sutherland fan). And lastly, why does it even matter?

It's just repetitive sample-based house. Some people dig it...I just don't.

???????????????? I am just stating that I feel the record is overrated.

what a comment !! ha ha ha ha ha ha !

For such a belend comment, I don't think its spectacular. I mean, there are incredibly bellendish comments, like Hannah Wants 'illegal" Boddika plagiarism comment, that are bellendishly stronger.

im staggered to find one person below described this as a ''yawn fest'' LOL . wtf ???? for me 'New For U' is one of the coolest records around , you can listen to it time after time on repeat and not get bored . amazing track , strings to die for . so yeh for me this is an amazing piece of house music , but i guess everyones different ;)

if you don't care for it then why are you even commenting on this release page in the first place

I like house music, but Andres production style is too sample-based for my taste. And it seems like he mixes in MONO, which I don't care for either.

The song "Jazz dance" samples "dance freak" by Chain Reaction

Is this the best selling house record of all time? I can't find another release in the house realm that has these kinds of ownership stats on it.

Mark_Anthony Is this the best selling house record of all time? I can't find another release in the house realm that has these kinds of ownership stats on it. Check out this list (not updated anymore though): https://www.discogs.com/lists/Top-30-Discogs-Most-Popular-SinglesEPs/2241?page=1&limit=250

Yes!! Good call :0) Truly a bomb I have it in my deep house bag at all times.

check this one https://www.discogs.com/Stardust-Music-Sounds-Better-With-You/release/4087and keep in mind that 50.000 vinyl copies were pressed (and those numbers date from around 1999!)

There was a time when there were no ownership stats or discogs and when you could only buy music on vinyl so no it is definately not the best selling house record of all time...

''Drama Around The Corner'' contains samples of Marvin Gaye - Cleo's Apartment ("Trouble Man" Sndtrk) don't know if anybody noticed that..

I love it when producers don't use samples. What's the point?

I love it when people notice samples!

Bit of a yawn-fest to me. But if that's whats selling these days fair play to him.

Me too. I don't get why it's so popular. There are much better house records out there.

Jazz Dance

I promised myself I would never make one of those "everybody likes ___ track but actually I like ___ track" comments because they generally piss me off... that being said I bought this for New for U but Jazz Dance is a corker as well

this is a true review

haha, and I have always felt Drama Around the Corner was the strongest track of the 3, I love them all, but the kick in Drama.... Nothing can compare to that. Sucha great record.

It takes around 20-30 seconds into "New For U" to realize that it sits next to Deep Burnt and the other tracks that have been mentioned below.And it's not like "oh, you never heard violins in deep house before?". It's on a whole new level. 5 stars, already a classic in my books.

The lead track is quality but the mastering on this record is not up to scratch.Should've pressed New For U on the A side @ 45rpm then the other 2 on side B

Digging all the tracks on this release...saddened that my copy is warped to a point of non-mixable.

you can fix it , by setting it in the sun, and let it cool down with some weight on it...

Ok la Vida is a good record label, and I love this type of House, Deep, very Deep I say. I love the style and so, what... good

Are the original labels cream coloured ? My copy is pure white.. with the black typeface.

The first pressing had cream coloured labels. Quite a few of them had two labels sticking on each other, causing kind of a 'bubble'. It was easily removable, but i guess the pressing plant switched to other paper to avoid this mistake for the following pressings. All pressings since came with a pure white label.

Absolute must have Deep house Traxx of 2012Dj Sneak recently played this track and was blown away,I'm tempted to buy one more copy for the collection!!

I don't like to 'double comment' and fellow reviewer Mark_Anthony already said the essential about "New For U", but I couldn't help sharing my absolute enthusiasm on that one : this tune is in the great tradition of deep orchestral disco-house anthems (think Moodymann's "Third Track", Faze Action's "In The Trees", DJ Sneak's "Show Me The Way" or Sound Stream's "Dance With Me" and obviously Pepe Bradock's "Deep Burnt"), with crafted contemporary electronic production, yet totally in the post-disco filiation courtesy of that wonderful strings sequence (apparently sampled from Dexter Wandel's "Time Is The Teacher", yet totally speeded up and adapted, not just lazily cut-and-pasted ; with sublime extra bassline added). Witnessing such a sensitive yet rough, sensual production reaching anthem status among younger crowds is indeed a blessing and gives hope for the future of house. This is the absolute anti-Swedish House Mafia anthem.

THIS is an amazing review. i love 'new for u' , and also own moodyman , faze action and sneak , so when i saw a track i didnt know i discovered a gem i love cos of you - SOUND STREAM ! thanks mate , its no coincidence that the orig track two tons of fun i own and love already [discovered via dimitri a while back] , a personal favourite that vocal disco orig so i was delighted to discover sound stream . i love stringy house tracks too . one of the best reviews ive read also for the fact i found out a question id always wondered where the sample came from , fascinating to discoer it was dexter . feel free to mention more tracks haha ! ++++++

definitely yesss, I just played last week "neww for u" with "deep burnt" and worked great, top orgasmic tune. That track is awesome cause you can play it everywhere and works good at every hour, from afternoon lounge , to warm up, to middle night to after, just fucking good vibes...

Track A1 is instantly eternal. Those violins, good lord those violins! I'm always such a sucker for good strings and this track absolutely laced with them! First time you play this record you'll feel like you've been listening to it since 1993. Pure uncut house music funk soul. Pure as the driven snow. If you're a house-head and you don't own this, your record collection is always going to be 1 title short of completion :) Best purchase I made in a long time. I feel the same way about this record as I did when I bought Moodymann's Black Mahogani 3xLP: http://www.discogs.com/Moodymann-Black-Mahogani/master/6257

As expected, more quality from Andres. Essential.
