The Shapeshifters In The House

The Shapeshifters know a thing or two around rocking the dancefloor. As globetrotting DJs, studio craftsmen, musical connoisseurs and all-around party hoi polloi, the London-based duo of Simon Marlin and Max Reich are at the top of their secret plan as their contribution to the �In the House� series wonderfully illustrates.

Since GenQ last spoke to the lads back in �07, The Shapeshifters have institute a new home at Defected Records & this is their debut mix cd for the tag. Best known for their UK #1 single Lola's Theme and more late �A New Day� the boys are currently at the top of their game once more with the release of their newest single, the brilliant cover of Orbitals �Chime' whose accompanying video is a tribute to 20 years of Acid House and future attain �Treadstone' which have in spades got the dance storey hyped at the moment.

Treadstone has Shapeshifters written all over it, with the familiar introduction that leads into a sexy electro house groove and a powerful galvanising guitar rupture in the middle. Being a vocal house fan, I�d love to see what they could do with some female vocals thrown in for good measure.

CD1 meshes a great number of styles with soulful artists like Grant Nelson and John Julius Knight connection the European new multiply of electronic producers like Mike Monday and Nic Fanciulli�s Skylark project. We�re talking underground, tech-edged beat generation and wheeling grooves that build into high-octane house for the modern discoth�que.

CD2�sees the guys utilise an array of club music combining 2008 reworkings of classics like �Hideaway�, �Bad Habit� and �I�ll House You� with the freshest new sign of the zodiac cuts from the likes of Dirty South, Axwell, Bob Sinclar, John Dahlback. Fedde le Grand and Funkerman�s �Three Miniutes to Explain� is a standout, a personal favourite of 2008.

Multi-layered mega-mixes are as well included in the musical array, as the boys mesh the likes of The Freaks, Sandy Rivera, Grand High Priest and Soul Creation to provide some uplifting variance on popular dance tracks. In addition, Disc 2 features the inclusion of �Shapeshifters own summer �08 dash �Chime� and future hit �Treadstone�.

Shapeshifters acknowledge that it�s not just about the here and now, a vital mindset for whatever dj/producer. The third �Inspirations� CD is allowance for the boys to luxuriate listeners with a excerption of music that get influenced and inspired them along the way. Artists on the disc include Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Hall & Oates,�Patrice Rushen, Last Rhythm and Tears For Fears and all songs ar unmixed. I have to say that I like the boy�s style, on the turntables and at the heart strings. They come up trumps with songs to savour that reach deep into dance music�s rich heritage and also bring back memories along the way.

The Shapeshifters In The House is the perfect accompaniment to the heater weather and �spring� in every house music fans step. Something to savour on each disc, I recommend getting your ears around it very soon.

Bob Dylan - Dylan At Center Of Memorabilia Dealers Legal Battle

Legendary singer/songwriter BOB DYLAN is at the centre of a bitter legal battle between dealers of the rocker's relics and a man they say has sold them false artifacts.

New York resident Peter MCKenzie - whose famous mother, dancer Martha Graham, and father MAC, supported Dylan before he rose to stardom in the 1960s - is being targeted in separate lawsuits by a pair of Dylan memorabilia dealers who claim he sold them forged items for over $80,000 (GBP40,000).

But MCKenzie is claiming the accusations made by dealers Reed Orenstein and Jeffrey Gold that the items - which include a harmonica, a Harry Belafonte album cover autographed by Dylan and a sheet of lyrics - came only after they were unable to sell their Dylan relics at inflated prices.

MCKenzie has since filed a countersuit asking for $200,000 (GBP100,000) in damages, claiming defamation in the documents filed on 12 June (08).

He says, "(Gold) had a hard time selling his memorabilia and now he wants his money back."

Meanwhile, Reed Orenstein is seeking $40,000 (GBP20,000) in a suit filed with the Manhattan Supreme Court just last week (begs16Jun08), claiming he was also unable to sell the folk legend's artifacts sold to him by MCKenzie.

MCKenzie, 61, was 12 at the time of Dylan's arrival to his home from Minnesota in 1961.

He held on to much of the memorabilia left from the rocker's stay, and alleges he began selling the relics in 1991 with the permission of the iconic folk crooner.
