dusty house room 4 out now!
over the past twelve months, rejected have seen their super successful ‘dusty house’ series become the catalyst for a reemergence of the filtered house sound. with joris voorn’s ‘sweep the floor’ ruling the summer of 2009, and nic fanciulli’s ‘feed the freezer’ dominating the winter months, its time for us to enter la maison once again, this time to visit ‘room 4′. room 4 is occupied by edwin oosterwal, co-owner of both rejected and green imprints alongside joris voorn. our move from room 3 to 4 is seamless, and this is down to the sheer quality of oosterwal’s productions. ‘scrub the tub’ with its crowd baiting piano riff and floor shattering bassline is a certain smash. as is ‘beat the dirt’ on the flip with its disco flavoured, funk guitar mastery.

nic fanciulli hosts dusty house room 3!
Undoubtedly one of the successes of 2009, Rejected’s ‘Dusty House’ series rolls into town with its latest installment, and this time the Dutch label has invited a new artist on board: Nic Fanciulli. With the incredible success of tracks like ‘Sweep The Floor’ and ‘Chase The Mouse’, the series has found world wide DJ, Radio and Chart support, for its exciting brand of powerfully charged house. Sometimes filtered, sometimes disco, but always fueled by funk, it is a brave man who takes on the challenge of hosting a room at the ‘Dusty House’. Take it on he has. Fanciulli has fitted the function one, built the lighting rig, hooked up the smoke machine, and he’s even gone and supplied a free bar. All to create the perfect setting for these two prime cuts of filtered goodness. ‘Feed The Freezer’ has been hugging the disco ball, where as ‘Work The Week’ has been getting friendly with the Latin chick who’s been samba-ing over the in the corner all night. Both are perfect additions to a Dusty House that with each room is becoming one hell of a party venue!!
