All I Need (Terry Farley & Kevin Swain 'Angels Take Control Remix') INFO New year, new energy, new music... We™re all waiting for that tune to land in our lap, reach up and slap us simultaneously in the ears, feels, souls and feet. That big sonic blast of emotion and inspiration that sets the tone and gets us excited about a new season of shows. Hard Times Records present ˜All I Need™, a powerful, slab of house music positivity that smacks of ˜first anthem of the year™ vibes and comes courtesy of one of house music™s biggest pioneers AND a certified UK House music institution that permanently changed the face of global club culture over 30 years ago... Steve ˜Silk™ Hurley and Hard Times. Neither Hurley or Hard Times need any introductions, but both have histories that deserve so much more than this hype-fuelled promo blurb. Steve ˜Silk™ Hurley is a certified legend. As one of the pioneering House music artists to emerge from Chicago™s primordial 80s phenomenon and the first ever to score a UK number one Hit with ˜Jack Your Body™, the multiple Grammy nominated artist has been a powerful source of energy and inspiration ever since as one of the most consistent forefathers of this scene. Hard Times have played an equally influential role and are arguably responsible for some of the most defining moments in uk House Music. One of the first club nights to import the US titans to UK dancefloors, the Yorkshire brand were instrumental in creating a blueprint in international DJ culture as they invited the biggest pioneers and legends to their events that began in the sleepy town of Mirfield, but eventually sprawled across the UK with line-ups that ranged from Todd Terry to Masters at Work to Deep Dish and every titan in between. A dominant force throughout the 90s, Hard Times wound down in the 2000s as its founder Steve Raine took a break from the industry to become a sheep farmer, which he still does to this day... Safe in the knowledge that he helped to create an ethos for uncompromising underground House Music that remains steadfast to this Day. The Hard Times label originated back in 1994 And ran alongside the club night, boasting a small but elite catalogue. It™s about to thrive on a whole new level as Hard Times returns as a label with its first new material for over 20 years with ˜All I Need™. Timeless yet forward-thinking, loaded to the brim with precision groovemanship, glazed with a strong Latin twist and sprinkled with the gorgeous vocals of Sara Garvey, who many will instantly recognise from her Nightmares On Wax collaborations, ˜All I Need™ is a pedigree house anthem-in-waiting. Universal in vibe and spirit, fully transcending trend or flavour-of-the-month fickleness, this taps into the source and has full potential to be the first big boundary-breaking house hit of 2023... 36 years after Steve ˜Silk™ Hurley topped the charts with ˜Jack Your Body™! It comes complete with a rainbow of remixes from some equally eye-opening heavyweights: Alex Arnout, Eddie Leader, Terry Farley & Kevin Swain and DJ Skip (who runs S&S Records with ˜Hurley) all provide different perspectives on ˜All I Need™, giving it even more scope and depth to slap us simultaneously.
