-// ABOUT THE LABEL //- Quarterlife Records NYC is a New York City-based independent record label. Quarterlife Records focuses on finding, releasing and pushing a distinct spectrum of sounds from the dance music underground - on one end, the pounding beats of tough, gritty in-your-face electro house music… on the other end, the smooth, sophisticated, intelligent polished beats of deep progressive house… and the narrow niche in between. Quarterlife Records seeks to innovate the genre and challenge listeners with non-formulaic approaches to house music, to provide a platform for emerging artists to be heard, and to serve as a vehicle to propel established artists further up the charts. The common denominator between releases is the quality of production, attention to detail, and adherence to the aesthetic that Quarterlife embodies – the bangin’ electro sound of underground New York City that makes ‘em throw their hands up. The label’s logo activates the concept: the universal power symbol, tilted to form a “Q”, symbolizing the energy that’s captured in its edgy music. Aside from its prolific releases, the label also focuses its energy into the parties that it produces or endorses in the New York City club scene and around the world. Quarterlife Records digital releases can be purchased from the world’s finest digital retailers including Beatport, iTunes, eMusic, Dance Tracks Digital, Amazon.com, Rhapsody, Napster, Juno, and so forth.

Quarterlife Records NYC is owned and operated by veteran DJ/producer/remixers DJ EBAR and Alex Pearce . -// CONTACT US //- email: info@quarterlifenyc.com fax (USA): 646-224-8253 -// ARTIST SUBMISSIONS //- Artists may submit tracks for consideration by uploading your mp3 file to our submission dropbox at: http://upload.youload.load.com/tJWoS5qZrKeIr!AXLErZkg==/ -// NEW MUSIC //- The Bit Crushers is the unstoppable duo of NYC producers DJ Fame (Sullivan Room) and Gaby Dershin (Astro&Glyde), up to their low-down dirty antics once again with this underground electro-house smoker! The track features features a filthy distorted bassline, a warbling mid-range filtered tone, and the Bit Crushers signature cut/paste vocal stabs. Plenty of surprises around every corner of this arrangement too, and a decidedly big-room rave-ish feel on some of the minor chords peeking through the pounding kicks. Miami club DJ and scene stalwart Gabriel Robella picks up the remix and delivers a decidedly more South Beach interpretation. This is a tribal-tech monster with some really massive drums, big white-noise washes, and more peaks and valleys than a Disneyland rollercoaster! This is one NYC-based producer that is turning heads lately. John Digweed protege, Chris Fortier collaborator, and Olaris Records boss Royal Sapien returns to Quarterlife Records NYC with a progressive journey entitled Everything I Love Is Underground. Somber moody notes are plucking over an rough old-school progressive bassline with plenty of arpeggios and washes to keep things fluid an glued together. Indicant's remix brings a more dirty small-floor underground electro-house feel with a massive contorting stereo bassline that just oozes acidic dirt. Gated vocal snips graze over vintage low-bit synths with the ever-increasing fever pitch of an unusual filtered white noise arpeggio. Alex Pearce rounds out the release with a more melancholy and progressive interpretation that features an oddly-timed bassline, Spartan percussives and energetic washes. Lots of 16 note modulating riffs give this remix its go-go-juice. Veteran New York City DJ/producer DJ Eco graces Quarterlife Records with a fierce 3-track EP that is sure to have a little something for everyone! Whitebox starts out with a bit of a chuggy electro-house feel and morphs into a beautiful melodic progressive piece for the big-floor that has little surprises around every corner. Pumping pads and washes fill out the meat of this track. Blackbox is pure evil electro-house! This dark monster has jagged and furious sounds with a huge sub-bassline... floor-filler material for your peak. Redbox rides the line between tech-house and electro-house with a relentless glitchy vibe, plenty of distorted elements, and a loose shaky drum section. The innovative breakdown puts you into a British sci-fi show from the 1970's... magic!
