A bunch of filthy house records are coming back on wax.

Dance Mania will reissue a clutch of vintage tracks over the next few weeks, starting with a remastered version of Hercules’ ‘7 Ways’, the 1986 house classic by Marshall Jefferson, with two new remixes from Jammin Gerald on the B-side.

In February, the Chicago label will also reissue two EPs by ghetto house original Paul Johnson, 11 PM Music/2 AM Music and Sex Crazed/Track Happy, plus Parris Mitchell’s Butter Fly EP.

Parris Mitchell recently looked back on the birth of house for an illuminating conversation with Mr Beatnick.
