The good news is that Toolroom has not only survived but is launching a new sub-label, LEADERS OF THE NEW SCHOOL. Singles are in the post as they would say over in England. This according to the label's latest press release. I know a lot of folks weren't down with the Dubfire singles that came out this summer including "Ribcage" on Toolroom, dismissing them as "booty minimal" and worse. Personally I got the feeling his heart was really in the right place and hey I live in a podunk college town so what's wrong with the occasional foray into some booty? That's called being a DJ and knowing your crowd. The latest from the John Dahlback's alias Kaliber tore it up when I spun last weekend, I know the drunken masses here love booty minimal. The Mark Knight remix on that single actually spanned the more booty tendencies with some deeper underground sounds fairly well. I am hoping that this new sub-label will continue favoring this trend. We wish them well in these troubling times....
