A key piece of early electronic dance music history, this is a record that helped bridge the gap between \u003cstrong\u003eelectro and house\u003c\/strong\u003e and remains hugely influential decades after its original release. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Originally released through legendary New York imprint \u003cstrong\u003eCutting Records\u003c\/strong\u003e, Nitro Deluxe's pivotal \u003cstrong\u003e'Let's Get Brutal'\u003c\/strong\u003e and the subsequent 'This Brutal House' became hugely influential records in the development of early \u003cstrong\u003ehouse music\u003c\/strong\u003e. Blending elements of NYC electro and freestyle with the emerging Chicago house sound, Nitro Deluxe created a distinctive blueprint that would go on to influence generations of producers and DJs. The track was famously sampled by \u003cstrong\u003eKevin Saunderson\u003c\/strong\u003e for Inner City's huge 'Big Fun', while its influence continues to be felt throughout house music today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The original \u003cstrong\u003e'This Brutal House (UK Edit)'\u003c\/strong\u003e captures the raw energy of the 1980s dancefloor, with its unmistakable synth melody, warehouse-ready stabs and electro-driven rhythms. On the flip, \u003cstrong\u003eMark Knight\u003c\/strong\u003e brings the classic firmly into the modern era with \u003cstrong\u003e'Brutal (Extended Mix)'\u003c\/strong\u003e, retaining the essential original synth elements while placing them over a heavier, more energetic \u003cstrong\u003e21st century tech house\u003c\/strong\u003e groove. The result respects the original while giving its iconic riff a renewed lease of life on today's dancefloors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Originally created by funk musician-turned-electro enthusiast \u003cstrong\u003eManny Skretching Jr\u003c\/strong\u003e in the mid-1980s, 'This Brutal House' was a landmark 14-minute jam that helped connect the UK's emerging house tribes with the sounds coming out of Chicago and New York. Its influence on British DJs and house producers was considerable, with \u003cstrong\u003eMark Knight\u003c\/strong\u003e among those who carried the record's spirit forward. This release brings that history full circle, pairing the original classic with Knight's modern interpretation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e An essential \u003cstrong\u003e12 inch vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e for DJs and collectors into \u003cstrong\u003e80s house records\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eelectro vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e, classic house, early Chicago-inspired dance music and the influential \u003cstrong\u003eToolroom Records\u003c\/strong\u003e catalogue.
