House Master is a title which many may claim but few can justify. House Masters is the DJ friendly compilation series now in its fifth addition. It showcases the work of the world's most talented house music producers who through their musical achievements have earned the right to be entitled a true 'House Master'. Previous collections have presented the works of Louie Vega, Dennis Ferrer, Sandy Rivera and Bob Sinclar.

This is a series that brings both the artists' own productions and all their most prominent remixes together in one collection - unmixed.

Aimed squarely at the DJ, and brought to you by two of France's most talented producers; DJ Gregory and Julien Jabre, this is a perfect tool for any DJ with some tracks being made available digitally for the first time and all presented at full length.

DJ Gregory is a unique house music producer and DJ well known as one of the pioneering original French house set that established the foundations of the scene in the early 90's.

Now re-located to Amsterdam from Paris, the Faya Combo label head was behind the critically acclaimed 'Africanism' project alongside Bob Sinclar from which two of Gregory's productions; 'Block Party' and 'Tournament d'Amour' became international club hits. It was this project that ultimately led him to set up his own label which saw the release of 'Tropical Soundclash' and 'Elle', both of which became instant successes.

Julian Jabre is a producer of equal integrity, being a long time collaborator and studio partner of Gregory's. The pair originally met whilst DJing on the legendary Parisian radio station, Radio FG.

A former DJ who now solely produces, Julien always looks for the emotional angle when creating dance tracks, a factor that was especially apparent with the release that first brought him notoriety in 2005, 'Swimming Places' - a huge WMC hit and arguably his biggest record to date. 2009 has started off powerfully for Julien with the release of 'Vicious Circle' - a record included in many of the elite DJ's track lists, and 'Boomerang' - lifted from his Wonderland EP and a record that will appeal to the techier DJs.

This package is a collection of twenty of their best works and an essential addition to your DJ collection. Also available digitally only as part of the House Masters package are a further nine productions by Soha - the acclaimed joint venture by Gregory and Julien. This is a release that is not to be missed.
