UK mastodon Jaegerossa storms through Sundries—the Russian label like a disco-drenched wrecking ball—with Lay It Down, a track that doesn’t ask for your attention so much as it demands surrender.
It moves quicker than most of his catalog, a touch more bite in the BPM, but it still carries the shimmer of a late-’70s fever dream. Soulful, brazen, unapologetically alive—tThis is groove with an edge—strutting in with bite and bravado, a sharp reminder that dance music was never meant to play it safe.
Jaegerossa is Phil Rose, known to the turntables and to the night as Jaegerossa, grew into the scene like a rhythm that builds slowly until it owns the room. He came up in the U.K., steeped in soul, punk, Motown, and the quiet revolutions of early House. What started as a duo project morphed into a singular mission: to bring the pulse of disco and the heartbeat of house back into the places that had forgotten how to feel them.
From the DJ booths of Manchester to the offices of Midnight Riot and Black Riot, where he works A&R like an archivist of groove, Rose has built a body of work that doesn’t just nod to the past—it throws open the gates and lets it dance. Collaborations with artists like Yam Who? became more than partnerships; they were statements, reminders that the soul never left the music.
In his club nights like ‘Edit,’ and side-projects like Platinum City, there’s a common thread: a hunger for that moment when the beat lifts you, not because it’s new, but because it remembers.
