Award-winning UK House producer Josh Butler announces the formation of his first label project – ORIGINS RCRDS. Kicking off the label with a three-part ‘Heroes of House’ series, Josh will collaborate with and pay tribute to both current figures in the house music scene with the ability to inspire, and also those who have influenced the course of house music history.

What better way to kick off the series than to collaborate with the ‘Father of House’, Marshall Jefferson, whose seminal 1986 single ‘Move Your Body’ (The House-Music Anthem) was the soundtrack to an underground generation.

Having formed a strong bond together in the Manchester music scene, Josh and Marshall, two generationally different but like-minded producers, came together to create ‘In Time’, which would become the first record of the ORIGINS label.

The symbiotic nature of the project is clear from the outset, with Marshall‘s melodic piano and saxophone work complementing Josh‘s trademark sub-bass groove. The classic vocal is a nod to the genre’s Chicago roots, while the layered groove proves more modern, resulting in an amalgamated style that is at the same time nostalgic and contemporary.
