Now that technology is as cheap as chips and you can make music off of your iPhone, it’s probably true that most DJs are, aside from playing out, turning their hands to making music.

“Tell me something I don’t know,” I hear you yawn.

Well, if you fall under this bracket you’d better cover your ears and look away now, because we’ve found a tech-house anthem so accomplished that it might make you want to throw in the towel.

The ‘Catz n Dogz’ EP is what the Dirtybird record label is all about.

An imprint of genius tech-house pioneer Claude VonStroke was always going to be brutally good.

And here’s what to expect from ‘Fixation’ - one of its best tunes:

* Perfect production
* A deep appreciation of the house genre
* Stupidly funky grooves and percussion
* Clever arrangement
* Strong sense of progression
* Painstaking sound design
* Choice vocal samples
* Super-pro editing

...it’s all here in spades courtesy of producers Catz n Dogz.

So crank this sucker up on your system and proceed to shack out, but be warned ... it’s addictive.
