Established in 2010 by Gadi Mizrahi, also known as Baby Prince, Double
Standard is an off-shoot of the illustrious and ground-breaking Wolf + Lamb
imprint, and has become a second home for the movement’s future-facing brand of
funked up deep house jams after the daddy imprint spawned a whole new generation
of slower grooves for an alternative kind of dancefloor burn. Like a devoted
father, the label is proudly immersed in a family of artists, watching them
evolve to produce some of the most distinctively deep and seductively funky
music around.
Down to Gadi's precise and passionate A & R skills, and the
tight knit support of close compatriots such as partner in Wolf + Lamb, Zev, the
label crops the cream of raw talent that comprises the Marcy All-Stars
collective named after the Brooklyn hotel/club/creative hub where it all began.
With releases spanning the phenomenal funk of Soul Clap, the avant-electronica
of Nicolas Jaar, and exquisite skill of Greg Paulus and Deniz Kurtel as well as
Benoit & Sergio, Slow Hands, Double Hill and the burning talent of Voices Of
Black, Tanner Ross and Gadi Mizrahi himself, the label has always been unafraid
to experiment with raw deep sounds
An extension of Wolf + Lamb, famously
fusing electronic funk with R&B, techno and even hip-hop influences, Double
Standard releases still retain an identity of their own - original and diverse,
encompassing a range of moods and atmospheres and flirting between deep bass
outer space music and smokey laid-back grooves. The Double Standard back
catalogue depicts a label with a crystal clear artistic vision without
boundaries and clearly always on the quest for your next favourite record.
