House music baron Wally Callerio is relaunching his acclaimed Dufflebag Recordings imprint after 75 releases, just in time for 2010. Starting over with DBD001, Callerio is dropping nine original tracks on an album titled “Soul Society,” which can be found exclusively on Stompy.com until late January. Featuring a bevy of talent, the relaunch of Callerio's Los Angeles-based label looks to be quite the strategy, and house fans are surely keen on the news. Artists on the album include Amp Fiddler, Josh One, and Myka 9.

Changing with the times, Callerio switched his output type to digital from vinyl items, fostering the opportunity for an even larger fanbase. His style is the antithesis to mainstream dance music, possessing elements of soul and funk that leapfrog the subgenres of house music. With the relaunch of Dufflebag, Wally seeks to drop tracks “as pure as “Off the Wall” or “Thriller,” effectively moving his focus to a sound that is at once accessible and memorable.
