Detroit's Brainstorm have achieved cult status as a group among underground Disco, Soul and Boogie aficionados worldwide. "Hot for you" lifted from their 3rd LP from 1979 has always been a huge record for the more discerning Disco jocks, those who like to dig a little deeper to find the gems. A real dancefloor burner that found favour with everyone from Larry Levan to Daniele Baldelli after it's original release. The same can be said for "Journey to the light", another anthemic slice of midtempo Michigan Soul that was hugely popular in London on it's infamous "Rare Groove" scene, pirate radio stations and beyond. Lifted from the bands second LP and oozing class "Journey..." is a stellar cut, truly essential!
Both of these tracks on one 12" already make this an essential release for any real Soul head, but the fact that the versions featured here are private re-edits from one of the true masters of the game's private vaults makes it utterly unmissable.
Yes, that's right - Danny Krivit, Disco royalty, a true pioneer and re-edit trailblazer adding his unique touch to these incredible pieces of music make this a particularly hot biscuit. Danny has kindly opened up his archive and in conjunction with Tabu / Demon music group brings us these amazing reworkings. Both tracks have been lovingly edited and tweaked by Mr.K himself with DJ's and dancers in mind. 100% legit!

This opus was recorded in a room transformed into a studio, where countless hours of work happened on an old computer, with trips back and forth to the grocery to buy liters of soda.
In between soundtrack, jazz-funk and house, the beginnings of this EP find their roots in the encounter between Lucien and DJ Gregory (Point G), spiritual guide, who pushed into an introspective work, where the feelings were ultimately revealed sincerely. This EP is also the meeting of 4 musicians who've known each other for a long time and, together, form Lucien & The Kimono Orchestra.

Nous Horizon » is Yuksek's great studio album comeback, 5 years after his last album.

Yuksek's characteristic sound, midway between post-disco, house and pop, shines through on its various tracks. Even more than on his last album, « Living on the Edge of Time », Yuksek shows his talent as a singer.

'Nous Horizon' is an album of mostly duets, invitations to sing together (Break My Heart, Sunrise, Sweet Addiction, Stay) featuring greek singer Monika, French pop bands Her, Juveniles and Roman Rappak (from band Breton)

His new melodies are sunnier than before; his beats and production more subtle.

Airy, but still conveying a touch of hedonism in its most club-friendly sounds, this album is Yuksek's writing of a musical story.

Continuing where 'Subspace Transmission 1' left off Casionova brings another triple-tracker 12 of synth jams and dancefloor grooves ranging from the merciless bass-driven Mecha-disco assault of 'Droids Night Out' to the epic, booming and deep bass box-jam 'Magic Touch' and with the galloping, mystical and hypnotic 'Necromancer's Spell' sandwiched in between - for those who like their electro-disco raw and relentless.

This crew don't do things by half! Following the insanely nice Michael Boothman record a few months back - Invisible City Edition descend to even further depths and give us a fully re-mastered issue of this mythical treasure! BIG Limited Edition TIP!
"For many this is the ultimate Disco Illusion; a record that should have been epoch making in its day, something that would have been a staple for David Mancuso, Larry Levan & Ron Hardy had it ever gotten distribution when it was originally released 34 years ago. Somehow time passed it by and it was only re-discovered in a warehouse in Trinidad last year. Since then it has been gaining momentum fast, with DJ support from Moodymann, MCDE, Floating Points & Kon, as well as original copies selling for four-digit sums. Part of the illusion is in the structure of the record. The A-side begins with beautiful, but relatively normal disco song, but suddenly an Egyptian sounding bridge turns the things inside out and the song opens up into a proto-house jam complete with bubbling Sun Ra synths and Black Ark tape delay action. The there's the b-side, which sounds like Bob James after he had a taste of callaloo, with deep electronics and a mind-melting steel pan solo. Finally, thanks to Invisible City this record is getting the life it has always deserved. "

Giallo Disco returns from hiding all summer, taking comfort in the encroaching darkness with a very special EP from the one and only Ali Renault. Someone we wanted on the label from the very start (though we teased out a remix of his on the Mater Suspiria Vision EP under his Parasols moniker) we're proud to present 'Keeper Of The Seven Keys': Three tracks of cosmified aphex bliss, where pan pipes are the sound of death whistles and hats scatter like falling shells. The sky is falling and it sounds amazing. Closing up the EP is a special italo-tech remix by Antoni Maiovvi. Lovingly mastered by your friend Alek Stark. Art by Eric A Lee.

REISSUE

Growing up in Kiev, Ukraine, Sasha Renkas remembers a landscape of strange light and slight abandonment.
Compelled to create - or rather, extract - safer worlds from haunted hardware of the '80s and '90s, Renkas collaborates with Eline Makker to make escapist themes on the precipice of acid and adventure as Antenna.The most recent design from Antenna's Amsterdam base, and their first contribution to Beats In Space Records, after releases on Pinkman and Royal Oak, Primavera is a meditation on the sensitivity of spring.
Far from a floral arrangement, Renkas and Makker engage the liminal space, a brief, bitter-sweet bloom between the endless summer and relentless winter.
Written after an overwhelming in-and-out of body experience in the Austrian countryside, the four track EP is the fantastical formation of elevated moments in space and time, an homage to nature's otherworldly portals.
Each track presented is an edited version of one hour jams recorded live to drive, with cameos from an army of Akai and Korg veterans. Renkas new acuteness for beauty's hidden moments dictates a less Cageian, more Bretonian surrender to the generative possibilities of this weathered machinery.
Like the human imagination allowed to wander and wonder, each song manifests as its own environment in transition, formed of the perfect layering of antipodal elements.
'Primavera May' lifts you from ordinary life: the apparition of rain clouds and droplets blur into a soft curtain over the world as the whir of delicate hi-hats glisten in a muted sunlight. Imagine a moment where the most inanimate inhabitants of the earth ghost dance before disappearing into nothing.
Makker's spoken vocals add a crestfallen hue to the vanished. She monotonously recites her regret: "everything is dancing / everything is crying / it can feel so heavy / before it has begun"
A denser, yet similarly sorrowful song, 'Before I Fall Asleep' is sculpted around nimble strings and webbed by breathy vocals, remaining slightly suspended, as if levitating just above the verdant ground.Halfway through 'Primavera April,' the track is transformed by acid showers, a lead synth lifts off to reveal a ravaged landscape, diametrically opposing the previous peace.
The ambient 'Acceptance Snow' closes Primavera with the self-fulfilling prophecy of its theme: that snow will fall, and the world will go to sleep.Conjuring the surreality of Renkas childhood landscapes, for all its reverie, Primavera always orients itself toward the responsibilities of the present. There is an acknowledgment that all day dreams must lead back to reality, that all journeys must be fulfilled.
Each 12" on Beats in Space Records features original artwork in considerate and serial form.For Primavera, New York artist Jesse Moretti positions uniform obelisks across a melted pastel field to replicate the woozy rhythms of this EP.

Musik verfallen sind, ist längst kein Geheimnis mehr. Und dass Chic, die Band um Nile Rogers und Bernard

With this fifth release, the Moonrise Hill guardians decided to deliver a vinyl conceived by half of them on the A-side and two friends they decided to invite on the B-side. The first side of the record is the more club oriented one, with two tracks from Ethyène & Folamour that sums well what made the early Moonrise style, between smart soulful sampling to unstoppable groovy beats that will instantly make you burn a dancefloor. The second side starts with one of the two guests of this record, LB aka Labat, with a house anthem that gathers all the Detroit codes and an undeniable Hip-Hop influence. Toshigi Canopy has been asked to end the record, something that he did perfectly well with a more lo-fi track leaving you with a mysterious poetic taste that the Moonrise Hill guardians have always been defending.

4 disco, funk, freestyle edits by Jonny Rock.

The mystery band is back with a holiday heater. The follow up to their 2 side also on STAR CREATURE. Limited for the holidays includes instrumental to keep it funkin all year long plus holiday acapellas with enough festive DJ drops for all 12 days of Xmas. Pure Xmas Funk for the heads!

Diggin Deeper brings the funk with a Trans-Atlantic split EP from two edit masters.
Side A features Philadelphia disco don Michael The Lion, who has earned raves for his work on Soul Clap, Razor-N-Tape and Giant Cuts. His "Keep On Hangin' On" is a raw take on the classic "French touch" style - live vibraphone and bass elements to give a jolt of energy to a loft classic. With "Finally", Michael brings some nasty boogie funk with a groove that will give you the gas face. Side B showcases two tracks from Frenchman Jay Airiness, best known as half of the Parisian disco band Venice Beach. On "Funky Situation," Jay brings some oomph to a disco jazz groove that sails along. But Jay's touch is most evident on "Two of Us', a boogie-house banger that has made its way into a lot of well-connected DJs sets recently.
This 12" has four, diverse joints which can be dropped in different phases of an all-night party - a DJ's best friend!

Whiskey Disco #48 glows in the welcome return of Tomas Malo as well as beach, pool and terrace season.

Tomas Malo's skilled editing is underpinned by lush production and meticulous sample selection. South of the border flare meets French Touch filter in this package of three originals + Leftside Wobble's remix, sly and covertly sneaking a touch of classic acid to finish off the package.

The Kat edit stable pops back up and throws a couple of biggies into the pot...

EUREKA is one of the most exciting party and house crews in Tokyo that works with the theme 'Quality House Music Never Betray'. Now they're also starting up their own record label with a little help from their close friends over at Local Talk Records.
The very first release on EUREKA! comes from ex Bristol producer Crackazat who has had multiple releases on Local Talk, Future Boogie and Z Records.
With is melodic and jazzy take on House music he's quickly moved up on the underground scene as one of the key producers on today's house scene. A 'COFFEE TIME'
This track has a strong character with a bumpy combination of a catchy vocal chorus and a jazzy horn samples. It's a track that is so simple but still contains so much music.
B. 'SEVEN STEPS' Here we go more up-tempo but still with a jazzed up vibe. With a killer piano jazz loop (Miles!) and some added house chords, jacked up 4/4 beats, swinging hi-hats and we get a real winner for the dancers.

While the hoi polloi are distracted by the thrills and spills at the Stade de France this summer, those in the know have their sights set on the Parisian rooftops and terraces, ready to shake a leg to the freshest label in town, Good Plus. For their first excursion into your hearts and record collections, these dapper chaps turn their attention to a pair of overlooked, obscure and impossible to find cuts from their homeland. Digging deep into their extensive collections, the crew pull out Maya's sweet and soulful 'Lait De Coco' and a mysterious euro-tropical number, applying subtle edit pressure to extend the ecstasy in both cases.

Love to unearth DISCO's more SOULFUL jewels but don't have the time or money to dedicate yourself to the mouse-click
battles between pasty-faced collectors on e-bay Disco-nut producer Joey Negro and fellow crafty crate-digger Sean P came to the rescue in 2005 with the first of their great value Soul of Disco albums that was rammed to the rafters with CLASSIC, RARE, HARD to FIND GEMS from the era that brought us fantastic music and sparkly platforms.Now, more than 10 years later the album finally sees a gatefold double vinyl release featuring 10 of the best tracks from Vol.1 of the series.So rare and highly sought after are many of these tracks by Disco connoisseurs that the original 12's of this album would likely cost you several thousand pounds, if you were lucky enough to find them in the first place.This collection spans the years 1976-'82, with an R&B slant and more song-based material; and is intended to show that there were a few more sides (many more to come, of course) to one of the last century's biggest musical phenomena. Some of the tracks included appear in EXCLUSIVE DJ FRIENDLY RE-EDITS courtesy of JOEY NEGRO himself. In a compilation brimming over with accessible earthiness, rawness and downright soulfulness, Joey and Sean continue their mission to help us understand how disco's influence is still shaping music 30 years after it broke into the mainstream. DISCO JUST GOT SOUL!

Originally out on Durium in 1985, this rare Italo 12 gets a repress through Dark Entries !

On 'Other Life' the creative forces of Scottish producer MAKENESS and art pop four piece Adult Jazz combine to create an addictive slice of catchy disco-not-disco with post-punk influences.

MAKENESS is the name of producer and songwriter Kyle Molleson. Having grown up in The Outer Hebrides it was at Leeds Uni that he meet Harry Burgess, Steven Wells, Tim Slater and Tom Howe of Adult Jazz. Drawing on influences from Afro Beat, New-Wave and techno in 2015 he had his debut release 'Laca-Langa', a thundering percussive track. Adult Jazz released two lovingly received records, 2014's 'Gist Is' and 2016's 'Earrrings Off!' (on Tri-Angle) and have established themselves as one of Britain's finest new experimental pop groups, with lyrics that tackle questions of identity and belief.
Prior to the release on Meno Records, a then unreleased 'Other Life' was remixed by Whities producer Minor Science. 15 dub plates were pressed up and stamped with MXMS, finding their way to Jamie XX, Ben UFO and Roman Flügel, who all played the track. The original track is now being released by Meno Records, with a limited run of 300 12' as well as being made available digitally. Fans of avant-disco will rejoice at the sound, with its loose and un-quantized groove, synth squeaks, flourishes and off-kilter vocal falsetto, it's the artists but not as you know them and totally addictive. MAKENESS and Adult Jazz let their hair down and follow Arthur Russell's advice, 'First Thought, Best Thought'.

Introducing Broken Dreams, a new series of white label releases on Rotterdam based Pinkman label. First up is Metropolis, who returns with four Wave, Electro and Body Music hybrids. A quartet of tracks that draw on Lapien's diverse catalogue, this is undoubtedly some of his darkest music to date. Acid, New Beat and Post-Punk influences bubble and churn throughout. Crisp beats crash, strings lament, vocals sigh and synth stabs squirm for an EP that refuses to conform to norms. A hoarse and harsh cry to open a new Pinkman chapter.

2016 was a huge year for Red Rack'em with his smash hit 'Wonky Bassline Disco Banger' being hammered by just about everybody all over the place.It's been one of the biggest tracks of the year so far in the underground scene with The Black Madonna professing it as her 'track for the summer' on Pete Tongs Miami special on Radio 1 and a whole host of other DJs (including MCDE, Mr Scruff, Mano Le Tough and Detroit Swindle) jumping on board it's cracked out and super fresh take on disco house.Wonky Bassline is the culmination of a producer spending years honing his craft and while the world was justifiably going crazy to it, Danny Berman was quietly putting the final touches to his first 'proper' Red Rack'em artist album, which is aptly titled 'Self Portrait'.Released on his own label Bergerac 'to retain complete creative freedom', the album is a super personal journey through the many facets of house, disco and club music that Berman has explored in his 22 years as a DJ and 10 years of releases for Philomena, Ramp, Phonica, Wolf Music, City Fly and of course on his own labels Bergerac and Nettles.Focussing on sample heavy, off kilter yet danceable grooves, it's an extended trip through the mind of a true auteur who truly has his own unique perspective of what house music should sound like and how it should function in the club.Berman says that he was working on the album over a period of 'at least 4 years' and the music has been specially selected from 'stacks of tracks' so rest assured only the best has made the cut. The artwork comes from an old high school friend Abby Smith who got in touch with Danny via Facebook and asked if she could paint him. As it was the first contact they had had for many years, it seemed like fate and created the album concept - a true musical self portrait.The album opens with 'April Fool', an optimistic, sweet jam with a sun drenched halcyon feel. Super emotional and built for those eyes closed moments on the dancefloor.'Hot Weekend' features NZ ice queen City Hayes on vocals - this is a full on Detroit influenced monster with a rolling breakbeat and vintage Planet E/Recloose vibes. Hayes sings of debauched times while the music simultaneously peaks out on a UPS. Big!'Something That I Thought About ' shows Bermans thoughtful side. Super deep yet driving with a slightly melodic techno feel. 'I want you to show me how to love you every day''Wonky Bassline Disco Banger' is present here in its full form but comes with a brand new intro constructed from a fan video. A monster of a track which drops again and again - Danny shows us just how far you can stretch the disco house formula to explore new heights.Side B closes with 'Mad House' which is a super sinister, garage influenced warehouse banger designed to wreck the discotheque. Sinister rolling hi hats and held notes build the tension while offbeat snares and staccato bass slap the listener round the head.'Tomato Pope' is another biggie which harks back to the Africanism days with its North African influenced sound. Huge swinging beats, a system testing bassline and dubby delays make for an almighty party smasher which is sure to see plenty of play. Tomato Pope indeed....

Several years ago Red Rack'em interviewed Detroit legend Rick Wade on his much loved Smugglers Inn Radio show. During the interview, Rick reminisced about his teenage years listening to music and imagining how he could present this fascinated feeling to other people in a club context. The rest is history for Rick and it's the inspiration for 'The Music'. As well as featuring Ricks spoken words on the track it's a heads down Deep House number which is not a million miles away from some of the early Rick Wade tracks which influenced Berman.

Cosmic disco house anthem alert...'Kos Mich' is a track which Rack'em has been testing out at gigs over the last couple of years and it's also had quite a lot of other labels requesting to release it as well. But thankfully, it's place on the album is safe. This is another big club track with that elusive deep yet big room feel. Kos Mich baby!

Things slow down a touch with 'Sel' but the club wrecking ball potential remains. This is Danny demonstrating his well-rehearsed beat down skills with a super swampy, bluesy hoe down of a track which is already picking up a lot of attention from recent club plays. More of a slow BANG than a slow Jam.

'You Used To Make Me Feel' closes the album with an off the wall dissection of why some people choose to have sex. 'I like to do it to unwind' professes Berman while the beats skitter and scatter before resolving into something resembling a normal beat.

The guys at Pole Jam Vinyl have spent most of the last year involved in an undying quest to seek out new, exciting music.
They would neither be stopped by the Russian tundras nor the deserts of Australia in their search.Funnily enough, it was actually down-under they discovered Sydney based duo 'Falqo' with their brilliantly chilled and melodic number Across The Sea'.Then, it really was 'across the sea' they went, all the way to the Ukraine, picking up Sasha Anastasov's laidback, groovy smasher 'Sea For Two'. Next up was a much shorter trip to Moscow to collect Gayana, a band very much on the rise whose 'Since The Night' has been perfectly reinterpreted by Pole Jam's very own St. Petersburg based all-stars KLar&PF. Pioneerball is the solo project of Tesla Boy's lead guitarist who makes his second appearance on Pole Jam Vinyl. This time Pioneerball contributes the stunning opening track 'Deltaplane', a track influenced by obscure Russian cinematic soundtracks. It's combined perfectly with a compelling disco groove, jazzy melodies and organic strings that will make your heart melt. Back home, with the search having come to a successful conclusion, the Pole Jam Vinyl boys celebrated with a pint - or two !

ONLY 300 PRESSED, ORANGE VINYL - LIMITED EDITION

After a three year hiatus Night Sweats Music artist System Status is back with his first outing for People Must Jam.
The four-track Pale & Crazy EP sees a return to the experimental uptempo sounds of UK producer Dave Rendle.The mind behind System Status and The Detroit Urban Gardening Ensemble, Dave's music on Untracked, Out Here Audio, Horn Wax and Stupid Human has caught the attention of global tastemakers such as Gilles Peterson, Phil Asher, Ashley Beedle, Alex Nut and Ross Allen as well as receiving the remix treatment from another previous PMJ artist - Inkswel.The record kicks off with the title track which is a perfect representation of Dave's music style: loose rhythms, rising pads, little quirky vocal snatches, deep chords and fantastic funky squiggly synth work. Great vibes all round! Pale and Crazy is inspired by either; one of Dave's friend's now ex girlfriend or his own ghostly complexion!
Jiran Jaran - born out of a conversation that started on the dance floor at the Worldwide Festival, the question what would a half Iranian and half Japanese musical collaboration call themselves Jiran Jaran was born! Henry Wu was highly influential on this one.
Janice was a late addition to the record and it is probably our favourite. Using some of the musical teachings of a well known Antipodean musician, Dave uses everything he learnt to create a truly amazing track with just enough chord progressions and melodies to make the noodleiest of Jazz musicians smile.
The warm tones of his Arp Axxe shining through. We are hoping Gilles Peterson and Floating Points may get on this one.
Back of the Yards is another special cut - the oldest one on the ep. A Mr Fingers inspired bass sound with more Chicago and French/Canadian influences...interesting Check it out!
We are really excited to have been able to share this with everyone. Like all of our records - pressed on heavy duty 180gm vinyl. We hope you like it.

Shalamar - Take that to the bank and Change - Hard Times Edits plus bonus original beats.

As part of our 10 years anniversary this year after starting the label back in 2006 Mukatsuku is proud to release the remastered holy grail instrumental long version co produced by Tommy Stewart of 'Brotherson' from Atlanta USA resident Ojeda Penn with the other version on the flip on a 180 gram 12 inch single There were two versions of the album Happiness on the IFE independent label. They looked almost identical but the first version contained the now rarer elongated jazz fused instrumental version of 'Brotherson' and then a few months later they recut the album with a much shorter version adding strings and vocals.
The former version is now being sold up to £500 so this 12 is a welcome release to the reissue market. According to Mr Penn this is the first time either version has been reissued officially and Mukatsuku after many years of discussion is glad to finally be in a position to finally put out both versions on one phat 12''

A special DJ double pack from Emotional Rescue brings together a collection of Razormaid remixes, plus unreleased originals, of two projects from Georg Kajanus, the founder of 70s pop group, Sailor and 80s synth poppers, DATA. With a career spanning late 60s psychedelic folk-rock in Eclection, through to chart success as a member of 70s pop group, Sailor, before embracing the synthesised sound of early 80s New Wave and Synth Pop via the excellent DATA, Georg Kajunas music has covered a lot of ground. Therefore, it should be no surprise that as DATA became established he was pushing the electronic pop sound in a new direction, mixing with it an interest in middle-eastern music obtained from time spent travelling there during his youth. Forming both Fatima and also, And The Mamluks as two separate but joined entities to push this musical vision, these projects saw a number of songs created, but ultimately never released, that utilised the growing interest in World music mixed with a dance floor sensibility. At the same time, the success of DATA had spread across the Atlantic to the US club scene where literally hundreds of clubs were embracing the new European electronic sounds. Out of this scene came a number of re-edit and remix specialists, of which San Francisco's Razormaid were predominant. Taking 80s pop to industrial dance songs and extending them officially or often unofficially, their reworks have since become highly sought after. While sadly both Fatima and And The Mamluks never acheived official releases, the remixes done by Joseph Wyatt and his partner, Art Maharg, while on a trip to Europe, did appear on their own Razormaid label in the mid-80s. Here then for the first time are those remixes, plus the never heard before unreleased originals -remastered and released especially in a DJ style double pack for some proper late night megamixing.

LeonxLeon is Red Laser's man in Paris & an integral member of the infamous Les Yeux Orange collective.
After dropping several tracks for the collectable Red Laser EPs LeonxLeon exports four monster jams melding metallic disco with slo-mo italo & breezy electro-funk.
'Beefcake' comes up with electroid percussive beats & stabbing synths before settling into a tightly wound groove punctuated by boogie-esque trims & details. The tempo is dropped down for 'I Am After All'. A growling bass bumps up against Italo-noir keys providing a deeply satisfying nugget of chuggers paradise.
'My Solar Brass' skips around the floor working an uplifting groove equally suitable for both sunset & sunrise.
Finally 'The Train Tracks', included on the hard to find Red Laser EP5, is remixed by LeonxLeon's Parisian comrade Al Dente.
The original is worked up into a higher pitch & brightened, finding new emotions amongst the highly pumped elements.
The release is limited to 180 copies. Hand-stamped labels in neon colours & in textured grey card sleeves.

Red Fetish featured members from All The Madmen and Decades By Night and later evolved into The Cone and Tiger Club. These tracks were recorded in 1982-83 and all culled from various cassettes that the band recorded. The tracks for this special release (technically not a reissue) were hand picked by Medical Records out of a large demo collection (often multiple versions of certain songs). Red Fetish was heavily influenced by UK late 70's new wave as well as rock staples such as Pink Floyd, Beatles, and Hawkwind. The songs are built from very minimal and sparse synth lines yet the overall feel is interestingly dense and warm. Standout tracks include the playful and futuristic "Modern Age" and "The Last Man". A few of these tracks were previously released (different version) on a 7" on Anna Logue (Germany) but most have been largely unheard until now. Sprinkled in amongst the catchy vocal pop songs are quite a few very warm and synth heavy instrumentals as well such as "The Immortals" and "Blaze". This collection will absolutely be another piece of the highly intriguing and ever-deep well of minimal synth acts such as other contemporaries Oppenheimer Analysis, Twilight Ritual, Iron Curtain, and the like. Certainly fans of early Human League (especially The Future), early cassette culture wave and similar will enjoy this collection immensely. Remastered from cassette by Martin Bowes. Presented on high-quality 180gram heavyweight half and half colored vinyl (red and white) with sleeve design by Steve Lippert. Limited edition release.

Jongno Edits is a homage to the golden age of K-pop: psych-rock, funk, disco,
boogie... 60's, 70's, 80's...

The A side is a spacey edit of South Korean ballroom disco. The slappy intro is followed by a rolling bass line, keeping the groove locked for the tape delay expeditions. Side-B is a cut and paste of a classic disco-rock tune. K-Pop history right here!

Jongno Edits is back with a second volume of edits of deep Korean cuts dug out off the shelves at Hwang Hak Dong market. Again limited to 300 copies of analog mastered wax, get it while the heat last!Down comes out with bells and whistles, blurring the lines between the summers of Rimini and the dancehall of Itaewon.

This one is a shooting star for soju infused late nights, when the neons become lasers and the dance oors are free from gravity

Guaranteed to work on the dancefloor. Don't sleep.

CD TWO

Late night dweller Todd Modes can be found deejaying around Detroit playing anything from offbeat ambient grooves to spaced out Disco jams.
He released the Todd Modes / Bobby Dolo EP on the cult underground label M1 Sessions, and as Cosmic Handshakes with Dial 81 they put out an EP called 'The Delicate Details'.

Now he teams up with Golf Channel's own wild man Mike Severson from the psychedelic Disco rock outfit Heroes of the Galleon Trade.

After a session one night, the two step out for a cold one and bump into burly biker bar bandit Randy Winter and the singer song writer sex visionary Emily Infinity. After a few drinks they invited them back to the studio and the vocals were set. Put on your jean jacket slip on your leather boots and ready yourself for a night thrill ride.

OKINAWA DELAYS FEAT. SATOKO ISHIMINE - NARIYAMA AYAGU Claremont 56 / Limited-edition 10' single with obi strip
Claremont 56 has always had close links with Japan's vibrant music scene, with founder
Paul 'Mudd' Murphy making annual trips for DJing and live performances. It's perhaps
unsurprising, then, that the label's latest limited-edition vinyl release comes from Japanes
outft Okinawa Delays, a project founded by producer, DJ and long-time friend of the labe
Takeo.
Some of you may already be familiar with Okinawa Delays thanks to 2016's Hana, a cove
of a popular 1995 J-pop hit featuring original vocalist Satoko Ishimine. The singer is a we
known performer in her native Japan, having released a number of acclaimed records on
Toshiba EMI throughout the 1990s.
Ishimine's breathtakingly beautiful vocals come to the fore on 'Nariyma Ayagu', Okinawa
Delays' frst single for Claremont 56. On his spellbinding remix, regular Claremont 56
contributor Phil Mison wraps Ishime's haunting vocals around dreamy, drifting synthesize
and electric piano chords, glistening acoustic guitars, and sparkling, sunrise-friendly
electronics.
Even by the Balearic maestro's usual high standards, Mison's remix is stunning. It's
accompanied by a vocal-free, delay-laden dub for those who want to revel in his poignan
mood-enhancing production.
On the fip, and on Murphy's suggestion, Ishimine re-joins Okinawa Delays for a cover of
Kamiko Kasai's popular 1977 Japanese disco cut 'Vibration'. Breezier, looser and notabl
sunnier than Kasai's version, the Okinawa Delays interpretation moves further towards jaz
funk whilst retaining the original's groovy positivity. With Ishimine providing another stellar
vocal performance, Takeo's assembled band delivers the goods, and then some.
Claremont 56 will release Nariyama Ayagu in April 2017. Only 324 (pressing came in a bi
short!) copies of the 10' single will be available worldwide.
Limited edition 10', numbered to 350 (only 324 pressed)

INCL DOWNLOADCODE Over the course of the past ten years, Stil vor Talent has striven to support emerging young artists, to continuously broaden and redefine its sound, and, ultimately, to create lasting memories, both on and off the dance floor. The dance floor is the place where we gather to leave the worries of our everyday lives behind, and, for those few moments, form a bond, which transcends the final track of the night. A bond between each other; between the artist and the dancer; between ourselves and the music. On '10 Years Stil vor Talent' we celebrate this bond and say 'Thank you'.

Beginning in the south, the Bruce Trail hugs the ancient shoreline of Lake Iroquoia as it follows the edge of the Niagara Escarpment. The Path, over its lengthy journey, winds its way through a landscape of natural beauty as it moves up to central Ontario. As the Trail leads further into the depths of the woodland and Ravine, sunlight falls through layers of evergreen branches stamping intricate patterns on the forest floor. Continuing north, the Trail passes an array of plants and wildlife native to the historic forest. Vivid colours saturate the forest canopy, complimented by the sounds of the cascading
waterfall echoing through the Ravine. In the distance a carpet of gently waving fern cover the rolling hills dotted with slow-growing centuries-old coniferous trees that reach towards the sun.
At the home stretch of the escarpment you will be offered stunning views of the Peninsula, with the calm blue water of the western end of Lake Ontario reaching out to the lush greens of the temperate rainforest. This is the journey of the Bruce Trail.

Mile End Records is pleased to present their latest release, "Slide," which is a collaboration between two undisputed legends of house music: Roy Davis Jr. and Robert Owens.

The song marks the first single off Roy's upcoming full length album for Mile End Records - Destroy and Rebuild - due worldwide later this year. Roy Davis Jr. is known globally for his anthemic catalog of soulful, Chicago-style house with R&B influences. Robert Owens' voice is recognizable on countless house music classics including the seminal "I'll Be Your Friend." Needless to say this meeting of the minds makes perfect sense.

While "Slide" seems predestined to move dance floors, the excitement is in how it accomplishes its magic. A slight acid bass line shimmies away layered in with deep, shifting pads and a short, reverberating stab that creates an upswing in the groove.

Robert Owens sings in the way that only he can, with a slight echo effect leaving lingering trails and creating continuity between multiple vocal parts. Introduced by the onset of piano keys towards the end of the song, the heated singing turns to cool talking.

What would this release be without more heavy hitters on remix duties A fellow Chicagoan with a lengthy history dating back to the '80s, DJ Skull really gives the track an authentic rawness exemplified by that classic era. While based in the UK, Luke Solomon (Classic Music Company) at some point was certainly bit by the Chicago bug, evidenced by his longtime label collaboration with the Windy City's Derrick Carter. Luke really works out the drums in his remix and adds off-kilter bleeps with string like filtered acid sounds.

Moving on to one of Canada's top talents, Andy Roberts (Mixed Signals Music) also reinvents the track's drums, but chooses organs, chimes, and a more hardy bass over the others' 303 sounds. Berkshire's James Blakstar John is up next and holds his own with active, filtered key sounds taking the forefront along with some playful vocal rearrangement.

Roy Davis Jr. and Robert Owens have attracted an all-star cast on Mile End Records that would make it hard for anyone to just let this package slide.

An Italian-Spanish connection is always a good thing. The sort of sensual and Mediterranean emotions that Carlo and Black Loops can deliver, is a skill that has been taken far on this new EP. The dichotomy can prove difficult to square sometimes, particularly when the guys have different paths in their sound. But the mix is rich here. The Intermission EP is a packed full of soul samples, warm pads, and great solid beats wrapped up as a soulful declaration. Their massive love for music really shines through in this EP.

The Disco Fever takeover has prevailed in this special release from one of dance music's most influential figures

Bordello A Parigi. Ali Renault. A gin and tonic combo if there ever was one. The UK synthesizer savant lands with a four tracker of leftfield electro pop. 'Altro Mondo' screams out of the traps, bulbous bass lines elbow sweetened chords and snapping beats. 'Fume' grows from the same soil. Analogue warmth is brushed, even bruised, by the crack and whip of rhythms; a touch of EBM bitterness blended with Italo hope. Nowhere is this more evident than in...'Nowhere', a buckled dancefloor romp with the king of Milano, Fred Ventura, offering vocals. Uabos maintains the tension for the finale, uplifting house currents coursing through his remix of 'Lenticular'.

DJ Dez aka Andrés returns to Japan's Root Down records for his second 7" on the label. For those that only know Dez from his Andrés releases- you are missing a whole other side of what this guy can do. Dez has been scratching, cutting, and chopping beats for the better part of 20 years as a DJ for Slum Village, a member of Detroit's 12 Tech Mob DJ crew, not to mention countless amounts of productions, mixes and beats for other artists. Here on this 7" - we have two rare examples of Dez's inimitable style - raw, funky and timeless!

Street Meat follows the sold-out In Flagranti Edits w/ club-worthy re-edits of some Chrissy faves, from classic US garage to obscure Quebecois disco & synthy Euro-heaters. He's been road testing in rooms like Panorama Bar & Smartbar, to great response.

The limited Especial Specials continues with 4 remixes of Jaakko Eino Kalevi's Dreamzone EP. Featuring a heavy weight line up of Tom Noble, Heatsick, Peaking Lights and Vezurro, this is an all-bases-covered masterclass is taking Jaakko's pop leanings and giving them some boogie, dub and Italo sparkle.

Hot on the heels of the Steaua de Mare Remixes comes 4 retakes of Jaakko Eino Kalevi's idiosyncratic pop stylings. Licensed from Weird World Records, this sees the multi-instrumentalist's original Dreamzone EP handed over for readjustment.

The up, up boogie vibes of Tom Noble's calling card create his best remix to take. No Fun maybe Jaakko's 'ladies' love hymn, but with Tom's distinctive "never ending" bass and hats loops moving hips, a keys solo and vocal interplay ensure sublime perfection.

Next Steven Warwick's superb Heatsick project implants his twisted casio-rawness in to Jaakko's world, marrying Memories ghostly vocals into a mix of afro-clipped beats and lo-fi melody that just fits.

So happy to finally welcome in friends, family and inspiration, Peaking Lights in to the family. Aaron and Indra's uplifting dub love comes alive in this remix, with live bass grooves, vibing keys and Jaakko's unique vocal riding-a-riddim' all night long.

To close up and coming Vezurro return to No Fun, providing an Italo love ode that can only move hearts into a true Rimini '84 summer affair. "Can't you see that I'm dancing"

Since their inception in 2013, East London duo Payfone have been breathing warm-blooded soul into their unique machine-fuelled groove.Drawing the dots between the White Isle and Nu Yorica - by way of London's narcotic nightlife - the pair conjure a rhythmic throb and soulful devotion all of their own.
Together, Phil Passera and Chieka Ononye buzz along the fault lines of classic R&B, cosmic disco and acid house, injecting their sound with 21st century syncopation.
Adhering to a strict 'no samples' rule, their manifesto demands that everything be 100 percent original.
It's a formula that's worked well so far: the pair have been widely tipped across the blogosphere and are currently linked to celebrated US imprint Golf Channel Recordings.
Following three sold-out releases for the label, they return with another pair of discreet bangers, Justified and We Are Chains.
The tracks turn up the heat on their previous releases, again offering the vocals of performance powerhouse Louis Howard Jones whose lyrics spark with a political punch.

The sublime vocal versatility of The Reynolds has been indispensible to Greg Wilson's Super Weird Substance label over the first four releases and, as such, they have duly been awarded their debut solo release, mixed by Greg and Peza. The Seacombe-based twins, although only young, perform like veterans.Taking on Bessie Banks' 1976 single 'Don't You Worry Baby The Best Is Yet To Come' - a huge track at Northern Soul temple Blackpool Mecca - Katherine and Carmel Reynolds have created another spine-tingling slice of sunshine, having previously led Greg Wilson's 'Summer Came My Way' so expertly, firmly laying down their intentions as musicians on a mission.

The Florida based Brookside imprint have dug deep into the Philly master tapes and let NYC master-mixer Mike Maurro loose on a couple of stone cold classics from the catalog! Maurro, a Queens based DJ and mixer since 1986 has become one of the top remixers out there today with his own, faithful takes on numerous dance classics from the last 30+ years. Here, he tackles 2 cuts from Philadelphia International recording artists and Soul, Funk and Disco legends - Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes. "Bad Luck" takes up side-A of the 12", a glorious 13 minute remix that just oozes class. This one was made with DJ's in mind, extended drum breaks, elongated sections that squeeze every drop of sweet Philly Soul out onto the dancefloor. Side-B sees a fantastic mix of the evergreen classic "The Love I Lost", clocking in at just under 12 minutes. A slow burning version with the instrumentation and arrangements up front for the first few minutes before the track unfolds and Teddy's iconic vocals grace our eardrums. Incredible! These mixes are ESSENTIAL for any Disco/soul/Funk fans out there, unmissable for the DJ's, legitimately remastered and pressed onto high quality 12" singles in conjunction with all rights holders.

Early in 2014, Copenhagen's Kenneth Bager asked electronic wizard and remix entrepreneur Ruf Dug if he would make an album for his acclaimed Balearic imprint Music For Dreams. That summer, Ruf Dug headed off to spend three months on the island of Guadeloupe in the French Caribbean. Seizing the opportunity to live out his own Compass Point fantasy, he put together a portable studio that would fit into a suitcase - two half-rack synthesizers, a couple of effects units, his laptop and a 4-track cassette recorder. He set up the studio in the spare bedroom in a rented villa and spent the next 12 weeks watching the sun set and making the album. All tracks were written and recorded in Guadeloupe, with Nev Cottee beaming in vocals and guitar parts for a couple of the tracks direct from the heart of Mancunia, hooking into the powerful and long-standing musical relationship between Manchester and that most famous of sunset islands - Ibiza.
This is music not only for sunsets, but also for late-night smuggling adventures; for tropical storms and rum-soaked afternoons; for pirates, playboys and people like you and me.
The end result hopefully transports you to an island in the sun: neither Guadeloupe nor Ibiza particularly, but rather that island of the imagination, one we all escape to from time to time, no matter where we find ourselves. Welcome to 'Island' - the nine track debut album by Ruf Dug on Copenhagen's Music For Dreams.

Pizzico Label head Billy Bogus is back on track, this time joined by Kasillen , mysterious producer and sound designer who comes from a hip hop and black music background, and is behind Italian pop stars such as Stadio, Umberto Tozzi & Samuele Bersani just to name a few.Bogus & Kasillen come up with two original tracks with the consistent help of a MPC 1000, blending old Italian horror soundtracks with dubby/cheesy analog sounds so to convey the sense of discomfort you feel while watching a thrilling Italian b-movie, but in a clubby way. The final punch comes from the acid psychedelia of a different version of the same track by In Flagranti and the 80's space-like vibe of homeboy Ma Spaventi .
Svengali is a 1931 American horror film where through hypnotism and mind control, a sinister music maestro controls the singing voice, but not the heart, of the woman he loves. As most of the Impressionist movies of early 30's it speaks metaphorically about european pre-war tensions and the incoming menace of Nazi Germany.

Giovanni Damico is an extremly talented and ambitious producer from Italy. Despite his young age he has over 20 releases on labels like the beloved FACES. This EP is just insane. Proud moment for Giovanni and Lumberjacks in Hell.

Finnitus is back with its first 12" release! Spanning the entire A side, Superkind, consisting of Rulefinn and Kim Durbeck, delivers a driving Disco bass line, epic strings and screaming laughter, which The Glue dubbed as 'the weirdest thing we've heard in our entire lives'. On the flip, Rulefinn drops 'Just Try', a nine minute slow jam, slowly building to a climax worthy of finishing your perfect night at the club, and 'Let the OK music play', an intense Disco drum tool in his favourite bpm range(130s).

Consumer Manoeuvres by Le Cliché is the latest release on Cold Beats Records (Barcelona).

Yet it does so always with an optimistic sarcasm and playfulness.

Cold Beats Records presents some of the most influential electronic artists from the underground, minimal synth and coldwave scene from the last 35 years in an all-together darker record Le Cliché's other records.Collaborators include Mark Lane, Mick Milk, Kline Coma Xero and Spatial Relation (USA), ADN' Ckrystall (France), Red Fetish, John Costello, This is the Bridge and Jonteknik (UK), KuBO (Ireland) Moss Garten (Sweden) JJ Ibañex of Kremlyn, and Wladyslaw Triejo (Spain) Delayscape (Denmark), Gay Cat Park and Effetto Joule (Italy).These artists have appeared on many of the most influential darkwave, coldwave, italo and minimal synth music on a host of leading labels including Minimal Wave, Mannequin, Medical Records, Peripheral Minimal, Anna Logue, Domestica, Obscure Identities 1980, Vinyl on Demand, La Forme Lente and Kernkrach.Cold Beats Records presents a limited edition of 330 copies, with 18 tracks across two formats, a transparent vinyl high quality LP plus cd, with a full cover inner sleeve which includes detailed biographical notes on all artists involved.
