The VSHOG version of 'Having Fun', from Stefano Torossi's 1974 album 'Feelings' (a holy grail of Italian library music) is an uplifting lush orchestral string laden funky breakbeat feel-good track to raise your vibrations!

Not only was Joe Strummer the co-founder, lyricist, rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist of one of the all-time great British bands, The Clash, he also gifted us a musical legacy which reaches far beyond.

His career included membership of the 101ers, Latino Rockabilly War, The Mescaleros and the Pogues. He embraced the opportunity to create as a musician through his song writing and solo work as well as producing scores for film and television.

This exclusive 12' single includes a selection of solo tracks and has been curated by the Joe Strummer Estate.

The sleeve features never-before-seen artwork created by Joe Strummer and Josh Cheuse, Joe's long-term creative collaborator.

Giorgio Records is an independent label whose purpose is the rediscovery of some Italo Disco tracks that have never been reprinted to present them to the new generations who love the genre. The Mad Work musical project with the song A Night Alone is one of those. Italo Disco gem of the mid-80s now available in vocal and instrumental version and enriched with Casionova Edit and Flemming Dalum Remix.

GOLF CHANNEL return with a limited session straight from the sex dungeon.
S&M never hurt so good...

"Radiophonic borderline funk that makes a mutha smile!" - Bootsy Collins

It's a third trip out on vinyl for us here at Sprechen and steering us through the surf is Manchester 6 piece 'See Thru Hands' who drop seriously sanguine vibes on their lazer guided single 'Connectivity'.
A self-produced alt-pop banger from the collective which fully delivers on all things 'disco-not-disco-synth-funk-dancefloor heater' vibes, which brings to mind peak 80's Chaka Khan partying with LCD Soundsystem & A Certain Ratio at Paisley Park.

Remixes for every occasion on this one with Skream cranking up the Italo disco-o-meter to 14 on his bass driven peak time banger for large room raving while Jorja Chalmers takes the party back to a smokey shebeen on her mix that sounds like Tricky sharing a blunt with Aphex Twin whilst King Tubby twiddles the dials!

Our very own Massey finishes off the package with a mucky tops-off style gutter pumper which belongs in those basements you'll often find him and many like-minded souls dwelling within.

KHANDoIt's hypnotic 100 BPM stomp does not adhere to genre or fickle trends, it simply bangs.
The track begins with a sturdy kick and piano glissandos which recall Alice Coltrane's most transportative work.
As the beat picks up, a creeping, filtered arpeggio enters its journey between rhythmic and downright nasty serving as the track's primary drama.
Its a stunning intro to the new label GRIMY TRAX, a musical chameleon that can be dropped at the beginning, middle or end of the night.

To complement the epic A-side, Grimy returns to the endlessly talented midwest and emerges with LULU, an original track by deejay/edit ace Bruce Ivery.
The track seamlessly combines the Chicago acid sound with the clever vocal sampling of early 90s NYC house. The result is pure peak-time heat.
Towards the end of the track, Ivery arranges brief melodic elements into a propulsive disco facsimile. This unexpected turn summarizes the philosophy of the new label and the way this small group of artists selects and makes records. It doesn't matter if it's house, disco, or techno, just make it GRIMY!

Not a lot is known about who is behind the Amplified Orchestra moniker, although there is a Chicago address stamped on the vinyl. Cosmic Slope is a spacey number, with bubbly basslines and a full retro synth workout to challenge the likes of Moroder and co. It has a great cosmic vibe to it, with some lovely sounding synth solo's and a bubbling bassline. The title track, on the flip, Fun Thing is a sick acid work out with a mean and aggressive 303 bassline, housey stabs, cool strings, superb synth lead solos and uplifting female vocal shouts. This is EP all about the bounce!

Afro Funk, Disco and Boogie: West African Disco Mayem!
Soul Jazz Records' new Nigeria Soul Fever is their first release to explore the vast wealth of Nigerian music recorded in the 1970s. The new album comes with introductory sleeve-notes by Bill Brewster (author of Last Night A DJ Saved My Life).
Packed-full with Afro-Funk, Disco and Boogie all from Nigeria, this triple album/double CD set brings together a stunning collection of diverse West African sounds. Whilst a small handful of the artists featured (Joni Haastrup, Tee Mac, Christy Essien) have seen the light of day outside Africa, this is essentially a collection of killer tracks by an array of artists completely unknown outside of Nigeria. Artists such as Don Bruce & The Angels, Akin Richards & The Executives, Angela Starr, Jimmy Sherry & The Music Agents. It's no surprise that these records are extremely rare and expensive to buy individually so this album will save you going broke trying to find them.
These recordings were made at a time when Nigeria's trade restrictions banned imported records. Whilst new musical trends (such as American soul, funk, disco etc) entered and influenced the country, the local music scene remained just that - local. Consequently, these recordings remain practically unknown to anyone outside of the country.
Nigeria Soul Fever is released as triple-album vinyl + download, double-CD digi-pack and digital download. This album follows on from Soul Jazz Records' 1960s collection Nigeria Freedom Sounds, released last month, and will be followed by the reissue of the incredibly rare and groovy Nigerian 1980 disco boogie funk album Tee Mac's Night Illusion.

In demand massive South African disco banger from 1979. Now reissued for the first time on the Afro Synth imprint.

Disco Bits are back with another party time 45.
Cannon & Mirrorball are in the edit suite once again re-touching and consensually grappling with funky old 70's grooves and late nite club accapellas to bring you the heat that your record box has been needing.

A - Hot Lovin' (Dont Stop Dont Quit)
On side A they they serve up some peaktime Studio 54 realness mixed with a bit of late 80's style hip house.
This is Cerrone meeting Sergio Mendes uptown, Saturday Night, whilst Chali 2na and his posse bumrush the show and grab the mic.

B - Shack Attack !
On the flipside the boys funk it up with some never fail drum breaks from the Disco Shack, vocal snatches of a houseparty classic and a swathe of brand new instrumentation.
The result is a jam is so dope you'll get a contact high by un-sleeving the wax.

Ain't no party like a Cannon & Mirrorball party, y'all !

Get 'em while you can.

After a one year and a half break, Femur makes his comeback with a 12” by French artist Cold Colors. For this occasion, we are recovering a selection of early demos to be released for the first time on vinyl. The four compiled tracks represent the particular cosmos in which Frédérick Barbe moves like fish in water. A perfect mixture between wave sounds, evocative melancholies, and enveloping darkness make up a real trip across foggy atmospheres. Release limited to 300 copies.

Los Angeles' Daniel T. joins the RNT fam with a stellar EP of homegrown and international flavor.
Known for his crisp production work as half of Cosmic Kids and more recent solo outings on Chit Chat and Let's Play House, on this 12" Dan also shows his talent for selecting and editing.
From the corner-store funk of Hit the Streets, percussive tropical sway of All Day, to the frenetic bounce of Trinidad Trouble and beatdown soulful vibes of Penguin Vacation, this record covers continents in just 4-tracks!
