its been a year or two since we featured a 12- single release from a new project. so hear at bearfunk we are really pleased to be releasing a cracker of a track. -gong bong-. it is from the caribbean house who are a new(ish) italian collective based around the core members of billy bogus & ferderico bologna. the original is one part slo-mo disco, one part psychedelic moondance and one part sci-fi horror movie. the track begins with swirling bass guitar and grinding synth before layering on a waft of sound effects and spooky keys. if the first two thirds of the track is a caterpillar then the last third is a butterfly as uplifting riffs and swirls of layered keys bring things to a crescendo. fellow italians the mushrooms project are up on remix duty first of all. they strip back the layers and concentrate on the growling bass and locked on pulsating synth. its back to the uk for the second remix where label honcho stevie kotey gets his percussion out for a drum, timpani and swing remix. stay tuned for more from the collective on bearfunk shortly.

beflügelt vom großen erfolg der ersten zusammenstellung hat es sich der dj, jazz-maestro, obsessive plattensammler und if-labelchef jean-claude thompson nicht nehmen lassen, zu einer zweiten reise in tiefe jazzlandschaften einzutauchen. sein dreifach-vinyl ist gedacht für alte hasen und junge dancefloor-hüpfer, arrivierte auskenner und neugierige novizen. denn: kaum jemanden dürften die obskuren, seelenvollen und natürlich längst nicht mehr regulär erhältlichen stücke bekannt sein, die thompson aus welchen plattenkisten auch immer ans tageslicht geholt hat. dabei sind es gar nicht einmal sonderlich viele, zeichnen sich die meisten der insgesamt neun tracks doch durch eine laufzeit von zehn bis zwölf minuten aus, “latin black funk” von sparrow währt sogar 20 minuten. der spirit lebt!
