stix records is a sub-division of favorite recordings, recently launched with a first official single by taggy matcher birdy & nixon (stix033), who pleased us with two reggae-rocksteady renditions of the famous black keys. precisely specialized in the exercise of producing covers with a reggae twist, the new label presents his first album entitled *disco reggae*. many artists faithful to the stable of favorite recordings and its various sub-labels are invited for the occasion: the dynamics, blundetto, grandmagneto, 7 samurai, john milk or taggy matcher. all came and brought their respective touch to this first compilation, with among other things some of the rarest titles from their big single records’ years, but also 4 new and exclusive productions. each of them delivers a great disco-reggae version of classic hits by some artists as diverse as madonna, herbie hancock, justin timberlake, the commodores, the o jays, curtis mayfield, harry nilsson or sugarhill gang. whatever the genre or the period, nothing can resist their inventiveness and creativity, to the point sometimes we confuse between originals and covers. everything is remastered and cut at carvery records (uk), known for their expertise in caribbean and disco music. the vinyl lp comes in a deluxe version, housed in an old-school tip-on jacket.

theyre young and tough, and especially wonderful too, easily one of the most compelling harmony soul groups to ever hail from the windy city! the sets a chicago soul gem from the early 70s, recorded with a laidback, slightly tripped-out vibe thats different than the tighter styles of other groups from the same scene, definitely righteous at points, with some of the superbad modes you might hear from an east coast lineup like the delfonics or soul generation, especially when they were trying to get a bit more conscious in their message. arrangements are great – handled by tom tom washington, eugene record, and cliff davis, very much at the best brunswick mode, but again with a deeper sort of vibe too. the title cuts a monster, and a very fitting follow-up to their earlier sly, slick, & wicked track – and the album features 2 versions (vocal and instrumental) of a cut called this is the lost generation, a very righteous soul groove with a heavy production tip.

wenn es um erfolg geht, scheinen dem mann keine grenzen gesetzt: calvin harris, vom forbes-magazin jüngst zum bestbezahlten britischen musiker und dj nummer eins weltweit gekürt, schwimmt derzeit auf einer unglaublichen erfolgswelle: mit seiner jüngsten single *summer* gelang ihm nicht nur der sechste nummer-eins-hit in großbritannien, auch in deutschland erreichte er einen neuen karriere-peak. der song erreichte in den media control charts platz drei (bisherige bestmarke: platz 13) und den deutschen airplay-chart sensationell platz neun (!).
nachdem harris auf *summer* eindrucksvoll gezeigt hatte, dass er auch selbst als sänger seiner songs extrem erfolgreich sein kann, verpflichtete der 30-jährige mit shootingstar john newman (love me again) eine der beeindruckendsten stimmen im internationalen pop-business. mit *blame* küpfte harris nahtlos an diese erfolge an: in großbritannien schoss die single von null auf eins, in deutschland rangierte der song bereits nach zwei wochen in den top 5 der media control charts. beide singles finden sich auf dem vierten calvin harris-album *motion*.

booty angel- feat. kid enigma ist die erste single aus till von seins zweitem solo-album -precious-. eine von ultimativer floor-enthemmung bis hin zu leichter schamesröte jede gefühlsregung triggernde nummer, die den vielleicht wichtigsten topos der r n b-geschichte aufgreift: das weibliche gesäß. johnjon kürzt aus dem original den funk heraus und nähert sich dafür aus der unterkühlten tech house-richtung. der discoide bounce und die bassline der tender games-adaption sind dem sexappeal des originals da sehr dicht auf den fersen. vervollständigt wird das remix-bundle durch eine jimpster-bearbeitung, die mit stehenden noten, percussion-geraschel und getunten vocals sämtliche deepness-potentiale des tracks herauskitzelt.
