-soca trance- will bring some extra heat on the dance floor, it s a heavily cut-up, rough electronic soca rhythm with fragments of looped steeldrum melody on top. -i m alive- is another latin banger, a piece of proto house with some lush vocals in the background and a synthesized tropical bird flying over. on the flip, kalao is an underground afro/french drum track with lots of flanged percussion, cheering black vocals and an elephant passing by. body & soul is the most discoish edit of all: a hypnotic groove with a killer baseline (and a flute sound) interrupted by an uplifting drumbreak.

>kuala< the a-side track is an ethno natured track with lively bassline and uplifting small melody stabs, smithereens of vocals and a superb drive. beneath all of this you find the kaiserdisco fx department works with every possible production skill to keep the seemingly never ending loop active and rocking. >kuala< is a firework of a rhythm monster!
for the more traditional kaiserdisco fan, you will find on the flipside with >singa< another powerful tool of a track. kaiserdisco keep a beat tight and introduce a lot of rising cool sounds building up lots of vertical hands up in the air energy!

soundway releases new compilation of rare 1980s south african ‘bubblegum’ & boogie
in 1980s black south africa a local form of pop music evolved as the disco boom died down and slowly mutated. it was often ubiquitously described as bubblegum - usually stripped-down and lo-fi with a predominance of synths, keyboards and drum-machines and overlaid with the kind of deeply soulful trademark vocals and harmonies that south african music is famous for. compilers miles cleret (soundway) and dj okapi (afrosynth records) present a selection of 18 rare, handpicked 1980s cuts that highlight the period that nestles in between the ‘70s (where american-influenced jazz, funk and soul bumped shoulders with local mbaqanga) and the ‘90s when kwaito and eventually house-music ruled the dancefloors of urban south africa.

just in time for the season, seaside maestro jean claude gavri returns with this long awaited 3rd instalment of the seaside edits series. both tracks on side a are top notch 117 afro disco floor fillers by disco tech & lillo carillo. on the flip, the man himself label owner jcg is giving us a sneak peek inside his vinyl vault with off broadway, a balearic afro synth heaven, for these very lucky few that earned their ticket to the deeper zones of your collection.
