with sounds as smooth as butter and grooves as juicy as jam fillings, joe the baker gill has cooked up two fondant slabs of disco funk right here. theres a sweaty post-punk sheen to cant explain thanks its slaphappy bassline, fuzzy guitars and sultry vocals. mamba gascoine, meanwhile, is a foggier, swampy slice of cosmic, dub-minded funk designed for the darker, heads-down moments. remix-wise the everreliable emperor machine step forward with two epic, 10-minute workouts that explore every possible corner of joes jiggling, party-friendly groove.

purveyors of fine underground music, joes bakery, present undiscovered balearic beats, cosmic curveballs and obscure oddities from around the world. limited to 300 copies worldwide, the next release features three tribal, exotic & leftfield tracks from italian producer jose manuel with an added remix from the joes bakery band. music to be played by the pool or under the discoball

having previously kept their re-edit series in-house, leeds-based crate-diggers joe s bakery have invited moton (aka london veterans diesel and dave jarvis) to deliver the latest release. those who ve followed the moton records inc series (active since the 90s) will know what to expect: expert re-rubs of obscure material that get the right balance between dancefloor chops and home listening selections. look out for the odd shuffle and electric piano solos of -moody blues-, the percussive early 80s, synth-heavy live disco brilliance of -zoo- (yes, it s definitely balearic) and the hazy, midtempo disco-funk of -bumps-. it s getting progressively hard to find worthwhile re-edit 12- singles, but this one s a genuine killer
