DREAMALITY / LUCKY STARS (7 INCH)
7 Inch
16.08.19
two brilliant, previously unissued modern soul discoveries from the archive of u.t.b. mastermind andre gibson. “my lucky stars” rides the 120 bpm crest, with sharp horns, handclaps, triangle, and a wild guitar solo filling out the four and a half minute ride. “dreamality” cops a steve miller vibe and goes on a spaced-out future funk adventure.
OOOH, BABY (7 INCH)
7 Inch
16.08.19
first release of 2019 for ice city and this one needs no special introduction. one of the ultimate -crossover- soul records - ever. mid 70s chicago masterpiece pamoja written and produced by keith stevenson. -oooh, baby- is an uptempo soul groover designated to light up any proper dancefloor. due to its scarcity and overall demand, it has become a treasure hunt nightmare for cratediggers worldwide. finally, the official reissue is here! and if that s not enough, flip the 45 over and go deep on the ballad -only the lonely know-, with the throbbing, shrill falsetto vocals from keith himself.

LOVE OUR LOVE AFFAIR (7 INCH)
7 Inch
16.08.19
you just can t keep a man like carlton jumel smith down. this time around we get another soulful k.o. from his debut album in the form of -love our love affair-, a mid-tempo groover drawn from that sweet well of southern soul. one of the fortes of carlton s -1634 lexington ave.- lp is that it flows along as an entity but also revels in the strengths of its individual parts. this fourth single brings out another stylistic strain from carlton and cold diamond & mink s repertoire. after the tight intro and the vibraphone licks have set the scene there are twists and turns plus some classy action from jukka eskola on trumpet, did we mention the instrumental on the flip side? this single might be just the thing you needed to jump start the morning or blast in your sunday evening radio show.
