they say that good things come in threes… it must be true and favorite recordings also proudly presents the third edition of its acclaimed french disco boogie sounds compilation series. like on prior volumes, the complete tracklist is selected by label head honcho, charles maurice (aka pascal rioux), who’s unearthed 13 more forgotten and hidden tracks, all produced whether in france, in french, or by french artists between 1977 and 1987. with most of these titles now very hard to find in their original edition and unknown by many, this compilation should be a must have for any disco-boogie-funk music lover and collector. fully remastered from originals at the carvery cut (uk), french disco boogie sounds vol.3 (1977-1987, selected by charles maurice) is presented by favorite recordings in a gatefold vinyl double lp
morphine records continue to unearth recordings from philadelphias synth pioneer, charles cohen. two beautiful drone/ambient/jazz pieces on this one (recorded live in 1989), exposing the sonic genius and dexterity of cohen alongside the astounding possibilities of that highly desirable synthesizer of his! tip!
having a debut that managed to possibly be the most regularly outed track by andrew weatherall as he dug deep to discover the sound that resonated as a love from outer space, while at the same time seemingly slipping under the radar of practically everyone else and disappear in to relative cult obscurity is some mean feet
the soft rocks camp launches a newly minted label in the shape of kinfolk, whose intention is to showcase rising talent and fully indulge the experimental. the first release from maurice & charles smacks it right in the spot - you may have enjoyed the loose vocal acid throb of a side hugger moroder in milan on sir wevver s recent 6 mix show. there isn t a recommendation that comes any higher than that! on the flip, mo & charlie indulge their floaty balearic side with underneath the universe which also contains a pleasant undercurrent of bubbling acid. the same track is twisted inside out and taken to the new forest by the soft rocks crew themselves on an expansive dubbed out refix notable for some rather tasty metallic 808 hits
