phillys instant funk are one of salsouls most well-known and respected groups. appearing on the legendary tsop label in 1976 the outfit was renowned for their ultra-tight musicianship and for backing disco icon bunny sigler as his group. the late 1970s saw them sign to nycs salsoul label and this is the point where this compilation comes to life. i got my mind made up was the groups opening shot on salsoul and was a huge hit for them, helped in part by a super long, stripped back and funked out remix by paradise garage jock larry levan. this track and a whole host of others feature on this amazing compilation and snapshot of one of disco s toughest rhythm sections, boasting all their hits and some stellar mixes from levan, tom moulton, john morales, francois kevorkian, shep pettibone and more! this whole selection features the mixes in their 12inch glory, unedited, end to end, as intended. a truly essential package for the die-hard disco aficionado or for those who are exploring this most important movement in dance music for the first time. curated with the full input and backing of salsoul records and carefully selected to reflect the truly timeless nature of the music contained within. for listening, for dancing, for turning on a party! remastered by optimum mastering. artwork & design by million dollar disco. fully authorised and approved by salsoul records.
with releases on hartchef, frankie, moon harbour, morris/audio or frankie, tom ellis is top funk jammer! his >rum scum< release is a special triple-layer deep-fill extravaganza of an ep! tom supplies the main ingredients, kicking things off on the a-side with bleeps, beats and basslines exploding into chunky dancefloor fillers. on the b-side, its fab frech producer skat (well know for his releases on karat) adding his deep and tricky flavour to >rum scum<!
pleasure zone welcomes boutiq.808 & tom marvin to the label family! this very talented duo delivers here a sweet breaky & groovy debut ep for us. highly recommended!
