the shapeshifters’ studio mastery and dedication to his craft has resulted in singles that stand up alongside golden era disco records as much as they sound fresh on dancefloors today. his rich relationship with glitterbox has yielded instant classics that epitomise the label’s ethos for preserving disco’s mission to uplift and empower, especially with his latest release and debut collaboration with the grammy, tony and emmy award-winning billy porter, ‘finally ready’. now, another of the label’s nearest and dearest, dimitri from paris, steps up to remix the shapeshifters’ latest on a special 7” vinyl package. co-written with billy as a declaration of pride, dimitri adds his signature stylish flare onto the suitably theatrical original. split into two parts, pt. i on the a-side keeps billy’s unmistakable vocal at centre stage, with funk-fuelled organ chords and rich keys bringing dimitri’s sound of paris. on the flip, pt. ii is a more stripped back version, allowing the classic disco instrumentals to really shine, as a previously unheard and powerful spoken-word vocal from billy narrates along with improvised vocals taken from the studio recordings. expertly crafted and brimming with emotion, the joyful message of ‘finally ready’ rings true through billy’s lyrics on both mixes, as dimitri from paris brings a new dimension to this dancefloor essential.

a miramar is a place from which you can see the ocean. the bolero group, miramar, chose this word as their name to evoke a place of peace, reflection and solace for a broken heart. even the bolero, a romantic music born in cuba in the 1800s, might have been conceived by the seaside. in the 50s and 60s it became the quintessential musical expression of romance in latin america. it is this era of the music from which miramar draws their inspiration. urgencia (or urgency), tells of the desperation a heart feels when it is swept away by romance, but risks all for fear of not having another chance at love. the flip, salida means a way out. it is a song about the surrender that comes after trying to break free from the darkest of places, of endless frustration and sadness. the lyrics allude, but never tell.

in the late 80s i started listening to uk radio stations when i was a little kid and i instantly fell in love with the acid sound and rave movement that was portrayed on those uk dance shows. when i got old enough to attend clubs and warehouse raves, to experience the movement first hand, it was a nobrainer for me that the music and the lifestyle was my call. lately…. in my dj sets and when producing music… i have been time travelling back to those days. back to how i remember the music i fell so deeply in love with and that is exactly what you hear on this “done/undone” release. for the “done” track i teamed up with cari golden to have a female spoken word and a great message to build the music around. i always prefer to do original vocal recordings rather than using samples. cari understood 100% what i was after and i love the lyrics and execution by her. the spoken word is centered, very clear and deep to contrast the constantly building intensity of the acid patterns and thumping beats. “undone” is instrumental and has a more straight forward flow to it. it’s quite simple although the shifting groove patterns might surprise some. i was torn between two different acid patterns and decided to drop one of them as a surprise change. playing the track in clubs i quickly learned that the change of dynamics had a great effect. both tracks have been wrapped in dark-themed chords and atmosphere. both tracks have my take on the sound i fell in love with years ago and obviously still love today. i hope you like what you hear.

since 2010, buyepongo has led a steadily growing los angeles underground movement that combines the vast influence of traditional tropical sounds with the streetwise edges of the latin american diaspora. much like their name implies (translation: to cause a ruckus), their hybrid style is focused on the celebration, an infectious, energetic vibe that is universally and rhythmically connected. it ll get your feet moving, and much like many of the records from the golden age of cumbia, these two offerings demonstrate an updated and adapted reverence for the roots that is truly distinct to their own unique place and time. for the group s latest single, that place, the sprawling latinx scene east of los angeles, met head on with the east coast hot pot of brooklyn. recorded and produced in collaboration with names you can trust during the band s serendipitous 2017 trip to nyc, this new release takes two of buyepongo s most fan-favored and party-tested original songs, two that had yet to be recorded, and combines them with the nyct forty-five ethos: a stripped-down, warm analog recording that perfectly captures buye s live, bring-the-ruckus style in the room as it happened. por la vida romps over the a-side, a modern-day classic in the making whose lyrics (how beautiful is life, always full of surprises) compliment a sunny, easy-going house party vibe, while miri on the flip evolves from a loping, almost reggae groove into a transcendent journey through caribbean feel-good sounds.
