combo lulo returns to names you can trust for their sophomore single, digging deeper into the diversified sounds of the caribbean that helped define their debut. while the first single took a jamaican foundation south into the neighboring continent, fusing the sensibilities of rock steady with those of classic afro-latin orchestras, this single goes far east. inspired by the heady and sublime sounds of foundational ska mixed with east african influences, (think buster s islam, don d s addis ababa or further east), the sieve & the sand is a brand new composition within this natural order, albeit with the fortune of different reggae eras and studio styles to draw from. divided into two parts (but also available seamlessly as it was played in the studio), combo lulo s talented players move effortlessly from the galloping shuffle of ska into a deep and dark, roots radics-styled instrumental. its a lovely ode to the original styles of reggae, but also another impressive accomplishment that will surely leave listeners and new fans in anticipation of the shape of things to come for combo lulo.

the 2008 album from n*e*r*d back on double vinyl.

after metropolitan jazz affair, the dynamics and mr president, master of musical ubiquity bruno ?patchworks? hovart proudly presents uptown funk empire, a burning tribute to one of his all time greatest loves: funk. bruno ?patchworks? hovart, as a self-taught musician and typical teenager, started playling guitar, bass and keyboards at age 15, covering james brown, jimi hendrix and cream in his bedroom and, later in college bands. his first releases are in the mid 90s, with deep house and disco live bands and various electronic projects. he quickly develops and shows very special skills for vintage disco/funk productions with a contemporary flavor. this gifted boy?s been working with artists such as amp fiddler, archie shepp, mr day, paul randolph... and for many recording labels such as i still music (usa), favorite recordings (france), infracom (germany), further out (uk)... uptown funk empire is an exciting and ambitious project, worthy of its name. while the first album is simply called ?the empire strikes back?, it?s no joke... forget the whole revival thing, this sounds like an actual rebirth of the real funky stuff. it?s like being back to the better days of funk without a travel machine... the vibe is vintage but the sound is fresh...that?s not funky music, that?s funky music !
this album is huge and it covers all the golden age groove styles : boogaloo, soul, disco, boogie, funk... but the music flows in the hands of a gifted modern producer. bruno ? patchworks? hovart plays bass, keyboards, computers... handling with love all composition, programming, arrangements, vocals... with brilliant vocal featurings by silky juan rozoff, brit-soul legend noel mc koy at his best, high-voltage divas ange & janice... and the funkysoul brother bruno ?patchworks? hovart himself on the mic... it?s pure funkiness ! beware, ?the empire strikes back? and is kicking... so get up & dance !

italo electro boogie-knaller mit einem komischen rap auf italienisch und im piemontesischen dialekt. auf der anderen seite liefert pellegrino von early sounds recordings einen alternativen mix und einen instrumental-dub. limitiert auf 500 handnummerierte exemplare sowie eine exklusive einlage mit liedtext und zusätzlichen liner notes.

started out as a reggae, lovers rock band in the late 70’s, the cool notes consolidated their reputation in the 80s, after turning towards more soulful sounds and have signed different hits, all finished straight into the upper parts of the charts. “i wanna dance” and “blown it” released for the sour grape label owned by patrick mulpeter and danny ryan, both former member of the band gold, are two gems inexplicably left in the shadows, but as often happens, later appreciated as essential spins, in the selection of champion djs.

never underestimate the power of a good bassline. mark du mosch certainly doesn’t. this veteran from the harbor city of rotterdam let’s his vicious bass line creep up on you from behind on 202 ac ra. a dark and jacking club belter with clear chicago roots. the five track ep the heavens may be his debut on sohaso, du mosch has been releasing music for over fourteen years on a variety of respected underground labels, such as moustache, dekmantel and royal oak. his versatile style draws on sounds that evoke strong mental imagery and a sense of eternity, which clearly shows on the introspective resonance delay (she) on the b-side. in which a melancholic melody is supported by muffled slow motion beats. the beautiful artwork on the heavens ep is by joost stokhof, an amsterdam based graphic designer who is known for his love for detail. which makes him perfectly suited for du mosch’ subtle and well crafted dance tunes. in a normal world you would open your ep with the title track. du mosch chooses to close with it. the heavens stays true to it’s name. a harp like melody that washes ashore as foam from a greyblue northsea that calmed down after the storm. heaven indeed

those who only know them from their inescapable chart-toppers of the 80s may be surprised to learn that pop-rock icons the police hold a firm spot in the hearts of dancers weaned on the sounds of the loft, the paradise garage, body & soul and other legendary music meccas. danny krivit, one of the founders of body & soul and a veteran of the loft and the garage would certainly agree. the two songs featured on the latest in most excellent unlimited s series of 7-inch edits from mr. k are both bonafide sureshots, and until now have been devilishly tricky to find in the 45 format. naturally, when danny krivit sits down to edit anthems of this magnitude, he knows exactly what to emphasize and extend, leaving us with a can t-miss addition to any djs gig box. this single exemplifies meu s commitment to audiophile sonic quality tailored for the dance floor.
