it’s now pretty obvious that disco influence has not only been powerful in western clubs. it has also influenced musicians all around the world, and west-indies islands are no exception to the rule. indeed, at that time in the caribbean territories, local musicians and producers seized the sound of their us counterparts, and make it their own, melting-up disco, funk, and boogie (even early rap) elements with some more traditional or local styles. apart from some obvious titles which made it to the charts, very few was known on these productions until recently. from an initial pre-selection of 40 tracks, favorite recordings and waxist teamed up to narrow down the actual tracklist. with no pretention to be exhaustive, this selection represents a tiny sample of a broader ocean of quality caribbean disco/boogie tunes. favorite recordings & waxist are very happy and proud to bring back lights on some of these rare tunes.

von der reeperbahn ins künstlerviertel - von großer freiheit zur münchner freiheit, von hamburg nach münchen -- genauer gesagt nach schwabing, dem ortsteil münchens, der in den 60er- und 70er-jahren aufgrund der kulturellen vielfalt abseits des sonst eher konservativen münchens (natürlich -- man ist ja in bayern) bei den hipstern schwer angesagt war und noch heute vom damaligen ruhm zehrt. den dazu passenden soundtrack schwabing affairs liefert einmal mehr das kölner diggler label (ob der dritte teil der serie porz affairs heißen wird?), welches erneut die archive nach soundtracks aus der halbwelt durchwühlt hat, um den zumindest musikalischen flair schwabings wiederzubeleben.

limitiertes doppel-vinyl im klappcover.
was wäre das leben ohne erotik? das dachte sich einmal mehr das diggler-label und setzt nach kurzen ausflügen in die science fiction seine berüchtigte serie the erotic world of... mit einer zusammenstellung des österreichischen komponisten gerhard heinz fort. das musikalische dargebotene spektrum könnte dabei nicht breiter sein: kiffer-rock, bossa nova, schlager, schmalz -- heinz lässt nichts unberührt und die cinematografischen glanzlichter à la liebesspiele junger mädchen, ich mache alles mit oder auch insel der 1000 freuden noch besser flutschen. gleich 19 mal wird die schönste sache der welt unverkrampft und mit gelegentlichem augenzwinkern besungen und bestöhnt, als gäbe es kein morgen mehr. aufgrund der stilistischen vielfalt ist abwechslung in jeder hinsicht garantiert: kaum hat man sich von dem anrüchigen -come shoot- (gesungen von the background studio groupies) erholt, wird man mit dem gleichermaßen schrägen wie furchtbaren -dampfnudeln- (aus dem streifen geh, zieh dein dirndl aus) schnell auf den boden der tatsachen zurückgeholt.

in the beginning of 1991 marius kuilenberg and maarten van der vleuten teamed up together and recorded two eeps for djax, *magic moments* and *...gives you central house*. marius being a dj with a great feeling for production and with a large collection of samples and maarten being a musician/technician with an own studio, turned out to be a good combination. after the two releases mentioned above, marius and maarten split up. marius focused on dj-ing only and maarten continued working as major malfunction on his own.

back in stock on 25.02.2016 , arapu has maintained a steady flow of releases over the past few years and hes one of the usual suspects in the underground scene. his elegant mixture of housy elements on a techno backbone gained him early support from his peers. successful stints on labels like memoria, crazy jack, motif and mrr led him to confidently start his own outlet. liniar debuts with a three tracker from the man himself.
broken grooves are almost always present in arapus productions and pitfall is no different. with a trippy synth that goes all the way and effected voices to go along, this track rules the night and the whole a side.
two tracks found their way on the b side and their flavour is quite different. escape is a pure deep house gem, and a clear indication of arapus soulful influence. extremely danceable and super uplifting, this track brings the summer back. wasting on the other hand is dark and has a dirty broken tech groove. this track may seem toolish but it s a monster when it hits.

craig peyton was a mainstay in nyc jazz and dance music beginning in the 70s. from playing on dan hartmans -vertigo/relight my fire- to his work on boogie funk productions with daryl payne, he is one of the unsung heroes of the era where disco transitioned into house music. his drum machine and synth based cover of william devaughans -just be thankful- came out on profile records in 1983, a daring move for a white man trained on the vibes. he gives the jam a haunting and funky rework that has only escalated in popularity over the years. it has been bootlegged extensively while original copies remain quite elusive.

nice price deal !!! future times is back in the mix, expanding the sound and vision of the label with the latest in their compilation series, vibe 3!

groove line records are proud to add to their 2015 releases of half-speed mastered re-issue singles with both the extended special disco version and instrumental version of earth wind & fire s 1976 funk bomb getaway gracing each side of a 180g 12” virgin vinyl disc. looking to gain on his groups critical and commercial success from the early 1970s ew&f s main man maurice white brought in the legendary charles stepney, who had tutored him at chicago s chess records in the 1960s, as the co-producer and arranger on their incredible 1976 album spirit, which opened up with the formidable funk track getaway. co-written by guitarist, vocalist and songwriter bernard “beloyd” taylor (s.o.u.l.) and songwriter peter corbelenky around the theme of escapism and self-fulfilment, the primal urgency of getaway was the ideal composition for white to record with ew&f. white felt the song s energy and positive, uplifting lyrics matched the attitude and ethos of his group perfectly. as a result ew&f created a funk gem both musically and lyrically perfect for the dance floor.

gdm (glaswegian dance music) pioneer - sparky (aka dave clark) is back on numbers. having spent the last year on lockdown in his luxurious garden studio we have finally managed to wrestle two tracks out of his ageing hands. signals is an all-new track, first heard on dave’s essential mix for bbc radio 1 (aired as part of jackmaster s made in glasgow), and now in the sets of ben ufo and jd twitch. signals is classic sparky, nailing that sweet spot between the proto-techno sounds of british synth pop and the dancefloor nous of the motor city. the flip is a snarling metal-bashing beast called tigress which comes direct from his archives. we ve been on at him to release this one for almost a decade and after playing a 192 mp3 at a pretty boisterous numbers x optimo party last summer, sparky finally relented. one day we ll convince sparky to let us release all the music sitting in his vaults but for now here are two gems from a man whose music has played a pivotal role in the history of numbers.

transmitting from new york (via toronto), jex aka jex opolis has so far been known as the man behind and in front of the good timin label. infamous for its boogie burner bombs to quote discogs member kutter karlo jex, trades his label for running back and a shifts the gear. up with the tempo and down with the lights, there still is a variety of styles. studio e is named after an after hours spot in edmonton that the record s author partied at in the early 2000s, also sounds like something ivan smagghe would have enjoyed at that point in time. laxmi tool is referencing classic tribal house and a street in pune, where jex wifes grandma bought the drum used in this track. on the flip, harpa brags and boasts with its trampoline bass line, while la casa surfs some timpani waves.

der nigerianische musiker fela kuti gilt als begründer des -afrobeat-. das label knitting factory legt nun verschiedene werke aus dem backcatalogue als vinyl-edition vor. -na poi- ist 180g schwer und mit einem download-code ausgestattet. 1971 aufgenommen, ist dieses album maßgeblich von einer reise fela kutis in die usa beeinflusst. dort traf er sich mit musikern wie the last poets, james brown und sly stone. die drei langen stücke sind von einem sich endlos wiederholenden percussion-getriebenen funk geprägt, wie man ihn in den usa von bands wie parliament und funkadelic kennt. das phantastische schlagzeug-spiel von tony allen ist dabei ebenso maßgeblich, wie die prägnanten bläser-sätze.

out on the floor firecrackers that ignited the northern soul boom on soul for dancers, journalist (mojo, record collector) and r&b authority lois wilson takes a trip back in time to the rare soul scene s roots, to where it all began if you like. many of the 32 tracks on this 2lp vinyl set (selected from the 61-track 2cd compilation) filled the floor at manchester s the twisted wheel and london s the scene club, both precursors of the wigan casino, blackpool mecca, the golden torch in stoke et al. the sparks that lit the fuse, these early triumphs would give rise to an era defining scene, one which became a treasured subcultural phenomenon.

b-stock! one corner is broken. bolstered by the unshakable body of work behind it, brooklyn-born berlin-based techno label chronicle reaches its milestone tenth release with its gaze fixed dead ahead. ten releases in, it pays to make a strong, defiant statement of intent, toasting to what the label has been about so far. more important though is to remind those tuned in to take heed, because the next step is always the most significant. from the artists crafting the music at its beating heart to the all-important design that packages the records, chronicle is a label that pulls no punches in its creative vision. given that the vision in question matches unbridled futurism with elegance and intensity, consider this a warning is a fitting title for a salvo of sounds that set the tone for where chronicle will head in its coming chapters.
