reissue of a classic! the label: tk records in essence represents the city of miami when it came to soul/r&b and the early stages of disco. in 1974, george mccrae gave the label its first no. 1 disco hit with rock your baby. a little more than a year after mccrae s hit, the record label struck gold with kc & the sunshine band with five 1 songs on the billboard hot 100. needless to say at the height of the genreÆs cultural domination tk did pretty well.

re issue of timmy thomas s long sought after -afrcaino- 12- excavated from the deepest realms of the tk disco vaults. when it comes to this deep disco cut, africano is one of those tracks that became a dancefloor favorite of danielle baldelli who during the 80s played disco, african records, american r&b, and reggae to create what has been since become known as the afro-cosmic scene at the height of club culture in the discotheques of northern italy. remastered, represented and brought back into focus for 2017 s dj bags and dance-floors! as usual, these tk represses are always done in the proper manner. 100% legit re-edits, from the archive, remastered and released in conjunction with henry stone music / tk disco - miami fl.

mit africano piano schliessen cosmic cowboys an den erfolg ihrer letzten veröffentlichung auf dem hamburger label musik gewinnt freunde an. die ep kommt im januar 2010 in die läden und erneut zeigen uns die beiden jungs aus venedig, wie schön techno mit einer note dub klingt. die a seite öffnet mit einem deepen track, der sich zu einem intensiven peak hochschraubt, und durch ein episches vocal besticht. auf der b seite befindet sich mit >say that you will stay< ein ruhigeres, aber nicht minder schönes stück. liebesverlockungen gleich spielen sich diese tracks mit harmonischen piano klängen und sanften streichern in unsere herzen. eine großartige ep für lange wintertage.

those who experienced listening to the original maria rita version of -cântico brasileiro nº3 (kamaiurá)- on the dancefloor know it’s such a thrilling experience that could only be better if the song was a bit longer. at the same time, it didn’t make much sense to mess with the original. having these thoughts on their minds, the selvagem boys augusto olivani and millos kaiser (the minds behind selva discos) had an insight while discussing the reissue of the -brasileira- material with singer maria rita stumpf: why not hit the studio and remake the track? also, why not ask someone like joakim, known for his exquisite taste and brilliant production skills, to remix -lamento africano/rictus-? it would be the perfect package. and that’s what happened.

these songs represent but a small sampling of the fruits of a flowering in brazilian creativity. the innovations in structure, lyrics and arrangements, combined with a very restrained but heartfelt intensity, are unique to brazilian pop music… and in their own way, are as radical, seductive and beautiful as the best english language pop.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

an original copy of the brasileira lp by brazilian singer maria rita stumpf has been on top of collectors and music lovers wishlist for the past couple of years, since cântico brasileiro no 3 (kamaiura)- broke out and cast a spell worldwide – from japan to brazil, from norway to south africa, everybody was flabbergasted after they first heard the song, and each and every time they heard it again. for the lucky ones that could listen to her whole album – and get to know other gems such as lamento africano/rictus and a cidade it is clear that it is an ouvre that more people should have access to, not only an elite of listeners and connaisseurs. the good news are that the lp will be available again in its entirety in a new, glossy, loud and clear pressing released through selva discos, a new label run by augusto olivani and millos kaiser (the dj/production duo known as selvagem) in partnership with jd twitch s optimo music. it s a legit reissue overviewed by maria rita stumpf herself, the music being remastered from the remaining dat tape of the original release and artwork faithfully updated by brazilian design studio colletivo, featuring liner notes by the singer/songwriter.

a highly personal selection of modern soul, disco and a little touch of boogie, these rare tracks have all been respectfully edited, chopped up or extended by mark himself. apart from the odd private vinyl pressing, or occasionally handing an edit over to close friends and djs such as fellow bbe artist sadar bahar, mark has never before made these tracks available (despite the throng of people waiting around to ask each time he finishes a set).
