this 12inch is pure trance. who is/are rita furstenhof? we have no idea who she/he/they are. the a1 track, the mighty -hadron collider- was sent to optimo music hq about 18 months ago. normally sending one track is not much use to a label, but this was so good that we instantly replied to say we wanted to release it. rita furstenhof works in mysterious ways, and it was 18 months until the other tracks for the ep arrived. along the way there were a few times when we thought they had completely vanished, and we were never going to have a complete ep, but finally, here it is.

the a&r edits return with a double-header from hot digits head honcho fingerman. the brighton producer grew up listening to his parents enviable steely dan record collection and for his comeback outing on a&r has retouched the de la soul-sampled classic, peg. a tight circle of djs have road tested this rework over recent times and we ve been inundated with requests for its release. in 1970, new york session drummer bill curtis merged the fatback jazz beat of new orleans into a street funk band and signed his outfit to perception records. over the next decade, they incorporated jazz and disco into their signature funk style, before moving in an r&b direction in the 80s. during this period, american pop success proved elusive, but the group made regular appearances in the uk singles chart, hitting the top twenty three times with (are you ready) do the bus stop , (do the) spanish hustle and i found lovin it s the latter, an anthem on the uk black music scene in 1984, that has been served up here by fingerman, a staple at his casablanca jazz club residency in brighton and now available on wax for the first time.

siren sind darshan jesrani (metro area, startree) und dennis kane (disques sinthomme, ghost town). sirens erste ernsten recording sessions fingen im winter 2013 an, aber die anfänge ihrer zusammenarbeit reichen weiter zurück bis zu ihren gemeinsamen residencies im berühmten new yorker hot-spot apt und anderen parties, die sie organisierten. events mit namen wie camille 3000, adult section und strobe lodge wurden liebevoll gestaltet, mit gewagt romantischen grafiken und einem prägnanten spezifischen statement, dass kultiviertheit und sünde stets zusammen gehören konnte und immer sollte. sirens erste maxi * gauntlet* ist ein unbändiger und satter song, der alles von heavy disco, über westafrikanische gitarren, soundtracks und filmmusik, bis adrian belew mit einbezieht. veröffenlicht auf compost im herbst 2014, wurde sie sowohl von top-djs, als auch von der presse gefeiert. ihre zweite single * a/way* mit mr. reed bildet nun einen stolzen und kühnen kontrast zur ersten 12 inch. ein sonniger, luftiger trip, ein triumphsong für einen ungehemmten, selbstbewussten lebensstil. geerdet durch eine markante aber eingängige bassline, die an norman whitfield erinnert, und verziert mit bläser-parts, die einen hauch von burt bacharach mitbringen, wird der song von einem zügellosen, fröhlichen gitarren-groove angetrieben, der den spirit vom aufgeweckten rock & roll der späten 60s & 70s in sich birgt. die sich erhebende, klagende stimme von mr. reed schnürt alles zu einem glorreichen, bittersüßen paket, welches direkt für das herz bestimmt ist.

january of 2016 will mark danny krivits 45th anniversary of djing. those decades have essentially spanned the entire arc of contemporary dance musics evolution and, as anyone whos heard him play will attest, danny does the same in his creative, far-reaching dj sets. what better way to mark a 45th anniversary than to release a 45rpm record? the latest offering from most excellent unlimited is a two-sided seven-inch that features danny touching up two percussive monsters that exemplify the down and dirty tribal vibe of the earliest, pre-disco dancefloors.

houmous pous tous is the first ep from unouzbeck & venturi for ostra discos. amazing energy on these new tracks.

sugar - a sweet track, some ones called it deep house, some others found it filtered disco house, anyway it brings flavour on the dancefloor, black or white you decide how much you want on your coffee, giving you a strong message of love, passion, and ecstasy, with the elegance and smooth that makes seducing yourself.

you could not miss the 4/4 kickdrum during the 90s in the rhein-main-area around frankfurt/germany. therefore phonk ds first attempts on house and techno were pretty successful during this period. but his feet being too big for just one dancefloor he developed a taste for funk, disco and hiphop, too. so all these influences kept on working together and - as a result - in 2014 he founded his own label footjob. three records have been released so far, all of them collaborations with friends, and now no.4 is ready to take off - being phonk ds first solo project: expect some heavy phonk to get your foot-job done!

peddling the most credible of disco edits – sexy and tasteful to a tight white tee – and accruing some serious acclaim from an illustrious roll call of heads in the know (including jeff mills, todd terje, richie hawtin, laurent garnier, ellen alien, steve lawler, carl cox, nic fanciulli, jackmaster, optimo and the don himself – sir greg wilson, who remixed lntgs one nite in a disco), the world is his and its about to blow up... 2015 pressing

we could call them the persuaders of disco: jestofunk member blade together with his friend leo tolu wanted to back to the italo 80s old-school. the house music sampling concept was strong and powerful element in all the jf related productions that blade wanted to keep also for this much fresh release. i don t wanna be drive to a nostalgic italo disco melody with a much groovy step... enjoy the summer... enjoy bella vita!

the second edition of the rose records limited 10- series comes courtesy of junktion, whose releases on the likes of outplay and slow town didn t only sell out at breakneck speed but also established him as one of holland s biggest talents in discerning deephouse/disco circles. junktion does what he does best on this delightful little platter. the lolloping running for whatever on the a is as infectious as they come, with loads of clever samples arranged over classy rolling drums and a deep, rubbery bassline. flip over for pale blue dot, a slightly tougher, trippier uptempo workout with spaced out pads, big drums, crisp hats and massive synth stabs that should whip up a real frenzy in a packed club. killer pair of tunes from a producer that s very much on top of his game.

a booming clavinet led banger from everyones favourite disco uncles, eric duncan and dean meredith. heavy on the lasers and scything hi hats with a bassline as deep as you would expect from these fellers. marcellus trademark sound is all over his remix - sultry rhodes and sweet, driving funk, and the central executives version strips it to the bone, revealing not a skeleton but a robot. a robot playing a fucking saxophone! rock on, dudes. golf channel every time!

perhaps it is something in the water or just plain vodka, we really have no idea but one thing is for sure - there is something special about those moscow disco heads. they sure know how to find a perfect beat and re-edit it to perfection. after lay-far it is now time for arsenii to step into the basic fingers arena. both sides on this 12 are filled with jazz-funk and library infused disco at its best. *allegria* sounds like bob james is jamming with the headhunters and on the flip *turbo* with its generous use of synthesizers almost has an outer space theme. essential indulgence for disco heads & connoisseurs everywhere.

brand new excursion into eastern territories curated by zambon of the very polish cut-outs and transatlantyk fame. five obscure disco tracks from late soviet era edited, reworked and remixed into dancefloor bliss by creme de la creme of russian and belarusian producers. among the editors we will find leonid lipelis (known from collaborating with brennan green and his own label thats a steal, here working under the alias beard in dust), moscow based diggers crew shiny boots grodno based edit wunderkind schmoltz, st. petersburgs krjuk and the papers from ekaterinburg. tracks range from balearic pop stomp of alla pugachevas *kafe*, through to the blue-eyed slavic soul of tatiana kochergina, to big band funk full of breaks and even russian disco rap with baby scratches! drink some vodka and taste the disco sound of the soviet union.

blue mondays is a project of alex ferrazzi and keemani. both vinyl collectors and involved within the italian underground scene from the beginning of the early 2000s, they grew up cultivating different backgrounds, alex was always into disco and old school house music while keemani was more into new wave and rock vibes. merging their backgrounds inside the studio, they come to you with a dance floor oriented sound spanning nu disco to techno, based on dope beats, smoked out samples, deep basslines, and uplifting vibes.
