funkalicious james is one half of disco-house super-duo childhood 87, along with his old pal le loup. their >caught up< edit on airdrops aux-rec imprint back in january 2010 got some mouths talking and feet sliding. funkalicious james is now back with his debut solo ep and airdrop is really glad to bring it to you on vinyl today. the parisian born producer prepared two explosive cuts for his a-side, starting things mellow with >call on groove< and speeding it up a notch on >broken hips<. on the flip, douze -- another young parisian producer who appeared on the last hold youth record by seuil and le loup -- brings back a certain touch of french filtering, in the classiest manner. finally, it didnt take us much time to figure out who would be the most appropriate airdrop trooper to round this record off… john spring signs the deal, with a feverish version

are you deep in tha groove? amazing bouncing and groovin 4 tracker. after the successful volume 1 eyepatch is back with an ass shacking and rhythm hunting vinyl.

2 limited edition remixes that have been excting dancefloors around the world on a few cdrs for about a year finally get a limited edition release… french re-edit legend pilooski takes the track to nycs legendary paradise garage in a dubbed out mid eighties electronic disco frenzy, the real alternative twist up the original … adding extra vocals and looping and editing the track into a 10 minute dancefloor killer…

aussie-based edit sensation, late nite tuff guy, joins forces with disco deviance to deliver two seriously heavy disco reworks that will set your dance floor on fire! having already produced several massive reconstructions over the last year the late nite tuff guy shows absolutely no signs of letting up…the beat just goes on and on as he takes re-editing up to the next level. hearing is believing… lovingly edited and re-mastered for 100% disco action. enjoy the music!

this release should have an all natural ingedients sticker on it. all sounds you hear are from traditional instruments - recorded on various occasions in ivory coast. it took mr raoul k quite some time to get his hand on all the raw materia he needed. he then cut it in bits and pieces and rearranged the sonic puzzle to a slowly evolving track. join his journey that starts in the cold of a desert at night. the temperature rises with the sun. when things heat up too much, you have to take a rest in the shadows beneath a tree. meet some fiends, talk and relax - but dont get lost. keep you groove alive and head toward your destination. choose vinyl, please!!!

on le rire ep jared wilson (7777 - skudge / detroit) leads the way with a pest chicago-house inspired rework, devilishly and deliciously analog without whittling down to a mere old-school homage, a sort of us-acid-dubstep version of addison groove, with a taste of slacker jak-beat for the nirvana generation! a melodic decomposer, scottish dam mantle (warp - ghostly international / glasgow) deceitfully feigns to mellow with what could at first glance seem like an edit. however deep excavations into the intense choir of >voyage vers l harmonie< leads to a surreal confrontation between a slum village like beat and a post-industrial version of melody nelson. thundery atmospheres, slippery slopes… the best way to pay tribute to luc marianni. famous for his duo as well as his label syncom data, nukubus (bunker / rotterdam) is nonetheless an inspired soloist, as this breathtaking remix once again proves. the 11 minutes long krautrock tunnel leaves many envious of its authenticity and sheer technical virtuosity. this swirling reinterpretation of mariannis work manages to leave the original behind and come into its own. its out of respect for the original work that nukubus requested to be credited only as a remixer. if youve bothered to read the few lines above, please remember it is both easier and wiser to form your own opinion with the vinyl in your own two hands. please note that the distribution of these eps will be accompanied by some very limited original editions of luc mariannis vinyls

melodic smasher from nico stojan and david keno including acid pauli edit!

double 10 inch release, pressed on transparent green vinyl.

so what is after the void ... we bang the bomb of course with a lady in a thong surrounded by snakes and hand grenades, obvious really! having been away for some time it appears that a light sounds dark spring is in the air. en route to their next destination (rumoured to be a dark subterranean world full of nasty mutants danger electrified tracks out this summer) with arms out the window and the mothership roof down, its full steam ahead and proper european dance music time. not really train spotting as before although a couple are a bit off piste like maltas very own ian dury by the name of iain richardson rapping about sitting on a green bus! much more like it however are classic italo covers of big in japan, gloria, a wonderful new wave version of falcos euro smash der kommissar and the thoughts massive german hit wait a long time sounding like some long lost talk talk record. light sounds dark do some minor tweaking (going for that natural look) to big beast anthems axodrys you and colme 111s you take me high (early euro take on chicago) and for lovers of something a bit more funky theres some groovy goings on from kraut funksters epsilon urging people to leave the city which might not be a bad idea if the water runs out.

die italienische kultgruppe kirlian camera kehrt mit einer epischen 6-song-ep zurück. immortal enthält eine beeindruckende neubearbeitung eines der beliebtesten stücke des letzten albums, nightglory , plus vier unveröffentlichte songs und einen club-kompatiblen remix des titeltracks von der italo-kanadischen band blank.

brill smoothin / soulful deep / disco house

ltd 2012 repress!! our favourite texas killer funk people go digging in their disco boxes to supply us with a new batch of edits and tracks on a value for money 12inch format.the yanks snip and tuck some of their favourite tracks from the 70s & 80s editing as they go extending, repeating and underlining their favourite elements of each track chosen. tried and trusted on the dance floors of baltimore to boston these cheeky slabs of wax will not be around for long so gettem while yo can!

another debut on basic fingers, this time we head over to japan and the mysterious kgo production team. the first edit is >six millions steps< by rahni harris, a well known soul drenched disco classic that has been slightly pitched down and infused with more boogie loveliness.
>something special< by donald byrd and the blackbyrds is both a pianists workout and a lovely jazz-disco track full of melodic character. kgos edit owes respect to the original and is a perennial favourite in the basic fingers camp.

following the war cry of their fi rst single >speeddance<,reptile youth return with another sublime 7inch for hfn music.the second single taken from their upcoming album >black swan born white< sees the youth expand their sound towards a grandiose post-punk pop. already a live favourite at their increasingly intense gigs, mads damsgaard kristiansen vocals soar above the funk-driven robo-rhythm, while an instantly addictive melody references their newwave roots.on the b side, londons futuristic psychedelic no-wavers s.c.u.m provide a remix that drenches the vocals in waves of reverb and suspense, before the track explodes into a churning power riff.

we are very proud and honered to release this ep by function aka dave sumner from sandwell district. one of technos true underground heroes, function (dave sumner) has been djing and making music for over 15 years. hailing from new york, he was seduced by techno music when jeff mills held a residency (as well as his own first) at the limelight in the early 90s. dave started to produce music and from the mid-90s onwards, put out music on damon wilds synewave and his own infrastructure imprint. together with regis (karl o connor) he worked as portion reform, putting out uncompromising music on downwards and becoming the only non-birmingham producer to release on the label. in 2008 dave moved to berlin, still working with regis, and now silent servant (john mendez), put his focus on the acclaimed sandwell district imprint. obsessed is a supper powerfull floating track for the dancefloor, a typical function production. this ep also contains remixes from substance and scb aka scuba, both peak-time tracks.

red earth records presents a new six-track ep. responding to popular demand, the title track >we re not leaving< is here presented in a radio-edit version (side 1, track 1), after having been released in an extended version last year on 7 inch vinyl. this will be plugged on uk radio this summer combined with a uk and european tour, preceding the release of the new soothsayers album in september.

when the house music phenomenon was beginning, chicago djs like ron hardy and new yorkers such as frankie knuckles and larry levan would edit records for their own purposes, removing the parts they felt to be superfluous, concentrating instead on extending grooves and hooks, often adding their own basic synth lines and toughening up the percussion with what have now become classic synthesizers and drum machines. warehouse classics vol.1 holds 4 killer tracks going from obscure disco to new wave, first popularised at the music box and rarely heard anywhere else. sir leon greg (another incarnation of perseus traxx) jams out then reinforces some edits of forgotten classics with a raw & personal analogue treatment for a devastating full effect on the dance floor, that is a far cry from the proliferation of over-produced squeaky-clean software edits. these are basic, raw ideas thrown down quickly and capturing the energy on 1/4 inch tape before moving on to the next set of sounds. musically, its as delightfully funky and uncomplicated as youd expect, a mesh of disco tracks and heavy, effect laden, machine-funk. essential item!!

from the tropics comes whiskey disco, a sneaky re-edit label bent on dredging the decanter for diffident dancefloor genius from latent disco perpetrators. its loosely connected to sleazy mcqueen and his assorted cohorts. whiskey disco no.13, ruff n stuff, can hardly be contained on a single plate of wax. all four tracks have been tested and audience approved! on the a, deep&discos rework of i wanna dance with somebody and alkalinos ruff n stuff are both stripped back and bass laden grooves. the b has two mid-tempo grooves from newcomer, debonair and portuguese duo, johnwaynes.

astonishing album by mark du mosch, who delivers his first full length album on syncom data records and it s quite simply overwhelming. in a true detroit fashion mark du mosch rides that fine line between techno, house and disco. that line which guides you to the dancefloor as well as a higher musical and emotional level. with salmiak mark du mosch shows he s not only a great dj, but one of hollands finest producers as well. absolute techno house killer bomb. don t sleep on it.

letzte auskopplung aus modeselektors bislang erfolgreichstem album monkeytown, das jüngst den echo kritikerpreis 2012 erhielt. >this< wurde - ähnlich >shipwreck< - auch zusammen mit thom yorke (radiohead) komponiert, die exklusive b-seite ist ein experimentelles rework seiner vocals. limitierte auflage von 1.000 stück weltweit in gelb-transparentem vinyl.

following two well-received 12 inch singles in 2011, bristols bedmo disco records – the sound of bedminster – returns in 2012 with something rather special: the debut reedits ep from longtime family member jimmy the twin.

this smashing and diverse tune has been getting biiiig response all across the globe with heavy support from the top including hatcha, n-type, plastician and a slew more.originally debuted on targets bbc 1xtra show,doctors pristine grime vocal studio work makes this track accompany a heavy sub-bass signature sound you can only get from musicians who immerse their lives into dubstep and spend time developing their own style.those such musicians are megalodon and conscious pilot.

first up is 92, a straight up jacking deep house number with, as the title suggests, a retro flavour. the deep repetitive pads are jacked up with amen break style drums that were used so widely in electronic music back in the 90s. some quirky synth lines and vocal licks here and there give the track its touch of soul and then a fat bass line to bring in the bottom end. high quality simple yet effective house music...

pure ghetto funk from washington dc, compiled and edited by joey negro.

for a short period in 1981 and with brand-new equipment such as roland 808, sh 101, gr 500, we made some 8-track just for fun jam tapes. mainly just to experiment for our own pleasure. from those sessions, only white horse made it to a final treatment. the rest of the material was left behind, as our record company at the time found it too different. after white horse being a track indeed defining our sound, we thought it would be interesting to dig out left-overs to fulfill a documentation of that period - crucial for us at the time. we were still innocent newcomers, without actually knowing to be creating a new sound! recently, that left-over material was transferred from analogue to digital and, to stay as true as possible to original intentions, we only added vocals, bass and drumbeats ahead of a final mix. we hope that you will enjoy listening to it. good vibes from laid back copenhagen 2012.
