nycs escort, founded by eugene cho and dan balis and fronted by the enormous vocals of lead singer adeline michèle, delivers a danceable blend of disco, funk & soul that pays homage to the classics while remaining fresh and modern. mysterious dance duo tiger & woods are known for cutting pop melodies with sourced disco, boogie & funk edits. check out the *barbarians* (tiger & woods remix) space invader where it premiered with pitchfork. following a critically acclaimed self-titled debut album that was hailed as one of the best albums of 2012 by both spin and rolling stone, escort will release the 12 inch vinyl package complete with remixes by italian nu disco kings tiger & woods, jkriv of deep&disco/razor-n-tape and a dub by the mysterious rance muhammitz.

following the stunning album that (finally) surfaced on tirk records last year, seventeen-piece live disco band escort arrive on sister label nang via red music by popular demand with two of the most prevalent cuts from the album, cameleon chameleon & starlight, remixed by anglo-japanese powerhouse max essa, and red records label boss and ilija rudman. ilijas cut of cameleon chameleon is as funky as they come, enveloping strains of the originalin his silken synth work and driving dance-floor percussion. edits of adeline micheles vocal hook are teased in throughout, beautifully done but never deriving from the fact that this is strict dancefloor stuff. next up, max essa delivers a stomping rendition of long time favourite, starlight. his cut stays true to the original, retaining vibe, funk and feeling, but giving it that subtle injection of house that is just made for peak time at the dance. if you like your disco live, the escort collective has a couple of uk dates penned in for march / april 2012, so keep em peeled!

it might seem odd for a band without a full-length to enjoy this sort of praise. but escort is definitely not your typical band. escort is big. literally. the seventeen-member disco orchestra, founded by producers eugene cho and dan balis, and fronted by lead singer adeline michele, features an incredible cast of musicians who have played with everyone from indie-rock titans arcade fire to avant-classical luminaries alarm will sound. scissor sisters frontman jake shears recently described escort as the >best disco you have ever heard<. he just might be right.

escort have been setting dance floors ablaze with their disco-infused beats, irresistibly catchy hooks and seductive live show since releasing a series of 12 inch singles in 2006. the 17-member disco orchestra, founded by producers eugene cho and dan balis, and fronted by lead singer adeline michele, features an incredible cast of musicians who have played with everyone from indie-rock titans arcade fire to avant-classical luminaries alarm will sound. >cameleon chameleon< is a theatrical masterpiece about the french serial impostor frederic bourdin, set to a beat that is equal parts thriller and the tom tom club.

this new escort is an amazing balance of 80s disco funk and techy electro for 2007. already seeing dj support from ewan pearson to trevor jackson to metro area. with a remix from the rapture gracing the full length b-side this one is the sure shot. the original come off like the bastard chile of prince and teena marie conceived at a swingers party hosted by rick james. the rapture deliver an epic minimal electro mix that starts off way in the depths and ends up being remniscent of >plastic dreams< with hypnotic piano chords. both sides of this 12inch are so different yet so slammin

funky very classic sounding disco track with sweet female vocals includes darshan jesrani dub mix

re-issue album includes relevant single releases, a 7” booklet with lyrics, and new sleeve notes by the members of the band.

rarefied return after a deliciously jazzy release from their sister label. this time label mainstay zygos is at the helm for a release that blends rarefied’s penchant for outer-national sample digging, trap rhythmic formations, and psychedelic soundfields for a three track ep that feels like some other-wordly vhs tape found in the woods.

sven atterton‘s much anticipated follow up to ‘the cove’, thematically named ‘the cape’, drops on his newly formed cruise club records. anyone that’s experienced the wonder of sven live, is well aware of the prowess and apparent effortlessness he possesses on stage. as at home laying it down on a synth, as he is tearing it up on the bass, ‘the cape’ showcases modern synth boogie as good as anyone at present.
‘taboo’, one of many highlights, demonstrates both sven’s skills as a multi-instrumentalist and as an accomplished producer. flexing those 80’s linndrum hits, getting spiritual on the keys, whilst layering that full frontal bass and dreamy pads – it’s a nod to the past, whilst re-imagining it for the modern age. and considering the cost sven’s debut album now goes for on discogs, ‘the cape’ is one to snap up on sight.

die blitzgescheiten punk-soul-brüder melden sich zurück. es geschehen noch zeichen und wunder: schlappe zweieinhalb jahre nach ihrem letzten album -why not?- (2008) legen die sympathischen sonderlinge von superpunk ein neues album vor. nicht nur das: -die seele des menschen unter superpunk- ist das album, das man sich von superpunk (und auch von jeder anderen band) immer gewünscht hätte. die platte ist ein zärtliches und schmunzelndes -fuck you!- an, und jetzt kommt’s: die umstände. die lässigkeit und die größe, sich bei total aus der mode gekommenen musikstilen zu bedienen, die verachtung für die masse und die eliten, die textliche und musikalische autonomie - all das hat auf -die seele des menschen unter superpunk- sein zuhause gefunden. nennen wir es stil: rumpeln und groove, doo wop und 60s punk, angebertum und bescheidenheit schließen sich eben bei superpunk nicht aus. denn die blitzgescheiten genussmenschen sind musterschüler des punks, und dessen erste regel lautet nun mal: du sollst nicht langweilen! produziert wurde das album vom hamburger soulbrother bernd begemann.

like a slug persistently stuck to the bottom of a half-pipe in the community park over which there has been much debate, grey people has long been making tracks within proximity of the teenage forbidden zone from the detached, elemental perspective of a dark, moist creature. cryogenically frozen should we be? schwarzenegger cries liquid nitrogen teardrops but allows you entree to the dance floor, filled with the icy carved physiques of electro snowmen. coma tunnel makes going flatline sound beautiful and sad. the fluorescent hum of the bulbs lighting the conical ceramic passage to oblivion provides a nostalgic pillow to press our face into. on the b side, the tornhawk squad mess-up of coma tunnel begins with toddler-techno thuggery. then guitar chews grape nuts cereal all loud in the ear of your high school principal. then some screechy, finally soothing greeting from the angels that escort you to afterlife s beanbag chair.

the frightnrs escort daptone into the world of long-playing reggae with both the sweetest and the roughest record of the decade. crafted under the meticulous eye of black-belt reggae mastermind/producer victor axelrod (aka ticklah), nothing more to say is a rocksteady masterpiece the likes of which has not reared it s head since the golden era of studio one. however, you ll find no imitation here - none of the faux-jamaican cliches of lesser reggae bands. like all things daptone, this record is above all soulful and honest.

new yorks jkriv returns with his outfit the disco machine to release another big-hitting track on 100% original disco label file under disco. make it hot, which he released on the imprint a couple of years back and then found its way into the sets of top disco jockeys all around the globe including rahaan, horse meat disco, idjut boys and greg wilson - has been called a future disco classic in the making. the new single, cant give it up, again features the amazing vocal talents of adeline michele from escort and picks up the beat right where make it hot left off. and with an infectious blend of top class live instrumentation, real quality vocals and high-end contemporary studio techniques, the result is yet another dance floor weapon

this time mr raoul k not only wants you to dance - he wants you to go crazy on the dancefloor. in his well known way he crafts a relentless groover that sends everyone on the floor into the higher state of concsciousness called trance. he layers track upon track and builds a solid grooving base…. for the balafon. a handmade percussion instrument not unlike a marimba that gives guinean music its characteristic flavor. the vocal loop on top draws you deep into the vortex of nested percussion, african melodies und thick baselines. thistrack will never let you go - like moebius band. its main theme will stay in your head for a very long time. it will shake your hips after you left the dancefloor. and it will escort you on your way home after youve left the club. maybe it even serves as a lullaby after a long night out. already tested by Âme with stunning results.
