pleasant life is a record label run by ally tropical. huge tip!

the sweet and soulful harmonies of the whatnauts spanned a 15-year career in which they recorded three albums and numerous singles, ranging from timeless ballads to temptations-esque politically-charged funk to dancefloor boogie. the music of the baltimorebased group, which featured the angelic falsetto lead of billy herndon, gained relevance for a younger generation via samples taken by the likes of de la soul, a tribe called quest and kanye west. this 2-lp set is a career compendium of their best slow jams, funk grooves and 12-inch club tracks, including multiple unreleased and rare sides.

black ivory was the pride of harlem and new yorks answer to the philly-fine delfonics but with infinitely more teen sex appeal. this silky-smooth 70s harmony trio featured the fabulous falsetto lead of leroy burgess (nephew of philly soul legend, thom bell) and charted four top-40 r&b singles and two top-30 lps under the guiding hand of their manager and today records driving force, patrick adams. songs like, you and i, time is love and dont turn around (which they performed live on soul train) are acknowledged sweet soul classics. and as the decade progressed and tastes changed, they successfully conquered the disco dancefloors with fave-raves like, mainline and walking downtown (saturday night) for buddah records which were liberally sampled by the hip-hop generation a true testament to the staying power of their incessantly soulful sound.

“nassau funk” vereint die wichtigsten tracks der von den bahamas stammenden band the beginning of the end. die compilation enthält ihren klassiker “funky nassau” sowie “when she made me promise”, welches als intro zu pete rock & cl smooths “they reminisce over you” gesampelt wurde.

the late 1960s / early 70s brought about a change in sound for many gospel groups. producers and label heads at abc peacock recognized that the traditional sound of gospel needed to be updated to appeal to the younger market. the groups started to incorporate elements of soul and funk with arrangements influenced by the r&b records of the time. this compilation presents 13 striking examples of this seismic shift in black music by some of the greatest groups in gospel music’s rich heritage.

sweet soul und funky grooves von baltimores frankie & the spindles aus den jahren 1968-1977 mit produktionen von george kerr und bunny sigler, die ursprünglich nur als heutzutage schwer zu findende 7” singles veröffentlicht wurden, erscheinen nun erstmalig auf lp.

die amerikanische gospel/soul-formation the pilgrim jubilee singers aka the pilgrim jubilees unterzeichneten 1962 bei abc / peacock records einen vertrag und veröffentlichten in der folge viele singles und mehrere alben. nun erscheint crying wont help von 1975 erstmalig auf cd. die ist kein gospel-album für deine großmutter, sondern ein muss für alle funk- und soul-fans da draußen!

lp reissues cut from the long-awaited 2010 digital remasters for the first time on vinyl and cd, original release from 1980. reissues of a legendary artist, pioneer of the french electronic music. the french proto-electro is making a come-back as we’ve seen it with the success of both cosmic machine compilations. their 7” “onyx” sold over 3 million copies worldwide. space art is behind the massive hits: “onyx”, “give me love”, “love in c minor” and more. one of half of the band, dominique perrier, is one of legend jean-michel jarre’s closest collaborators. recognized as a keyboard virtuoso, he worked on all jarre’s albums from “rendez-vous” (1986)to “oxygène 7-1” (1997) and still tours with him around the world. space art also toured with him in china in the early ’80s. alongside jean-michel jarre and cerrone they are one of the most influential bands that pioneered electro music.

nachdem er auf der letztjährigen kx labelcompilation (kx 10) mit dem exzellenten subwolfer seinen einstand gegeben hat, feilt der aufstrebende produzent krisztian dobrocsi für sein debütalbum playback philosophy weiter an seiner autarken musik. der zweite langspieler im kx-katalog präsentiert neun mitreissende tracks, bis an den rand mit aussergewöhnlichen melodiephrasen und erdigen, treibenden beats bepackt. von den emotionsgeladenen loops des openers amnetic cinema zum verträumten epos planet nine, dem schwungvollen kaleidoscope oder den eindringlichen klanglandschaften von light of zartha gibt sich dieses debüt überraschend reif, selbstbewusst zwischen tiefentextur und prägnantem wiedererkennungswert balancierend – ein unvergessliches und ansteckendes hörerlebnis für alle freunde elektronischer musik mit herz.

o.v. wright war ein legendärer soulsänger, der leider 1980 viel zu früh an einem herzinfarkt gestorben ist. obwohl der 41-jährige sänger insgesamt 13 top 50 r&b-hits zu verzeichnen hatte, kann man ihn nicht nur an seinem kommerziellen erfolg messen. er wurde als einer der größten und ausdrucksstärksten sänger des genres verehrt und mit größen wie otis redding oder solomon burke verglichen. “treasured moments” enthält eine essentielle auswahl an singles, die er zwischen 1965 und 1976 auf don robeys back beat label und abc records veröffentlicht hat.

richard sen (padded cell / bronx dogs) & cazbee (legendary graffiti artist) present a trio of new leftfield edits, suitable for the more open minded disco dancefloors. on the a side playback, is a fashionable midtempo euro funk groover. on the flip mad high is an uptempo string stabbed dancefloor destroyer. finally b2 schizo is our favourite out of the 3 is reminiscent of nu groove and early house. the original newave track is a chicago underground classic. the two recent mbc releases have seen support from dj harvey, andrew weatherall, prins thomas, idjut boys, cosmo vitelli, optimo, cherrystones, tim paris, moxie edits crew & dc recordings soundsystem
