es ist kein geheimnis, dass montreal eine übersprudelnde disco-szene hatte, aber es gibt immer noch einige perlen, die unter dem radar liegen. sophie stanké ist eine von ihnen. die charismatische québec-litauische schauspielerin, radiomoderatorin und sängerin verkehrte mit einigen der angesagtesten disco-leute der 80er jahre und arbeitete an dem sexy boogie-song -l amour d une diva- mit keiner geringeren als geraldine hunt. damals ein skandal, wurde er zu einem lokalen disco-hit. der berühmte französische sänger daniel guichard wurde auf sie aufmerksam und nahm den song - leicht umarrangiert - in frankreich auf seinem label kuklos unter vertrag. hier ist das seltene kanadische originalarrangement, das stima wiederveröffentlicht hat, in seiner ganzen pracht.

setting out to make some happy music, sophie lloyd produced calling out in a dreary january as an antidote to the pervading doom and gloom of the news, summoning the power of the most joy-filled sound of all, gospel. this no-holds-barred anthem radiates all the live atmosphere of gospel worship in mid flow, with full instrumentation, keyboard breaks and understated kick drum pulling it all together. bringing in the uplifting voices of soul trio dames brown to re-record some old gospel samples was the icing on the cake, adding the last element of authenticity. a new member of the classic family, sophie lloyds impeccable knowledge of disco, soul and house shines through in this sparkling record, available on 7inch for the very first time.

2022 repress - ltd 1 copy / customer - sophie lloyd produced calling out in a dreary january as an antidote to the pervading doom and gloom of the news, summoning the power of the most joy-filled sound of all, gospel. the track radiates all the live atmosphere of gospel worship in mid flow, with soul trio dames brown bringing the authenticity. following the 7” release, which sold out due to huge demand, comes the 12” complete with the original version plus two brand new mixes from floorplan. the duo of detroit techno pioneer robert hood and his daughter lyric hood are well known for their gospel-infused sound with hood’s hometown influences always apparent. their club mix opens with a heavily swinging groove which breaks down into pure 4/4 indulgence, while the revival mix singles out the looped piano and organ riffs. putting their assertive spin on this new classic anthem, floorplan turn up the levels on calling out, bathing it in further glory.

seamless twelves does it again! set to drop yet another irresistibly infectious summer epic, supaflava blends slinky keys with a bumpin bassline, while the sweeping strings add the sweetener to the mix. sophie cairo adds the vocal touch with a performance set to not only blow you away, but have you singing along with your arms in the air! andro adds his trademark electro sound to the track while still maintaining the organic feel of the original, combining the familiar strings and keys with a fresh bassline so funky that it becomes an extremely potent lead line for the dub. by the time vincent kwok has his wicked way with the track, he adds a further twist, creating a bass driven dub that bumps its way underneath the floating vocals with some serious groove.
