The next package from the ever-busy MB Disco label is a whopping and wonderful collection of remixes of British/Polish duo The KDMSs hit single *Part Time Lovers*. Originally released on Gomma, it has been fully licensed to the label who serve it up here in original form as well as with remixes from Leaves & Iron Curtis, Acid Washed, label boss Martin Brodin, Copycat, Peter Visti and Nirosta Steel.


The KDMS have proven themselves fine purveyors of disco funk and deep down boogie, turning the heads of press and punters alike in the process. Their single, 'Part Time Lovers' is a breezy and dreamy bit of instrument rich disco with dazzling synths and uplifting vocals and is ripe for remixing, so it's no wonder MB Disco have decided to do just that.

First up is label head and revered producer Martin Brodin goes for an uplifting house cum disco vibe with his remix. Leaving in the drama of the original vocals, there are plenty of grinding analogue basslines buried deep within the shimmering, uplifting remix.

Next up is German producer and an associate of both Smallville and Tensnake's Mirau label. Iron Curtis. He turns in two remixes; the first strips the track back to drums and percussion and lays in a monstrous and wobbling bassline before laying the vocal back on the top. It's a direct deep house number with plenty of anthemic potential.

The flipside introduce French duo Acid Washed who release on the legendary Record Makers label. Fresh from the release of their album House of Melancholy the pair reimagines 'Part Time Lovers' as a louche bit of synthy disco pop. There is plenty of cosmic energy and celestial energy within the glistening synths and hip-swaying hand claps and it's such a fine rework it's hard to imagine it isn't an original track in itself.

Second out is a remix .from Nirosta Steel, who is actually Steven Hall. Hall also works as part of the much loved Arthur's Landing project - a group of musicians who formerly worked with cult music genius Arthur Russell. This moniker is something of a secret and underground project and the music matches that. The Eastwood remix is a totally deconstructed reworking that features heavily filtered vocals, some amazing twanging guitar strums which take you straight to a hazy summer beach and the whole thing in drowned in echo, much like the work of Arthur Russell.

This is a very healthy package that genuinely offers plenty of different, and equally essential, takes on the great original by The KDMS and confirms MB Disco to be one of the genre's finest assets when it comes to taking the genre forward.
