House Novedades

Back in 2012, a 12" slipped out with little fanfare that introduced a new transatlantic trio: Paqua. That record, the hazy, low-slung psychedelic rock masterpiece 'Dinosaur Zappa' was merely a taster; a year later, the trio followed it up with 'Late Train', a dub-soaked Balearic rock chugger that went on to become an anthem at open-air parties around the globe. Three years on from announcing their attentions, Paqua are ready to unveil their debut album, Akaliko, a Buddhist word meaning "timeless". It's an apt description for an album that bristles with sun-kissed beauty, fuzzy guitars, impeccable instrumentation and far-sighted late night charm. It is, in essence, a perfect fusion of the renowned styles of its creators, British DJ/producer Paul Murphy (AKA Mudd, famed for his deliciously Balearic compositions for Rong Music and his own Claremont 56 label), longtime collaborator Alex Searle, and Quinn Luke from New York's Phenomenal Handclap Band, an act renowned for their funk-fuelled, flash-fried take on disco-inspired rock. With these three at the helm, you're in safe hands. The supporting musical cast includes Phenomenal Handclap Band drummer Patrick Wood, percussionist Patrick Dawes (famed for his work with Groove Armada), and Faze Action's Robin Lee, who provides cello on a number of tracks. It's a thoroughbred consortium that helps provide Akaliko with a textured musical richness that's never less than intoxicating. Across the album's eight tracks, Paqua run through a range of styles, from the Latin-influenced shuffle of 'These Things Will Come' and disco-flecked dancefloor stormer 'Ruby Running Faker', to the blissful Balearic rock shuffle of 'We Are What We Are' and stoned dub-rock-disco shuffle of the title track, which builds in layers towards a breathless climax. The band's two acclaimed singles, 'Dinosaur Zappa' and 'Late Train', sound as resplendent as ever amidst such heady sounds. Those who've been waiting for Akaliko won't be disappointed. If you've yet to succumb to Paqua's charms, dive straight in - it is timeless, after all.

Minneapolis collective Food Pyramid delivers a kosmische oddisey,a ten minute meltdown that feels both lysergic and transcendental. Gavin Russom of the Crystal Ark/ LCD fame shines with his visionary a daring remix of the title track. Limited edition of 200 hand silkscreened and numbered copies.

The Danish DJ and MUSIC FOR DREAMS' boss picks 3 of his fave cuts from last year deejaying in Ibiza at Café Mambo and the Bastardo parties: HESS IS MORE "CREATION" , a catchy and laidback dance tune that was massive in Ibiza, remixed by KENNETH BAGER himself, the funky instrumental groover "TEMPO LIBRE" by TUCCINELLI (AKA Italian producer TUCCILLO) and "WHAT'S MY NAME" by KENNETH BAGER EXPERIENCE and actress SOFIE GRABOL ("THE KILLING"). The record has been building steadily over the last couple of months played by PHIL MISON, featured on Testpressing radio show, and by JON SA TRINXA and DJ PIPPI.
DISCO HEADZ

After a brief hiatus we are pleased to announce Mangled returns in 2014 with a new distribution deal through Juno. First up is some Ray Mang versions of a song from Italian singer Mari (Marina Conti). Maris album Gentle Beauty produced together with singer songwriter Mozez (of Zero 7 fame) was released back in 2012 on Numen Records. Ray Mang took a shine to the second single Free taking the Vocals and piano from the original and re-crafting it into a stellar piece of modern euphoric disco. Presented here on heavyweight 180g 12" vinyl in three versions for your listening pleasure with digital to follow. From its first play during Rays debut appearance at London party institution Low Life back in 2012 this track has been causing goose bumps. Support comes from Bill Brewster, Daniel Wang, Horse Meat Disco, The Idjut Boys, Phil Mison, Una Bombers, Paul Murphy, Luke Solomon, Pete Herbert, Test Pressing and many more.

From the tropics comes Whiskey Disco, a sneaky re-edit label bent on dredging the decanter for diffident dancefloor genius from

latent disco perpetrators. It's loosely connected to Sleazy McQueen and his assorted cohorts.
Whiskey Disco #28 Lost In The Crowd by Olivier Boogie showcases the Dutch Master's skills with the knife. He's created a 4 color palette that will leave crowds besot with boogie fever.

Incorporating the squiggles and squelches of vintage analogue synthesizers and the breaks and beats of old library and soundtrack albums, Manchester's J-Walk is back.
J-Walk's anthemic 'Soul Vibration' was the choice cut of DJs worldwide and the album a classic on the underground.
'Off Beat', released on WonderfulSound is an album of lo-fi vibes reminiscent of recent Francis Bebey or William Onyeabor reissues but brought
into the 21st century with the classic J-Walk sound.
An album of sample based grooves including a cover version of Paddy Kingland's BBC Radiophonic classic 'Vespucci'.

Swedish producer HNNY launches the debut release on new label Omena.
Following the ludicrously limited RSD edition, we're more than happy to report the label agreed to follow up with a proper full vinyl release (Including new label art and a shorter edit of the magnificent original on the flipside !)

A totally addictive soul loop riding over a classic Disco beat - simple - devastatingly effective, and positively drenched in some much needed sunshine.
As HNNY says "You can't listen to this while it's raining, it doesn't work like that"
Final release - inc. new shorter edit & alternative artwork

Following on from the massive Finger Edits release in October last year we're thrilled to welcome back Reverend P for another home run on Basic Fingers.

The A-side 'Angels In Africa' is a deep and soulful uptempo number. The smooth percussion infuses softly with its modern synth textures and provides the perfect backing to bumping in your '85 Pontiac parisienne.

On the flipside the good Reverend is offering another rework so tasty your dancefloor will be munching out of the palm of your hand , 'Just In Strawberry'

This time the bill reaches from Hot Shot Producer Mano Le Tough (who celebrated his Permanent Vacation debut on Vol. 2 of this series), Maeve label buddy The Drifter, the Swedish House Mafia in form of House dandy Axel Boman and edit ramajam HNNY, rising star Lake People, long time vacationer Bostro Pesopeo (together with local Munich DJ San Quentin) and sizzling newcomer Boska to the Jack of all trades Willie Burns, fellow NYC resident Octo Octa, Berlin-based melody masters Kim Brown, the Neukölln Acid kingpins Achterbahn d' Amour (aka Iron Curtis & Edit Piafra) as well as Hotflush and We Play House regular Locked Groove. Each and everyone of the participants are more than convincing in what they are doing and although they have different perspectives on the long runner House Music, the tracks come together in sweet harmony on this compilation.

Another great House selection for this serie. 12 unmixed, extended & original versions. Including Da French Connextion, Chasing Kurt, Clean Bandit, Wankelmut,... and many more !!!!

Taste Of Honey is proud to present the true sound of the early 80': Change was an Italian-American post-disco group formed in Bologna, Italy in 1979 by businessman and executive producer Jacques Fred Petrus (1949-1986), Mauro Malavasi and Davide Romani. They were heavily influenced by legendary disco band Chic. In this release we can listen the original "Got To Get Up" (1983) plus a very clubby remix by Re-Tide (Taste Of Honey's Crew). The old sound and the new sound in one vinyl: born in 1983, evolved in 2014!

SCENES FROM OUR CLASSIC FUTURE IS THE REALIZATION OF THREE SONGS AND TWO PROJECTS THAT CAME TOGETHER AS ONE. AS YOUNG ASPIRING MUSICIANS SINCE THE EARLY AGE OF 12, GREG PAULUS AND JOHN CAMP PRACTICED PLAYING JAZZ STANDARDS INTO THE WEE SMALL HOURS OF THE MORNING TOGETHER. EVENTUALLY THE TWO WOULD FIND THEMSELVES BOTH IN NEW YORK UNDER NEW AND MORE ELECTRONIC CIRCUMSTANCES. DEEPLY INDEBTED TO THE MASTERY OF HERBIE HANCOCK, PAULUS AND CAMP WOULD RECONNECT, THIS TIME WITH SYNTHESIZERS, AND CONTINUE ON THEIR MUSICAL JOURNEY TOGETHER.

ON ONE PARTICULAR DAY, CAMP PLAYED PAULUS A TRACK TITLED "REMO". PAULUS INSTANTLY FELL IN LOVE WITH THE TRACK BUT BOTH FELT IT NEEDED SOMETHING MORE... PAULUS INSISTED ON LAYING DOWN VOCALS AND WITHIN 15 MINUTES HAD THE LYRICS WRITTEN OUT AND SOON AFTER ADDED TRUMPET .

AROUND THE SAME TIME PAULUS WAS REVISITING "SURF SONG", A TRACK HE AND BRIAN DERDIARIAN HAD BEEN WORKING ON SPORADICALLY FOR SOME TIME. THE TWO WOULD RECORD LONG ONE-TAKE JAMS ON TRUMPET, JUNO 106, AND GUITAR, FEEDING THEM ALL THRU LOOPING AND DELAY PEDALS. FROM THESE SESSIONS THEY WOULD FIND A STRIDE AND IN ADDITION TO "SURF SONG", RECORD "FIRE IN THE SKY". SIMILAR TO "REMO", "FIRE IN THE SKY" WOULD COME TOGETHER IN A LIGHTNING BOLT SORT OF WAY. WHEN ADDING THE FINAL TOUCHES, CAMP WAS AROUND AND WAS ENLISTED TO ADD PIANO WHICH WOULD BRING THE WHOLE EP TOGETHER.

AROUND THIS TIME, PAULUS BEGAN TO SEE THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THESE THREE TRACKS. EACH, IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER EMBODIED THE FEELING OF WHEN THE BEACH MEETS THE OCEAN. REMO" WAS DISTINCTLY REMINISCENT OF THEIR TIMES SPENT ON ROCKAWAY BEACH: THE TRIPS OUT IN THE CAR OR BUS, DRINKING AND SMOKING ON THE SHORE AND SLOWLY MAKING THEIR WAY BACK INTO THE BROOKLYN NIGHT TO GET CRAZY. "FIRE IN THE SKY" AND "SURF SONG" HAD A DISTINCT WEST COAST VIBE, MOST LIKELY DUE TO THE FACT THAT DERDIARIAN, BEING FROM CALIFORNIA, COULD NOT HELP BUT BRING THAT WEST COAST SWAGGER TO THE MUSIC. AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE IDEA OF HAVING THEIR GOOD FRIEND TANNER ROSS ADD HIS SIGNATURE TOUCH TO THE PROJECT WAS A NE- CESSITY. ROSS WOULD TAKE "REMO" AND MAKE IT HIS OWN HAZY GEM. WITH THAT, PAULUS WOULD END UP WITH FOUR SONGS THAT REMINDED HIM OF THAT SPECIAL PLACE WHERE THE SAND HITS THE OCEAN.

AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT PAULUS WOULD MANAGE TO TAKE TWO PICTURES THAT PERFECTLY ENCAPSU- LATED HIS FEELINGS FOR THESE SONGS. ONE, A BEAUTIFUL DAY ON THE ROCKAWAYS AND THE OTHER, A LUCKY RIDE IN HIS BUDDY'S CORVETTE STINGRAY UP THE PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY TO MALIBU.

SCENES FROM 0 UR CLASSIC FUTURE IS A COLLECTION OF SONGS THAT PAULUS, CAMP, AND DERDIAR- IAN LOVE AND HAVE LABORED OVER FOR A LONG TIME. THEY HOPE YOU ENJOY THEM AS MUCH AS THEY DO.

Latest IIB release features the North Easts version of CSN Last Waltz. A double header, The first track Just Hold On is a collaboration between Last Waltz & Smoove. Heartfelt vocals over a pastoral rolling chugger, deep bassline folky guitar strumming making this a favourite at IIB HQ. On the remix Ess O Ess raise the tempo a little bring out the electric guitars and increasing the chug to almost Krautrock levels. On the Flip side Last waltz give us Tribute. A deep atmospheric acid affair. Mellow electric keys and percussion lull you into a false sense of security before the heavy kick and acid bassline drop with dark cello notes. Machete Savane take on the remix. Replacing acid for guitar and adding some machine groove this slowly builds and builds into a top bubbler.

For their first outing in 2014, cult vinyl-only imprint A&R Edits return with another double header of tried-and-tested reworks that have set the floor alight for edits maestro Greg Wilson in recent months.

For instalment number five, Lee 'Peza' Perry comes to the fore, opening with a track that picks up the momentum of the current return to popular consciousness of the Northern Soul scene. A lesser known, pre-Rodgers & Edwards Sister Sledge is the subject of his affections, with 'Love Don't Go Through No Changes On Me', a track that didn't chart in the UK but was championed by the legendary UK selector Colin Curtis at the Blackpool Mecca.

Unearthed once more, Peza's upfront dance floor treatment will no doubt bring this heartfelt gem to a new generation of dancers.

On the flip is a skilful extension of a 1979 classic by Gina X Performance, the electro pioneers who fused Euro-disco synth pop with an arthouse performance sensibility and sexually provocative imagery.

'C'est La Vie Ma Cherie' showcases Gina Kikoine's much-imitated detached, narrative vocal style, set above an irresistible groove, lovingly given the contemporary dance floor touch by Peza.

Am 23.

It's been a long time coming but Norm De Plume (Delusions Of Grandeur) finally follows up his initial 2011 Plumage release with two more contrasting deep disco re-works.
'Ohio Replayed" a deep, sparse groover with a chugging, swinging drum pattern.

The signature NDP slow-building intro in full effect; the filters slowly opening to reveal more choice sampledelica and building to a cresendo. Then we switch into super deep mode with some heavily effected organ chords buzzing and pulsating before the track builds again but only to die, slowly back to the swinging drum groove that started everything off in the 1st place.


Flip over for "Stretchin' Gretchen" a repetitive, looped up Brazilian Disco work-out! An ultra-repetitive groove with vocal chanting throughout - cut and looped a'la Ron Hardy (Norm's hero and inspiration) and switched up with some funky breaks and fills, the clever working of filters and a nice little bridge section. Add some heavy-duty shuffling samba-house drum programming and you've got yourself the samba-house equivalent of Frankenstein's monster!

Wonderful remastered reissue of the hugely indemand Biljuma Records 12' release of Billy Frazier & Friends' disco funk masterpiece 'Billy Who~' Originally released in back in 1980, this killer track with its awesome phat disco b-line, sexy vocals and gorgeous strings sounds amazing on a big system which made it a huge hit on the underground scene and a staple at legendary clubs like The Paradise Garage, The Loft and Chicago's Warehouse. An absolute classic and a must have for any collection.

Not brand new, but new to us. Seriously awesome disco edits from CITIZEN DRUNK (CITIZEN KANE and JEFF "THE DRUNK" OVERTON) on the A-side and Torino native JOSE MANUEL on the flip. Both tracks from an era of major NYC disco arrangements and feature orchestral lushness. Badass disco edits.

Der Norweger, der uns regelmäßig Dance-Hits wie "Inspector Norse", "Ragysh" oder "Eurodans" beschert, gehört zusammen mit seinen Landsmännern Lindstrøm und Prins Thomas schon seit vielen Jahren zu den wegweisenden Produzenten in Sachen House, NuDisco und Leftfield.
Vor allem seine discoiden Edits und Remixe brachten ihm hohe Anerkennung ein. Doch Terje ist auch verantwortlich für eine Menge Hits anderer Künstler. Er remixte für Hot Chip und Brian Ferry, produzierte zwei Tracks von Franz Ferdinand's neuer Platte "Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action" und verhalf Robbie Williams mit "Candy" zu einer Chartplatzierung.

Auf seinem Debütalbum zeigt er eindrucksvoll, dass clevere Tanzmusik launig, witzig und humorvoll sein kann und vor allem Spaß macht. "It's Album Time" verspricht eine bunte und abwechslungsreiche Reise durch seinen kompletten Musikkosmos.
Wieder einmal beweist Todd Terje sein todsicheres Gespür für großartige Melodien und sein unheimliches Gefühl dafür, wie die Tracks auf der Tanzfläche perfekt funktionieren.

Von poppigen, cinematisch und rätselhaften tracks wie `Leisure Suit Preben' und 'Preben Goes To Acapulco', zu basslastigen jump up tracks wie 'Svensk Sås', dem fröhlichen 'Strandbar' oder dem stampfenden, intergalaktischen Boogie der ersten Single - Dolorean Dynamite'.
Todd Terje lässt das pure Glück aus den Boxen sprudeln. Wie man Klassikern neues Leben einhaucht zeigt Terje zusammen mit Gastsänger Bryan Ferry auf der gechillten Coverversion von Robert Palmers "Johnny And Mary". 'Alfonso Muskedunder' mit seinem ungewöhnlichem 7/8 Takt und dem euphorischen Refrain markiert den wohl überschwänglichsten Moment auf dem Album. 'Swing Star' war bereits auf der "Inspector Norse" 12' und hat nichts von seinem Reiz verloren. Das Grande Finale des Albums beginnt mit dem außerirdischen Discoknaller "Oh Joy" bevor "Inspector Norse" das Haus endgültig niederbrennt.

MadDisco is back with a cracking 7 inch release, first up we have a sweet little jazz funk tune, dreamy vocals, gorgeous chords and a solid bass line make for one hell of a heavenly tune, 7 inches of pure delight.
On the B-side we have an edit of Julius Brockington & The Magic Force's rare b-side track "Cosmic Force', it's a slow slamming jazz funk instrumental, with dope beats, heavy heavy bass line, trumpet stabs and solos to die for, a truly sultry music affair of the highest order....

Classic disco and Balearica given a push to a sharper modern sound." ANDI HANLEY does 2 African themed edits ("RIVERRUN" and "ZULU"), both lush soundscapes perfect to get the dancefloor moving bw/ "ALL THE WAY" a pure, nasty disco sleaze cut by label boss CITIZEN KANE. A grinding disco romp with synths and heavy electric guitar riffs, this is some - peak time get your freak on -
business. Already a hit with DJ HARVEY! DISCO HOUSE EDIT
