300 released for distribution and copies given away at the release party in Edmonton, Canada at "The Common"

A future nu disco classic from Italy's THE ZARS on Chicago's own SMOOTH AGENT RECORDS. THE ZARS are producers ALEXANDER GIAMPAOLO TESSAROLO & ALESSANDRO LA PADULA. Their sound is somewhere between classic deep house and Nu Disco. We just call this good music. The UK's OOFT! kicks things off with a deep and atmospheric mix with a touch of acid followed by the original mix. B/w a LUMINODISCO remix with a soulful and more organic mix plus the bonus cut "SAXA RUBINA".

Paris based DJ and producer Reverend P have been on the GAMM radar for quite some time.
But its not until now that we managed to get his wonderful edits released through GAMM. Spread out over two EPs Reverend P delivers soul, funk and boogie reworks that sets himself up there with all the big players on the edit scene.

"Won Ton Sunset" heißt das neue Album des in Tokyo beheimateten DJs & Produzenten Max Essa. Das Album besticht durch seine subtile kreative Raffinesse und beinhaltet eine Reihe von handverlesenen Remixen und überarbeiteten Tracks.

Deep&Disco Recordings presents Chicago-based band The Right Now with 'Call Girl,' a gritty piece of live retro-soul with a package of varied and unique mixes.

The A-side kicks off with Hot Toddy turning the funk up a notch in his characteristically musical way, in a mix that layers new live elements over the original and builds to a dazzling peak. Following that is the original version: a straight-to-tape recording of the band with lush keys, tight rhythm section grooves, horn stabs, and vocals that drip with soul.

Then on the B-side, Dicky Trisco turns in a deep and dubby late-nite disco burner, and label head JKriv takes the tune into old-school house territory with thumping 909 drums and bouncing piano stabs.
Early DJ support from Kon, 6th Borough Project, Lovebirds, OOFT!, Jacques Renault and more...

Limited to 500 Only Worldwide.....

No stranger to the Basic Fingers camp Koko have already graced us before and that's why we're also bringing him back a third time for another release with rnb & soul drenched disco gems.
Light Of The World's 'Time' has got everything you need to encourage feet movement. An infectious bassline, horns, strings, percussions, sing-a-long-chorus and is presented in beautiful way, giving the original enough room to breathe. Flip over for a great re-edit of Meli'sa Morgan's "Fool's Paradise' - funkier than a mosquito's tweeter!

The allstar collaboration continues, following the previous bestselling Golf Channel releases from these two heavyweights
Rhythm Odyssey is a production alias of the one and only Dean Meredith (Chicken Lips, Goat Dance etc) here he's teamed up with Dr Dunks (Eric Duncan, Rub-n-Tug)
with a view to concocting the very finest analogue assembled proto House and modern Disco.
'Fox' is as cunning as its name would suggest
The B Side original mix is a a beguiling, tripped out and 100% effective slice of Disco devastation, which manages to combine the rawness of early Chicago, archetypal Detroit flavours and downtown
Disco sleaze into 8 minutes of dancefloor perfection.
The A Side 'Version' mix takes things into more stripped down and dubbed out territory, allowing the atmospheric, key elements to work their magic before unleashing a heady synth-out for the floor wrecking finalé

What can we say, an absolutely solid gold series of releases and they just keep on coming through with the good stuff !
The Sunshine Reworks Series 4 is another seriously addictive duo of masterfully reinterpreted underground classics
Founded by one of the UK's most respected DJ's and Producers - Dean 'Sunshine' Smith & curated from a 30 year plus collection of mind-blowing music and frontline DJing

Smokecloud Records - Whiskey Disco head honcho delivers 2 knockout re-edits of Jimmy "Bo" Horne classics from the TK Disco catalog with J. Collazo on the keys. B f/Osmose brings a Yarbrough and Peoples edit, paired w/an homage to Super Value edits

Two original Classic members return too Classic with an adventure into the world of disco deviance. Tim Kavnosky (co-writer with Tim Shumaker from Home and Garden fame) and JT Donaldson (Undercover Agency) joining forces here, utilising their wealth of musical knowledge and inspiration to make something that melds the likes of Wally Badarou, the System and Maurice Fulton.
A little more left field for Classic after recent releases, but Classic nonetheless. Various interpretations of a mini LP to be released in the next few months...on this particular vinyl only version. Classic adds both Eddie C's disco adventure and the illusive Argentinean Leonel Castillo to the fold. Both of whom turn in stellar performances.

All the beloved Bordello A Parigi ingredients: sexy female vocals, Italian lyrics and tight ass italo synths: a sultry aphrodisiac! Perfect while stretching your legs intoxicated by the smell of sun cream at the Adriatic Sea, driving through the Abruzzo mountains on a hot summer evening or flirting in the burning sun with tanned beauties at your backyard private swimming pool south of Tuscany. This summer hit comes with a beautiful picture cover by LA photographer Eric I. Gonzalez: limited supplies!

Part 3 of the Emotional Relish series sees Robi Insinna's work remixed by a quartet of British producers. Death In Vegas overseer Richard Fearless tackles "Be Loved" starting with an ethereal loop that builds on top of itself before the beat kicks in and the remix heads for the dark (leather) dancefloor. Mr Andy Blake channels the collective spirits of The Slits, The Pop Group and Killing Joke on his space echo laden remix of "Adolescent Sex" whilst Weatherall acolyte Scott Fraser returns to the Relish cause with a typically chugging rendition of "Turning" that has found favour from Croatia boat parties to the catwalks of Paris S/S 2013 no less (check YouTube for evidence). Cosey club founder Richard D Clouston slows down the tempo for a brooding, mind bending take on "Blue Girls".

The Fearless Leader Steve Washington (George Clinton, Slave, Civil Attack, Aurra, Salsoul) produced 4 Aurra albums in the 1980s, but there was an unreleased 5th album. 2 exclusive instrumentals on B, Silk screen sleeve. Tip!!
Satisfaction was recorded in 1984 and set for release on Quincy Jones' Qwest label. The album was cancelled due to legal matters. Family Groove Records is making this music available for the first time. The full-length Satisfaction album is due out this summer.

200 copies limited edition 12" on yellow vinyl !
Discotexas return with Mirror People's sterling 'Kaleidoscope' featuring a limited coloured vinyl release and a brand new remix from the excellent Psychemagik...
Rui Maia AKA Mirror People has been one of the hottest producers to come out of Portugal in recent years with a string of stunning releases on highly respected labels such as Permanent Vacation, Bear Funk, Hands of Time and of course eclectic disco merchants Discotexas. Now he is back on the imprint owned Moullinex and Xinobi with the superb 'Kaleidoscope' that will be receiving a vinyl release for the first time and features a brand new mix from Psychemagik.The release kicks off with the original version of 'Kaleidoscope' a bubbling and funk fuelled disco outing that pulls together dramatic keys, a classic disco B-line and a myriad of heart warming melodic elements to create a sumptuous production that is genuinely timeless, quality stuff. The original version is followed by a remix from label boss Xinobi who turns in a superb reworking flush with bright piano stabs and stirring brass parts for an alternative that retains the original character whilst stamping it's own mark on things. Next up we have a brand new version of 'Kaleidoscope' from highly respected UK production duo Psychemagik. Tom & Danny, the faces behind the name, have been burning bright for some time with a string of outstanding single, remixes and exclusive edits helping them ascend to exhalted heights in recent months. Here they take the original track deliver a delightfully uplifting yet understated melodic mix that plays on arpeggiated synth lines, rich warm bass and shuffling percussion, simply sublime. The EP is closed with Mirror People's 'Machines', a techy and taut production that reflects its title.
Another gem from Discotexas, enjoy!

By now you've probably seen or heard about the Oscar winning documentary "Searching for Sugar Man", if not, we strongly suggest you to... it really moved us. Ditongo did a tribute edit of Rodriguez song "Climb Upon My Music". Be careful, this is quite special!

Brooklyn-based synthpop duo Holy Ghost! are excited to unveil their new music video for their new song 'Dumb Disco Ideas.' The video, directed by Ben Fries, features a plethora of colorful, synchronized lights and a backdrop of the New York City skyline from dusk until dawn. Watch the video here.

'Dumb Disco Ideas' is a new song from the band's upcoming sophomore album, Dynamics, which will be released this fall. Dynamics will be the follow-up to the group's critically acclaimed self-titled debut album which was released in 2011 and was hailed as a 'classic pop album' by The Los Angeles Times.

The 31th release from Japanese label Wonderful Noise is LTD 8TRK EP from New Zealand's producer/Beat Maker Julien Dyne's forthcoming 3rd album DECEMBER.



Julien Dyne is the New Zealand's producer .

His 1st album Pins & digits(2009) from Wonderful Noise got big reaction from headsand the album releasing from famous label B.B.E for worldwide later. His 2nd Album Glimpse delivers originally great sound & groove with smokey and atmospheric mood....From inspiration from Jazz,Soul,Hip Hop,Electro,Detroit -Beatdown,Post -RockJulien delivers futuristic beat science with fat beatsheavy bass lineand fantastic melody and chords.

And now here we can listen 8tracks from long awaited his 3rd album DECEMBER

RIVA STARR's second album comes 3 years after the critical acclaim of 'If life gives you lemons, make lemonade' (2010)- which spawned the seminal Balkan beat single 'I Was Drunk feat. Noze' now with over 10 million combined youtube views...
Riva has equally graced many different venue lately: from co-headlining the infamous Sensation 2012 events in Amsterdam (with Dennis Ferrer, Mark Knight and Hardwell) and opening for the likes of Swedish House Mafia, Kelis and Jamiroquai in Ibiza, and for Tiesto and Benny Benassi in the States, to regular underground gigs for the likes of Warehouse Project (Manchester), El Row (Barcellona and Ibiza), Cocoon (Frankfurt), Picnik Electronik (Canada), Watergate (Berlin)and Avalon, Betaand Set (USA)
Throw in the mix his very own Snatch! Silent Disco at Creamfields, the Snatch! Arena at Tomorrowlands and the Bateria Fantastica set at We Love... (Ibiza) and what you have is ever more perplexing... A Bricklane based Neapolitan cultural exile with a degree in Chinese literature; a passionate family guy who still manages to juggle a DJ schedule of over 200 gigs a year, a label, remix and production duties
Intriguing... They say you cannot keep a good man down, and as he swings from genre to genre and from fan to fan (over the years he has been praised by the likes of A-Trak to Tiesto, Giles Peterson to Pete Tong, Annie Mac to David Rodigan and almost every one in between) Riva's sound remains truly hard to pin down!
All this, intermingled by remixes for Gossip, Usher, Estelle, Plan B, Lauren Pritchard, Wiley, Fatboy Slim, Marina and the Diamonds, Parov Stellar, Manu Chao, Noze, Dennis Ferrer, Lionrock, Cajmere, Major Lazer, Steve Angelo, Reboot, Azari & III, Malente and many, many more...

Black Rox is back with 2 more sneaky Soft Rocks specials that have somehow been liberated from locked CD wallets and released into the wild for general consumption. Lead track "Music sounds better with 'fro" is a Stardust aping afro groove exploding into ecstatic, almost house, pianos. This one has been thoroughly road tested by dem Idjut Boys and Soft Rocks themselves... dancefloor detonation guaranteed. On the flip we get more righteous with "Brothers (& Sisters) On The Slide". Funky rollin' drums and a spoken word intro leading into a glorious anthemic song about struggling against the man.

Last seen brandishing a pair of Stillove4music releases circa 2009, Bruce Ivery resurfaces in style with the debut release on the newly established Street Edits label. "Clap Your Hands" kicks things off, hogging the A Side with a loopy retro disco style and a bassline that flows like Chic's "Everybody Dance". Face down, Ivery lays out two cuts, opening with an Impact mix of "Mr Paganini" (a possible reference to Ella Fitzgerald) fuelled by synthesisers and pumping drum machines, while the four-four kicks and thumping bassline of "Harlem" - sampling Bill Withers - parades around the track like ballroom dancers stomping and twisting to grungy strings and vamped melodies. If you liked those Stillove plates you'l dig this!

Heinrich Dressel from Minimal Rome and Ali Renault in his Cestrian guise team up to bring us the latest release on Cyber Dance Records, a split EP featuring 2 tracks from each of them. Side A is Heinrich Dressel's half of the record and kicks off with 'Out Of The Blue', a deep throbbing monster of a jam full of psychedelic synths rumbling and pulsating beneath mesmerising electronic tones. His other track. 'Thru The Fog' ups the tempo and pushes the rock-solid analogue weightiness into a Chicago-esque jack classic that DJs won't be able to resist. The Cestrian half of the record counter-balances Dressel's moody analogue jams with 2 LSD-driven electro-monsters that evoke bleak but somehow lush visions of life in the modern world of concrete and machines. 'Strong Face' with its distinctive audio sampling and dystopian future vibes would surely be just the kind of electro JG Ballard would approve of, while 'Methane Filter' is a tweaked-out electro rocker that sounds like robotic paranoia distilled into soundwaves. If you like your synths cooked to perfection you won't want to miss this!

EMOTIONAL RESPONSE RETURNS WITH THEIR FIRST ALBUM OF 2013, A COLLECTION OF EARLY, UNRELEASED RECORDINGS FROM RISING BROOKLYN VIDEO ARTIST/PRODUCER LUKE WYATT (AKA TORN HAWK).

As one of the rising stars of the East Coast US electronic scene, Luke's Torn Hawk releases on the cult L.I.E.S records introduced his cut up and glitchy take on R&B and House that have recently edged deeper and darker in to the Noise and Techno realms associated with the likes of Demdike Stare and Regis.

This has been complimented by two recent DVDs, self-released under his own name. Mixing his day as a professional multi-media artist with his night as an increasingly experimental musician, they have gained considerable acclaim that can't be pigeon holed as yet another Brooklyn House-head.

However, as his first White label debut EP testified, there is also an ethereal and at times (*cough*) Balearic feel buried deep within this music and it is here, on Teen Hawk, this is as evident as his Drone based pieces.

While the looping percussion and rhythms of Bertone Stratos and I Recommend Starman echo the ethereal beauty of Cluster and La Dusseldorf, they are also mixed with the darker ambient and loop based Wrong Crowd or Greystoke One.

Riding throughout much of this is his beloved looped guitar and eye for a breakbeat. Never more evident that on the album closer, Time For Thick. Here his influences mesh to create a swirling, blissed out, hip-hop meets Aphex MDMA anthem...minus the sexist gangster rap.

To ride the best the prolific period for Daughter's & Sons, we provide "The Whip" which also will turns your dance floors in something special.
This killer comes after the amazing succes of "Sweet Pussy Pauline" sold out in few hours, and volume 1 of (digital only) "Metro Series".

After the success of 'Volume 1', Downtownsounds continue their trawl through the big tunes from their long running nights in Dublin.

Dinosaur's 'Kiss Me Again' is a famed disco collaboration by Nicky Siano, Arthur Russell and Talking Heads' David Byrne, and here it's given a massive overhaul by Pablo and Shoey, with a brand new intro constructed from snatches of the tune's many percussion breaks. Using parts from 3 different mixes to emphasise the epic, Northern Soul tinged torchsong at the centre, and featuring additional edits by Siano himself, this one is a winner!

On the flip we have a much slept on slice of crazed 21st Century afro-psychedelia from Ashley Beedle's Black Science Orchestra project, a 6am groover that breaks all the way down to nothing halfway through, before letting loose with a wild drum solo and a ludicrous horn fanfare that has been known to deliver quasi religious experiences on the dancefloor.... We've seen it with our own eyes!

Riding high on the wings of their previous release 'Pulling Strings' on their Red Series, Eclectic Avenue Records bring us REAR002 'Deep In It' by Small Giants.

Small Giants is the wonderfully ingenious marriage between Leeds based label manager Jacob Kelly (J.Cub) and the Chicago house legend Joshua Iz. Combining their skills, they have taken a heady guitar lick, underpinned it with a smoothly infectious bassline and sewn it all together with a warm soothing vocal sample.
Call it house, call it disco. Either way, it's a surefire dancefloor killer and will take pride of place in any DJ or collector's record box.

Flip her over for a remix by Leeds darlings PBR Streetgang. Currently the hottest thing to come out of dance music's unofficial capital, the cheeky duo have put their own twist on the original by filling the track out with some chuggier deeper vibes whilst highlighting the instrumental solos.
A hugely successful foray into a funkier tone for what promises to be another trophy in the E.A.R cabinets

Red Laser Records returns.Back with more Manctalo !
EP2 is once again limited to 300 and comes on red vinyl with a printed wrap arround inner & pvc sleeve.
First in is a beat heavy analogue chug rework of the rare and weird Italo 7' 'I Am Your Master' by the mysterious Italo connoisseur Savino DJ and DJ Peet Need based in Holland.
The arpeggiating bass line digs a circular trench that gets deeper as the track marches on until you end up stuck on an island with a strange creepy midget man. Music that blurs the line between disco dreams and nightmares
Starion is back for more on EP2. How will he make a heavier track than EP1's 'Another Dimension' By making 'Darkstar'.
Analogue Manctalo Chug at its finest. Big bass line, big synth chords, big vocoder action. You couldn't get more 'dark disco electronic' if you went clubbing with Daleks and the Cybermen were DJing.
Just like Kid Machine, Starion has a great knack for making arrangement and production look easy (which It aint). Watch this space Manctalo heads. Starion is going to make some waves Laird Hamilton would be scared of in 2013.
On EP1 Ste Spandex dropped a great Boogie number with Sarah Bates. This time however is more 'mutating worm like acid wriggler'. 'Edit IV' is a relentless percussive onslaught that seems to scrape any MDMA residue trapped in your veins and gets it circulating again. This means you can get 'off your napper' without spending money on drugs. This is a bit of a taste of what's to come on Ste Spandex's own Red Laser 12' which drops a week or two after EP2 and is choc full of amazing productions.
Finally Kid Machine does it again! 'Pegasus' is so dark and heavy it's like holding a black hole in the palm of your hand and gives the feeling of a retro --future, sci-fi horror score. This really takes you to another place with its atmospheric soundscape. Stimulating the imagination to conjure a murky neon lit future. The future is dark, brilliantly dark !

With recent releases for Internasjonal and Tim Sweeney's Beats In Space Records, Los Angeles based producer Secret Circuit (otherwise known as Eddie Ruscha) has had a breakthrough year with his brittle synth jams, taking inspiration from Balearic disco and minimal wave alike. However, he's been a prolific producer since 1996, and this record on Emotional Response, entitled Tropical Psychedelics, collects productions from Rusha up until 2010 that have previously only seen the light of day on cassette releases. Described by the label as a "Balearic-Tropical-Afro-Psychedelic whirl", the album packs a rich palette of analogue textures into its ten tracks, from the Afro dub of "Afrobotics", through the hazy, beatless combination of piano and analogue synth on "Psouvenirs" to the psychedelic tropicalia of "Foggy Twilights".

The Soft Rocks collective feature twice on the upstart Black Rox label with two heavily tribal remixes for a so far unknown artist. The Soft Rocks take on "Filaw" is wrapped in horns and jungle sounds - not too far off a 1970s Brian Jackson and Gil Scott Heron collaboration. On the flip is a possible Talking Heads reference in "Once In A Life Time", which gathers mesmeric African drums and percussion, grooving in harmony to ritualistic chant. A Mohican David Byrne perhaps

Return to the mystical white isle with Hed Kandi Ibiza 2013 as the party season is upon us once more and the young, trendy and music obsessed prepare to pack their suitcases and head to the most enchanting party island in the world.
Last year's album went silver, selling over 50,000 copies in the UK alone. 2013 sees Hed Kandi Ibiza return to entice you once more into a realm where hedonistic partying holds sway.
With dance music's prominent takeover of the charts still ever expanding, Hed Kandi Ibiza 2013 includes all the hottest upfront Ibiza sounds, big room house anthems and afterparty deep house beats.
Taking the reins this year are our very own resident DJs, Sarah Louise, Dan Van and Andy Daniels who have masterfully curated this three disc collection of Ibiza anthems.

CD 1

















CD 2

Very little to go on here, but the music will surely do the talking !
The Volcano Brothers are a mysterious group who have put together these two African edits that have been featured on the Beats In Space radio show and in the record box of Tim Sweeney.

Another exclusive Cooperation of Internasjonal / Full Pupp and Friends. This time we took three tracks from the second album of italy´s fine cosmic/kraut duo CRIMEA X and Bjorn Torske wich was originally released on Hell Yeah and gave them an extra special Prins Thomas Diskomiks twist. The result is as for me, especially convincing in 'Dream Is Gone' which almost sounds like a warm late 80´s Club version of a NEW ORDER track. Which, again, hopefully says something about its future Fanboy/Fangirl Potential... So simple and so nice...! Kai Fraeger, Oslo-Hamburg, July13

Ka-boom!

The legendary digger re-ignites the Lagos Disco Inferno and kicks off his own mouth-watering imprint with these two sides of boogie-down bliss. Irresistible Afro-disco, layered with delirious syn-drums and sick keys, and featuring a horn-line bumptiously whipped from Louis 'Thunder Thumbs' Johnson's bass-playing on MJ's Workin' Day And Night.



Originally from Warri where he stayed throughout most of his career, Tony's first band was the Famous Latin And His Dominant Seven. He gigged for a while as a James Brown imitator with The Great Peters, before his breakthrough fronting the Magnificient Zeinians, with some amazing 45s on EMI's HMV imprint — best of all the psych-rock-funk monster Ije Udo. From the early to mid 1970s, his EMI sides range from Afrobeat to rock and pop. All Tony's records are great. He came up with various names for his backing bands — the Black 7, the Super 7, the Black Kings...

From the early-eighties, with the Ozimba Messengers, Grey's two recordings here were originally released on different LPs.
Limited, top-notch pressing from Pallas via Abbey Road; with a lovely 12-by-24-inch poster.
The first in a fusillade of five.
