Azymuth drummer Ivan 'Mamao' Conti's forthcoming self-titled solo project, remixed by West London broken beat pioneer IG Culture for a scorching club monster, alongside three future-funk remixes from 22a records family Tenderlonious, Reginald Omas Mamode IV and Jeen Bassa.

Ivan 'Mamao' Conti is one of the greatest drummers on earth. A true rhythmic innovator, he is Brazil's answer to Tony Allen, Steve Gadd, and Bernard Purdie (no small claim considering the country's famed samba connection). Known by most as one third of Azymuth, his career spans far beyond with over half a century's worth for recordings with the likes of Milton Nascimento, Eumir Deodato, Marcos Valle, Hyldon, Gal Costa and Jorge Ben. More recently Mamao recorded an album with hip-hop royalty Madlib under the shared moniker 'Jackson Conti'.

Now aged seventy, Mamao's work ethic is as strong as ever. In anticipation of a new Ivan Conti solo album set for release in 2017, Far Out Recordings have commissioned a series of remixes to be spread across two separate 12's. The first is a strictly London affair, with a fiery broken-boogie club monster from West London pioneer IG Culture, joined by the signature future-funk of 22a Records family Tenderlonious, Reginald Omas Mamode IV and Jeen Bassa. The second 12' will host remixes from Max Graef, Glenn Astro and Contours.

Melbourne's M5K...where G-Funk, Modern Funk, Boogie, House,
and Hip Hop all intersect to give you the most bang imaginable (via real synthesizers and drum machines). West Coast Lead Lines meet Detroit Sub Bass Frequencies, Raw Drum Machine Stabs Snap and Crack while Lush Chords ow from Analog and Digital synths.
Ultimately, deep vibes are created, arranged, and mixed down into undisputed dance-oor bangers, making real thick and juicy jams for the ears and bodies of party-goers. The Absolutely Real' EP on Hobo Camp Records bangs out 5 tracks of Raw Street-Level business (featuring Midnight Runners on the track Let's Try It Out'), straight from M5K's Melbourne Studio right to your sound-sy

South-east London producer Nebraska returns with two more breakbeat-house nuggets for discerning dancefloors. The second release from the Friends & Relations label foregrounds a 70s Fender Rhodes sound in a contemporary setting. One for fans of classic MAW and Moodymann.

 2 BRILLIANT UNRELEASED HOT FUNKY TRACKS
BY THE LEGENDARY TOM HOOKER.
AN ICON OF THE ITALO DISCO DURING 80s AND 90s

The mystery band is back with a holiday heater. The follow up to their 2 side also on STAR CREATURE. Limited for the holidays includes instrumental to keep it funkin all year long plus holiday acapellas with enough festive DJ drops for all 12 days of Xmas. Pure Xmas Funk for the heads!

Diggin Deeper brings the funk with a Trans-Atlantic split EP from two edit masters.
Side A features Philadelphia disco don Michael The Lion, who has earned raves for his work on Soul Clap, Razor-N-Tape and Giant Cuts. His "Keep On Hangin' On" is a raw take on the classic "French touch" style - live vibraphone and bass elements to give a jolt of energy to a loft classic. With "Finally", Michael brings some nasty boogie funk with a groove that will give you the gas face. Side B showcases two tracks from Frenchman Jay Airiness, best known as half of the Parisian disco band Venice Beach. On "Funky Situation," Jay brings some oomph to a disco jazz groove that sails along. But Jay's touch is most evident on "Two of Us', a boogie-house banger that has made its way into a lot of well-connected DJs sets recently.
This 12" has four, diverse joints which can be dropped in different phases of an all-night party - a DJ's best friend!

For their first release of 2017, Phuture Shock Excursions venture further afield with an accomplished remix package, featuring two reworks of Nubian Mindz'(Colin Lindo) soulful house gem 'Somebody Else' - which appeared in its original form on last years 'EXCURSIONS' # 3 split EP.

On this bold occasion the Bristol imprint have enlisted the masterful talents of Cavern of Anti-Matter - the latest side project led by Stereolab co-founder Tim Gane. Having so far remixed songs by mainly indie-rock artists, the Berlin-based outfit turn their hand to the disparate realms of underground dance music for the first time. Also lending their seasoned expertise and going against the grain is Sean O'Hagan - the frontman of experimental indie-pop stalwarts The High Llamas.

Residing on the A-side is Cavern of Anti-Matter's epic reconstruction, which eschews the synth- heavy kosmische explorations they're widely known for, in favour for a more dance floor-leaning direction that takes Lindo's vocals on a funky, kaleidoscopic trip across the galaxy via 80s Detroit. Laced with crisp drum machine beats, groovy analogue synth lines aplenty and lush shimmering chords reminiscent of Gane's former groop, it sits somewhere between the raw electro-funk of Cybotron and quite possibly what The Neptunes would sound like if they made techno. While on the flipside Sean O'Hagan serves up a dreamy dub, where select fragments of the original vocals float across soothing passages of live instrumentation. Before the arrangement seamlessly flits between moments of jazzy electric piano grooves and swirling organs, through to melodic baroque pop interludes in 3/4 time - that probably wouldn't sound out of place in the scene of a Pixar animated movie. Shy of just three minutes in length, it's delightfully short and sweet, yet leaves you wanting more upon every listen.

Bristol based 'Ment' steps up again for Honey Glazed Records with two cuts of melodic house that are packed with life and soul. A side - 'A Kind Of Us' sets off its warm grooves with shimmering synths and a looping melodic vocal sample. The track builds, wiggles and morphs until an infectious trumpet hook breaks out. Ments' ability to carve out warm and heart-felt melodies is clear on both of his tracks on this record. The B Side - 'My Days' - sees him use a wider array of instruments to provide a more jazz influenced track. Amongst the dipping and diving bass and masterful tinkering on the keys, he still retains the dance floor in mind. The result is a very intelligent piece of music that will still get the floor moving.On the other side of this 12inch comes three quite contrasting remixes of 'A Kind Of Us'. The emerging talent 'Ross From Friends' brings his trademark lo-fi melodic touch. He creates his own unique hook, with synths from the original only used as a backdrop. Troy Gunner - fresh from an exciting release on Monki's Zoo Music, wastes no time putting his stamp on the original. The track opens with a beefy, hypnotic bass loop. Troy's trademark driving and menacing drums soon come swirling in. He then manages to twist the originals summery, warm synths into a dark and eerie break down before ramping up the hypnotic drums and bass again. Ramu returns to Honey Glazed with a funky 303 jam over cut up synths from the original.The result is a versatile EP that caters for lots of different moods and styles, all packaged inside a sleeve designed by talented Bristol artist and frequent Honey Glazed collaborator - Rosie Carmichael.

Championsound continue to blaze a trail, showcasing some of the hottest new talent to emerge from Ireland's vibrant music scene...
Following hot on the heels of the premiere release on Champion Sound in 2013 , next in line comes the work of prolific Northern Irish producer, T-Polar, whose previous releases on Acroplane, Saigon Recordings, Morris Audio, !Kaboogie Records and Rebirth garnered the support of everyone from Mary Anne Hobbs to 2562 to Boddika.
In keeping with his previous output and adding to what must surely be Ireland's deepest discography in electronic music (dating back to 2004), T-Polar (aka Gary Spence) releases Feetwork, an EP which hop-scotches genres, roughened up by the searing properties of hoover bass, teamed with tough, rolling kicks, nods to leftfield House and vintage rave, and peppered with skittering two-step grit.

The remix in the pack comes from the increasingly ubiquitous Unknown whose Youtube uploads and remixes have been setting the internet alight with speculation.

Impressive and versatile House music 4 tracker for every situation on the floor.The 'To Be Overmodest EP' is an outstanding performance by Jan Ketel & Siggatunez completed by a highly recommended remix from London-based Harry Wolfman

As usual FSOJ is compiled by Compost head honcho Michael Reinboth with a solid sense of leftfield tracks, punchy floorfillers, ghostly, cinematic, balearic, frazzled, bitter-sweet or mind-shaking hybrid tunes.
Several magazines voted FSOJ as the one of the best compilation series of all time. With this series starting 1995 the term Future Jazz became a genre landmark.

FSOJ 13 including some exclusives, sought-after tracks and previously unreleased tracks. Some highlights are: First of all the Van Hai track in a Ripperton remix is a perfect opener into a tranquil music venture. A sheer bliss tune. Montezumas Rache - Wu Du Wu', which was only released on vinyl before - still difficult to find the original 12' - is a freaky outstanding funk hybrid. Karim Sahraoui - with a punchy Detroit-ish track, picked up from Derrick May's Transmat label - is currently in the works with a follow up 12' later in 2017 on Compost. Acid Pauli delivers a brand new dubby balearic remix, which he recently did for Matanza, a live band from Chile. Peter Kruder came up with something special exclusive, a warm breath in the open air tune, which drives listeners into a chilled wormhole. Beside new names, bigger names like Axel Boman, Tony Allen with a Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbauer remix, you'll find more lefties tracks from respected labels like Studio Barnhus, Innervisions, Lovemonk, Transmat, Mule, Tru Thoughts, Rebirth, Ninja Tune and m.o. next to other exclusive deliveries by Manuel Tur, Marsmobil, coupled up with semi exclusives: the first time on vinyl or digital.

Really Swing is proud to introduce two of the Italy's most consistently exciting producers AD Bourke & Raiders Of The Lost Arp on their 10" series, dropping three funky jazz infused disco gems, Vol.9 is dedicated to the magic sound of Piero Piccioni and his superb collaboration with master italian comedian Alberto Sordi.

COMPANY). Underground dance tracks with soul.

The debut release celebrates the Afro-disco and boogie scene of South Africa, - where Salsoul meets Soweto. Comes housed in a new look Sofrito house sleeve.

The three track EP features Teaspoon & The Waves - led by veteran alto player Teaspoon Ndelu. They released one album in 1980, covering a mix of disco and funk sounds for the SA dancefloors. Oh yeh Soweto is a cheeky version of Lamont Dozier's Going Back To My Roots - changing the lyrics and toughening up the beats, but with the same killer riffs. Saturday Night Special is from the same LP, a spaced out Afro Disco groove with excellent percussion and psychedelic synths, re-edited by the Sofrito team.

The B side features a track by the Nzimande Allstars - another mysterious group of session musicians. The drawn out groove of Highway Sporo Disco fuses a heavy disco backing with jive guitar and stellar horns and organ for a unique taste of the underground sound of the Cape.

Coming up soon on Sofrito Super Singles will be a slice of Trinidad Soca Disco and some raw Haitian sounds.

We reckon it's time for a full Junktion EP on Outplay!
You can say Wide Awake is an appropriate title after a wonderful 2015 with a string of EP's on Sleazy Beats, Razor-n-Tape and Rose Records.This four tracker explores the sound he's been developing over the years and even touches a newer side.
The EP opens with the title track 'Wide Awake' and embodies the signature Junktion sound with a summery balearic touch.
'What We Are' is a faster synth laden affair coupled with his usual sample action. 'Sunny Side Up' is what the title says it is, a sunny Disco track driven by a groovy bassline and a funky rhythm guitar. The EP closes down with 'Don't Mess Up' for a more contemplative jazzy track with some smooth sampling and afro touches.

Once a distant message written in the stars, the wisdom of Soul Clap has been beamed down to Earth in the form of EFUNK - Everybody's Freaky Under Natures Kingdom - their debut album on Wolf + Lamb.

The Florida based Brookside imprint have dug deep into the Philly master tapes and let NYC master-mixer Mike Maurro loose on a couple of stone cold classics from the catalog! Maurro, a Queens based DJ and mixer since 1986 has become one of the top remixers out there today with his own, faithful takes on numerous dance classics from the last 30+ years. Here, he tackles 2 cuts from Philadelphia International recording artists and Soul, Funk and Disco legends - Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes. "Bad Luck" takes up side-A of the 12", a glorious 13 minute remix that just oozes class. This one was made with DJ's in mind, extended drum breaks, elongated sections that squeeze every drop of sweet Philly Soul out onto the dancefloor. Side-B sees a fantastic mix of the evergreen classic "The Love I Lost", clocking in at just under 12 minutes. A slow burning version with the instrumentation and arrangements up front for the first few minutes before the track unfolds and Teddy's iconic vocals grace our eardrums. Incredible! These mixes are ESSENTIAL for any Disco/soul/Funk fans out there, unmissable for the DJ's, legitimately remastered and pressed onto high quality 12" singles in conjunction with all rights holders.

From the realms of Buenos Aires' legendary and undocumented nightlife comes a new EP by DJs Pareja - who have been generously introducing us to their nocturnal dancefloor visions since the very beginning of Cómeme, shaping not only the label's sound and message but also influencing heavily the modern takes on Techno in Latin America.
Here's their EP "Alto" literally meaning "High", and this is where it's supposed to take you and surely will.
ALTO: The title track is up there, sleazy and ecstatic, with Mariano (ever responsible for the vocals in this outfit) incessantly repeating: "me siento alto" (I feel high), playing with this very literal translation into Spanish over a throbbing bass line reminiscent of the most sensual variations of crooning techno such as "Erotic Illusions" by Nick Holder or the most darkly seductive productions of Baby Ford or Closer Musik.


BWOO: This tune is direct; this tune is made for the impact on the body mechanics. We had to think of Munich, of Cologne in the 90ies but - true to the Pareja's credo, lacking of any nostalgia, instead looking forward with bouncing acidic euphoria that knows no yesterday and no tomorrow.
CLUB DE LA LOCURA: Always clinging to the utopic idea of the dancefloor as an unreal place of dream and magic, a place of craziness (locura), a place the aliens, DJs Pareja's "Club de la locura" keeps manifesting this idea, associating it with something obscure, and so they say: feline.
MAD BOX: The name refers to a small and very cheap synthesizer locally produced in the outskirts of the capital. It produces a crazy drone that is present throughout the whole track, Diego and Mariano also using other cheap and small gear and pushing it to its limits. The tune somehow sums up the different ideas and vibes of the other three tracks, their intensity and chaos, their electric sensations, being the probably most spaced out of the EP, and inevitably hypnotic and lysergic

Another killer release from the essential re -edits/rarities label Moton.Number 39 brings us three more obscurities lovingly edited by label head honcho Diesel with the funky as hell Feels So Good leading the EP. Kicking off the B side you will find a great Latin version of Ian Dury's Wake Up, then rounding off the EP is Discomora classically cut and spliced to perfection for your dancefloor pleasure.

BEER serves up a second edition of edits, this time finely sliced & chopped by Jacques Renault. Jacques doesn't go in for trickery, his quality as maker of edits shows clearly in these four cuts from Henry Rodrick, HNNY, Black Fan and DJ Duke.
This is certified dancefloor dynamite. Limited stamped 12" ! .

Fall of 2016 sees Midnight Magic ready to enchant us once more with the much-anticipated birth of their 2nd studio album, the wondrously eclectic Free From Your Spell. Going back to their roots in Los Angeles, Morgan Wiley, and Tiffany Roth, alongside the rest of the boogie nonet, have prepared a refined feast of genre-bending songs. The ever so diverse moods of Free From Your Spell make it a seductive journey. With each song mixed seamlessly into the next, the record coalesces into one long disco odyssey, reminiscing Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer's concept albums "Four Seasons of Love" and "A Love Trilogy". Moods, genres, and styles intertwine like an aural kaleidoscope, the album electrifying with its striking harmony. Whilst exuberantly borrowing from past decades, Free From Your Spell more than holds its own as a self-assured, innovative body of work. Midnight Magic's Free From Your Spell is an offer one can't refuse. An attractive deal in the form of disco escapism, traveling through its various shades, emotions, and incarnations, a comprehensive revival of the genre for modern ears. It's Studio 54, It's Moroder,Amanda Lear, Gino Soccio, and Grace Jones. It's a whole palette of 1980's R'n'B and cosmic funk. Despite all the music references of past eras Free From Your Spell is very much a current album, a mature demonstration of genuine skills in songwriting, a multi-instrumental banquet of sounds, a coherent collection of ambitious dance tracks and a beautiful celebration of eclecticism. Add to this some of Tiffany Roth's most memorable vocals to date and you arrive at one of the year's most exciting releases. There is a strong reason for both "midnight" and "magic" in the name of the band after all.
