Pete Herbert @ Campfire 1st June 2023

We are very excited to welcome our next islanders: Discothèque Tropicale. 

Discothèque Tropicale is a London-based collective and label that celebrates borderless music and diverse creative cultures from across the world. Their global musical voyage has taken them to every corner of all things soulful and funky; with lots of Brazilian influence, Zouk, Soukous, Funaná and Reggae. Their record label has had a heavy focus on Afro-Carribean reissues (especially Zouk), and their upcoming release has already been played by heavyweight DJs such as Antal, Hunee and Palms Trax!

Keep an eye out for their future reissues, and until then, enjoy their Islander Cast which is true to form: rarified goodness from tropical climes!

This one is very very good...

Taking over the peak time slot at our Beate Uwe debut, Berlin veteran @delfonic delivered a masterclass in selection. Opening with soul classics like The Pointer Sisters' "Happiness" and Masters At Work's edit of Taana Gardner's "When You Touch Me", his set seamlessly blended jazz house, soul, and disco into something truly special.

Recorded live at Beate Uwe, November 30th 2024.

Released in 1978 by classical guitarist John Williams and taken from the LP 'Travelling'. This has always been a favourite of mine, but it needed some work to make it playable. 
This is stretched out. I added the pads, synth, congas, vibraphone, piano, and even my cats meow to give it a different feel :-)
