For the 17th installment in our Just For The Night series, selectors take you on their own journey through groove. Anything goes.

We're heading to Amsterdam with Wendel Sield. His Entity EP, released on his own label Obia Records, piqued our interest a few years ago, with its insanely lush percussion & masterful layering, and safe to say we've been following his output keenly since.

OBIA003 saw @trinidadiandeep & the Sonic Movement EP on Obia Records, guided by the Caribbean producer who delves deep into the spirit of the cosmos with a highly percussive & spacious chords filled EP.

Wendel grew up in a family that loved music, surrounded by jazz, soul and funk from an early age. We're stoked he's pulled through with a decidedly deep mix. 🚀

Thanks @wendelsield 🙏

Just For The Night #17 - Wendel Sield

Island Issues is a new umbrella label from Patrick Luca that becomes a parent to Saft, Pulp and Born. It debuts with an EP featuring fresh new versions of Joan Bibiloni Band's classic 'Valerie' by Kiko Navarro & Willie Graff.

Spanish guitarist Joan Bibioni was something of a child musical prodigy who started creating from a young age. He put out a wealth of albums under his own name and just one as Joan Bibiloni Band, 1986's 'Papi, Are You O.K.?'. It is from that record from which 'Valerie' is taken and it is something of a cult underground gem that adds warm and sunny jazz, funk and disco to any party. This package brings together veteran musical maestro Kiko Navarro, who has played all over the world, hosted influential radio shows and released a wide array of music over the last 20+ years, with Ibiza's Willie Graff, a resident at Pacha and respected producer for labels like Music for Dreams and Freerange.

First up is their brilliant Boogie Explosion Mix which is full of energy and hip-swinging grooves. Layers of tropical percussion are lively and organic, with withering synths, big horns and iconic vocals exploding up top. Key solos, tight guitar riffs and big claps all add further fire and colour to this summer heater. The JB Edit is by the man himself and finds Joan going heavy on funky bass guitar twangs and vividly expressive trumpets as the soaring vocals and big drum breaks work the floor into a lather in a more raw and direct fashion.

Next comes the Entre Islas Club Mix which is smooth and deep for those moments when the sun is setting and the daytime atmosphere gets more late night and sultry. The percussion is slick and the chords are muted but joyful as the analog drums bring nostalgic 80s feelings. Last of all is an Entre Islas Dub which strips things back to the seductive house groove and teases with the jazzy keys, shakers and proto-garage house drums all oozing effortless cool.  

This is a fantastic first release from Island Issues that is sure to bring sun-kissed good times to global dance floors this summer and beyond.

x Dj Dissolve - E37: July 27, 2023

First (hopefully of many!) "Jazz (We've Got)" radio show.

I've been wanting to do a show inspired by this idea for the longest while, just mining and digging back through jazz (+more) and hip hop with the art of sampling being a bridging link.

Recognising a sample in a song always felt like such a wonderful easter egg, and I've always found it fascinating how a song can be universally adored, with a small portion of it being loved so much that it would form the DNA of a new piece of music (for me to fall in love with too). The idea that there's this thread connecting artists and music transcending generations, backgrounds and genres is so utterly romantic to me.

Every episode will highlight (mainly) a jazz musician whose music I love, and I'll explore their sound and catalogue through hip hop productions that sampled their sound and recontextualized it to a new generation.

I'm hoping to develop this into a show where I can invite musicians and producers to chat more about the process of sampling as well as their fav samples/approaches to production. I'd also love to get this idea to a point where at the end of every show I can share an obscure jazz or funk track by an artist, and put an open call for producers to share their reworks/reimagining of the song to feature in the next episode. Would be cool for this to be a proper musical exchange!

But! That's for the future. For now I just want to share this 1st episode: an ode to one of my fav trumpet players, the legendary Freddie Hubbard. We'll hear some of his iconic pieces (specifically 'Red Clay') that spread through such a luminary career, retold through the music of A Tribe Called Quest, Charlotte Dos Santos, Gagle, Jack Wilkins, & Raekwon.

2) Jimmy McGriff - On Green Dolphin Street - 1973

“In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.” - Albert Camus

Sabo’s record label, Sol Selectas presents a desert dwelling organic house release by MÖW, which also features a remix from Hot Oasis.

MÖW is an Egyptian artist from Cairo who is back on Sol Selectas after contributing to the label’s Summer Sol VIII compilation. This time MÖW is back with three original tracks that combine traditional instruments and ancient melodies with modern electronic sounds. In addition to Sol Selectas, his music can also be found on other respected imprints such as Cosmic Awakenings, Pipe & Pochet, and Harabe.

On remix duty, Hot Oasis is a Sol Selectas regular whose compelling style of organic house fuses sun-drenched melodies and chugging rhythms with Arabic influences. His music has been a feature of labels ranging from Bar 25 to Stil Vor Talent, and he travels the world as a headline DJ.

The EP’s title track “Hayyah” opens the release with an instrumental intro played on a Mizmir Baladi, which is a traditional Egyptian instrument. The track has powerful vocals by Nass Makan that are layered over a throbbing bassline and shuffling drums.

Next up, “Ya Habayeb” is a powerful track utilising the oriental “bayat” scale, which is played using traditional instruments including the Zurna, Oud, Duff, Riq, and Tabla. The defining element is the emotive male vocal and upbeat percussion that give this track a joyous vibe.

Hot Oasis’ remix of “Ya Habayeb” is true to the original, but with an altered structure that refines the track for a dance floor. He also adds some additional synths to give the track some indie dance undertones.

Closing the release, “Disco Saba” makes use of the traditional “Saba” scale that is at the heart of Arabic folk-law. The arpeggio synth that is central to the track creates upbeat energy that’s augmented by melodies played on Zurna and Mizmir instruments. The track’s powerful drums subside for the tension of the epic breakdown, before the groove takes flight with renewed vigour.

The artwork by Helia Jamali takes us through the lucid dreamscape of the pyramids, where the serpents dance in the sand and the blue lotus flower blossoms.
