Just some bits I found on an old Mac. 

Apologies if some of this sounds rough. 

Enjoy!

Ash Reynolds - Make Up Ya Mind - FREE DOWNLOAD

Named after two of the three syllables their first names share, Rebekah Pennington and Rebecca Wilson are Ekkah, a Nu-Disco / Funk duo of multi-instrumentalists  from the U.K.  Creating relaxed dance floor bangers inspired by early 80s pop and R&B, Ekkah have reignited the need for a live disco sound which weaves soul, disco and funk into energetic pop tunes. Boasting features in editorial playlists, supporting Clean Bandit and millions of streams already, Ekkah are back with their newest single Waiting 4 You, except this time, Hot Toddy has taken the reigns of this beautiful little song. 

Hot Toddy is now in demand as a remixer, with his takes of Joey Negro, Mousse T, Lovebirds, and his gorgeous version of Crazy P’s ‘Never Gonna Reach Me’ getting props and plays from the likes of The Revenge, Tom Middleton, Pete Tong, King Britt, Tim Sweeney, Tensnake, and Jamie Jones, and Wolf and Lamb. This remix is one you want to hear, he knows what he's doing.

A beautiful dancy bop fit for any stage, dance floor and pool party is what Hot Toddy has created here. You can still just about get the hook from the vocals but they are chopped intelligently in time to the extra bounce added. This one has hit a really nice balance between vocal melody and beat - not too much, not too little. The keys in the background haunt the no mans land in the mix with their dark reverb and the chopped vocals add that extra bit of rhythm and texture to create a really lovely remix. The disco vibe pops through brilliantly and it's still so distinctly Ekkah, but now with the added flair and bounce of Hot Toddy. You get time to breath, absord and expel all of your energy with this track, all within just a few minutes

As the song draws to an end you get gifted that full hook you've been teased with throughout and it really is just a superbly structured song. I said the original was a chart topper, but this will be the one you hear in town, blasted through every sound system.

Oli Stewart is Casbah 73. American-born, Madrid-based DJ, producer, vinyl collector and selector extraordinaire with several decades of experience under his belt.

Classic soul, funk and disco at its finest, with releases on mainstay outlets such as Glitterbox and Lovemonk, we’re extremely proud to have him in the Boogie Angst record bins.

Let’s Invade the Amazon is a highly grooved piece of live musical wizardry, with vocal performances to match. Beautifully extended and ongoing, the steady backbone interplay with funky electric pianos, with the occasional synth riff popping up for a breath of fresh air. And in the words of Casbah himself: “Quite possibly - no, definitely, the only soul-disco track ever to be inspired by Michael Mann's book “The New Climate War”, The Clash, Sun Ra... and Dr Seuss”. 

Next we find Pale Splash of Blue; some top shelf live Moog-, Rhodes- and Hammond featuring jazz funk. Punchy organs stab away alongside Casbah 73’s signature electric piano sprinkles, bouncing around his unique rhythmic groove. All resulting in a driving pace and attractive up-tempo moment; more than worthy of that evening beach club get-together.

On the flip-side we first find Osunlade, the highly revered, African American musician, producer, DJ and label boss at the edges of electronic and house music; whilst always staying firmly rooted in jazz and soul.  Since the start of his career in the early 1990s, Osunlade has been steadily releasing critically acclaimed singles and albums on high profile labels such as Soul Jazz, BBE, Strictly Rhythm, and of course his own label, Yoruba Soul. Furthermore, he also has a wide and varied remix track record, with reworks for the likes of Nightmares On Wax, Roy Ayers, St. Germain, 4 Hero, United Future Organization, Salif Keita and DJ Jazzy Jeff. Hence the link to ask Osunlade for his vision on 'Amazon' was very logical, and is turning out to be a bonafide classic.

Finally, JKriv, the Brooklyn-based producer, DJ, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and label owner. with releases and remixes on labels such as Soundway Records, Glitterbox or his own respected record label, Razor-N-Tape. re-imagines 'Amazon' into a classy and exotic nu-disco scorcher. What else would you expect from the man who worked with the likes of Dimitri From Paris, Horse Meat Disco, and of course on his own nu-disco band Escort.

Kraak & Smaak and Durand Jones are proclaiming the things they would do for love.

Kraak & Smaak links up with Indiana-based, American artist Durand Jones on All for Love. Feeling like the modern equivalent of putting on an old 45, Durand Jones' huge voice glides effortlessly across Kraak & Smaak's signature moments of grandeur. A deep groove spiked with a thumping bass line trades the spotlight spot with Jones’ woody, yet crystal-clear voice. The production feels state-of-the-art; with pleasing horn stabs laying atop of Kraak & Smaak’s trademarked warbled synth stabs, while steadily keeping the 70s Soul connection in the rearview mirror.

Going from strength-to-strength for nearly two decades, Kraak & Smaak effortlessly explores the space between Nu-disco, Jazz, Funk and Soul. Stretching the boundaries of their previous projects, Scirocco and Pleasure Centre, All For Love is an autonomous single that blends
seamlessly into their varied catalogue of evergreen jams. Durand Jones has been steadily making waves with his band Durand Jones & The Indications, and are currently touring their latest full-length effort, Private Space.

The exciting end-of-summer single gently brings together Kraak & Smaak and Durand Jones in the same sonic space and explores some very tasty common ground.

Bondax keep to their 6 week promise with another new release – this time teaming up with Dur-Dur Band. The electronic duo are soundtracking everyone’s summer with a host of new bouncy rhythms and beats. After spins from Annie Mac, Nick Grimshaw and previous appearances at Creamfields and Bestival, Bondax are cementing themselves as powerhouses in the electronic world. With their unique and inspired synth pop sound, Bondax are blending with 80s disco act Dur-Dur Band to give us the send-off this summer deserves. 

Hailing from Somalia, Dur-Dur band were one of the most well known acts on the Mogadishu Disco scene at the time blending funk, disco and soul into one excellent package. 

A lovely mix of funky guitar, percussion and catchy hooks entice you into the weird world of Bondax and Dur-Dur Band. Taking music with bounds of groove, Bondax chop and add layer upon layer of electronic noise to produce a four to the floor disco banger fit for any club, pub or garden. Adding extra pump to the kick and worming a walking bassline into the beat, Bondax and Dur-Dur Band’s venture blends classic 80s disco with modern production through intelligent chops, samples and stabs to bring an old song to an entirely new audience. 

A replayable funky bop to keep your feet and party moving.
