Lyrics : 
Something always seemed to be surreal
When you always knew what to do with me
I gotta find another way to stand
You’ll no longer be here, baby tell me what’s the deal

It’s still ringing in my head
All the words you tried to say, and I know you tried to help
But I gotta walk away
And I won’t hold you back again

When I’m out at night, lighted by the moon
I wonder what you’d do
Then I’m in my car, on my way home
I wanna drive to you
When I’m out at night, lighted by the moon
I wonder “Where are you ?”
Then I’m in my car, on my way home
I know I still wanna drive to you

Sometimes I can’t find the words to say
‘Cause you always said you still liked me
Please go find somebody else to share
Anything you need, baby I don’t know what’s the deal

It’s still ringing in my head
All the words you tried to say, and I know you tried to help
But I gotta walk away
And I won’t hold you back again

When I’m out at night, lighted by the moon
I wonder what you’d do
Then I’m in my car, on my way home
I wanna drive to you
When I’m out at night, lighted by the moon
I wonder “Where are you ?”
Then I’m in my car, on my way home
I know I still wanna drive to you

I see in your eyes you won’t cry for me
Then I don’t know why I can’t stop caring
I see in your eyes you won’t cry for me
Then I don’t know why I can’t stop caring yeah

Astels - Drive To You

Red hot Italian DJ and production collective Aura Safari is back with a second full-length album, Island Dreams. It lands on Hell Yeah Recordings on September 15th and is another live and sun-kissed odyssey through balmy Mediterranean evenings, gorgeous sundown sessions and funky analogue grooves.  

Andrea Moretti, Lorenzo Lavoratori, Daniele Melloni, Nicholas Iammatteo, Lorenzo Francioli, Ruggero Bonucci and Nicola Pitassio are Aura Safari, and between them, they play drums, percussion, bass, keys, and guitar. They contributed to the first volume of the Buena Onda compilation in 2020 on this label, a year after serving up a debut album on London's Church Records. Since then they have become ever more entrenched in their local scene in Perugia. They are skilled musicians and instrumentalists with an effortlessly charming sound inspired by having grown up attending the Umbria Jazz Festival and spending winters keeping warm at the legendary Red Zone Club, while these days and host their own Tropical Climax parties each month in the town centre.

Aura Safari are also deep-digging music collectors who have extensive and far-reaching tastes. When cooking up their sounds they draw on everything from Afro to Italo, house to disco, 80s boogie to world music, jazz and Balearic beats. This new album shows that once more across four sides of vinyl that sweep you up and transport you to somewhere idyllic.

The title track kicks off with steamy Mediterranean grooves embellished with lush Rhodes chords and sprinkles of cosmic magic. 'Sur Mon Balconnet' then slips into dubbed-out disco territory with 80s synths and leggy drums while 'Riserva Naturale' is a new-age jazz house sound with majestic lead synths and heart-melting chords that speak of a sunset dance on the beach. 'Onda' has squelchy boogie bass with hip-swinging drums, 'Wave Riding' is a lo-fi funk excursion with hints of West Coast Californian swagger and 'Magic Malbe' is loose-limbed Balearica with clear blue skies and blissed-out chords.

'Dancing in the Moonlight' featuring legendary Zeke Manyika has all the vibrant feelings of bubblegum pop with Afro vocals and steel drum sounds next to rich xylophone sounds. There is plenty of heat and exotic charm to the proto-Afro house of 'Tropical Climax' and as well as dub versions of 'Sur Mon Balconnet' and 'Dancing in the Moonlight' come the scuffed-up Dam-Funk style beats and boogie of 'Disco Mantra' before closer 'Patagonia' shuts down with elastic drums and bass and playful synth leads that send you home wanting more.

Island Dreams is a tropical escape to a rich world of fusion sounds that look back to go forwards. It's a feel-good record to accompany hot nights and lazy afternoons, cocktails at dusk and dancing till dawn.

Nuela Charles is an alternative soul singer/songwriter based in Edmonton, Canada, known for her soulful vocals and captivating stage presence. Noted as "one to watch" by the legendary SoulTrain.com, Nuela has become an indie synch darling, landing eleven (11) TV placements off of her debut album "Aware" alone!

Cited by the U.K.'s Metro publication as "cocked, locked and ready to be shot onto the world stage with a soulful voice that may one day fill the Amy Winehouse-shaped holes in everyone's hearts," Nuela has brought her distinct voice to various stages across North America. Over the last several years she has showcased at Canadian Music Week multiple times, headlined an evening at the Edmonton Jazz Festival, and even landed an opening support slot for Ziggy Marley. Nuela's debut American performance was at the uber-coveted "It's A School Night" showcase in Los Angeles, on the personal invite of Chris Douridas, popular DJ and musical tastemaker at Santa Monica, California's radio station KCRW, after he added Charles' saxy "Unfortunate Love" into rotation.

The lead single "Crumbling Down" from her 2018 Juno Award nominated sophomore album "The Grand Hustle," landed Nuela a nod from pop culture staple FADER.com, and spread nationwide as it landed on the CBC Radio 2 Top 20 charts for seven weeks straight. Adding another four (4) TV synchs to her name, notably on ESPN and the CW's hit show "Jane The Virgin," Charles is ready to release more of her fiery brand of cinematic soul.

Nuela's upcoming single "Do It Right" (March 2, 2018) is a snappy, Bob Fosse inspired, head bopper, co-written and produced by Grammy-nominated Rob Kleiner (Andra Day, Sia, Ceelo Green) in Los Angeles, CA. Already with an ESPN TV placement in the bag "Do It Right" is sure to turn some heads and with an album's worth of new songs ready for release, Nuela is geared up to take 2018 by storm.

Damper Down - Cheshire Revamp

Two friends, Adriano Prestel and Felix Kirner, decided to make music together in 2017. Felix is a well known DJ and Producer. Adriano is a singer and composer. Both are living in Munich, Bavaria. To them it was quite clear.. It had to happen. And it did.
Since every collaboration needs a ritual, weekly visits to vietnamese restaurants right before the studio-session became mandatory. The Name “Pho Queue” came up while standing in a queue waiting for their pho-soup. Since then they are addicted to Pho and Nem Nem.
After recording the first songs at Felix Kirner’s studio they were joined by his brother Ferdinand Kirner, a brilliant guitarist. Since the three of them are very versatile and oldschool-oriented, the musical roadmap was pretty clear from the beginning: Classic synthesizers, funky 80’s guitars, punchy basslines and soulful vocals.
Layering different organic and digital sounds to turn them into one unique instrument helped them define their own sound and to focus on each musician’s individual strength. The symbiosis came to a peak with their first release “Sweet“.

Disco Bizarre releases "Free Love Vol. 1" - a charity compilation to save Berlin's legendary KitKat Club 

On Friday July 3rd, Berlin's favorite funky crew Disco Bizarre releases Free Love Vol. 1, an album full of only original disco tracks. All profits go directly to KitKat Club - to help the space survive. 
As most clubs in Berlin, KitKat Club is in serious financial difficulties. The continued closure and thus lack of income in combination with high fixed costs call for creative measures to ensure the survival of the famous fetish club. Since 2018, Disco Bizarre hosts the basement floor on Saturday's club night „Carneball Bizarre“. Over the years, the crew has expanded and added plenty of resident DJs to their roster. They also released their first Vinyl EP in 2019. Now, it's time to support the mothership with full energy with the first KitKat compilation ever - more are to follow! Enjoy 12 banging original disco tracks, created by the network surrounding Disco Bizarre, and support KitKat by buying it - it costs as much as one entry.
