Debut release for @canopy.records

Captain Planet propels the track into the 21st century teaming up with the horn section, keys and synth from the Ibibio Sound Machine players to inject maximum flavour and depth. Replayed bass, hefty bottom end, slick drum enhancements and added groove elements result in dance-floor dynamite

With release nr. 11, Luv Shack Records are once again eager to exalt the diversity of their releases, while keeping up the quality.

LUV011 is the split EP of the two up and coming electronic music duos "Manhooker" and "Space Echo". Whilst both projects are still relatively new to the scene, they have equally made a stir with their first releases.

Manhooker consists of the two Berliners by choice Tomasz “Guiddo” Switala and Sebastian “Mavin” Magassouba. Their first release appeared on Ostgut Ton´s sublabel 'Unterton' and their second EP was recently released on german heavy hitters 'Sonar Kollektiv' - a collab with ex New Yorker Snax, featuring a remix by Justus Köhncke.

With 'Pushin & Shovin', Manhooker are once again evoking the spirit of classic soulful house hymns. It's an uplifting mix of 90s organs, filtered arpeggios and thick drums all held together by an acid bassline and Mavin´s shimmering vocals. And not to forget the trumpet solo!

The remix of 'Pushin & Shovin' comes from Brazilian wunderkind ROTCIV (who has already remixed Manhooker on their Unterton release). He strips off the smoothness of the original in favor of a more raw and analogue vibe. Its groove seems like a merger of modern electro and classic house, and although ROTCIV´s trademark stabs and pads are used quite ecstatically on this remix, the song structure remains just as strong as in the original.

On The flipside we have Space Echo, the duo of Viennese producer caTekk and (Luv Shack`s very own) Lee Stevens. Their first ever production as a duo was a remix for none other than Austra on Domino Records.

They're offering two equally powerful cuts on the B-side; 'Soul Power' is nothing short of a club burner. A mighty and continuously building ride of funk organs and disco drums, all with a delightfully modern touch. When the vocal kicks in for the first time, ringing in the break, the audience will surely fall into a frenzy when exposed to it! The disco guitars are just the icing on the cake.

'Soul People' takes a slightly more sensual path. Expect dreamy rhodes, dubbed out percussive organs, an almost reggae worthy bassline, a painfully sweet vocal hook and a sharp rhythm that make this track a perfect choice for every warmup, after-hours and daytime set!

With all its ingredients, LUV011 will provide something for everyone who loves electronic music with soul!

Chara and The Salsoul Orchestra - Dance A Little Bit Closer is one of my favourite Disco tunes.
This tune samples it to great effect.
Hypnotic as anything with a thumping bass!

Alexis Laik - Danse Danse Danse (1985)

Detroit duo Floorplan, formed by techno pioneer Robert Hood and his daughter Lyric Hood, put their spin on Sophie Lloyd’s Classic anthem ‘Calling Out’ along with New York house legend Danny Krivit in this unmissable remix package. Sophie produced ‘Calling Out’ in a dreary January as an antidote to the pervading doom and gloom of the news, summoning the power of the most joy-filled sound of all, gospel. The track radiates all the live atmosphere of gospel worship in mid flow, with soul trio Dames Brown bringing the authenticity. Floorplan’s Revival Mix singles out the piano and organ riffs with Hood’s hometown influences always apparent. Their Club Mix follows, pushing the track into deeper dancefloor territory with its pumping bassline. Danny Krivit rounds off the package with his extended funk-inflicted edit featuring looped vocals and DJ-friendly breaks.

DUSTY SPRINGFIELD - Spooky (Quinten 909 Remix)

In September 2019, Soundway Records will release Esa Presents Amandla: Music To The People, a double vinyl electronic music compilation by DJ and producer Esa Williams. 

The first single from this album is "Tucheza (Esa Extended Mix)" by Ze Spirits Band, a young group from Bagamoyo in Tanzania.

Growing up in Cape Town, South Africa, during the last days of Apartheid, Esa recalls the immense power that music had in resisting oppression and division. “Amandla, Awethu”, which literally means “the power is ours”, was an ubiquitous chant echoing throughout the politically charged atmosphere of the time – a call to unite, and a call from which this release derives not only its title, but its intention as well. 

“Music was a crucial way of bringing people and communities together”, reflects Esa, “and it’s what I hope to achieve with this compilation, too”. 

For Esa Williams is not only a musical polymath but also passionate about connecting people through music. A skilled DJ, producer and educator, Esa has found ways of bringing people together and enhancing the talent present - from being a band leader, reigniting the legendary Ata Kak band from Ghana, or a collaborator with the likes of Tanzanian artist Mim Suleiman, to focusing his energy on electronic music-focused educational programmes in Cuba, Brazil, and East & South Africa 

The result is a rainbow of complementary electronic styles hailing from not only South Africa but further afield, including zouk from Brazil and the French Antilles, as well as Afro-futurism and Bacardi House. Together, they form a comprehensive picture that connects the dots of Esa’s musical journey – from growing up in South Africa, to artists he has encountered in his worldwide travels who have helped develop his identity as a musician.

Asso - 'Don't Stop'

Released in 1983 on a small Italian label named 'Ace Records'. As far as I can tell, they only had five releases from late '82 through '83. This Italo song was the B-side of a single on which the A-side was a cover version of Steely Dan's 1972 classic, 'Do It Again'.

The Athenian label Bonfido Disques is back with the second installment of their crowd pleasing series. Maintaining the exotic, feel-good, nostalgic and analogue 80's synth sound of the first release, (https://soundcloud.com/gouranga/bonfido-disques-fixed-angles)
Bonfido Disques is starting to define the imprint's sound and at the same time breaking the boundaries between Tropical Disco and Afro House music. 
Obscure percussion blended with electronic beats, over High-Life and Bubblegum vibes. Four top-notch revisions for the dancefloor on a limited edition hand-stamped 12".

Anikana semlessly blends African sounds with classic disco-style vocals, creating an entrancing effect on the dancefloor.

BONFIDO DISQUES is a new born label with a vision towards nostalgic Exotic Disco and Afro Cosmic House remakes for the dancefloor.

The Classic Music Company by Luke Solomon & Derrick Carter continues to play the game under their own conditions. As a label it never died it just retreated for a while in order to come back stronger. All hail the king because the king is back. Long live Classic!
