Since slipping out on Leng last year, Paul ‘Mudd’ Murphy’s first collaboration with singer/songwriter David Harks, ‘Susta’, has become a much-played modern Balearic classic, with DJs and listeners alike responding to the track’s attractive blend of sun-kissed nu-disco instrumentation, warming melodies and deliciously evocative lead vocals from Jaanika Leino AKA JaneLy.

Now the track returns for 2021 in the shape of two superb new remixes from Chicagoan deep house legend Ron Trent, who four years ago delivered similarly ear-catching revisions of Mudd and Pollard’s ‘Far Away’ as part of the 10th anniversary celebrations for Murphy’s Claremont 56 label.

As you’d expect given Trent’s impeccable track record over the last three decades, both revisions are stunning. He begins by eking every last ounce of soul from Leino’s brilliant vocal on a remix that’s warming, deep and luscious. Combining elements of Murphy and Harks’ colourful, synth-heavy original mix – including the lusciously tactile bassline and boogie-style synth flourishes – with his own yearning chords, hand percussion sounds and a shuffling, samba-tinged house beat, Trent re-imagines ‘Susta’ as a future vocal deep house classic. Melodious, musically intricate, infectious and summery, it’s a remix for the ages.

It comes accompanied by a Dub Mix that successfully shows off the intricacy of Trent’s production and additional instrumentation while keeping both eyes firmly on the dancefloor. Beginning with effects-laden synth sounds reminiscent of the mid-‘80s proto-house classics by Paul Simpson, Winston Jones and Boyd Jarvis, the mix sees Trent skilfully add selected snippets of Leino’s lead vocal to a backing track rich in delay-laden synthesizer sounds, reverb-rich chords, echoing percussion hits and chords so warming they feel like a late-night, loved-up bear hug for your ears. Like the A-side vocal version, Trent’s dub is breath-taking and spine-tingling in equal measure.

Doorly & Colour Castle Present Misingo - Jaspers Keys [Reptile Dysfunction]

From time to time, a new name will appear on the scene with a unique, standout sound that commands people at all levels of the industry to sit up and take notice. Following two sold-out EPs on his vinyl-only imprint, Semi Delicious, UK producer Demi Riquísimo is one such example and on the 9th August he’ll be teaching another lesson on how to ignite the dancefloor with his third release of the year: 54 Reasons EP.

Another four-track, tour-de-force fusion of house, disco and electro, the 54 Reasons EP opens with ‘Bow UFO’ – an upbeat, percussive Disco-fused banger on which Demi gives us a taste of summer by bringing in synthy notes and adding an acidic edge to the track. A2’s ‘Anxious Elephants’ neatly follows on with its deeper, darker sonics, a groove-filled bassline and hypnotic lyrics, topped off with warm pads and soft flute instruments to perfectly balance things out. Flipping over the wax and you’ll find two more on-point cuts: ‘Point One’ delivers with its effortlessly rolling, Disco-tinged groove, as ’54 Reasons’ closes out the EP In a big way, leaving listeners with no questions regarding the enviable talent on display throughout Demi’s productions. 

"I'm completely overwhelmed by the support for my first two EPs on my label, Semi Delicious. SEMID003 "54 Reasons" is an honour to the conception of electronic music. Starting in the mid-70s with venues like Studio 54 and producer Gorgio Moroder, into the early 80s with Afrobeat, 90s with Acid House and the 00s when I started to party and listen to the Electro movement, artists like Booka Shade, Erol Alkan and Justice... All the way to the present time – the best time, as it’s a cocktail of all of these eras!" – Demi Riquísimo

Just a few months after the release of his debut EP, Demi has already amassed the kind of support that seasoned veterans can only hope for – multiple plays of every track from SEMID002 on BBC Radio 1 by Danny Howard, Pete Tong, Annie Mac and Eats Everything, and DJ support that includes names like Skream, Optimo, Dusky, Ậme, Horse Meat Disco and even Busy P who described it as “just perfect”. With the diary now filling up with sets at Glastonbury, El Dorado and Gottwood this summer, before an Autumn run of the UK’s biggest club events, 2019 is certainly shaping up to be a game changer for the mysterious Demi Riquísimo.

Tortured Soul's TSTC Records presents "Choice Cuts," a compilation of timeless classics from Cooly's Hot Box!

Formed in New York City's thriving acid jazz scene during the 1990s by Tortured Soul's lead singer and drummer, John-Christian Urich, and renown soul singer Angela Johnson, Cooly's Hot Box burst onto the scene with with "Don't Throw My Love Around," featured on the first Giant Steps compilation released by London's Downtown Records.  The song was later sampled for the main riff in Armand Van Helden's "Funk Phenomena," which rose to #1 on the Canadanian RPM Dance Chart and #38 on the UK Singles Chart in 1996.  The band soon found themselves opening for the likes of B.B. King, A Tribe Called Quest, Zapp, The Neville Brothers, Guru, and India.Arie.  After a series of singles and remixes, Cooly's Hot Box released two full-length albums, "Take It," and "Don't Be Afraid: Get On," to audience and critic rave reviews.

Cooly's Hot Box formed the launch pad for the careers of Urich and Johnson, with Urich going on to form seminal live house act, Tortured Soul, and working with producers like Roger Sanchez and DJ Spinna and performing many hundreds of concerts worldwide.  Johnson has since enjoyed international success as a solo artist and composer, releasing several albums and singles, and writing chart-topping hits for artists like Double (Japan).

If you've never heard Cooly's Hot Box before, or if you've misplaced your original vinyl, TSTC Records has your back.  Here are 14 Choice Cuts, culled from the albums and singles of Cooly's catalog, re-released in their original sheen for your listening pleasure!
