Legendary DJ Daniele Baldelli, who was resident at the infamous Cosmic Club on Lake Garda and pioneer of the ‘cosmic’ sound, joins forces with Italian maestro DJ Rocca and takes File Under Disco on a journey into outer disco space.
Famous as an extremely eclectic and open-minded DJ, here Baldelli transports this approach to the production of ‘Funknoizer’. And in the hands of a master producer like Rocca the result is a track which fuses Dub, Afro, Disco and electronic elements seamlessly into a tasty alternative discoid brew.
Remix action comes from Brasilian duo Selvagem (big fans of Baldelli) who’s reputation grows and grows with every spin of each record and every release that passes through their talented hands. Here they dress the original in leopard skin pants and throw into into an all night, outdoor carnival party where anything goes.
Next up Pete Herbert & Dicky Trisco take the original on a heads down Disco trip and work it to the bone. Live driving bass, funky clav and a glorious piano line do a wonky waltz with the the Afro dub essentials of the original. 
Finally the man himself DJ Rocca treats us to a very classy disco boogie version that would have rocked legendary parties back in the halcyon days of NYC Disco.  Out now!

London label @axeonwax-records has achieved quite a fair bit since its 2014 inception. Between itself and its ‘grittier’ sub-label Axe Traxx, they’ve clocked in a combined 11 releases consisting of works by proper staples in the scene — Chaos In The CBD, Glenn Underground, and Mall Grab, just to touch on a few. Now, they’re back with yet another sub-label — a hip, trendy and super fun younger sibling of the Axe imprints, with PNP 001 as their first offering.

PNP 001 compiles together re-edits of classic tunes, a task London local @DeejayAstral (fka Palace) is certainly not unfamiliar with. His B1 ‘Say Yes’ opens with a muffled, mumbling take of the spoken-word intro to Floetry’s 2003 hit single. Astral's play with filters lends the up-pitched neo-soul vocals an even more seductive flair. The rework’s feature of sensual jazzy keys and hints of a trip-hop groove may highlight the RnB original’s dreamy bedroom vibes, but the addition of popping kicks and crunchy raw percussion really repurposes the track into a serious dance-floor heater, all without any overstatement. Deejay Astral sure knows how to please.

Sporting a touch of lo-fi, a healthy dose of disco and a whole lotta oomph, the rest of the tracks do not disappoint. It’s no wonder PNP 001 already has the likes of DJ Seinfeld, Baltra and Banoffee Pies on board with early support. Definitely keep your eyes peeled for the release!

Fernando Pulichino is no stranger to Leng Records. The bass guitar-wielding Argentine made his first appearance on the label five years ago via the cosmic disco/psychedelic rock fusion of Blue Impala, returning two years later with the similarly inclined brilliance of Giant Desert. Pulichino then resurfaced on Leng late last year with a superb, digital-only three-tracker called Natural 77.

Now he’s back on wax, buoyed by the success of the acclaimed Shining EP on Is It Balearic? Recordings. This time round he’s in Search of Indigo, shaping hazy, sun-baked soundscapes around his distinctive basslines, echo-laden synthesizers, meandering Fender Rhodes solos, gentle dub vibrations and glistening, early morning jazz guitars. This is music for the heads, hips and feet, soaked in Fernet and left in the afternoon sun to slowly ripen.

Arguably the most arresting of the four cuts is the title track, a head-in-the-clouds vocal number rich in bubbly electronic riffs, laidback electro beats, ricocheting percussion hits, swirling wind effects and rubbery funk-rock bass.

Pulichino’s penchant for intergalactic disco shufflers once again comes to the fore on killer “Sundown Visions”, a saucer-eyed chugger that simultaneously throbs, pulses and sparkles thanks to sparring synthesizer motifs and eyes-closed space rock guitars. We suspect Daniele Baldelli and Andrew Weatherall would approve.

Elsewhere, Pulichino indulges his passion for sofa-surfing jazz-funk on solo-laden EP closer “Frontera”, a relaxed and undulating jam rich in cascading electric guitars, fluid electric piano, delay-laden flourishes and deep space synthesizers. You won’t know whether to lie down, dance enthusiastically or wearily shuffle; either way, play at sunrise or sundown for maximum enjoyment.

The EP also boasts a first vinyl outing for the title track of last year’s digital-only EP, “Natural ‘77”. Seemingly partly inspired by legendary West Coast funkateers Steely Dan, it’s a lazy, low-slung affair full of languid guitar solos, freestyle vocal improvisations, bongo-laden drums and one of his most inspired and elastic basslines to date.

PREMIERE: Hot Coffee - On The Verge [Super Tuff Records]

Kampana delivers once again with a pair of dance floor gems that will please lovers of funk, disco and gospel alike.

On the A-side, @aroop-roy means serious business with 'Reason to Dance'. Driven by an outrageous slap bass, infectious horn stabs and a limb-shaking vocal refrain, it's no surprise that this has been THE secret weapon of his recent sets around the world.

On the flip, Detroit native Peter Croce, fresh from the huge success of his Razor-N-Tape EP, comes in equally strong, with the gospel-fuelled disco cut 'Just Like Heaven'. The track builds patiently, lingering on a raw disco groove, honing in on a powerful brass section and spirit-lifting vocals, and eventually climaxing with epic strings and thunderous piano.

Business As Usual February 2018: Luke Solomon + Special Guest Ashley Beedle & Hot Mix: Phil Gerus

For the first release of 2018 we welcome @harrywolfman to the Outplay family! Having followed his work for the last couple of years we’re very happy to have him deliver this varied 4-tracker, which very well might be some of his best work to date.

The a-side starts off with ‘Hitch’. A warm and dusty groover driven by rhodes, a rubbery bassline and a thudding kick. A lovely string piece in the middle of the track slowly builds up to the break for it to return to the head nodding groove soon after. The added percussion gives it a nice lively feel as well.
‘Pigs in Blankets’ sets the pace a little slower, but the funk goes on. The track incorporates 80’s style samples with some excellent synth and chord work. Perfect for a warm up session.

Starting on the b-side Harry takes it up a notch with ‘Nemoto’, which will be a definite stomper for the dance floor. It takes you on a 9 minute journey of rolling bumpy basslines, screaming distortion leads and hypnotising synth work. 
Finally, to ease things off, STS-136 (Final Call) comes in at a slow 88 bpm pace as a perfect closure to the EP. Dreamy pads, piano licks and a calming marimba melody combined with a beat which feels like a warm blanket will make you wander off for a moment..

When it comes to releasing Lo-Fi house grooves, there are few labels at the moment that are doing it better than Shall Not Fade. In fact, only a couple weeks ago, we were writing about their superb release of Trudge’s “Negative Spaces” on their sister imprint Lost Palms. This is precisely why we find SNF's upcoming release of Italian producer Nicholas so exciting! It appears that the label is branching out of its comfort zone, deciding to come out with a record that is discernibly different from the rest of their discography.

For those that are fans of Nicholas, you are aware that jazz plays an integral role in the music he comes out with. His mini-LP on Seb Wildblood’s Church titled Lonnie’s Reprise is a perfect example of how the house producer has taken his career into a whole new direction; choosing to produce music that feels more at home near a fireplace than a late night on the dancefloor. This is precisely the sort of mood Nicholas is going for in his latest, four-track EP “Sound of Earth,” in which he orchestrates the jazziest of affairs with the help of recent collaborator and Detroit vocalist Nikki-O (aka Sky Covington).

The lead track Ancient Future does a fantastic job of setting the tone for the rest of the piece. Isolated, yet vibrant drum notes mark its beginning, but gradually work in a billowing assortment of keys, high-hats, snares, and horns that become more and more captivating as the song builds and builds. Then, after reaching a climax at the 5-minute mark with a lively duet of trumpets, Ancient Future disassembles itself and leaves in a similar fashion it arrived: with the play of drums. However, they certainly sound more somber the second time around; giving the song an almost fleeting, ephemeral quality.

If Ancient Future tickles your fancy, do yourself a favor and grab a copy of “Sound of Earth” by clicking this link right here! Jazz-heads, you're in for quite the treat!

Sun Palace - Rude Movements

First time this is available digitally, free download for a limited time only, folks! 

The first time I heard Sivuca's amazing version of "Ain't No Sunshine" was around '89; acid house was all the rage and, quite frankly, pissing me off a little bit, so we decided to organise a rave of our own. One where you could hear all sorts of sounds. Case in point, the DJ dropped the Sivuca bomb at about six in the morning, the sweat was crawling up the walls and people started peeling off their shirts. It just blew everyone's minds. Then the police turned up. Luckily though, it was just some coppers coming off the night-shift and wanting a beer so we let them in and carried on. 

But I never forgot that moment and recently I decided that I really wanted to do a tribute to that great man and his band, of which this was the result.   

This is track A1 of a 12" vinyl-only release out on Kat Records. 
Mastering by Ebony Cuts.

Simon Harrison, Basic Soul Radio [UK] - Damn these mixes are fantastic - my fave so far is Ain't No sunshine which will feature on next week's show!!

Leftside Wobble [UK] - Stella release. From a personal perspective it's great to see KAT back to it's roots of quirky leftfield jazz-dance numbers and underground soulful funk. Real quality across all three cuts.

Andy Wilson, Sonica Radio [Ibiza] - I wondered what happened to Casbah 73, I used to play his Lovemonk LP a lot. Sivuca is an old favourite and the Manfredo Fest track is amazing, love it. Played it on my show this week, another quality selection, thanks!

Richard Rogers / Black Booby [UK] - Redd Hott - Big Fat Bottom (Casbah 73 Edit) - Big slapping arse style edit that fits quite nicely into the BB sound, My ass is shaking all over the place just thinking about it!

Bobby Beige, Garden Festival Resident [Croatia] - Casbah 73 edits show us some seriously good cut up Latin funk bombs.
