BIRKE 38

Dj Assassin - Face In The Crowd - Chris Simmonds Intellidred Mix

The Artist Concurrently Known As Jackmate has been already been indoctrinated into our cult since he signed onto he Pampa bookings roster awhile back. As SoulPhiction he is also co-founder of Philpot, the Stuttgart-based label, home to the majority of his releases over the past 10+ years. Anyway, we get the privilege of stamping the Turkey logo on SoulPhiction's first proper release of 2013, following his remixes for Murat Tepeli and Detroit Swindle. 'When Radio Was Boss' is a tribute to those magical electromagnetic waves that ruled yesteryear. With that prototypical Pampa percussion-rattling and clanking its way into the room-and a warm, round bassline bounce combined with some symphonic froth in the atmosphere, this track definitely demands airplay. On the dancefloor, at least! (And right in the middle of the track, catch the pleasantly jarring shout-out from WBAU, the call sign of the defunct New York radio station that counted members of Public Enemy and hosts of Yo! MTV Raps amongst its staff.) On the flip, the bpm gets cranked down just a bit for 'Maybachswagger"-If the A-side is a tribute to radio, the B has roller-skating on its mind. Starting out spooky with a sampled voice cooing over a slightly detuned bassline, the surprise comes in the final third, when a kawaii disco vibe drops in, seducing you onto the rink for a few laid-back laps.

Soulphiction - A When Radio Was Boss (PAMPA019)

Kinda like chilled out trap music for a rainy day or for low down bass vibes in the club

Akabu feat. Alex Mills "Everybody Wants Something" was an enormous tune for many in 2013 and is still getting played by big name dj's in bustling nightclubs around the world.

Now we give you some off the chain/on point/un-believable remixes from Kolombo, Rhemi & Giom.

Live in Me

Hook: I been searching for
and one day I will find you
and you will live in me
U been searching for
and one day you will find me
and you shall live in me

Verse 1: 
I feel your undertones within my skin, 
vibrations play (like roadmaps) where to begin, 
this ghostly age of loneliness will fade, 
if the quest be lit with desires flame, 
rose pedals on the trail ,your scent crosses me in detail,
its evident the grace in you, flowing down stream the waves are due

pre hook:
SAVE THIS DANCE GIRL
JUST THIS ONE TIME
KISS ME ONE TIME
ONE TIME ONE TIME

Hook: I been searching for
and one day I will find you
and you will live in me
U been searching for
and one day you will find me
and you shall live in me

Pre Hook 2:
baby please don’t go no where
one day I'll be there
no need to be scared
let loose of your fear
deep down yes I care
u can feel it in my stare
one day I'll be there

Verse2:
I trust in the stars that shade us,
 I lust in the sense of your touch, I long for the night's remembrance, 
your lips spoke the words of our love, you search for the light of affection, 
you sing the songs of our connection,
 I've found the Magic in your eyes, your hand so perfect in mine


Hook: I been searching for
and one day I will find you
and you will live in me
U been searching for
and one day you will find me
and you shall live in me

Dropping back in July 2013 Tim Green’s Get Physical release “Halftone / Midnight Roller” was a huge success, so much so that is is being re-released again on Get Physical, but this time as a three track remix compilation, “Halftone / Midnight Roller Remixed” EP. The new EP boasts three inventive and original reworks of Tim’s original tracks “Halftone” and “Midnight Roller”. 

Avatism remix of “Halftone” is the first up on the EP and sets the bar high for the rest of the release with heavy, dark and moody elements running through. It lays a nice contrast to the effortlessly smooth second remix of “Halftone” from Berlin based artist Atelier Francesco and the EP shows no signs of stopping on the third and final remix on the release, “Midnight Roller” which comes from the super talented Nicson who has just had a successful release on Greens own label Disc Over Music called “Cannonball”. 

You can head over and listen to an exclusive track premiere of Atelier Francesco’s “Halftone” remix from the EP at i-D Magazine now. Soothe your mid-week pains with the uplifting elegant groove that this track offers.  

All three reworks offer something different to Tim’s original tracks and show a real musical relationship between dance floor grooves and originality.

The fifth release on ZR back in 1991, "Do What You Feel" was the track that really put Dave Lee on the map. The song was one of the anthems of the era and became a Top 40 pop hit when later signed to Virgin/10. 

Unlike many classic dance tracks its never been remixed but now we are releasing 3 new updates. The JN Revival Mix keeps much of the original music but beefs up the drums and bass to make for super fat sounding update. Supernova take the track to a stripped back techy direction for bigger rooms. Whilst Steve Mill's remix is a touch deeper but retaining the magic of the original.


DJ Reactions:

Shur-i-kan - Cool mixes!
Martin Ikin - Great to have new mixes of this classic
Luke Howard (HMD) - Stellar job on the remixes
StoneBridge - Oh yes, the memories - awesome update!
Reel People - Dave's Mix for me
Audiowhores - Supernova are on fire at the moment, feeling this one
The Reflex - It's '91 all over again! Revival mix for me
CJ Mackintosh - Love the Revival mix... Just like old times
Faze Action - Very nice indeed. I'm liking the JN Revival mix best
Golf Clap - Wow that is really good. Love this JN Revival Mix
Hed Kandi - Ace!
Kiko Navarro - Steve Mill Remix has the original vibes with a good updated touch
Julius Papp - One of my fave’s from the early 90's house music era
DJ Meme -  A Wowzer !!
Paul Trouble Anderson - Like it
Robert Owens - Nice mix
ATFC - Cool thanks
Graeme Park - Wonderful wonderful, wonderful
Groove Assassin - Superb remix pack of a classic anthem!
DJ Booker T - Wicked vibes will support

As the sun-drenched months descend upon us, Joey Negro &amp; The Sunburst Band unleash their highly anticipated 4th studio album titled ‘The Secret Life Of Us’ on Z Records. Packed with Sunburst signature sounds - a lush cross pollinating hot soul, jazz, funk, electro-boogie and disco dazzlers, ‘The Secret Life Of Us’ is their most exciting adventure into modern soulful music yet! Who could resist the catchy Chic style disco of the title track with its story of an illicit affair or the witty, “this woman wears the trousers”, 2 step boogie 'My Way'.

 

Things get jazzier on the moody electro 'Jazz The DMX' with Blue Note piano and dubby weirdness, while the rolling down tempo pimp groove of 'Opus de Soul' has beautiful lush live strings that even Barry White might be proud of. Even echoes of the Doobie Brothers resonate through 'Caught In The Moment'. The album also features their glimmering disco-tinged outing, 'In The Thick Of It’, which hit the Traxsource No.1 spot in just 4 days of release! What is common throughout ‘The Secret Life Of Us’ is the attention to detail and labour of love that's gone into crafting this wonderful collection of fantastic songs, all performed by a truly heavyweight collective of talent!

"Making a Sunburst Band album can be bit of a slog, be it a mainly pleasant slog. All those days and nights spent sweating heavily over the mixing desk take their toll on even the best-made pair of disco underpants ;-). As cheesy as it may sound I'm doing this because I love it and I want to put the musicality and craftsmanship from the music I grew up with into The Sunburst Band" - Joey Negro

‘The Secret Life Of Us’ features band members who regularly play live around the world headed by singers Pete Simpson and Donna Gardier. The nucleus of Tony Remy (guitar), Julian Crampton (bass) and Frank Tontoh (drums) are also joined by a selection of vocal stars from the soulful scene including Angela Johnson, Noelle Scaggs, Darien and Vivienne McKone. Combine this standard of musicianship with strong songs and Dave's sharp arrangements and you've got a potent brew both in the studio and on the live stage. Joey co-wrote most of the songs with Diane Charlemagne, who many will know from Goldie's ‘Inner City Life’. “Diane is super talented and writes with wit and intelligence”, says Joey. Diane also performs vocals on ‘My Way’, 'Definition of Love' and the album title track with Donna Gardier. 

“Normally I start writing a song with keys and vocals, until I'm totally happy with the melodic structure and lyrics. Once I'm sure it's up to scratch I get the band in and always make sure I record a performance - that's crucial. I want the playing to intensify and go somewhere but without loosing the groove" - Joey Negro
