@the_large

When The Large first contacted Mixpak asking if she could contribute to their blog, who’d have known that years later she’d become label manager and have a hand in Popcaan’s Where We Come From, one of the best records of 2014. Once one-third of the Style & Swagger radio show (which, after a brief stint on Reel Rebels Radio, settled in on the NTS schedule), The Large is also behind the Shimmy Shimmy blog and its sister zine, No Ice Cream Sound, which ran four issues deep. Her flair for connecting the dots between club music from disparate regions shines through on her Truancy Volume, which seamlessly blends tracks from Jamaica, Latin America, Angola, New Jersey and beyond. This is perhaps testament to how at home she is in in the diverse musical hubs of London and, more recently, New York City. A perfect companion piece to last year’s brilliant “2 On Mix“, The Large’s Truancy Volume brings the heat in more ways than one. This enduringly warm mix will incubate you from the stubborn vestiges of winter and act as a lasting soundtrack to your springtime.

Truancy Volume 114: The Large

There's no need to spend many words introducing K-Paul, who has been around for decades as part of Lexy & K-Paul or solo and on labels such as Low Spirit, Four Music, BAR25, Katermukke and his own Musicismusic. Precisely because things don't seem to be quite as loud and whirlwind around him anymore, we are all the more delighted about this new EP on Broque. Created some time ago in a small fishing village on La Palma, No You has matured like a fine wine that is finally ready to be enjoyed in its full flavor. Carried by Tua's vocals, a melancholic mood and a wonderfully warm and deep production, this little gem manages to exude relaxed Balearic (or rather Canarian) vibes and main floor-compatible hit potential at the same time. Gabriel Ananda's slightly more percussive remix hits you with an even more functional approach to the theme, while Georg Neufeld's Lido Dub takes its time over more than 11 minutes and finds its peaktime appeal through the back door with a lot of dubby deepness. db-Maui puts the icing on the cake by transforming No You into a wonderfully atmospheric and timeless dancefloor track with eclectic warm chords, twinkling acid lines and lots of atmosphere, which makes you want to dance into the Canarian sunrise.

Wriggly Scott's tribute mix to Giorgio Moroder: http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/16198/1/giorgio-moroder-djs-in-new-york

From Mobb Deep and J Dilla, to El-P, DOOM and DJ Shadow, Giorgio Moroder's soundtracks and pop productions have been spliced, diced, referenced and remixed by the best beatmakers of the last 20 years. To celebrate our Daft Punk vs Giorgio Moroder cover feature, we asked Another Music head honcho Wriggly Scott to dig deep into the crates for a career spanning overview of the Italo rhythm master's discography and some of the classic tracks that sampled him. Covering his Scarface gangsta rap credentials and Teutonic electronic experiments to the Donna Summer pop smashes that inspired two certain robots, this hour long mix will take you deep into the mind of a Moog loving musical visionary. Mr Moroder, the dancefloor is yours... 

The June issue of Dazed & Confused featuring a head to head interview between Daft Punk + Giorgio Moroder is out this Wednesday. http://www.dazeddigital.com/music
