We celebrate our 15th TSTD EDITS volume with a BANG! Australian Dave Mathmos, the master of smooth, soulful Disco Edits returns with a new E.P.. The producer delivers a limited 7!!! track E.P., full of new, unreleased sophisticated club-diamonds. From Slow Jams to Soul-Dancefloor gold! Everything that will warm your heart and soul.
It is a return, as Dave Mathmos also was the artist of the first real TSTD EDITS EP, the now legendary and completely sold out "Your Love (Contemporary Soul Mix By Dave Mathmos)". The E.P. sold out in a minute as a vinyl and up until today it is the most successful digital release we ever did, with several million plays on the spotifyyoutubeapples.... Well done, Dave!

Tug Boat Edits 6 - "Blues" - Weedyman

De succesvolle Amerikaanse disco-, soul- en funkgroep Shalamar ontstond in eerste instantie uit twee achtergronddansers van het Amerikaanse soul-TV-programma "Soultrain". Vanaf de jaren ’80 behaalden ze enorme successen met ‘Second Time Around’, ‘Night To Remember’ en ‘I Can Make You Feel Good’. Jody Watley, één van de oprichters en fashionista pur-sang, heeft na het verlaten van de groep als solo artiest bewezen een enorm hitkanon te zijn – denk maar aan de nummers ‘Looking For A New Love’ en de kraker ‘Friends’. Nu staan ze eenmalig samen op het podium! Bereid je voor op een onvergetelijke soulvolle en funky dansavond.

SHALAMAR Feat. JODY WATLEY MIX - Zondag 28 Juni 2015 - Melkweg - Amsterdam - Mixed by Groove Inc.

This one was an unexpected treat. Two of our favourite contemporary musicians, Finn Rees & Sholto coming together and collaborating on a double dose of celestial, cinematic alchemy.

At Mr Bongo we are massive admirers of drummer, musician, and producer Sholto (Oscar Robertson). His two albums on Funk Night Records and DeepMatter Records, had both been highlights of their respective years. We’d gotten to know Oscar and sent him a few records. Included in the package was Australian pianist-composer Finn Rees’ debut album, Dawn Is A Melody, which was one of our favourite releases on Mr Bongo in 2024.

In Oscar's words 'For me it was a standout modern jazz record - encapsulating a spiritual / hazy dreamy soundscape which hugely resonated with me. Glissando keys and harp with lush melodies, I was instantly intrigued.”  

The pair started following each other online and as luck would have it, Finn was staying in London for the summer season, so they arranged to meet. The pair instantly clicked and said it felt like they'd known each other for years. After 40 minutes of chatting, they started to jam. 

'Love In Memory' and 'Bluebell' were recorded over two days - a track a day in Oscar's SFJ studios. Laid down on mostly analogue equipment, the pair utilised Wurlitzer’s, mellotrons, and ribbon mics through Oscar’s ‘70s Studer desk. Composed and crafted without any real intentions, other than a shared appreciation for the same style of music and approach, the tracks started to take shape. The results were as lush, nostalgic and textured as you’d expect from these two brilliant musicians, with a classical feel inspired by artists such as Piero Piccioni, Piero Umiliani, and Henry Mancini. 

For the beautiful string arrangements, the pair recruited the talents of Sholto's long-time friend and collaborator Clementine Brown (Penguin Cafe Orchestra) and Matthew Hayes of 30/70, Allysha Joy, Xpress Point, Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange fame, was brought in to play bass on 'Bluebell'.

So here we have it, a chance collaborative project built on two musicians' mutual respect for each other's outputs. The result is truly breathtaking.
