Superbreak Radio Show Episode 041

Welcoming our latest guests to the Leisure Club Mixtape series, our long-time favourite funk-folks Video Age from the land of po-boys, jazz clubs and the melting pot of cultures, New Orleans.

Playing music together for the last decade and longtime friends from their early years coming up in the DIY scene, Ross Farbe (vocals/guitar) and Ray Micarelli (drums) began the project with their debut album in 2016 and have been crafting their signature early 80's synth-pop sound with experimentation and collaboration playing an important role in their magic-making recording process. 

Since catching our attention with their second full-length album Pop Therapy back in 2018, it's safe to say we're delighted to have them join us for a quick mixtape after regular inclusions in our Poolside Etiquette playlist over the years. 

We caught up with the dynamic duo on the blog to chat about life, being back on the road and emerging bands to keep an eye on. Stream the mixtape via our SoundCloud and peep the full interview below. 

Thanks for being Cools.

DANCE'o'DROME S2 #35 - GUEST: AHU

Buy the song here: koramusique.bandcamp.com/track/people-united

This track is shared in solidarity with the Freedom Flotilla, uniting over 40 countries as they set sail today to peacefully deliver humanitarian aid to the people of Palestine.

“The people, united, will never be defeated.”

الشعب المتحد لا يهزم

I recorded these chants during a peaceful protest for Palestine in Montréal last year. Back in the studio, carried by the charged collective energy of that moment, this piece came to life.

Today feels like the right moment to release it—hoping it resonates with you, whether in your heart or in your sets—as a contribution to the rising wave of awareness and support for Palestinian liberation.

The ongoing genocide has reached unbearable proportions: forced famine, displacement, and the attempt to erase an entire people. While governments and powers of darkness try to convince us that we are powerless, the Freedom Flotilla reminds us of our capacity to unite for collective change.

We are the people. We are the change—today and tomorrow.

💿 All proceeds from this track go directly to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (freedomflotilla.org).

Beyond the humanitarian mission, their voyage is a living symbol: that we can come together across borders to help those in need, and demand justice, accountability, and an end to systemic racism, imperialism, and colonization.

Free Gaza. Free Palestine. ✊

Love will win, always.

Thank you for listening and supporting this cause.

— Mikael

Cools Records is a lifestyle fuelled by a drug we call music. 

The last three years has seen us been inspired by an array of artists, genres and sounds as we’ve penned the Barney Cools narrative. From perching ourselves poolside to the melodies of Sticky Fingers and Fat Freddy’s Drop to closing some of our wildest nights with vintage electronic anthems from Armand Van Helden and Fatboy Slim, it’s safe to safe we’ve developed quite an appetite for music that makes us feel fulfilled.

Whilst genres such as indie-rock and relaxed reggae undeniably pack an abundance of heat, there’s truly nothing that intoxicates us more than the sound of the disco beat. Hence why we’ve secured the services of none other than the German master of funky disco and house, Purple Disco Machine, to do the honours of introducing undoubtedly our friskiest mixtape series to date.

Fresh from the release of his debut album Soulmatic, expect nothing less than a revolving platter of pleasure-inducing records from one of Nu Disco’s most in-form producers and provider of good times. It’s about time we rekindled for a dance – plug in and get toe-tapping.

Feast your eyes on our brand new collection Cools Records online now.

By 1985 (My Senior year in High School) I was a huge Pat Metheny fan as well as a David Bowie fan. But in my wildest imagination I would have never had those two making a song together, but they did and boy was it a smash. I always wanted to play this tune for a very musically savvy dance floor one day, so I put my "4am" touch on this incredible classic. (Enjoy)

Ibiza Nu-Disco 1:36:46 long DJ set (FREE Download)

"Had a blast recording this guest mix. With summer in full swing, I leaned heavily on the exotic disco and afro house vibes. My mix includes some really fun edits from COEO via my favorite Brooklyn-based disco imprint, Razor-N-Tape, supports some delightful new records from my friends at Whiskey Disco and the Colombian compadres Vagabundo Club Social, and per usual, includes some extra special gems (aka those deep cuts). Anyways, throw some shades on, lean back and bump this in the whip or on the beach, and enjoy the funky ride.”

“I miss everything about touring... aside from the super early lobby calls.

Most of all I miss the atmosphere in the middle of a set. Once everyone's locked in to the mosh and you're feeling comfortable on stage there's a back and forth of energy and excitement that builds and climaxes multiple times throughout the night - there's nothing that can replace that adrenaline rush.

I feel like for most us, this forced reset has been the biggest silver lining which has made us both discover new passions as well as rediscover old passions.”

Whether you're staying home or just staying sanitary... we're keeping the tunes flowing with a fresh addition to our Cabin Fever Mixtape series. As a proud supporter of Support Act, this series is our platform to connect with our favourite artists and raise awareness for the artists, crew and music workers affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. 

With states rolling back limits and schooners beginning to flow, we couldn't pick a better time to be joined by school of Barney Cools alumni and Sydney based drummer and producer Commandeur for a punchy poolside mix to set the tone as we slowly but surely emerge from our isolation hibernation. 

We'd describe Tim as probably our most humble mate in the music biz. With 14 years at the forefront of the global music scene since launching his career in Aria-award winning band Operator Please (yep, that song about ping pong), Tim has performed alongside the likes of PNAU, Tkay Maidza, Dua Lipa and consequently done a few hot laps around the festival circuit.

Now taking the solo route, Commandeur has been getting busy throughout isolation in the studio and most recently released his brand new tune 'Feel The Love' featuring KLP, streaming now wherever you reel your tunas.

Cools is calling upon our all our music loving mates across the globe to support the industry appeal where possible. With your help, we'll be able to support our music workers through this difficult period and help them be in a position to bounce back louder and throw a post-pandemic party for the ages. You can do your bit by donating directly to the Support Act COVID19 Emergency Appeal below.
