A. Mushrooms Project - Dubby Bolas (Earthboogie Remix)
AA. Earthboogie - Route Ten To Interzone (Mushrooms Project Rework)

The Mushrooms Project are well known for their sleazy mid-tempo laid-back percussive style, a sound that immediately resonated with rising stars and newly signed label mates Earthboogie. 

Specifically it was ‘Dubby Bolas’ from the Italian duo’s 2016 album ‘Rivea Corymbosa’ album that really excited Earthboogie and equally, the Mushrooms were fans of the afro disco sound the Londoners displayed on their debut track ‘Route Ten To Interzone’.

The mutual appreciation led to this remix project and now, released exclusively for Record Store Day 2018, their complementary productions styles collide with great effect.

This is the sixth remix single release from Timewarp inc's fourth studio LP album "Theory of Revolution". And this time is brought to you by our good fellow friend Dj, remixer and producer based in Minsk / Belarus mr Lavr Berzhanin a.k.a Dj Laurel.

Dj Laurel here provides a soulful and elegant remix with a fresh mix over the original "I'll Be Ok" song that features those great vocals and lyrics from Georges Perin. The remixer kept most of the original song stems almost intact but he provides a different constant dance-floor groove with electronic baseline and synths and an additional tropical house style fat beat. This can be called a re-edit and a re-mix sitting together in a great sweet pot. An instrumental version of the remixed song is included in the release.

Audiophile Analog Mastering: Angelos Timewarp Stoumpos at Timewarp Mastering

Cover Design: Timewarp

The original songs are included on Timewarp inc's album "Theory of Revolution", released in a special limited edition (250 copies) double 12" gatefold vinyl format! The vinyl is now available at our Website & Bandcamp store and at our Discogs page.

Junodownload Review::
"'I'll Be OK' is the latest aural treat from Timewarp Inc's Theory of Revolution album to get given the remix treatment. In its original album mix form (not included here, sadly), the song is a skanking slab of hazy reggae-soul featuring fine lead vocals from George Perin. This time round, Belarussian producer (and sometime Chopshop artist) DJ Laurel has re-imagined it as a slow-motion slab of attractive nu-disco soul rich in bubbly synthesizer sounds, punchy horns, razor-sharp guitar licks, undulating synth-bass and snappy machine drums. We'd argue that it's best enjoyed in its full vocal mix form (track one), where Laurel gets the most out of Perin's superbly soulful and surprisingly weary singing, though the accompanying instrumental take is also rather good."

MIMS is excited to premiere a remix from our very own resident show host, DJ Tahira from Sao Paulo, Brazil. Tahira puts a rootsier spin on The Fontanas hot take on “Capoeira Mata Um”, featuring Former Banda Black Rio vocalist Aleh Ferreira. Released this Friday via London’s tropical party makers, Movimientos. 

The Fontanas make an explosive return on this fresh rework of the Brazilian classic ‘Capoeira Mata Um’ originally made popular by Jackson de Pandeiro. Producer and bandleader Sam Fontanas gives fresh life to the track, transforming a 1950s Brazilian folk classic into a dance floor banger for modern times. ‘The idea behind the record was to introduce the song to a new audience’ - Bringing with it an injection of electronic fusion, tropical funk, as well as a nod to traditional forro. Former Banda Black Rio vocalist and Samba Soul legend in his own right Aleh (Ferreira) guests on the vocals, referencing the song’s Afro-Brazilian heritage, and fusing the traditional with the modern. 

Tahira says, "“I decided to make it faster.. I'm bringing a blend of forro with a bit of Ijexa. Catia de França used to do this in late 70s. I love the horns .. I've changed them a bit to give the song more of a Latin feel. And I added some keyboards into the track from the excellent musician Fernando TrZ from Liniker and Lavoura".
 
The EP also features another brand new revisioning of a Brazilian classic “Locuras de Uma Paixão” featuring vocals from Sambista Laurie Blundell & Let Drum Beat. And to complete the package there’s 3 exemplary uptempo dancefloor remixes including and rootsier re-wiring from Sao Paulo’s DJ Tahira. Closer to home via London, Tom Excell (Nubiyan Twist, Onipa) brings the fire with his blitzed out Jazz x remix. Completing the stellar line up is Reprezent FM’s Blue Canariñho with his nu wave favela flip mix.

Exclusive Premiere: The Fontanas "Capoeira Mata Um" (Tahira Remix) (Movimientos Records)

"Matasuna Records" is delighted to make a musical detour to Mexico for the first time with its new release. The 7inch contains two rare Latinfunk & -Soul songs of Mexican band "Apache". The songs "Liberate" and "Hombre" were released in 1975 & 1976 and are now available on vinyl again for the first time ever. This time Matasuna companion "Voodoocuts" is back again to contribute a formidable rework of "Hombre".

Members of the band "La Fórmula ER77" formed "Apache" in the early 70s in Torreón, Mexico. The 8-piece band performed on many stages, but became known to a larger audience through an appearance on the popular Mexican TV show "Siempre en Domingo". Another success was their song "Kung Fu Chino", which was popular throughout Latin America.

In 1976, their first LP "Del Bumpin Al Hustle" was released, which contains, with one exception, only cover versions of international hits from that time. Although the originals were popular music, Apache adopted them with their own funky attitude.

At the end of the decade, the original group disbanded. Two members joined with other musicians in the early 80s to pursue a different musical direction under the new band name "Tropicalisimo Apache", which is still active today.

"Liberate" is a song composed by "Rafaél Gonzáles, who was also responsible for the production of the LP. The song is the only original composition on the album and differs stylistically from the other songs not only because of that: Liberate is a heavy Latin funk joint par excellence that leaves you wanting more!

On the flip side, you won't be disappointed: "Hombre" is another great song composed and arranged by the band's trumpet player, "Ernesto Haros". "Voodoocuts" Rework strips down the original to its instrumental base to skillfully build a new arrangement, which is enriched by additional samples, a bunch of beats and breaks and various effects. Without a doubt another tropical dancefloor treat!
