Pontchartrain - Get Over You (Whiskey Disco 29)

Did somebody say AOTN 12". For our first large format singe we bring you the unreleased full length version of the original Symbol 8 classic "I thought you wanted to dance". The track was featured on American Band Stand in the late 70's but failed to make it for the usual reasons (luck, management and distribution) but that is no marker of quality, these tracks are disco and modern soul royalty . Charlie Adams versatile vocal flipping into falsetto with ease while the band holds the solid groove is a special thing. On the flip-side is later and very different version of "I thought you wanted to dance plus a personal favourite and long time spin of my own "call me". Essential as always.

One of my all time favourite tracks, gently cut, stretched, rearranged, delayed, filtered, stereo widened and extended.

New York based D.C. LaRue has been recording and performing since 1974 but it was his track “Cathedrals” in ’76 that really got him noticed amongst the heavy weight disco releases of the time.  The double A-side 12" single of "Cathedrals" was one of the earliest commercially available 12" singles and went on to hit number 1 on the Billboard Dance Music Club and Disco Single charts.

Subsequent singles “Overture” and “Indiscreet” both topped out at number 2 on the Billboard Dance Music Club charts and “Indiscreet” became an influential track in the hip hop sampling world.

Fast forward to the present day and armed with digital transfers of the original master tapes, Z Records has commissioned remixes of these classic tracks plus “Let Them Dance” and “Do You Want The Real Thing”.

Released over two limited edition picture sleeve 12’s pressed exclusively for Record Store Day 2018, the remixes come from Idjut Boys, Ron Basejam, Dr Packer, Folamour, JKriv and Joey Negro.

D.C. LaRue – Cathedrals (Joey Negro Extended Disco Mix)

Hard-hitting latin boogaloo super-group Grupo Magnético formed from
backgrounds in funk, hip-hop, punk and soul, united by a love of Eddie Palmieri,
Tito Puente, Ray Barretto, Fania and classic New York salsa. Working with
legendary musicians from Cuba, Venezuela and America (who had played and
recorded with many of the names who'd originally inspired the group), the circle
was complete as the album was mixed in New York by Grammy winning latin
producer Aaron Levinson.

Downtown Edinburgh, Scotland. In a hot and sweaty basement bar below a
Chinese restaurant, an unlikely band of musicians are playing hard-hitting salsa
to an ecstatic crowd.

Grupo Magnético came together from backgrounds of funk, hip-hop, punk and
soul, bonding over a shared obsession with New York salsa. Learning classic
tunes from the masters - Eddie Palmieri, Tito Puente, Fania Allstars, Ray
Barretto, Típica 73 and any other great salsa records they could get their ears on
- they finally took to that basement stage in Henry's Cellar Bar
one Thursday night to pay homage to their heroes, and continued to do so in
what became a ten year residency. During this time the band played under
various lineups and names including Rumba Caliente and Los Cometas before
finally settling on Grupo Magnético. As the band's reputation grew they were
fortunate to work with a rich collection of singers including Ricardo Fernandez
Pompa from Cuba, Lino Rocha from Venezuela and musicians such as New York

trombonist Joe De Jesus, who had played and recorded with many of the
legendary names that had inspired them.

Over time the group, led by Toby "El León" Shippey, developed their own set and
sound. Positivo is a record of these tunes and of those Thursday nights. The
tunes were cut live as a band in three sessions using downtime in a local studio;
tracks from the first session were met with such a positive reaction from New
York and Colombia the band were encouraged to make a full album. These three
sessions were then mixed in New York by Grammy award winning producer
Aaron Levinson.

We hope you enjoy Positivo, the sound of Grupo Magnético.
