Premiere: Kelis 'Jerk Ribs' (Will Saul & Komon Remix)

Wonder-FULL is one of the longest running annual tribute parties in NYC and the world at large. When people first hear of an entire night dedicated to the music of Stevie Wonder it's generally an unimaginable thought, but it works. You simply have to be there to understand it.  It doesn't matter how many times Stevie makes an appearance or phone call, it's always a brand new experience… Truly exciting and a total blessing from one of the greatest musical treasures of this life. Here's a clip of the phone call Stevie made during the jam in NY on 5/31/06 at 1am in the morning. If you were there you knew  how magical this felt.

Prequel - Searching

Over the past 6 years WOLF Music have earned their stripes as stalwart purveyors of refined House and Disco. Now, in the follow up to Medlar and Greymatter’s debut LPs and EPs from the likes of Ishmael, Ossie and Casino Times they ready their 3rd LP from Dutchman Frits Wentink.

Now residing in Amsterdam, Frits has a glowing back catalogue of soulful, Lo Fi club material that’s touched Heist Recordings as well as WOLF in the form of his ‘Mouse’ and ‘Goose’ EPs. With an experimental approach to hardware and instrumentation, his work blooms naturally through jams and improv and in this - his debut LP: ‘Rarely Pure, Never Simple’ we see a development in this experimentation to enlivening effect.

Working with a meld of grubby samples, chunky percussion and the frequent vocal accompaniment of Utrecht based Loes Jongerling, Rarely Pure Never Simple is a journey through Frits’ influences forged into a cohesive pack of grooves and interludes tinged with a certain charming nostalgia.

Gio Vandal emotional, inspiring music was never unnoticed for us. Since his debut EP summer 2024, every single release has proved the evolution on his sound and skillset, without losing his essence.

In this case, the Brazilian producer presents a 2-track EP called 'Combinations' - consisting on two vocal Deep House tracks driven by warm basslines and fragile, beautiful melodies.  Hope you like it as much as we do!

It’s difficult to describe the feeling when you know you’ve heard something that eclipses the mighty Mr Bird & Greg Blackman’s Ramrock Blue modern soul 12” classic ‘Over Again’ featuring the now legendary Tom Moulton remix. But many of you are going to experience that feeling and your feedback is going to reflect that moment when that single musical droplet of universal joyful harmony hits your hippocampus and you dissolve with happiness. 

There are three versions of ‘Where Did The Party Go’ -  on the A side is the funky Lo-Fi Classics original, taken from the album of the same name, produced & co-written by Steven Bird and delivered with gritty, Muscle Shoals confidence by Greg Blackman.  This version garnered mass plaudits from the soul cognoscenti – both DJs and radio presenters alike - on its first outing on the BBE label in July 2014.  Flipping the vinyl over, Ashley Beedle, Jo Wallace and Darren Morris deliver the two North Street remixes; the BPM has been dropped and as the 90’s RnB/steppers vibe kicks in, Mr Morris’s keyboards underpin the majesty of Greg Blackman’s vocal delivery – utterly sublime. No wonder Mi-Soul are already championing the ‘North Street’ Remix as their Record of The Week w/c March 13th 2017.  On the final version, Greg’s vocals are laid bare on The ‘Stripped Back’ remix - your soul will soar and you’ll remember the moment for a long time – savour it.
