Dave Lee’s cover of Rainbow Brown’s “Till You Surrender” was originally released on ZR in the mid 90s and it featured one of Taka Boom’s strongest vocal performances. 

The song has been ear marked for re-release for some time and now we give you a stonking new disco house re-work from DJ Fudge. 

Written By Patrick Adams (Inner Life, Musique and many other disco classics) “Till You Surrender” is super anthemic and combined with Fudge’s classy but energetic string heavy mix it’s a sure-fire dancefloor winner that's perfect for the current disco revival.

DJ Reactions:

Dr Packer - This one will be in my sets for a long time !!!!! Top work all around
The Reflex - Killer, such a great vocal from Taka Boom
Opolopo - Smokin' disco stomper!

Prospect Park - Till You Surrender (DJ Fudge Disco Mix)

if you follow me on Facebook you'll know I regularly post youtube links to what i consider interesting new and old music. I have always loved talking about tunes and try to share what i know re background info about the act or how I came across the song or my copy of the record. I thought it would be cool idea to put together a mix of some of the funk, disco and soul songs i posted on my FB wall in 2017. I didn't double check but i think most of these were posted last year, not that it matters.  There's some killer tunes in this mix, some are things i've loved since they came out in the early 80s whilst others i only discovered in the last 6 months. I hope you find something you like.

Love To The Limit (Shur-i-kan Club Mix)
Love To The Limit (Shur-i-kan Request Dub)
Love To The Limit (Shur-i-kan Zanzibar Dub)

Bridget Grace's "Love To The Limit" was originally released on Mad Mike's short-lived Happy Records in 1992. 

It is one of Dave Lee's favourite records of the era so a couple of years ago he contacted Bridgett to re-record the vocals and she has done a great job of retaining the magic of the original. 

Remixer Shur-i-Kan has also excelled himself keeping the essence of what was brilliant about the original but bringing it bang up to date with a punchy old school house sound. If you remember the original or not, it's a special song.

The original version of 'Little Bit' features Gabe Gonzalez - drums (P-funk, Bernie Worrell), Kern Brantley - bass, (Lady Gaga, Mary J Blige), Dominie Deporres - guitar (Theo Parrish).

Taking a break from their extensive touring schedule, the collective have spent time in the studio creating a hybrid jazz-funk album titled ‘A Cosmic Jazz Funk Adventure’.

These are the first remixes from the album and Sean McCabe works the original live elements and Martez’s vocals into his trademark deep and soulful house sound. Included here is Sean’s vocal mix, a Dub and a bonus Moody Remix.

RWL Sleeve Notes:

Patrice Rushen – Never Gonna Give You Up (Joey Negro Re-Grooved Mix)
I procured the multi for this killer dance cut from Patrice’s “Posh” album over 5 years ago and completed the remix a while back but we couldn’t clear it for RWL 2 due to the rights to her music being in limbo while it was sold by Warner Brothers to German indie !K7. This is one of the more radical remixes on the album. In all other cases I base the new version around the original music, sometimes adding extra riffs or replaying bass or guitar. I tried that approach on “Never…” but it just wasn’t happening. I went back to it a few times but I didn’t seem to be able to come up with anything particularly interesting so I decided to go a different direction and attempt to change the music next time I had Kaidi Tatham in the studio playing keys. He did a great job with a groove that is a little like her classic “Number One” and though the chords are different we managed to make most of the original strings and brass work with them.
