Introducing CWPT - the brand new label from Berlin-based, British DJ and producer Palms Trax.

For the label’s maiden voyage, Palms Trax teams up with South African vocalist Nonku Phiri for the soulful, Afropop-inspired disco groover ‘Petu’.

The hawk-eyed amongst you may recognise the dub version of ‘Petu’ from Palms Trax’s set at The Music Locker as part of Grand Theft Auto Online, but it’s the supercharged remix from Amsterdam-based producer Masalo that gets our pick for the premiere. Enjoy!

Tom Trago's new 12", the album sampler to the upcoming album The Light Fantastic. Featuring the dancefloor stomper "Two Together" which was co-produced by Steffi, "True Friends" featuring Breach on the vocals and the non-album track "Avenido". Big TIp! 

Tom Trago is back, giddily dancing out of the studio into the dizzying light of a European summer. Tucked under his arm are the masters for his third album, The Light Fantastic.

Since his most recent appearance on Rush Hour last autumn, Trago has spent most of his time in the studio. Over four memorable months, he constantly jammed, recorded, tweaked and produced tracks, until he had enough strong material to put together what might just be his best full-length to date. 

Along the way, he was joined by an impressive guest list of guests and collaborators from Amsterdam and beyond, all of who were roped in after “popping into the studio to hang out”. 

You’ll have to wait to hear the album, but the good news is that there’s an enticing teaser of what’s to come in the shape of this formidable three-track taster. One of the tracks, the chiming, loose-limbed, bass-heavy workout “Avenido”, is exclusive to this 12”.

When he sat down to make The Light Fantastic, Trago was keen to recapture the essence of his early work, and particularly the melodic warmth, kaleidoscopic chords and robust grooves that characterized his 2009 debut album, Voyage Direct. This time, though, he wanted to rely less on samples and apply the lessons learnt from four years of largely acclaimed production work. As a result, The Light Fantastic oozes a gleeful sense of fun, whilst retaining the depth and definition that has always been a hallmark of Trago’s work.

The two album tracks featured on this sampler confirm the rich dividends that this new approach brought. “True Friends”, featuring the combined talents of Brit-in-Amsterdam Ben Westbeech and local hero San Proper, bristles with loved-up positivity, all bubbling electronic melodies, fuzzy vocoder vocals and jaunty, bottom-end bounce.

From the Rush Hour site: 
Then there’s the small matter of “Two Together”, an extra large helping of the kind of loopy, feel-good deep house funk with which he made his name. Expertly teased, tweaked and produced, it sees nagging hooks, darting synths, jazz keys and disco stabs riding a relentless, full-throttle groove. Co-produced with Berlin-based Dutch producer Steffi, it’s nothing less than a wide-eyed late night rush. If it doesn’t have you tripping The Light Fantastic, nothing will.

Two Together feat. Steffi

Brothers Simon & Robin Lee are Faze Action. They have been writing, producing, playing live and DJing for over 20 years and have released 5 critically acclaimed artist LPs and countless remixes, making them one of the most credible and in demand original artists within the growing Disco, House and Balearic scene.
 
Their early successes, included “In the Trees” that features Robin’s classical ‘cello, and “Disco Motion”, became instant classics on the Nuphonic label and changed the musical landscape at the time, paving the way for the Disco revival of today.

The brothers started their musical journey growing up in Amersham in the suburbs of London. With its close proximity to the capital city, Simon & Robin soon found themselves becoming obsessed with Disco, Jazz Funk and early House music. Robin, who was already learning the ‘cello and piano’, says.

 “Simon would bring home records, like Johnny Hammond’s Fantasy, and ask me to play along. We had never heard music like this and we felt we were discovering something new. It was intoxicating”.

By the mid 90’s Simon was DJing and working in a record shop and Robin was playing live regularly in classical concerts and bands. They decided to make their first record, entitled “Original Disco Motion”, a contemporary slice of modern disco, which was sampled by Moodyman, released on the legendary Nuphonic label. 

The track became an instant underground classic, garnering support from Francois K and Frankie Knuckles. This set them up for the next release; “In The Trees”, which went on to become recognised as one of the UK’s classic house records, linking Faze Action to the birth of House and Disco in the UK.

Through the 90’s, 00’s and up to the present day, Faze Action have released an impressive amount of credible original music, including their stunning Afro, Disco, House track, “Kariba” with Zimbabwean artist Zeke Manyika and ”Samba", with Nina Miranda, from their “Moving Cities” LP. 

In 2006 they set up their own label (FAR) and released the classic Space Disco LP "Stratus Energy”, which included “Good Lovin’” and “I Wanna Dancer”, that received support from Horse Meat Disco, Joey Negro and Dimitri from Paris. 

With their 2014 LP; “Body of One”, Faze Action proved they could reach a wider audience when the single “Time By Your Side” reached over a million plays on Spotify. 

Recent releases on their FAR imprint have included the highly sort after “Mangwana” featuring Zeke Manyika, “Vamos Pintar” with Nina Miranda plus the underground Disco hit “Get Up & Dance" by Andromeda Orchestra and more recently Rudy’s Midnight Machine’s shimmering Balearic classic “Midnight Safari”.



Not content with writing and producing new music, Simon and Robin are in demand as DJs and have criss crossed the globe playing at festivals and clubs with their trademark sets joining the dots between Disco, Afro, Balearic and beyond. They are also avid record collectors stating that 

“It’s a constant source of inspiration for writing and our DJ sets”

 This has culminated in a number of compilations including the up and coming “Under the Influence Vol. 7” for Joey Negro’s Z records, set for release in May 0f 2018.


Faze Action are one of the few acts, in the modern disco world, who write and create original music. Faze Action have said in the past that 

“You can’t beat the feeling when you have created something new and you see it connect with a crowd that you are DJing to.”

Their music has also been featured in adverts and films for the likes of Chanel and on HBO.

One of Faze Action’s strong points is their live show, which again has seen them connect with audiences on every continent including Glastonbury and US tour support for Groove Armada.
