Uncle Louie - Full Tilt Boogie (Ramsey Hercules Pt. 1&2 Edit)

I am really happy & honoured to announce the officially licensed release of this rare disco / modern soul gem from 1980. Here is my small story about this : I have been introduced to this record a few years back by DJ Klas. On the very first listen, it made me crazy & I went on an intensive & long quest to get myself a copy of the 45. It then became a kind of classics of my DJ sets, the record always being in my bag. It is definitely a sure shot for the dancefloor ! 

I then got in touch with the artist Lamar Thomas, first to try to get a spare copy, but after a few conversations on the web, I told myself it would be nice to give this rare & excellent record a new release. Pascal Rioux & Favorite Recordings finally agreed on the idea, and here it is. 

Very happy & honoured to have contributed to this nice release. Big thanks to Josh Goldman aka DJ Klas, Roger Thornill (for providing the original sleeve art) & to Favorite Recordings for believing in this project!

This collection of underground dance music covers tracks released between 1975 and 1983 from both sides of the Atlantic. The tracks chosen for this compilation introduce some of the pioneering few who expanded the horizons of disco to incorporate elements of dub, funk, electro, jazz and Latin. In some ways many of the artists featured here foresaw the birth of successive musical genres. There is no disputing that they were all well ahead of their time and with the recent trend of similarly inspired house they sound as fresh today as they did then.

The music chosen for this album were the underground classics that made the scene what it was in the heady of days of the Paradise Garage and the Loft in NYC and the Warehouse in Chicago where DJs such as Arthur Baker and Francois Kervorkian could be heard spinning such tracks.

On disc two (CD version only) Masters at Work add their touches to one of their favourite tracks while Harvey and Underdog take on the Disco Dub band and come up with two very different interpretations which will work on today’s dancefloors. 

Disco Dub Band - For The Love Of Money

🎵 Track: Hari Om (Tribal Mix)
🎨 Album: Sanctum Internum
🌀 Artist: Resonancia Sagrada

Description:
A tribal invocation echoing through the heartbeat of the earth, Hari Om (Tribal Mix) fuses ancient mantra with ecstatic percussion and deep-rooted grooves. Anchored by a powerful rhythmic pulse, the composition weaves together primal frame drums, organic shakers, and earthy bass with subtle layers of bansuri and sacred whispers. The mantra Hari Om emerges like a call from the soul — not repeated, but offered once, with solemnity and fire.

This piece invites the listener into a trance of embodied remembrance — a dance that transcends mind and enters the space of sacred instinct. It is both grounding and liberating, an offering to the eternal silence behind all sound.

The first full album release ‘Life on The Street’ is a vibrant demonstration of how the band have played and worked closely together to create their own take on West African Highlife and Afrobeat, blending it with heavier funk, rock and jazz genres, enhancing the cross-cultural collaboration of members hailing from across Africa and Europe.

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.
