Riding a wave of critical praise and positive feedback for his most recent Emperor Machine album, the fabulous Island Boogie, Andrew Meecham returns with a typically wild and dancefloor-focused set of dubs, ‘versions’ and remixes.

According to Meecham, Island Boogie is his most personal set to date – a full-length excursion that not only delivers perfectly formed expressions of his dub-tinged, off-kilter synth-boogie sound, but also tracks that draw deeply on his earliest influences and long-held musical expressions.

It’s fitting, then, that this remix EP begins with his own sparse, stripped-back ‘version’ rework of ‘S-S-S-Single Bed’, a fine cover of the mid-80s Fox single featuring the vocals of Michelle Bee. Meecham’s dub-wise revision is a skeletal and driving affair, with snippets of echoing guitar, colourful synths and Bee’s distinctive vocalisations rising above a weighty dub disco bassline and rock-solid percussion.

It's followed by two revisions of album favourite ‘Wanna Pop With You’ from A Love From Outer Space main man Sean Johnston under his now familiar Hardway Brothers alias. Combining his own love of raw, analogue-sounding electronics and trippy dancefloor psychedelia with select elements of Meecham’s original – percussion, synth sounds, crisp guitar licks and elements of Séverine Mouletin’s lead vocals, Johnston’s main ‘remix’ is a weighty, mid-tempo treat. Arguably even better is his accompanying dub, which is more groove-and-effects focused and makes more of Meecham’s superb original bassline. It’s heavy, spaced-out and undeniably intoxicating.

To round off the package, long-time friend of the label (and sometime contributor) Rose Robinson dons her Tigerbalm pseudonym and gets to work on ‘La Cassette’. Brilliantly cutting up Séverine Mouletin’s vocals, she delivers a driving slab of spaced-out, synth-heavy dub disco that adds more weight and energy to Meecham’s original. It’s a fittingly on-point way to close out a superb selection of club-ready revisions.

The Reworks Vol 3 EP
Label -DiscoDat
Released - 25th October 2024
BUY FROM - https://www.junodownload.com/products/disco-tech-the-reworks-vol-3/6824794-02/

11 months after launching his popular 'Reworks' series of re-edit compilations, DiscoTech returns with volume three. As usual, the material on offer is tried-and-tested and comprises reworks of both familiar favourites and lesser-known gems - all tailored to the demands of 21st century dancefloors. He begins by lightly tooling up an infectious, low-slung European AOR disco jam ('It Just Begun') before sprinting between saucer-eyed 1970s disco ('Love Inside', seemingly a cover of a more familiar fave), looped-up blue-eyed soul ('On My Mind'), disco-reggae ('Feel About You'), tease-and-release dancefloor soul ('Lights') and glossy, synth-powered '80s soul ('Make a Move').

PREMIERE: Disco Tech - It's Begun [DiscoDat]

The latest 'Paper Years' compilation is here, and what a treat. We take a retrospective look at Florida's very own nu-disco bodyrocker and head honcho at Whiskey Disco, Sleazy McQueen. 

Going back over 10 years, he has provided us with a bundle of dance floor flavours, starting with the proto-house of the Reconnect EP in 2011. Reworks and remixes followed as he joined the Paper family; Crazy P, Flash Atkins, Richard Seaborne and Leon Sweet were all sprinkled with his magic disco dust. The label has also been a home to his Space Coast project, for a slightly deeper side of things in a collaboration with Jorge Collazo. 

The compilation features production highlights, as well as choice reworks and remixes. And if that wasn't enough, there's a brand new track from his disco den to make the comp a must have.
