Discotheque -  Disco Special (Hober's LUKR0N Edit) 320

(So, just to be clear.  Nobody liked yesterday's Interbay SoundCloud Exclusive track, "Jackhammers"?  I thought it was really good--possibly one of my best tracks yet...but I guess I'm alone in that impression.  I'm not trying to change anyone's mind-I'm just surprised.  If you haven't had a chance to listen to "Jackhammers" yet--you might like it, and I encourage you to give it a listen, at least.   And with that out of the way, let's talk about TODAY'S Interbay posted track.)  

I think anyone, around the world, has to be troubled by what's happening in the United States at the moment.  (Of course, I say that full well knowing that enough people here voted for Orange Man Bad to elect him president...twice.  But even those people have to feel a little shame or remorse this time.  Right?  Right???)  

As always, Interbay allows me to indulge in both sharing my own feelings about things AND imagining how other people might feel about things--so, it is hard for me to say that this song is a perfect representation of how I feel about current events.  Hard--because it's not...  I'm not someone who fears that he'll be rounded up and sent overseas with no due process...well, not yet.  (Perhaps this song puts me on a list somewhere?  I don't think it will--it's not incendiary or anything.)  

The story behind the song, as it tends to be with Interbay, is one decision informing the rest of them.  I'd had an unfinished project labeled "Junkyard Disaster" that had some really trashy drums, including some pots and pans, and some industrially harsh sounding synth sounds.  As followers of Interbay know, one of my rules for posting tracks on SoundCloud (which I do EVERY SINGLE DAY, so far--so FOLLOW to see what comes next!) is that every track needs some sort of vocal element...no instrumentals!  

So, I found a couple of royalty free vocal snippets--one of them an authentic African tribal voice call...and the other from a heavily processed future bass pack.  Neither of them did I understand what, if anything was being said.  

...but I heard the word "chokehold" towards the end of the Future Bass vocal sample...and I ran with that.  Roped in Carlos to drop some bars on it and here we are...from junkyard disaster to biting social commentary...all over a cheesy, noisy, retro synth pop with sharp edges sort of tune.  

Some of you first timers might be confused by the jumble of ideas and sounds, but those of you who have been here before...it's just Interbay.  

Please give it (and if you haven't yet, do the same for yesterday's track, "Jackhammers"--a classic piano jack house tune that I think deserves a little more love) a listen...and a like.  Consider reposting, sharing, commenting on, or adding any Interbay track to a playlist.  

...and we'll catch you back here tomorrow for more Interbay!  :)

"Chokehold" *SoundCloud Exclusive*

Housed up rework of a rare Australian Disco/Funk track from 1978 that I was lucky enough to find the 45 of recently. The original is a jerky and guitar heavy funk jam with lots of vocal. I stripped it right back and focussed on the groove from the intro, some guitar licks here and there throughout the tune, and parts of the break and vocal off the outro (which sound very Crown Heights Affair I think). I wanted to make something for housier cats, and maybe capture some of that wild abandon from that era in there too. Hope you like it, and thanks for the support as always.

Sabu's Theme (Preview) (Samosa Records Vinyl Only)

This tune has been a favourite of mine for a long time with more funk/soul sets, since it was featured in a BGP compilation many moons back. I recently found the original 45 of it though, which features an instrumental on the flip, so I couldn't resist making a quick edit that emphasises the better parts. Thats it basically :)

Funk Purpose Vol. 3/2 _ C2. SoulBrigada - Gonna Do [SMS016-2]

It's a great og I just wanted to do a freestyle kind of remix of it emphasising the spacier synth parts and less on the vocal. Keep the pressure on the groove. 
Interesting side note, Tina Weymouth (of Talking Heads/Tom Tom Club)'s sister Laura co-produced this. 

It's open for download straight from here. Comments are appreciated if you like it but no sweat if not. Enjoy.

Chaz Jankel - Pretty Thing (Hober Mallow re-edit)

Midnight Riot's latest release is a label debut for Those Guys From Athens, a collaboration between Greek scene stalwarts DJ Snatch and Blacksoul. They set their stall out with opener "Love Explosion", a rolling, bass-heavy house style re-edit of a heavily orchestrated disco classic, before expertly stretching out a hazy, percussion-laden slab of late 1970s tease-and-release peak-time disco ("Romancing"). "Vibration" sees them lightly tool up a simmering disco jam previously reworked by Beautiful Swimmers, while closing cut "Face To Face" is a lolloping shuffle through horn-heavy disco-funk cheeriness making all tracks sounds like genuine dancefloor winners.

https://soundcloud.com/juno-download REVIEW
There's much to admire on this first full outing from newcomer Ferdinand Debeaufort, whose only previous outing was a sole track on Slightly Transformed's recent Summer Numbers 2020 compilation. By and large, the re-edits are bouncy and floor-focused, with the lavishly named Debeaufort adding a bit more percussive pressure to a variety of disco-centric cuts. He starts in confident mood with a brilliantly chopped-up and rearranged version of an old Fantastic Aleems cut ('Funny Feeling'), before dancing his way through a rubbery disco-boogie number (the synth-sporting 'Make Love'). Elsewhere, 'Casou' is a killer version of a mid-80s French synth-boogie number, 'Can't Do It Alone' is a horn-sporting disco celebration built around short, subtly changing loops, and 'Show Me How' is a low-slung treat.
