Mfon - Rubberlegs (Studio 54 Remix)

http://www.mrbongo.com/product/spaced-out-ten-original-disco-funk-grooves-cd-1164

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.

Oliver N'Goma - Lina (Masalo's Acid Dream Version)

Lungile Masitha was the short-lived studio name for renowned SA artist Sello ‘Chicco’ Twala, who played with such iconic bands as Harari and Umoja. However, in the mid 80’s his name was under license to one of the major labels and in an effort for self-expression recorded under the name ‘Lungile Masitha’, here he linked up with long term friend Jimmy Mngwandi to co-write and arrange the two tracks ‘Vuyani’ & ‘Makoti’, both sung in his native Tsongan tongue. Vuyani is an upbeat tune that matches Chicco’s unique vocal style with percolating drums and distorted choruses to incredible effect, while Makoti is a mellower blend of floating keys and choruses sung by local kids in an effort to expose “emerging talent”. Due out Jan 29th, distro through Rushhour.

Piccadilly records review:
"Mmmm yeah, it's time for another MMDISCOS, this time featuring the stellar selections and edit expertise of Franz Scala. Not only is Franz one of the biggest Italo DJs in the game, he's the owner of the excellent Slow Motion imprint, which stands alongside the likes of Red Laser and Bordello A Parigi at the top of the nuovo Italo tree. 
We're in electrifying Italo territory right from the off here as Franz works his magic on Electra's "Are You Automatic", a midtempo mover whose camp vocal examines cybernetic affairs while the chugging sequences and detailed percussion powers on below. Neon-tinged and stiff with hairspray, this high drama heater should move your floor from the warm up to the peak time perfectly. Over on the B1, Franz freaks GJ Lunghi's "Acapulco Nights", drawing every ounce of drama out of the resort-Italo classic. Building up from a majestic bassline, the track grooves through sparkling sequences, sci-fi stabs and swelling pads, peaking with a murmured vocal and big pianos - Italo perfection if you ask me. Not content with flooding your pleasure centres with "Acapulco Nights" Franz takes on Wish Keys' "The One You Love", stripping back the vocals, upping the tempo a little and letting those outrageous instrumental elements come to the fore. Sustained pads, jazz-meets-Italo bass synth and sublime sax take you there, then the uber-80's Cocaine in Rimini romance crashes in like a wave. Italo for the Balearic crowd!

Piccadilly records Staff comments:
Patrick says: Massive Italo edits from the Slow Motion label head. Stepping away from those slamming 4/4 heaters the techno DJs love to drop, this is resort Italo for the Balearic crowd - all end of season melancholy until the next bump arrives. In the bag!"

Behind The Sun (Dub) is the track that gives you first glimpse at the sound palette of this first record on russian label "Potential Move". Unlike many tracks with 303 bassline widely known for being used as a warehouse weapon knocking bricks hard out the wall, this track shows that it can have a bright, dreamy and somewhat, a romantic take on the genre delivering it in a very unusual way. The bassline is being accompanied with a blissful, lush pad adding a bit chorus and delay to taste creates a very harmonic vibe where all the elements are perfectly coming in together. If you’re looking for a jam that would be a soundtrack to your bright moments, don’t look no further - this one will do the trick without a doubt. We’ll stop from here and let the music speak for itself. We hope you’ll enjoy this beautiful piece of music as much as we did.
