Glamour Hammer is the nom de plum of Swedish-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Adam Jonsson. In the comfort of his home studio, Glamour Hammer swings back and forth between creating dance-oriented disco house and jazz-infused dream pop with a sense of escapism and tongue-in-cheek attitude while always aspiring for a sense of timelessness and analogue feel. Drawing inspiration from a multitude of genres the most influential are 1970s-80s Funk, Disco, boggie, Classic rock, Latin rhythms and Afropop. Recent singles has got support from the likes of Dancing Astronaut, thissongissick.com and many more, and has really started the lounge packed nu-disco world to take notice of his arrival to the party. 

The recording features fellow ICEA-artist Anthony Mills other moniker; his rap alias Toni Sauna. Born and raised in the ”rubber city” Akron Ohio. From here the culture vessels pumped both national and international vibes reputation. This combined with 17 years repping NYC renders Toni’s grit /goon level vibration. The time thru the 90’s forged his ”golden era ” insensitivity. Sauna currently unrests in Stockholm, Sweden as a brand new Swede.  Mr. Sauna earned his signature name from inside public sauna Hermanni in Helsinki, Finland . The combination of street cred, lyricism, and personality is undeniable. Off rip. Likened to an apex predator Toni Sauna bars devour tracks with delicate precision completely harnessing his non-threatening anti- testosterone voice. 

This release comes with two remixes. 

French electronic disco mastermind YUKSEK has created a remix that takes the original in irresistible, bouncy Modern-Disco territory. Earlier this year the original version and the Yuksek remix of 'Is It True' was part of the compilation Too Slow To Disco presents: Modern Daytime Disco released by City Slang (non-exclusive license) alongside ie. Kraak & Smaak, Poolside, Prep, Yuksek, Luxxury.

The latest addition is the brand new remix from MVRE who blurs the line between EDM and pop music, bringing together fresh beats, catchy melodies and crisp, bass heavy production in a tight mix. Since debuting in 2018, the Swedish producer have been releasing music that has consistently landed on international New Music Friday lists, has streams in the millions and counting and have been compared to the likes of Zedd and The Chainsmokers.

Blog tastemakers par excellence House Of Disco return with their third collaborative compilation, teaming up with Hamburg’s acclaimed JEUDI Records for 12 tracks of sublime house, disco and tech tackle.

In the space of just four years and little over 20 releases, Hamburg’s JEUDI Records has established itself as one of the foremost imprints in the world of melodic deep and tech house music. Born from the weekly club night of the same name taking place at their hometown venue Baalsaal (on the infamous Reeperbahn), it’s a label which focuses on quality over quantity, and has showcased music from the likes of Doctor Dru, Adana Twins, Turntablerocker, Sidney Charles and Monte in its short but acclaimed history. Pushing the new breed alongside a smattering of established dons, their riff-fuelled, synth-heavy sounds are encapsulated in their monthly Sceen.fm radio show - and now for the first time in a smoking hot compilation.

House Of Disco are back in full swing after a short hiatus, building on their pedigree that has brought the world music from the likes of Finnebassen, EJECA and Volta Cab over the past two years. With an increasingly busy global DJ schedule, their own parties in London and their own guest mix series bolstering their consistent online curation, they have amassed a sizable, fervent following.

House Of Jeudi makes for a seriously moreish listen, full to the brim of incredibly consistent and charismatic dancefloor delights - with each label picking six tracks. JEUDI’s selection takes us from the moody Reese basslines of Danito & Athina’s Harmony Baby, to Sean Roman’s contemplative I Find Myself and the spooky depths of Camelphat’s 360, while House Of Disco journey through the skippy funk of Roberto Rodriguez’s North Step, HNNY’s delicate Oma Doris, and the slinky disco of LeSale’s Fit Trucker.

Suited just as well to the home stereo as to the dancefloor, it’s an engrossing compilation that’s got plenty to offer for DJs and casual listeners alike, and looks set to cement both labels incredibly solid reps even further.

Sounding like something to come out of Solar Records in 1984, Aeroplane has an instant classic on his hands with this timeless record ‘Love On Hold’. The record embraces Aeroplane’s typically exquisite attention to detail, resulting in a perfect blend of disco, 80s funk and boogie. Seductive, refined and built on a meticulous groove, the track unites textbook instrumentation from the funking bass bridge to the sparkling synth stabs for a slick and effortless production. 

For the vocals to sound truly authentic, Aeroplane tracked down the iconic voice of Tawatha Agee. Not only is Tawatha one of the greatest backing vocalist of our time, singing with Luther Vandross, Kashif or David Bowie to name a few, but she is also the voice of funk legendary band Mtume, singing on their 1983 classic ‘Juicy Fruit’. The credentials of Tawatha’s richly poised voice coupled with Aeroplane’s flawless composition make ‘Love On Hold’ unmissable.
