Another epic masterpiece of synth-compas fusion from 1985 created by Haiti's Erick Paul (who some may remember for his legendary track "Bel Carnaval / Mardi Gras". Jazzy and uplifting, the vocals elicit comparisons to Brazilian music. This track makes for great dancefloor material with it's euphoric horns, flutes and beautiful keys and synth melodies. Certain parts looped along with a reshuffled structure to maximise the dancing potential! Hope you enjoy x

Erick Paul - Rising (JOSH FB / Discothèque Tropicale Edit)

Record loving selector DJ based in London (and formerly Edinburgh). I love sticking my head in crates and learning more about the amazing music that can be found across the world. 

I'm a bit of retro zouk specialist (checkout my zouk show on My Analog Journal for more) but also have a great interest in soca, highlife, makossa, PALOP music, bubblegum, kwaito, latin freestyle and beyond - I enjoy celebrating globally sourced groovy records to fill dancefloors, and deliver an experience that makes club goers smile while they move

My mission is to spread this wonderful music and the talented artists that contributed to its creation with as many as people as possible! 

I run a clubnight and reissue / edits label along with a few friends called “Discothèque Tropicale”. Music to bring the boogie, fill the floors and put smiles on faces! 

I do the programming for London based radio station LOOSE FM where I also run the radio shows ‘The Listening Bar’ & 'Musical Backpacking' focussing each show and the record digging on a specific genre, theme or area. 

Pls ask for IDs I’ll always give them! Don't be a stranger, drop me a DM on Instagram anytime I always love to connect with fellow music lovers from around the world. Send me music pls 🙌

Music is a universal language with the power to break barriers and bring people together ❤️
