After a series of singles and an album (Sickla) Opolopo returns to Local Talk with a reworks album where he was given free choice to 'tweak' his personal favorites from the Local Talk vault. Over the 10 tracks Opolopo has chosen to tweak tracks from Jamie 326 & Masalo, Soulphiction (RIP), Kiko Navarro, DirtyTwo and Soul Renegades to name a few. As always with Opolopo the soul is ever-present but musically you'll find everything from deep house, disco, jazz-ish grooves and electronic house. Together with Opolopo's trademark sound, additional production and arrangements they are more remixes than reworks in our opinion.

First up from the Tweak album is the by now classic track 'Testify' by Jamie 3:26 & Masalo.

Rocksteady Disco label owner and party thrower @Petercroce is coming to Brooklyn's @razor-n-tape with an awesome EP straight from Detroit! 

Get Up and Boogie is classic disco groove banger. Outstanding construction, massive bassline, some horns and you have all the ingredients for a dancefloor  wrecker.

RNT032 - Peter Croce Edits

Premiere - Razor-N-Tape - Peter Croce - Get Up and Boogie

Peter Croce has been making some noise lately with his Rocksteady Disco party and record label, and here he brings his burgeoning rework sensibilities to RNT with a varied pack of revisions straight from Detroit! On the ecstatic uptempo face-melting tip, we have Spirit Dance and Get Up And Boogie, either of which are sure to burn down any disco. Then there’s the hard-working, grown-ass groove of Proletariat Blues, and Made In China, a beautiful slow-burner for those early evening spins or late-night comedowns.

First Listen: Peter Croce - 'Spirit Dance' (Razor-N-Tape)

Kampana delivers once again with a pair of dance floor gems that will please lovers of funk, disco and gospel alike.

On the A-side, Aroop Roy means serious business with 'Reason to Dance'. Driven by an outrageous slap bass, infectious horn stabs and a limb-shaking vocal refrain, it's no surprise that this has been THE secret weapon of his recent sets around the world.

On the flip, Detroit native @petercroce, fresh from the huge success of his Razor-N-Tape EP, comes in equally strong, with the gospel-fuelled disco cut 'Just Like Heaven'. The track builds patiently, lingering on a raw disco groove, honing in on a powerful brass section and spirit-lifting vocals, and eventually climaxing with epic strings and thunderous piano.

After a couple years behind the scenes label boss Peter Croce (aka Mr. PC) is back in the production seat to release 3 of his most prized edits with a message. First up is “Life Is A Circle”, a peak hour Philadelphia Disco classic, remastered and extended in all the right places for maximum ecstatic dance floor use. Rounding out the A side is “What Can I Do For You?”, a Gallery-era R&B proto-disco cut with a massive drum break that never got the 12” treatment that it deserved until now. On the flip Peter delivers some dance floor meditation, complete with tons of drums and dub poetry for the heads that dream of a better day. These 3 have been tried and tested on dance floors from Detroit to Chicago and London to Paris, and Rocksteady Disco is excited for you to have them in your mitts. Vinyl only, and hand-stamped by Mr. PC himself. 

Supported by Jimpster, Frank Booker, Craig Smith, Soul Clap, Chrissy, Mr. Mendel, Souldynamic, MANIK, Mark Hume, Craig Charles, Dazzle Drums, and more.

Third and final track from the forthcoming Kat Records 12" release, track B2 and probably my favourite of the bunch. I really went to town on this one, had a lot of fun adding layers of percussion, latin piano, fat brazilian horns and a whole new chorus to blend in with the sweet original, a long time fave track of mine by maestro Manfredo Fest. I hope you enjoy the results! 

Special thanks to Dusty & Chip for your valuable input, and Lynn @ Ebony Cuts Mastering.

Rainer Truby [Germany] - "Ain´t No Sunshine" for me here…well done spiced up Sivuca niceness…;)

Craig Charles, Funk and Soul Show, BBC6 Radio [UK] - Played on Saturday 9th Feb 2013

Dj Ease, Nightmares on Wax [UK] - Totally loving these...

Michael Rutten, Soul Searching [Germany] - Mos def going for the Latin twists here, two for the summer, and winter, and spring, and yes, autumn, why not?

Danielle Moore, Crazy P [UK] - WOW INDEED&rt; Red Hott my fave . Thats how I like my funk. Deep, industrially deep even! Synthed out of its face. Heavy bass that makes you want to dance in the doctors waiting room. Great package... thank you xxx

Jeremy Sole - KCRW / theLIFT - Los Angeles [USA] Played "Ain't No Sunshine" on my show last week. Love it!

Simon Harrison, Basic Soul Radio [UK] - Damn these mixes are fantastic - my fave so far is Ain't No sunshine which will feature on next week's show!!

Leftside Wobble [UK] - Stella release. From a personal perspective it's great to see KAT back to it's roots of quirky leftfield jazz-dance numbers and underground soulful funk. Real quality across all three cuts.

Andy Wilson, Sonica Radio [Ibiza] - I wondered what happened to Casbah 73, I used to play his Lovemonk LP a lot. Sivuca is an old favourite and the Manfredo Fest track is amazing, love it. Played it on my show this week, another quality selection, thanks!

Graeme Park [UK] - Love these tracks... Especially Big Fat Bottom.

Richard Rogers / Black Booby [UK] - Redd Hott - Big Fat Bottom (Casbah 73 Edit) - Big slapping arse style edit that fits quite nicely into the BB sound, My ass is shaking all over the place just thinking about it! Sivuca - Aint No Sunshine (Casbah 73 Rework 2013) - My fav on the EP, beautiful intro and blissful percussion, has been treated with love

Bobby Beige, Garden Festival Resident [Croatia] - Casbah 73 edits show us some seriously good cut up Latin funk bombs. Manfredo takes us into carnival territory with it's big brass licks, whilst Red Hott gives us some Trouble Funk style rhythms and cut up samples. Sivuca rounds things off nicely with it's nice slowed down part before kicking back in again full tilt. Full Support,

Mark Milz, Radio Corax [Germany] - Essential stuff...really feelin' the "Big Fat Bottom edit" !!!

Dj Kwak, Strictly Niceness [Brussels] - Jungle Kitten Is just plain ridiculously good ... Aired upon arrival in the show tonight!!
