Its About Faith (Chuggin Edits) FREE Thank You -  10k Follows on Soundcloud

(excuse the extra stuff added to the file to distract the copyright police - the download is just the 5 minute track!)

I’ve got a new free download for you - an edit of Messages from the Stars by RAH Band. I’ve loved this strange little tune for years - it’s got that irresistibly funky 80s boogie bass that I love so much. I heard it a while back and thought now is the time to put my spin on it. I’ve given it a little spruce up, added some new percussion and rearranged it a bit, and I’m fairly pleased with the result. I’m giving it away for you so please download, enjoy and share with anyone who likes that sort of thing.

What Is Luv (Chuggin Edits)

Mono/Loco lands on Red Snapper with a paean to a pivotal time and place in the growth of the global house movement.

After the acid house revolution of the late 1980s, his native UK went 4-4 crazy. The dance press of the early 1990s was filled with news of nights in previously unfashionable venues as the big-name DJ circuit started to coalesce. The result? One nation under a groove.

Mono/Loco was in the thick of it, regularly attending venues such as Shelley’s in Stoke, Quadrant Park in Liverpool and the Eclipse in Coventry - as well as Manchester’s legendary Hacienda.

Heroic Dancefloor contains multiple nods to the soundtrack of that podium-pounding period, fusing its wide-eyed fervour to a contemporary sensibility. Yes, there are ravey stabs, snatches of diva vocal and held strings, but also pulsing pads and a smooth rolling groove.

“I was incredibly lucky that my formative clubbing experiences were at that point in time,” says Mono/Loco. “It was political as well as hedonistic. The movement might not have changed the world as much as we thought it would, but it changed me.”

Heroic Dancefloor is the latest release from the Natural Rhythms family of labels, which also includes Grass Green, Electric Orange and Black Sands. Like Red Snapper, all take their names from Aotearoa-New Zealand’s beautiful natural environment.

Coming soon, Heroic Dancefloor - Part 2 will feature remixes of the original by fellow members of the Natural Rhythms collective, Soulfoundation and nineteen79.

Leon Dahl in the mix May 2024

Chris Reed follows up his hit Lounacy EP (#1 deep house, Juno Download) with a superb salvo of peak-time deep house goodness for Electric Orange.



Unframed Pedantry juxtaposes super-smooth instrumentation with stomping conga-driven drums and a proper throbber of a sub bass.



On the original mix, a filtered loop and punchy stabs sets the tone, with picked percussive guitar and rolling Hammond organ licks completing the music canvas. The finishing touch is a glassy-eyed vocal promising that “love is what we need”.



The dub lengthens the build, rations the stabs and drops the vocal, creating a more intense, yet still smooth experience for locked-in floors.



Unframed Pedantry is the latest release from the Natural Rhythms family of labels, which also includes Grass Green, Black Sands and Red Snapper. Like Electric Orange, all take their names from Aotearoa-New Zealand’s beautiful natural environment.



Only the second solo release under his own name, Chris has an array of aliases, including Mono/Loco and Neuro Mas. He’s also released - with Paul Radley - as Reed & Radley, Monkey Boots and Shallow Taxi Club.

Funkier Session #012 - Pete Ellison

AKA Leon D. Producer, Musician, DJ. Auckland, Aotearoa - New Zealand.

Leon Dahl DJs regularly around NZ playing original disco, funk, soul, boogie & house music and being a vinyl junkie prefers to play vinyl-only sets.

Production credits include remixes for Little Bark, and release on Fingerman's Hot Digits Eight digital compilation.
Keep an eye our for upcoming releases on Kiwi label Grass Green.

Leon Dahl cut his musical teeth playing guitar in rock band Fat Mannequin, which introduced him to both the live stage and studio environment from age 16.
In '98, frustrated by the lack of tonal variety in guitars, Leon D swapped his for a collection of keyboards and samplers, and the rest is history. As a natural progression from producing dance music, Leon D started DJing late 1998.

Leon Dahl has clocked up DJ support slots for many international acts including Ian Pooley, Eddie Matos, FC Kahuna, DJ Joshua, Dano, Miles Hollway and Jonathan Yeo.

Part of the Cuffy & Leon D production team.

Cuffy and Leon teamed up in 1999 combining their gear and knowledge in pursuit of creating their own sound. With a number of vinyl and CD releases in the golden era of NZ dance music they crafted their sound from electronica to disco.

By day, Leon is Product Manager for the Recording, Synth, DJ & Livesound brands at Rockshop, New Zealand's largest musical instrument retailer.

Your Love feat Anthony Gold
