Here at The Disco Express, we are delighted to welcome Rose Robinson aka Tigerbalm to the label for her fantastic original EP, Jungle Pleasure.

Previously one half of UK duo Earthboogie, Tigerbalm's production fuses a deep tribal sound with electronic elements. Created using organic instrumentation her music stems from inspirations within African & Latin American music. With releases on Leng Records and soon Ubiquity, Tigerbalm celebrates international sounds, cosmic disco grooves and dance music.

Lead track Balveyda showcases Tigerbalm's versatility as a live musician and producer. Its brilliant tribal rhythms and raw uplifting melodies create a totally unique sound. Weaving through a multitude of patterns and stages, Balveyda is a 9 minute odyssey that defines her sound.

Following suit is Love Feat. Joy Tyson. Known for her work with Afro-Folk duo Farafim and Shishko Disco, Joy is a solo artist and collaborator who's stunning vocals overlaps Tigerbalm's progressive live instrumentation. The pair connected in late 2019 and wrote this tropical ballad together with vocals sung in English and Xhosa.

The Jungle Pleasure EP is neatly rounded off with two stellar club ready remixes from C.Da Afro and label resident Soundsmith.

PREMIERE : Tigerbalm - Balveyda

Proto-future Pop exhumed from ‘86, Romie Singh’s ‘Dancing to Forget’, could easily be mistaken for an up-to-the minute R&B instrumental from ‘22. The song’s elastic swing reminiscent of a vintage Wally Badarou Compass Point session. Instead masterminded by studio maestros Günther Janssen (more lately of Donna Regina) & Peter Hantke, while Romie’s vocals soar above. It's a timeless call to escape life’s ill’s via the dancefloor.

Collected on Strangelove the cavernous, dubbed out ‘D.T.F.’ (12” version) sits alongside the prescient hope/dystopia of LP cut ‘Future World’ (cue Covid World) and the killer balearic-beat sass of ‘Credo’ A short sharp 3 track jolt into the tr

The SPECIAL DELIVERY – the vinyl iteration of I'm A Cliché's EDIT SERVICE – is back. After last year's first instalment in the series that featured acclaimed edits by Red Axes and Rouge Mécanique, this time around we commit to wax four edits that come courtesy of Mannequin Records' A.A. We'll let you connoisseurs trace back the originals.

A1. Systa — Driven by female vocals and a LinnDrum groove this mid-tempo edit is a melodic and elegant affair. As the track progresses it becomes more and more ominous and there is no doubt you’ll witness the dance floor breaking down while it’s played.

A2. Atema — An uptempo number where production and vocals harken back to the sound of Italian new wave. Culled from an ultra rare cassette-only release, this is a compelling track that will make everybody feel the rhythm of the dance. 

B1. Pava — Another reminder that Italian film soundtracks from the late 70’s and early 80’s are absolute gold mines. This number where bass guitar, live drums and a fair share of analog keyboards are used truly stands out thanks to its plodding groove and slow motion dance-inducing rhythm. Perfect for warm-ups or wind-downs. 

B2. Lapi — If there’s a banger on the EP, this is it. Retro-futuristic, dark and catchy this rare minimal wave cut is quite irresistible and this edit is bound to cause some interesting damage on the dance floor.

Each copy is hand-stamped and come with an exclusive poster (40x60cm) folded and inserted in a picture disc-style PVC sleeve.

5 Years of Love On The Rocks
4 x 12" compilation, 15 November 2019

Paramida made her name as an integral part of the new Berlin school of DJs embracing a more expansive sound, a charismatic and eclectic idealism beyond the steady, straight-forward pulse of house and techno. Following five years at the city’s diverse OYE Records store, and alongside an international schedule of DJing, she has spent the previous five crafting her Love On The Rocks label in that same generous spirit. 

Now, with half a decade passed, she has called upon many of the label’s previous associates, alongside some new faces, to curate a four-disc compilation produced upon the adventurous and personal principles upon which the label was founded. The title of the collection is ‘Supergau’, which Paramida explains to mean "A disaster beyond all expectations". It’s a typically pithy title for a label that’s found a unique groove between dancefloor fulfillment and surprising turns, keeping it’s dedicated buyers and open-minded DJs on their toes, just as Paramida likes it. Still, it hasn’t always been easy.

“Those 5 years didn't fly by,'' admits Paramida. “I had moments of doubts and thoughts about stopping the label. But something inside didn't let it happen. So whatever I'm doing with the label is something that is so deeply rooted in me that I'm not ready to stop yet. This compilation represents five years of ups and downs, tears and joy, growing, losing and finding itself again. I've never really questioned or reflected it much. The label has been pretty much a mirror of my personal life, my taste at a certain point and the artist or person that was involved in my life at that particular stage of my life. As such, I want to give this first chapter of Love On The Rocks a nice closure.”

Some artists on the compilation return to the fold, such including Fantastic Man, Massimiliano Pagliara, Violet, ELLES, Etbonz, Dirk Leyers and Alex Kassian. Others are featured for the first time such as Francis Inferno Orchestra, Bartellow and Eric Duncan. And others again are a complete surprise, including Kornél Kovács, Daniela La Luz and Hermann Kristoffersen. ‘5 Years of Love On The Rocks’ presents an opportunity for artists to explore the charismatic boundaries between house, disco, new wave and acid, with the shared goal of sheer dancefloor bliss.

“Every record I put out felt like a message I'm sending out into the universe”, explains Paramida. “And everyone featured on this compilation is someone I deeply connect with, even though it's a pretty unexpected mix of artists. Here’s to the next five years.”

Taken from Flug 8's new album 'Electric Field'
Out June 19th - https://ransom-note-records.lnk.to/Electric-Field

If the upbeat, driving ‘Space Techno’ acted as the lift-off, ‘Electric Field’ sees @Flug-8 remove his hand from the throttle, pull the shuttle into low earth orbit, soundtracking the cosmos as he watches from his porthole. We know there’s no sound in space, but if there was, we think it’d sound something like this.

This Album, a child of the Shelter Me Festival in December 2020, is in Aid of Shelter UK and the
wonderful work they do to helping people with homelessness or difficult housing conditions.
The Festival took place over 3 days, across the 3 cities of Manchester, London and Leeds, and
several of the artists who performed live at the event have contributed to this production too.
The track used for the project is entitled Shake Up Your Mind by Steady State which contains a
vocal sample of Ofra Haza from her song entitled Im Nin Alu. All remixes were created with the
greatest love and respect, with one common goal, to help others less fortunate than ourselves
through music, unity and genuine will to make a positive change.
Each and every one of the artists, producers and mastering services have generously given their
time freely to create a unique album of 21 remixes, spanning a colourful musical spectrum from
Dense Dark Dubbiness, through Timeless Techno and Uplifting Acid, to Squelchy Squalid
Chuggers.
This is a limited release set for 05.03.21 with all proceeds going the Shelter Uk.
All of us at Shelter Me would like to thank everyone who has helped, supported and contributed
along the way.

Big love,
Ed Tomlinson, Ells Bells, John Paynter, Julie-Ann Smith & Stephen Molyneux
