FREE CALL #13 : Cosa Rosa - Toledo Girl (Lau Tropico Edit)

Free Download : https://hypeddit.com/track/vgu730

Laurens Geerts (aka Lau Tropico) is an Antwerp-based producer and music selector with a big heart for the Balearic beat era. What's his sound? Well, think hints of Italo disco, mix some new beat, and then add some electro mixed exotic sounds. Yeah - this guy wants to bring the right grooves to make your boring place more tropical.

about the edit : 
Lau discovered Toledo Girl while looking for some Italo disco gems.
The melody had all the right ingredients to become a dancefloor banger. But it lacked power and a coherent arrangement.
At first, he just wanted to re-arrange the song but in the end, he created a new bass line, melody, and drums:  *Something New*
He edited this track during lockdown with a sweaty dancefloor in mind. So if you are looking for a new banger, this should be the one.

BOOTS & LEGS - ‘FAMILY SECRETS’ COMPILATION [DIGI001] 
Release Date: MAY 2022

Pull up a chair and grab yourself a stoney peroni for this feast of feasts, the inaugural Segreti Di Famiglia from Boots & Legs. A seven-course meal with dishes from B&L mainstays, as well as some new guests making especially saucy debuts. 

First up, Romain FX returns to the cobbler’s kitchen with ‘Neon Train’, plating up some weapons-grade machine grooves, garnished with hypnotic vocals - guaranteed to whet your appetite. GREETINGS follows up this electrifying entree the introduction of the enigmatic ‘Flavio Zoom’, a cosmic search through robust and considered flavours. Newcomer Sam In Space makes a splash with mid-meal workout ‘Aerobic’, charismatic dark disco with an athletic flair. Things take a turn for the sampladelic with the strange and playful mutant funk of ‘Pre Club’ by Club Sausages, before an all-time classic gets an imaginative Italo rework with ‘The Rhythm’ by Black Feeling. Kayroy teams up with Imogen Cygler for a palette cleansing contemplative chugger ‘Eggna’, with dreamy arpeggios building to a dreamy crescendo, before Pleasure Voyage present final course ‘Return’, a fitting sunset synth-pop soundtrack that’s the bittersweet like the perfect negroni.     

 “All are welcome at this table - live, laugh, linguini.”

Black Feeling - The Rhythm

A personal rework of one of my favorite classics ever, New Order's Blue Monday. 
I had mixed feelings the first time I heard it in some club. These dribbling bass drums were kind of weird to me. I couldn't really understand why people were mad when they recognized the track. Then, when I left, I realized the only melodies that were still around in my head were those of this pure classic. I started to listen to it and couldn't help but put it on hard rotation at home and in my studio. I became obsessed with it and even wanted to own the same hardware that was used to produce it (a few days later, I bought an Oberheim DX from some guy who claimed he signed with Virgin Records on the same day as Daft Punk). 
The original multitracks sessions are publicly available so I had to do something...so here we are. I wanted to give the track a more modern & Italo direction, while trying to respect the original vibe. 
Hope you'll enjoy it & spin it in front of passionate crowds. 
The artwork is a tribute to John Carpenter's Christine (1983), which was released a few months later.

FREE CALL #18 : Stevie Nicks - Edge Of Seventeen ( Karassimeon Edit ) 

Free download : https://hypeddit.com/karassimeon/freecall18stevienicksedgeofseventeenkarassimeon


Hailing from Paris with Bulgarian roots, Karassimeon has
dedicated his artistic journey to the electronic sound of past
decades, mainly the 70s, the 80s and early 90s.
Disco and EBM are his conflicting obsessions : his motto is
“Glitter & Leather”. Above all, his main inspirations are
cinematographic and dystopian, embodied by artists such as
Goblin, John Carpenter and Giorgi Moroder.

His producer career started with the inevitable encounter with
Toulouse based Ritmo Fatale, resulting in the release of a
string of tracks embodying their shared passion for both the
italo-disco legacy and the French touch sound embodied by
Zone, Ed Banger or Institubes records.

Besides this, his love for the sound of the 80s results in an
ever-growing collection of edits, which he shares with his
community, spreading the love for classics such as Blue
Monday by New Order, It's A Sin by the Pet Shop
Boys...among many to come

About the Edit :

Although Karassimeon had always been a fan of Fleetwood
Mac, he hadn’t initially payed attention to this hit written by their
lead singer Stevie Nicks. The infectious throaty vocal line, both
verses and chorus, enriched by powerful choirs, was one of the
most inspiring he had ever heard.
The murder of John Lennon in December 1980 was the trigger
of Stevie’s inspiration, building upon some creative ideas she
was working on.
Both the highly symbolic lyrics, dedicated to grief and sorrow,
and the composition made this song an obvious choice for
Karassimeon’s next edit

about the edit : " First of all, I always wanted to remix "Enjoy The Silence" since the day of its release. It's one of the most important songs of my life. This italo idea of a remix was playing in my head already for a few years. I started makin' it in 2019. I put first elements together, like kick, snare and bassline and then left the project for other things. 30 anniversary was a great opportunity to finally show it to the world, so I focused on this remix only on one of september's weekends and finally here it is. Enjoy."
