Original Mocambo 7inch release.
The 45 opens with a killer breakbeat that leads into an awesome rendition of the Meters standard (the title track of their second Josie album) with the themes being played in the street carnival sound of the West Indies, to “ease back” just a little on the flip side.
Both sides were remixed by Hawkeye and re-released on MPM 7".

Guadeloupe, Trinidad & Tobago, St. Lucia: you might be inclined to think these specks in the Lesser Antilles aren't exactly conventional outposts for quality, right? Well, think twice. Music touches all corners of the map and with some determination, you can happen upon gems from almost any time and place in human history. That open-ended, curious mentality provides sustaining fuel for all the finest diggers – and Deano Sounds of Boston is right up there with the very best of them. His label Cultures of Soul are a true office, traipsing an impressively broad landscape and picking the sweetest fruits.

We premiered a track off the first Tropical Disco Hustle and were harassing poor Jeff for the second instalment before it had even been sent for mastering, but with good reason! "Caribean People" (spelling intentional) is a super rare cut from 1980, given a lick of new paint from Parisian rework maestro Waxist Selecta, who stretches the African-lilting groove here n there, switching up tempo at will. It's gold; unsurprisingly, the entire compilation is. Cop it May 5th.

With the release of “Oba”, BBE has uncovered a rare gem. Production duo Dan Stillit and Oli Savill (collectively, Deep Tenor City) bringing together a wide group of the most accomplished (some Grammy- nominated) artists from the worlds of Jazz, Latin. Fusion, Funk and Afro-beat. “Oba”, recorded in the winter months of 2003, is a complex and percussion-rich slice of glorious afro-cuban jazz fusion, is only now seeing the light of day, having this year been given serious underground airtime and club play.

The EP also features an infectious and distinctive and remix from the mighty Opolopo and a vocal-rich deep house remix from AriesAudio (Josh Emman). Again, both tracks have been had strong early reception in the underground scene.

Rivalling their legendary output from the 70’s onwards, Brazilian jazz-funk pioneers Azymuth’s latest album Fênix saw the band on top form, with their trademark samba doido (crazy samba) sounding as slick as ever. Since then, Far Out Recordings has comissioned a special one-off remix for the project, from Chicago deep-house legend Ron Trent, who has long cited Azymuth as musical heroes and one of his biggest influences. With a toughened groove and gorgeous swirls of synth and pad embelishments, Ron’s remix takes Azymuth’s futurist disco even deeper.
