The rare Afro-Latin Funkjoint "African Fever" by the Italian duo "The Tropicals" (Giancarlo Barigozzi and Oscar Rocchi) was released as a 7inch single in 1972. 

The rework is a collaboration between Dedy Dread (Lisbon) and SoulBrigada, which was already produced back in 2016 in Zurich | Switzerland. After a few years of maturation it's finally time to release this one. Enjoy it!

The Tropicals - African Fever (SoulBrigada & Dedy Dread Rework)

From Remastered & Reissued by THE CAPTAIN on Goodgroove Records

Review:
Italian funk fiddler The Captain knows his way around a dusty old seven inch, and more importantly, how to one make into contemporary dancefloor dynamite. This long player is a compilation of some of his finest work, featuring eight cuts of serious party breaks. Highlights include the tough rolling swagger of Patti Drew's version of Otis Redding's "Hard To Handle", the breaky, electro-swing of "Shake It", the intense clap-along of "Alright Bossa" and the smile inducing Freddie Mercury goes breaky hip-house joys of "Another One Dusty Bossa".

Here is my latest free tune, complete with mastering from Scour Records and incredible blurb from the ever talented Fat Harry!

Disclaimer - Please ignore the awful riser over the main sample, It's there for legal reasons and  not in the download file!

"Free Love! What could be better? Happy Valentines to all you beautiful people, please excuse me but…. God dammit, I have a heart full of love and a pocket full of beans, sure I had a cow an hour ago but I sold it to this slightly dodgy geezer for some beans, he said they were magic, “Bang-on-triple-mental-magic-maaate!” So, in lieu of the Giant’s beanstalk growing imminently and leading me to all the gold, I might as well start giving the love away right now, because you can’t take it with you!

My next release will coincide with a business meeting I have with some dude called DJ Pinnochio, he really really likes my music, reckons he can help me out with some Souncloud plays…isn’t life amazing!"

Let's Do It

"Hello Punks..!
While playing around with my loopstation with a very old and cracky Glenn Miller record, thought that this could do a nice teaser! Something that could open a dj set with a friendly mood! just two or three loops used, some noise from the record but still audible! any ideas to build it up more are welcomed!"
cheers!!

De La Bossa (FREE DL)

TIM DOM DOM é uma canção de Codó e João Mello. Tema marcante dos anos 60, mereceu interpretação de grandes artistas como João Donato e Jorge Ben na célebre gravação de  "Samba Esquema Novo". 

A versão que editei é de João Donato, lançada em 1965 no álbum "Sambou, Sambou". Estendi a duração da faixa, rearranjando a ordem de suas partes e segmentos através de loops, cortes e sobreposições, tendo em vista uma  dança contínua e cadenciada, apropriada para pistas. No final do edit, uso um trechinho da versão de Sérgio Mendes, gravada em 1966. 

As falas são de João Donato.
