The Groovy List #22

dancefloor

he Neovinyl boys ready the 84th record in their catalog with another artist EP from @Carlothings, one of the label co-founders. He’s been on the rise lately, releasing fantastic projects and singles via SUOL, Laggafe Tales, Organic Downbeat, and most recently, Beste Modus.

Carlo's turned up the energy on this EP, and the three soulful house cuts are a welcome change of pace from his other, more relaxed projects. Once again, impeccable sampling and drum programming shine through on each track, and fans of Carlo’s music will be pleased to hear his signature Berlin influenced sound on each of the EP’s tracks.

Happiness pervades the entirety of “Little Talks,” and it’s obvious that newfound fatherhood looks good on Carlo. Track one sees him working again with collaborator Nikoss, who’s piano work sits perfectly within a jackin’ tune full of funk bass, deep pads, and swirling strings. Carlo finds the perfect loop on track two, filtering it in and out to highlight a soulful vocal that rips over dusty, organic percussion. The project’s closer is a transportive affair through vintage jazz sounds. It’s a deeper, quirkier affair that seems to be perfect closing track for another standout effort from, Carlo.

13th Hour Records presents its debut EP: a four track V/A celebrating both the pulse of the late-night dancefloor and the starry-eyed ride home. Two tracks from Subjoi forge the A-side, the vibrant yet moody “Make Me” taking the A1 slot and spacy, hi-hat bonanza “Doin’ Fine” at A2. And influenced by the bass-heavy vibrato of 70s funk, Ricky Razu kicks off the B-side with the infinitely groovable “Reaching Out,” followed by the sultry cut “Moonlight Jam” to close out the album.

Premiere: Felipe Gordon 'Downloaded For Moodymann'

Get ready for some Ham & Eggs coming at ya! Miami label @nightyoung have snagged the next EP by @felipe-gordon and he's bringing his Moog. Some key quotes from Richard Pryor overlay an arsenal of synths in the shape of sustained pads, LFO'd chords and jazzy modulated leads expertly finessed by pal @mangabey-1. Not forgetting the swung-to-death drums Felipe likes to throw down and you got yourself a sparkling beast right here.

Downloaded for Moodyman

SB PREMIERE: Felipe Gordon - Don't Mess With My Moog ft. Mangabey [Night Young]

Our Mexican brother for the second time on Disco Fruit. Hotmood continues to give fantastic jazzy, funky, afro and disco groove blended with house elements on each release. We can say...his style is now recognizable. Tropical EP with 4 tracks for everyone's taste, similar to the first one EP, called 'Mr Funkyman'. Enjoy !

FF004 | Magic Soul Orchestra | Ultra Lights | Out 08.10.2018

1 Behind the Plexi
2 Tonite Is the Nite
3 Motionless
4 The Head
5 Ultra Lights
6 Sugar Jungle
7 How Much Are We?

This album was one of many unfinished, unreleased or simply forgotten projects that we discovered, while having a look in Alex Krugers’ archives. We found various folders full of work in progress as well as ‘almost finished’ space disco and easy listening material of Alex teaming up with his old buddy Per Fourier, known to some from Alex's earlier work as Dub Taylor.

These recordings were made during summer 2004 and spring 2005 in Berlin, most of the work never saw the light or better, the ear in the end. There was simply not enough time to finish it and Per had to leave Berlin for work at some point. However, two out of these seven songs have been released. There was a small amount of a 12” called MSO ’Jam 2006 Ep’ out on Komfort Music, which included early versions of ‘Motionless’ and ‘The Head’ the same year the Ep title suggests.

On the vocal side ‘Behind The Plexi’, ’Tonite Is The Nite’, ‘Motionless’ and ‘Ultra Lights’ are a wild melange of both Alex and Pers musical history, including early 80s Space Disco and New Wave, Vocal Pop and Synth Pop, all in classic extended, night club friendly arrangements while ’Sugar Jungle’ has more of a 70’s-Disco-Appeal, a soulful and very stripped down Lonnie Liston Smith married to…say, a very stomping Gene Page. Per played the Bass Guitars and did the Singing while Alex was dealing with Guitars, Vocoders, Drums, Samples and Synths. The other two are Instrumental works, ‘How Much Are We?’ would be best described as a spooky late 80s-influenced Dub Version of a forgotten Disco song with a quarter shot of (without wanting to compare) Czukay, Wobble & Liebezeit. It’s pretty cool & minimal too. The only ‘downbeat’ tune, ’The Head’ introduces a different shade, highlighting on how much fun Alex and Per had in the studio bending the samples that led to this result.
 
As mentioned, when we discovered these songs in the depths of an old hard drive some were not yet finished and the overall sound quality was far from being perfect, these were just recordings with half-baked arrangements. We decided to let Alex’s long time compagnon Jan Gabler look over the original parts, finish what’s to be finished, delete what’s to be deleted and add what needs to be added to make these as best sounding and best arranged as he could without changing the initial idea and flow of the work.
 
The result, we feel is surprisingly timeless and beautiful and we hope you like it as much as we do. Mastered by Salz Mastering.  Photography by Christophe Mauberqué - www.christophemauberque.com

London powerhouse Slothboogie is gearing up to drop the fourth installment in their SBEDITZ series, this time with an EP of slammers from international man of mystery, Joe Cleen. This time around, the Berlin based producer has delivered four raw and ready cuts in various styles. We’ve got serious disco heat (one soaked in 80’s nightclub neon), a glorious piano jam laced with dubbed out gospel vocals, shuffling drum machine hats and a pimped out G-Funk synth, and ‘​The Fun Part​’, a bubblin’ bass funk groover filled with crisp percussion and jazzy Rhodes.

‘Give You All I Got’ is the perfect opening track for an amazingly cohesive project, a certified disco monster with infectious brass, erotic vocals and huge space toms reworked to launch any dancefloor into the stratosphere! Steadily swung percussion rides nicely in front of a fat bottomed bassline, while Joe takes us to church with a sensual vocal that glides smoothly over the instrumental. ‘Give You All I Got’ keeps the energy contained, and it moves through four minutes with a graceful swagger that’ll surely capture the attention of eager dancers. Honestly, I just watched the new Quincy Jones documentary on Netflix and this EP sounds like something he’d like. That’s saying a lot.

Slothboogie SBEDITZ004 will be available on October 26th, and you’d be wise to set an alert because the project is limited to 500 copies. This is a vinyl only release, so if you don’t spin records, now is the time to practice (it’s great fun, trust me). You’d be dumb not to have this one in your bag, so do your best to be one of 500.

LÜÜD004 V/A EP (Promos)

PREMIERE: Lastvuska - Crimée [Lüüd Discs]

“Someone Else”, I guess is a dust clearing moment. It will probably make more sense in the context of more of my upcoming music, but I suppose this impressionistic piece is really the summation of my interest in indie music (whatever that means) and electronic music (whatever that means also).

The Neovinyl boys ready the 84th record in their catalog with another artist EP from @Carlothings, one of the label co-founders. He’s been on the rise lately, releasing fantastic projects and singles via SUOL, Laggafe Tales, Organic Downbeat, and most recently, Beste Modus.
