An edit pays tribute to the original by trimming and rearranging the song in a way that it works for today's dancefloor or listening habits. 

Delfonic and Mendel are two outspoken specialists in this and understand the edit craft like no one else. For almost twenty years, Delfonic has been running Oye Records, a record store known far beyond the city limits of Berlin, and therefore knows very well which records and tracks go down best with whom and how. 

Always on the look out for that heartfelt connection, Mendel doesn’t cater to the fist pumpers, but rather the loving, open-minded and upbeat. His sets are peppered with diverse influences, from Chicago’s (ware)house pioneers to Amsterdam’s soulful school of DJs. He carefully orchestrates dance floor experiences by selecting tunes based on the emotion they evoke. A steady flow of mixtapes and Mendel’s Melodies, his regular show on Red Light Radio, provide a platform for Mendel to share his mellower side, capturing hearts by interweaving soulful classics with silky rarities from all corners of the musical landscape.

Notes On A Journey has therefore decided to make use of the services of the two DJs and to take two songs from their own, meanwhile extensive catalog under the magnifying glass, respectively the scalpel.

On the one hand there are two new editions of Germannu's «Fale De Mim» and one edit each for «Marcação» and «Pé na Estrada» by Valéria. Four times the very finest in soulful Brazilian pop music as one is now almost used to from Notes On A Journey. 

«Fale De Mim» by Germannu, by the way, originally appeared in 1984 on the EP «Germannu» and was released in September 2020 by NOAJ as a lavish reissue. 

The 4-track 7inch «Pé na Estrada» by Valéria originally came out in 1983 on the Brazilian label PPA (Paladar Produções Artisticas) and was re-released by NOAJ in November 2020.

With «NOAJ Edits 01», a first absolute must-have edits package was put together. And as the title suggests, the series will continue in the following months with more highlights from the NOAJ catalog.

Barefoot Beats 12 - Side A - Tudo Magia - Elado [Snippet]

Summer is around the corner, and helping us usher it in with pizazz and cheer is @ray-mang. We're overjoyed; we've been close, captivated fans since the early days and have been looking for a project to slide his way since day one at LPH.

This particular journey started with a remix of SAIDÊRA's "Deixa Tudo Fluir," which LPH released earlier in the year. It's a feel-good samba song, magically both sunkissed and touched by a gentle pang of melancholia.

Mr. Mang magnified the presence of the rhythm section and imbued the whole arrangement with a playful patience, crafting a Brazilian-inflected disco jamboree that's tuned for sunset dance circles yet suited for all hands-in-the-air moments. Enjoy it alone or with groups small and large alike.

After their debut release in September 2020, Tunesday Recordings are back with their second installment, marking the reissue of two boogie funk originals from 1984 by the German band Trust. Particularly known for their song "It's Not Over", the band also recorded two wonderfully brazilian- influenced songs dubbed "Eu Melembro" and "Maracatu" which were also released on their LP "Bow Making". Moving between Funk, Boogie, Jazz and Latin, the two songs remain a trademark for the band's versatile orientation at that time. Perfectly suited for the task, Joutro Mundo, who is known for releases on Hello Sailor & Barefoot Beats among others, took on the originals to cut down his very own interpretations with modern dancefloors in mind. Many thanks to Trust for making this reissue possible and many thanks to Dayeon Auh for putting the vibe into the artwork.

Premiere | Trust - Eu Melembro (Joutro Mundo Rework) (TUNES002)

London's longest-running re-edit imprint has founders Dave Jarvis and Diesel at the controls. 
The Moton Records Inc series launched back in 1996, and – alongside edit imprints from the Idjut Boys, Harvey, and others – this label has been instrumental in shaping the leftfield Disco & Balearic re-edit scene. 

With a DJ career going back over 25 years, Marc Roberts’ sound reflects a wide range of influences and his love for all things house, techno, jazz, disco, and afro. Whether it's warming up for some of the biggest names in electronic music, or headlining shows himself, he's earned himself a reputation as a solid selector playing events globally. 
Marc Roberts curates award winning line ups for festivals and clubs worldwide, including a decade with alpine behemoth Snowbombing. Having relocated to South East Asia in 2016, he set up the Pantai People imprint during the pandemic which has released a number of very well received 12”s.

This month Moton Records enlists the expertise of Bali’s best, to take listeners on a global jaunt of musical exploration. From London to Rio via New York, and road tested on the dance floors and beaches of Bali, Marc serves up four Bintang fuelled edits, effortlessly gravitating from low-slung Balearica to hi-octane funk with a dash of Brazilian disco and pop thrown in for good measure. Marc Roberts slices and splices four beautiful cuts that that fit perfectly into the highly collectable and off centre Moton Records universe.

Digital Deadstock 016: Disc-Oh! (Party Dad Edit)

„Discovering and rediscovering music“ is NOAJ's slogan and by this credo productions and recordings (records, cassettes, never before released master tapes) from days gone by shall and will find its audience. NOAJ tells the tale of mis-launched careers, failed dreams, gutted hopes, criminally overlooked masterpieces and of music that has been probably way too ahead of its time.
