Welcome Back, friends, to the Yacht Soul cruise that never ends!
This theme, explored at length in the previous installment of this series, is a fertile one that just keeps on giving, and give it certainly does on the tracks we have dug up for your perusal, enlightenment, edification and enjoyment on Volume 2.

For those just joining us, the concept here concerns R&B and soul artists mining the songbooks of their white contemporaries for cover versions that serve the dual purposes of potentially garnering some crossover radio airplay as well as introducing great songs to segments of the listening public who might otherwise miss them. Some of these versions might have come about because they were personal favorites of the artist in question, others might have been strongly suggested by their labels or by the publishing company, but all of them provide an entirely new perspective on what were already fantastic songs to begin with.

So there you have it--a further dig into this nebulous concept that reveals more unexpected connections and crossed paths. Understanding the hows and whys of the way these particular covers and collaborations came to be is as fascinating as just enjoying the music itself, and there really is a lot of great music to dig into this time around! We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did putting it together.

HouseBound - 8th May 2024 .. Ft. Uptown Funk

LIVE recording of my House & Disco DJ set from DiscoTech at Albert's Shed Telford on Sat 26th May 2024..!

Jet Boot Jack LIVE! @ DiscoTech (Telford) 26th May 2024

I was visiting a friend in Swedish this week, and Greg was cruising the highways in California. So our good friend Discoholic Ken took control of the decks for a fabulously funky live broadcast. 

The guest for the second hour was Sideways Shane, a talented DJ from Down Under whose music caught my ears when he was a guest DJ on Wilson Frisk's excellent Housebound Show. Shane releases regular mixes on his soundcloud page and I highly recommend giving him a follow. 

** SIDEWAYS SHANE BIO **
Sideways Shane is a Perth-based DJ whose love of music has been a lifelong passion. Growing up in a household where music was playing from dawn til dusk, whether it was Rock’n’Roll, Northern Soul, Disco, Motown and everything in between, heI was exposed to it and loved every bit of it. His big love in the 90’s was R’n’B - Hip Hop with house music being a natural progression. Been lucky to have played gigs @ Perths longest running club Geisha, RTRFM Looney Choons Show, Seabreeze Promotions, Little Stiller, Boat Parties, Pirates Of Perth & more. Still loving all those genres and mixing them has never grown old and the passion keeps growing so if you love music as much as he does, jump on board and enjoy.

Feelings Up And Down

If ever there was someone who the phrase “How does he find time to make that?” was about, serial editor and remixer Pete Le Freq is it. His reworks have been played on BBC Radio 6 regularly by Craig Charles, and DJs the world over, and the sheer number of tracks he produces have caused people to suggest he doesn't sleep much.

Pete started producing over 12 years ago, and made a bit of noise with his house label Llama Farm Recordings. He's been remixed by Jay-J, Eric Kupper and Kenny Summit, appeared on compilations with Joey Negro and LCD Soundsystem, and played alongside  the likes of Crazy P, Inland Knights, CagedBaby and a few others. 

Since discovering the things he was sampling were better than the things he was making, Pete found that retouching and reworking the originals gave him his producing mojo back, and soon after Alpaca Edits was born. 

The York based edits label has since become home to disco superstars such as Dr Packer, Chuggin Edits, and Mannix. He’s been resident DJ at Sotano in York for the last 7 years, and this has fuelled his productions to greater heights. He’s known for playing 5 hour sets that incorporate both his new productions and others versions of serious disco action.

2019 has seen Pete get a vinyl release alongside the likes of Fingerman, Al Kent and Sleazy McQueen on Samosa Recordings, produce remixes for the likes of Hot Digits and Midnight Riot, as well as having 4 eps of his reworks on his own Alpaca Edits. He’s also debuted at Tramlines Festival in Sheffield, and made a return to rock the Toil Trees stage at Beatherder for the second year running. 

November saw him support Michael Gray and Fingerman at Distrikt in Leeds and Derek Kaye in York. The year ended with him beating the likes of Mousse T and Ray Mang in the Traxsource Nu-Disco Top 100 Artists of the year. 

Lockdown saw Pete go into rework overdrive, running a weekly Thursday night stream, as well as starting a regular show on Street Sounds Radio. He also worked with Ashley Slater of Freak Power on some original tracks.

2021 has seen the return of Pete’s That Needs An Edit nights in York, and will culminate in December with a guest slot from Shaka Loves You.
Roll on 2022!
