If you were to think say that Flamingo Pier have become stalwarts of Soundway Records as of late, then you would be absolutely correct. The New Zealand based collective of Dominic, Brad and Luke have developed a blossoming relationship with the label  since the release of their self titled ‘Flamingo EP’ back in 2019. Fast-forward 2 years; having navigated through the midst of a global pandemic, the trio are now set to release their debut album ‘Flamingo Pier LP’. This long-play encapsulates the unique sound that the trio have established over the past few years that has come to incorporate elements of funk, disco, and jazz, all built around Afro-centric percussive elements.



Deeper Soul is somewhat of a departure from the upfront, cut-loose dancefloor vibe that harnesses the majority of this album. Staying true to its name; ‘Deeper Soul’ has its foundations in a substantially more downtempo, stripped back approach. It’s psychedelic influence hides in plain sight, organic afro-inspired percussion underpinning the calming synth top-lines that gently meander throughout courtesy of an abundance of reverb, delay, and modulation; whilst the hypnotic, funk-laden baseline injects a feeling of nostalgia that supplements the overall groove in beautiful fashion. It’s hard to pull yourself out of the time-warp of yesteryear after listening to this one!

PREMIERE: Flamingo Pier - Deeper Soul

'New to the fold, on-the-rise French producer Georges brings his organic, smooth swing science to Boogie Angst with the luscious funk and disco sounds of “Sights” - after his remix for Kraak & Smaak’s ‘Naked’ earlier this year, his debut four-tracker for the label.
 
A lushly positive retribution to your good deeds, syncopated jazz-funk opener “Karma” lays down a gleeful blend of honey-dripping piano stabs, aerily abstract vocal lines and Blaxploitation'd slap bass. A slo-running laid-back churner that knows how to bite when needed. Moving from a smokey bop kind of ambience to straight out sparkling disco anthemicness, “Back To FM” has us surfing choppy whorls of rip-roaring trumpets, mangled vox and bass-heavy onslaughts from below. 
 
Nurtured on a smoothly infectious mix of piano-strewn melody, suave croon and filtered house loops a la Roulé,  Georges’ earlier released single and key tune “Now You’re Gone", featuring Dubliner Stee Downes on vocal duty (especially known for his Lovebirds classic “I Want You In My Soul) beams empowering dynamics adorned with a lusciously sleek sound design and no-nonsense late 70s disco swing, perfectly at home in both the DJ booth or in the comfort of your home for a heated boogie-down with your loved one. Stripped back of the lead vocal, the final dub version offers new options to jockeys in search of bespoke floor efficiency. '

Premiere: Georges - Karma [Boogie Angst]

'Around the Bend' is soft rock for hard times brought to you by Universal Cave. Bongos high in the mix, a breezy beginning builds towards guitar glistening over a mega kind groove. A tune fit for hang gliders, rock climbers, and summer Sundays. Sunsets and sailboats. Slow grooves for mellow moods. Side B's 'Riding' is flipside meets ripside, no nonsense shredding over a driving drum beat. Long haired beardo disco rock that never quits.

Around The Bend (Universal Cave Edit)

Our Fate

For his latest release, "Dirt Crew" and "Quintessentials" favorite Ponty Mython has linked up with Washington, DC-based imprint "Better Listen" for a five track package of globally inspired groovers. The "House for Sale EP" maintains the sample-based production aesthetic of Better Listen’s debut record, and draws heavily from rare African funk and disco sources. The Vilnius-based producer’s trademark eclecticism is injected throughout the record, with the A-side leaning more towards wonky, left-field house cuts and the flip hosting more disco-like arrangements.

Since making their debut on Mark Barrott’s acclaimed International Feel label back in 2015, Private Agenda has delivered a handful of releases suitable for sunset and sunrise. Now, the Berlin-based duo has gone one further with a conceptual single for NuNorthern Soul that brilliantly pays tribute to nightfall and daybreak. 

Dusk & Dawn is a deep sonic exploration that pays closer attention to ambience and sound design by Private Agenda. Remixes come from British veterans Faze Action and longstanding solo alias of Crazy P, Ron Basejam and ESP Institute regular Ian Blevins.

Featuring some of the finest tracks of the year, the compilation is packed with sun-kissed, groove-filled tunes that provide you with a never-ending summer feeling. Fueling many blissful joyrides at no cost and free download as always. 
Now, LAGASTA is proud to present something new and special in the form of a double-vinyl album. A tangible compilation series, entitled "Last Gas Station", which is compiled with only exclusive tracks.

It also marks the launch of our exciting new label, LAGASTA Records.
The collection's opening track is a sunshine-filled slice of daytime disco from LA's duo Poolside recent album "Heat", which is remix by Baio, aka Vampire Weekend's bassist Chris Baio. Next one is Crew Love’s David Marston, who teams up with Dan Izco for a blissful ride. Mexico's finest Zombies in Miami deliver a dancefloor odyssey in the form of "Temple of Love", while Italian duo Marvin & Guy drop an epic slow-burner called "Asbek". 
DFA’s Greek mastermind Larry Gus  never ceases  to amaze us with yet another example of what he does best, followed by “Charlie Rose”, a classy, club-ready track from Brooklyn's duo Vito & Druzzi, aka Vito Roccoforte and Gabriel “Druzzi” Andruzzi, best known for being the drummer and multi-instrumentalist of DFA’s The Rapture.  Next up, Adelaide-based producer James Curd and Turbotito, aka Los Angeles producer Filip Nikolic of Poolside, have joined forces once again for a new collaborative tune “Lost" filled with warm grooves and melancholic synths, followed by our favorite NY unstoppable disco funkers Midnight Magic with their infectious track "Through The Motions" of pure disco glory. 
Woolfy Vs Projections, the duo of California-based musicians Simon “Woolfy” James and Dan Hastie, keep the summer vibes going with their track "Your Past Behind", a quality example of the signature sound.  Disco Halal’s Moscoman teams up with MoRayon for an extra dose of lush vibes on “Play No Game". LA's Daniel T. takes us for a ride with "Moonlight Bounce", a perfectly crafted tune full of melodic soundscapes, while Peaking Lights Acid Test, the live instrumental disco project of APC (Aaron Coyes of Peaking Lights) closes the compilation in the best way possible with a gorgeous slice of synth rhythm heaven.
