Re-Roostered EP is the finest selection of tracks from the Italian label Red Rooster Records. For who doesn’t know, Red Rooster was an “vinyl only” label headed by D’Arabia, the head honcho who showcased the local music coming out of his town, Bologna.

So for us it is a great honour to re-release these brilliant Red Rooster imprints for the first time on digital. Get ready for a funk explosion!

__________

Founded by D’Arabia in 2016, with the help of his partner Dj Rou, Red Rooster was born in Bologna and its strictly focused on utilising raw and rare samples to create deep disco, and funky house cuts; paying homage to the old grooves whilst reimagining it for newer more contemporary dance floors.

Between The Lines is an exploration of the spaces where reality and imagination blur into one another. The project blends hypnotic rhythms, soulful melodies, and vibrant percussive energy, creating a soundscape that is both intimate and expansive. Each track is designed to capture the feeling of drifting between dreams and truth — moments of vulnerability, passion, and release. With its mix of deep grooves, uplifting hooks, and immersive textures, the album offers a journey that feels timeless yet urgent, pulling listeners into a world where fantasy and reality merge on the dancefloor and beyond.

Between the Lines (House Remix)

[Verse]
Can you believe
I went through the whole summer
Without even once mowing the grass
Didn't have to touch it
And the grass is green
How did I do it
I'll tell you how
I just kept the windows closed
I just didn't go outside
That's how you get through the summer
Without mowing the grass
Just don't look at it
Just stay inside
When you go to your car
You just don't look at the grass
Just don't go in the backyard
Just don't look at it

[Prechorus]
Just mow the grass
That's what you should do
Just mow the grass
If you don't mow it
It just grows and grows
If you don't mow it
It just grows and grows

[Chorus]
So just mow the grass
Just mow the grass
If you don't mow it
It just grows and grows
Just mow the grass
Just mow the grass
If you don't mow it
It just grows and grows

Mow the Grass

For the last 12 years, the way that Detroit-based DJ Pontchartrain has approached music, is centered around two things - learning and sharing. The result has been an interesting change up from the status quo of what comes out of the motor city. Heavily funk-infused and sample-laden original productions, edits and reworks that border on brand new versions of the track, and sets that string together a wide array of sounds that all center around the idea that dancing and feeling music are the main goals.
 
What started off as a project for edits and DJ tools has turned into a rediscovery of the roots of dance music. This shift in the last few years has pushed him into the new opportunities with some of the greatest labels in disco and house realm, and interesting achievements across the globe.
 
Currently he serves as A&R for one of the most prominent edits labels in the world, Whiskey Disco, and for the house subsidiary, Lovedancing. In addition to curating these two outlets and putting out his own records on them as well, in the past few years alone he has released on over a dozen labels, including Kolour LTD, Rocksteady Disco, Delusions of Grandeur, Toy-Tonics, Soul-Clap Records, Masterworks Music and more. Output has been nothing short of consistent, hitting #1 chart positions on sites such as Juno, several times.
 
Wen it comes to performances Pontchartrain believes in the overarching goal of making people dance, and think in equal parts. From the time he brought the Detroit Children’s Choir on stage with him at Movement Festival to sing along, to the bold invocations of poetry and messages of love, the dancefloor is a temple when he’s on deck. A place to worship each other and the feeling of letting loose. Whatever sounds get you there; genre is second to the emotion.
 
Like many of the great Detroit artists he looks up to, there’s a humble blue collar aspect to his background as well. Pontch still works as a social worker directly with drug addicts getting back on their feet right here in the motor city. He volunteers with groups such as Give A Beat, LRNG, Girls Rock Detroit, local public libraries, and is now a volunteer and teacher at Spin Inc music production school. Music is truly a way of life, part of the greater idea of lifting each other up. His actions, sounds, and personality encompass this idea.
