With summer right around the corner for most of us, a fresh helping of new Disco and Funk tracks are just what the doctor ordered for your upcoming parties, day or night!
A few of this month's artists will be familiar to you. Breakbot is back with a sexy remix for Lizzo and we have a fresh cut from Midnight Pool Party, but the great thing about the disco/funk genre is that there are always new faces to keep your groove moving! Get ready to speak some French and watch out for cowbells!

The Best Disco & Funk Tracks of May 2019

tim master 2

This EP was a long time in the making. The last project completed at my Studio in Detroit before moving to NY a year ago with brother Javonntte - someone I love and respect endlessly. We laid everything down over the course of four days. We played drums together, we had homies in the studio getting down with us while ad libbing parts (you can even hear them in the background if you listen carefully). We ended up with a ton of content that I whittled down, arranged, mixed, edited, and mastered into this. The iconic Delano Smith filled in on remix duties for what was originally slated to be Mike Huckaby who had agreed to do this project just a month before his passing. Del did it justice. The stems were passed back, I mixed it down with extra moody flavor and we agreed it was perfect. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did making it. I love you Huck and I love you Eric and I'm sorry you guys couldn't see the end result.

This is out today on most major vinyl outlets. Bandcamp coming soon. Thank you for all of your continued support.

Just got the alert that this is out today on Juno. This EP was a long time in the making.

Out now on Futureboogie >> https://fanlink.to/ruffysisland

Welcome to ‘Ruffy’s Island’, the brand new interactive game that’s blowing minds from DJ, producer, record label owner, record store owner and video gamer Ruf Dug!

Futureboogie proudly partner up for the audio extravaganza. Three levels to conquer, each soundtracked by Ruf Dug’s first new music in over 3 years. The virtual journey comes complete with a bonus ‘level’ in the form of a remix from the in form Sharif Laffrey.

The wistful 16-bit funk of ‘Boat Party’ leads you through the first level, its melodic chops and jubilant mood advancing you to stage two with ease. ‘Techno Cave’ guides the shoot-em-up activities in the cave, with its bold, brassy bass, sparse synths and rapid tempo. Find the ‘Easter Egg’ that is the Sharif Laffrey ‘Nightwork Remix’ and you’ll be in for a real delight, as the Detroit mainstay ramps it up over ten tantalising minutes with a truly exceptional version.

Make it to the ‘Abandoned Pyramid’ and you’re clearly a professional. Ruf Dug leads you on a tropical excursion through this mystical land, with deft piano play and meditative pads. What lies ahead on the fourth level, we will have to wait and see......

Ruf Dug - Boat Party (Club Version) (Futureboogie)

Remix extravaganza ahead! What started as an attempt to transport Feater’s brillant outsider pop „Time Millionaire“ (taken from the Socialo Blanco album) onto a dance floor with one or two remixes, ended up as a feast served on three different platters with some heavy hitters. First up, Pépé Bradock and Ricardo Villalobos are crossing their beams. Spread over two 12“s, the masters of idiosyncrasies and splendid aural design, Bradock and Villalobos treat the voice of Vilja Larjosto with love and care and bring it into their respective universe during peak time: vocals, dubs, acapellas and bonus bits included. Expertly, tricky and inventive.
	Remix EP no. 3 merges different trajectories of UK dance music traditions (or Ireland for that matter). Man of the moment Krystal Klear takes the material down to love town: the sound of 1980s Island records meets NYC boogie and UK street soul sounds. Hessle Audio’s Pangaea follows the other path: uptempo bass fun with a driving dub and an instrumental pass. Last but not least, Feater & Sam Irl themselves deliver a blissed out dub of the original. Oh, and if you have enough time, flip over to the 10“ with an Aba Shanti-I approved UK reggae and lovers rock take on it by Blood Shanti.

Business As Usual April 2019: Luke Solomon + Special Guest JT Donaldson

The letters on the board did not make sense. They were etched in chalk with a dusty finish and a gritty sense of disparity. Ylsm was never supposed to have been as complicated as this yet here they were. It was the name appointed to the project at the start of a sequence of experiments and new life. Deep underground they had worked tirelessly to test the theory, trying to disprove the very notion that man might be able to dance amidst the moonlit sky amongst flickering stars and other worlds. It was not to be, at least not for now anyway. 

Lxury is set to self release a new EP on Extra Free, his own imprint and record label which acts as a new outlet for his own ingenuity and creativity. A rave inspired, electronic monster the EP is as fun and juicy as ever.

The third multi-artist EP from Hot Digits' occasional vinyl series, Wax Digits, is packed to the rafters with dancefloor-focused re-edits and reworks. Labor Of Love leads the way with "Move That Thang", a fine chunk of warm and bass heavy deep house/disco fusion, before Osmose steals the show with the loopy mid-tempo disco-funk bump of "Let Harry Rock". Over on Side B, The Silver Rider impresses via the swirling disco-house hypnotism of 'Groove On Down", before experienced re-editor P-Sol pairs locked-in grooves with sun-kissed disco instrumentation and heady vocal snippets on "Sturdy Disco".

Following a sold-out pressing of his debut EP, ‘A Lifetime On The Hips’, the enigmatic Demi Riquísimo is returning to his in-house imprint, Semi Delicious, ready to pick up where he left off with the aptly titled ‘Mysterious EP’, dropping 3rd May 2019.  Returning to the tried-and-tested vinyl-only release formula that saw his first EP lock in huge support from names like Optimo, Rex The Dog, Horse Meat Disco, Theo Kottis, Skream, Loods, Auntie Flo, Simian Mobile Disco and Tensnake, and even a coveted premiere on BBC Radio 1 by Pete Tong himself, the new EP further cements Demi as one of the scene’s most intriguing producers.

"All we hear is Radio Gaga" - Freddie Mercurys words should help you fully appreciate this new remix by FINAL DJS.

This remix already got support from guys like Bit Funk, Miami Nights 1984 or Lifelike to name a few.

As a nudisco veteran with massive reinterpretations of classic songs from Michael Jackson, Stevie Nicks, George Michael or Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Sebastian claims again that hes one of the best remixers for songs of the 80s out there. Space disco is the art here and while staying pretty close to the original samplewise, his interpretation is so much more than a simple edit.

Iam a big fan of Queen and had the chance to get my hands on the original studio stems of their song "Radio Gaga"some time ago. After the files rest for a few years on my hard drive, Bohemian Rhapsoy gave me the inspiration to remix this song in its full glory. And while using many parts of the original, i recreated and recut many stuff for it like the legendary bassline which sounds and plays much more for the dancefloor like before.

Lyrics:
The funk is here to stay
I’ll toast to that
It’s the Tuxedo way
I’ll toast to that

Party people here with us
I’ll toast to that
Take your cup and raise it up
I’ll toast to that

Dust your shoulders off and let your hair down
We’re gonna celebrate tonight
Everyone
I’ll toast to that

Feels like a holiday
I’ll toast to that
We’ll dance the night away
I’ll toast to that

Party people here with us
I’ll toast to that
Take your cup and raise it up
I’ll toast to that

If you’re rollin’ with the Tuxedo sound
We’re gonna celebrate tonight
Everyone

Move your feet and have a ball
Don’t be holding up the wall like a vegetable
Celebrating ‘til the dawn
I’ve been waiting all week long just to let it go

Welcome to the official Tuxedo Channel. Tuxedo is Grammy nominated renaissance man Mayer Hawthorne (Aquarius) and Grammy nominated producer Jake One (Taurus). They mysteriously showed up on Internet doorsteps in 2013. In between Mayer's solo albums, and Jake's productions for Drake, The Weeknd, J. Cole, etc., Tuxedo released their debut album and quickly became a world of its own.

The Tuxedo Way

I always enjoyed Kerri Chandler's sample of this track on his song "get out" but I also always wanted a longer version of the original with some additional flavors added. This is my take on La Pamplemousse's "Let's Make Magic"

Detroit's https://soundcloud.com/pontchartrain takes the Razor-N-Tape reigns for his debut on the label - an all-cylinders-firing jazz laden, deep house EP with an exquisite https://soundcloud.com/demuja remix.

The A side kicks off with 'The Friends & Lovers Dub' version of the title track 'Love Is Madness', filled with deep pulsing pads, resonating dashes of sax, crisp percussion and a bumping bassline that provides the perfect backdrop to the echoing mantra of 'Friends... Lovers'. 

Next 'I-80' is a wonder of shimmering arps, brooding bass tones and reverberating trumpet touches. Perfect for the early hours, entrancing dancers as it washes over the airwaves. 

On the flip, Austria's golden boy Demuja hits hard with a Kerri Chandler channeling deep house remix of 'Love Is Madness', centred around a pumping bass synth, sustained organs and a classic marriage of horn stabs and emotive spoken word. 

Closing the EP the original mix is a sun kissed, eyes closed gem that blends delicate bongos, rousing sax lines and the sweet vocals of Simon Black & Leafar.

A must for any record collection out there, house head or not.

Love Is Madness EP

Pontchartrain - Love Is Madness (The Friends & Lovers Dub)

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.
