Landing back in 2020 @fsqofficial's Reprise Tonight album took 10 years to come to fruition and boy was it worth it. Featuring funk legends George Clinton & Parliament-Funkadelic, Nona Hendryx, Fonda Rae, Denise King, and Dolette McDonald it was packed with as shakin' funk and lo-fi disco.  It was a seriously limited vinyl release so if you can find one make sure you pick it up.

Now FSQ and @soulclaprecs are back with Reprise Reprise Tonight  featuring some of the hottest producers on the planet giving remixing their favourite tracks from the album. Step up Ray Mang, Michael The Lion, Birdee, Tom Moulton Dr Rubberfunk, Jitwam, DJ Rocca and Charlie Soul Clap.

Our premier from the album today see's Michael the Lion (@djaptone) deliver a deep dirty disco groove extraordinaire on his take of Vibe Out Now replete with sultry spoken female vocals and a filthy guitar solo which steals the show here. Check it out here and jump over to LV online for more on the release via: https://levisiteuronline.com/music/fsq-michael-the-lion-soul-clap-records/

SCR Exclusive: You're Gonna Be Mine (Charlie Soul Clap & A-Rock Edit)

Out Now: https://lnk.to/CRM283

Electronic group Pale Blue returns to Damian Lazarus' label Crosstown Rebels. Dive stems from the pair's upcoming album on the imprint, which will drop next year. Remixes from Fort Romeau and Rebolledo feature on the EP, adding another layer to the shoegaze-tinged tune. 

Mike Simonetti talks about the theme of the track. "'Dive' is a breakup song. It's about when the person you are living with becomes a stranger," he says. "Musically, 'Dive' is an experiment in polyrhythms and textures; the music has a lot of movement, yet Elizabeth's vocals are stoic throughout. The music represents the chaos of the relationship, and her voice is the calm realization of self." The title track opens with Elizabeth's soft vocals and a dreamy synthline, evoking a hazy but potent soundscape. On Fort Romeau's remix, the Oxfordshire native offers a Tranceadelic Mix of the track, combining tribal-flecked percussion with an understated bassline, allowing Elizabeth's lyrics to dominate the atmosphere. Rebolledo pens an acid melody and transposes Elizabeth's vocals to an alien-like pitch—perfect for a tripped-out listen. 

Jersey-born Mike Simonetti is one half of the musical group Pale Blue and the founder of labels Troubleman, Italians Do It Better and 2MR. With over two decades of experience working as a producer and DJ, Mike has released disparate sounds on Crosstown Rebels, Correspondent and several more, building the reputation of a versatile artist who avoids the limelight and instead focuses on making dance music with depth. In 2020, Pale Blue’s track I Walk Alone With Acid landed in Pitchfork’s The 30 Best Electronic Music Releases of 2020 and The 100 Best Songs of 2020. US-born Elizabeth Wight is a vocalist and the other half of Pale Blue. No matter the project she's working on, her vocals add different layers to electronic music, creating a signature mood that only she knows how. I Walk Alone With Acid remains one of the most striking records in her evolving discography. UK-born Fort Romeau merges the tones of house, kraut, ambient, disco, and techno across his work, releasing on Permanent Vacation, Mesh and more. His album Beings of Light dropped on Ghostly International earlier this year, affirming his status as an innovative artist. Mexican DJ and producer Rebolledo is one-half of the electronic duo Pachanga Boys, but as a solo artist, his sound bounces between sun-kissed house and strutting disco. Tracks on Correspondent and Hippie Dance highlight his boundless approach as a producer.

Revisiting a Rhye classic from their chart-topping album ‘Blood,’ label family member and leading creative Haider Uppal takes a floaty house approach by retouching Poolside’s warm Nu Disco remix.

Haider artfully plays with the rhythm, chords and nostalgic vocals making this a particularly special moment for the dance floor and beyond.

NYC leftfield disco darlings Phenomenal Handclap Band made their first appearance on RNT by way of a collab with JKriv in 2022, and now they return for an offering all their own, the Burning Bridges EP. The title track is a groundbreaking hypnotic post-disco pop gem, and Prins Thomas turns the tempo knob up a few clicks and launches into an extended interstellar  excursion with his remix. On the B side the cinematic slow burner ‘It Was The Summer’ begins sparse and hazy and builds to a driving peak of backbeat rhythm and an insistent vocal soliloquy. Each Other (Justin Strauss & Max Pask) then take the tune straight to the rave with arpeggiated and acidic synths, recasting the haunting vocals as a modern New Wave anthem.

Here's our take on Hanni's "Two Brothers." We recorded it at our studio in Brooklyn and centered it around a chugging clav,  stomping live drums, and a syncopated horn line played by our friend Jonathan Powell. Hope you enjoy it as much we enjoyed making it :-)

Sir Own - Hooked (Kon's Nite Time Remix)

Four floaty dubs & re-rubs from San Francisco's Ryan Bishop aka The Beat Broker (Bear Funk, Flexx, Adult Contemporary, etc).  Many heads probably best know Ryan as the brains behind DREAM CHIMNEY, one of the longest-running and most consistently interesting online hangouts for like-minded music freaks.

This 12" busts loose with "Satin Kimono," a funky floor-filler with the most perfect AOR song title in existence. "Make It Happen" cools the A-side down with a mellow yet uplifting soft rock groover; dubby voices beckon the listener to break free and never look back.

"Honey It's You" is a pumped up edit of an old 'Chimney classic and was crafted specifically as a wedding gift for fellow Dream Chimney member Hatchback - now available for the first time in a physical format!  "Larceny Dub" soars to new heights of AOR bliss, featuring an extensive re-working of a record that was passed along to Ryan by an ex-Deadhead neighbor.
