For its 11th release Jerry Bouthier’s imprint Continental is feeling soulful by hooking up with Canada’s Cyclist who delivers torrid new single ‘Shine’ featuring Maiko Watson on vocals.

New Torontonian-via-Vancouver-via-Winnipeg, Mark ‘Cyclist’ Penner has been a fixture in Canada's live funk scene for years as part of  impressive live dance outfit Moses Mayes. Enamoured with the post-disco, electronic paths dance music took in the early 80s - electro funk, proto-house etc - it was only a matter of time before Penner would catch the dancefloor bug and turn his ample production skills and musicianship to his solo project Cyclist.

With internationally acclaimed releases on Homebreakin' and Punchout! not mentioning an array of remixes – including his rendition (with buddy Pat Lok) of The Rapture’s "How Deep is Your Love" voted winner of a DFA remix competition by the band itself and an inspired indie-dance take on Shindu ‘Just Go’ for Continental) - Cyclist is soon growing into an important producer. His impeccable references by no means tying him up to models but on the contrary inspiring him to continuously push things further.

‘Shine’ sweats and drips like a block party jam on a hot New York day, D-Train and Tom Tom Club lost on the Paradise Garage’s dancefloor…  phat chunky beats, swirling skippy keyboards and guest singer/songwriter Maiko Watson (also Canadian, with an enviable solo career) belts out her gut-wrenching delivery with as much conviction as yesterday’s legends Gwen Guithrie or Chaka Khan. Yes ‘Shine’ is electronic soul that rocks.

Remix-wise, an imposing cast has got down to business with this little gem of a song. One of Sweden’s finest exports Drop Out Orchestra plug the vocoder and stay faithful to the original while opting for a more big room angle. Next, relying on his trademark  spaced-out synths, live bass and perc, New York’s far-out groover Lou Teti lets wild on the pitchbend and expertly dubs things out. Completing the package, Chicago’s Rogue Vogue gives ‘Shine’ a rugged, jackin’ house make-over complete with tasty pianos. Beware this could be the release’s dark horse.

Our remix of Ronika's Wiyoo, in all its swinging glory ☮

'Erotica' is a very underrated Madonna album. It's one of my favourites by her with this song being the one I've listened to the most. Vocal was a bit artifacted but I tried to clean it up as best I could. Track is not being monetized.

Madonna - Where Life Begins (MJB:217 EO Remix)

Romuald & Madji’k - Fastlane (CONTINENTAL 023)
RELEASE DATE 11th September '15
1. Fastlane (The Bastian Belde Ballad) (3’00)
2. Fastlane (Mighty Mouse remix) (5’22)
3. Fastlane (Marcus Harris remix) (6’39)
4. Fastlane (Final DJs remix) (5’21)

Here’s the second EP of ‘Fastlane’, one of the summer’s party starters courtesy of two pillars of the French scene Romuald & Madji’k AKA The Spimes (R.I.P.).

An unstoppable funky disco thumper in its original version, ‘Fastlane’ turns here into a widescreen FM ballad produced with close collaborator Bastian Belde. Then on the remix front, the ubiquitous Mighty Mouse strips things down tastefully without losing groove, nor punch. London’s White Heat resident Marcus Harris turns out a dubbed out re-interpretation nodding at the 80s’ discerning NYC dancefloors. Lastly Stuttgart’s Final DJs fuse classic house and pumping disco with savoir faire.

A true soul man and a gentleman, not far off being a living legend, Romuald has been an active singer/songwriter/producer on the Parisian scene for well over a decade, not mentioning several NYC escapades that led him to develop songs for 50 Cent, Kelly Rowland, Keri Hilson… and heavyweight hitmakers The Clutch. Romuald co-wrote and featured on many projects, from The Paradise’s French Touch classic ‘In Love With You’ with Alan Braxe, to Ernest St Laurent, Mr Gonzo… He even shyly kicked off a solo career in the very early days of Kitsuné.
Madji’k, the musician/composer from down south (Toulouse), is another familiar virtuoso born in Funky Town. After catching the rave bug in the 90s, he started to write tracks and hasn’t stopped producing since, having released singles on Diamond Traxx, 20,000 ST, Fantômas, Nervous, Henry Street, Fogbank, Deeptown, Tallhouse…

The two comperes, under their The Spimes moniker, were first spotted in 2013 when they joined forces with Alan Braxe and released the ‘Time Machine’ EP together (which held on the flip rare emotional gem ‘One More Chance’).  
Here they’re at it again with ‘Fastlane’, a brand new addictive disco cut lifted straight outta NY’s Studio 54 and of course led by Romuald’s golden voice and luxurious vocal arrangements (he performs all vocal parts).

Romeo
I love him
Y'all already know
we're super star crossed dark souls in
love with each other
how mai 'posed to love another
love takes its toll 
sometimes love takes its toll i
hold on tite

when i scream
where for art thou romeo?
it's been a min since you been at my window
wisperin sonets softly as the wind blows
hold on tite
and don't let go
when i scream 
where for art thou romeo 
it's been a min since you been at my window
whisperin sonets softly as the wind blows
