Unlimited Touch - I Hear Music In The Streets (Angel D edit)

Released on 12" Vinyl & Digital Download

After an idyllic summer spent playing on beaches and under the stars the Retrospective camp return with Back top the 80’s Vol.1, the first official release from rising star of the edit-scene, and Warrington’s finest, 80′s Child aka Danny Worrall.

Raised by his parents on a strict diet of Toto, Prince, Michael McDonald, Hall & Oates, Michael Jackson and the like, Danny returned to those formative sounds having lost interest in the mainstream house sound in the early ‘00s.

Inspired by the productions of fellow dusty fingered archivists such as Greg Wilson, Late Nite Tuff Guy, Get Down Edits, Tiger & Woods, 78 Edits and of course Retrospective’s own Ruben & Ra, Danny’s edits have grown wilder as he’s experimented, extended and completely re-worked into some of the hottest club edits around over the past 12 months.

Having established himself on the nu-disco & edit scene, and supplied one of the standout tracks for Yam Who?’s recent Midnight Riot album, Retrospective are proud to release his first official solo release, the 4 track Back top the 80’s Vol.1 EP, a record that, as the name suggests, displays an unmistakable love for that decades brand of disco and boogie.

To be released on 12” vinyl and as two digital singles, Danny takes 4 original boogie joints and delivers them the definitive 80’s Child work-over, giving a new lease of life to both some much loved classics and some hard to find gems.

Heavy Vibes

This collection of underground dance music covers tracks released between 1975 and 1983 from both sides of the Atlantic. The tracks chosen for this compilation introduce some of the pioneering few who expanded the horizons of disco to incorporate elements of dub, funk, electro, jazz and Latin. In some ways many of the artists featured here foresaw the birth of successive musical genres. There is no disputing that they were all well ahead of their time and with the recent trend of similarly inspired house they sound as fresh today as they did then.

The music chosen for this album were the underground classics that made the scene what it was in the heady of days of the Paradise Garage and the Loft in NYC and the Warehouse in Chicago where DJs such as Arthur Baker and Francois Kervorkian could be heard spinning such tracks.

On disc two (CD version only) Masters at Work add their touches to one of their favourite tracks while Harvey and Underdog take on the Disco Dub band and come up with two very different interpretations which will work on today’s dancefloors.

What is there to be said about Ruben & Ra except these two have been lovers of boogie, disco & funk and have been keen record store diggers for too many years to count. With edits, reworks & original productions coming out of their ears, Ruben & Ra have decided to set up the Retrospective label as an output for their tracks.
