"Two delightfully contrasting sides from respected editing/mastering troupe Ebony Cuts. "Carrie On" is all about the sweet cascading vibraphone riff that spirals further and further into the dancefloor over a mildly chugging beat, broken only by even sweeter pianos. "Oba Chule" is a much headier affair; loaded with African percussion, densely over-layered with exciting rhythmic switches and folk chants, it's all tied together with a persistent kick drum. Meltdown."

- Juno Records

"Hamburg's mastering maestro and edit extraordinaire returns to Kojak Giant Sounds, following up his 2013 Roy Ayres edit with this swinging two tracker of groove based delights. On the A-side "Carrie On" bursts out the blocks with tough additional drums and a replayed buzzing synth bassline before settling into a swinging jazz influenced groove complete with rasping sax, off kilter piano chords and warm vibraphone licks. Perfect for the warm up, cool down or simply to switch things up a little, this cut perfectly marries the club friendly bottom end thump with sophisticated melodies. On the B-side, the title track plunges us into the psychedelic swirl of an ancient tribal ritual. Ever changing polyrhythms bump, thump and rattle and the additional synth bass throbs through the subs, feeding the dancefloor frenzy while raucous brass and group vocal chants put you slap bang in the middle of the action. Top notch!"

Complementing their eponymous party series, Luv Shack Records have brought together
a group of new and regular artists for their first "Shack Your Body" compilation. With an array of nine choice cuts, this compilation offers just the right blend of laid back chuggers, disco stompers and more aggressive house tracks that have made their label nights so popular.

Kicking things off, the young viennese newcomer Giuseppe Leonardi brings together light hearted chicago house vibes and modern beatdown on "It's Drivin' Me". 

On "Got It", Space Echo take us back to the halcyon days of disco, striking a similar note to their smash hit Soul Power, albeit this track being a bit more stripped down and synth infused.

"Another Bite (Dub Mix)" marks the first appearance of Redscape - a collaboration between Functionist and MOTSA. In an effort to channel the funkier side of house, the two producers combine classic rhodes, moog bass and an array of disco samples in a fashion that will inevitably tingle your toes.

Burnin' Tears are bringing their sound to a new level with "Nights Of Horror". The track builds on a solidly organic drum groove and a relentless electric bass to become a funky yet hypnotic piece of dub house, jamaican soundbits and church organs included! 

LeSale takes an unusually sombre and hypnotic route with his contribution "Phantom Vibes". This one is all about the swirling hihats carrying the groove, with wailing strings and a ballsy synth bass setting the tone afterwards.

The norwegian producer and Full Pupp contributor Jarle Bråthen drops an "Italo Mullet", and nomen est omen! Full on 707 drum action meets synthbass, weird leads and angelic strings.

ROTCIV continues to explore an acid tingled house style with "Dream In Silence". Whilst building around the classic main acid ingredients, the track still obtains a great melodic quality and versatility that has become a characteristic of Brazilian producer ROTCIV.

The last new addition to the Luv Shack roster is the Berliner and Renate Schallplatten mastermind Sebastian Voigt. His "Smoke And Mirrors" intertwines industrial harshness with an 8bit synth theme and John Carpenter-esque pad and arpeggio themes. 

The final track sees Jakobin & Domino return to their home stable with a moody stunner of a house track. "Retronome" is a laid back and dreamy ride packed with warm pads, silk y strings and an irresistible vocal theme.

RELEASE DATE: 12th Feb 2016

The Mexican collective Future Feelings crew of Fernando Dimare, Juan Soto (an existing Nang warrior), Thomass Jackson and Dan Solo are back. The talented foursome follow up their "Downtown Girl" debut with the second single from their eponymous album.  "Find Out" has alterady featured on the Beach Disco 6 compilation and here we are pleased to be presenting it in all its remixed glory.

"Find Out" is all about a locked on slap bass and plucked electric guitar combo groove.  This track has funk and swing in the bucket loads.  Add in some darting female top line and the recipe is set for groove.  The original version gets a 12” extended remix version for the opener before London based Pete Herbert delivers the first of the remixes.  He keeps the stabby grooves forefront but takes things into cowbell and synthbass floor territory.

Russian Sofatalk is next up with his electronic and synthy soundscape before Serj V zooms in on the darting picked guitar and warm analog bass grooves.  Italian Disco Volante pairing Irregular Disco Workers give us some more floor led beats before Pete Herbert finishes off in dub territory.

The debut album from Future Feelings is also out on Nang.

Situation - Simple Pleasures (128)

Anyone who has spent hours, days, years working in a studio writing and producing music will be familiar with this situation. On a whim, you open up ancient folders on an old hard drive and lo and behold, you discover entire, finished songs you had practically forgotten existed.

On this occasion, I've just stumbled upon an alternate version of "Welcome To The Casbah" featuring Prince Po. It originally came out on my second album, Pushin Forty (https://www.discogs.com/Casbah-73-Pushin40/master/504246), which came out way back when (or, nearly 10 years ago, to be precise).  

The og version is completely different, you can check it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVxKcI-cnwc

 ...this one is less sample-based and features me on Fender bass & Strat grooving in a kinda latin-funk-disco sort of vein. It was finished but was never intended for the album - I stand behind the original 100 percent - but I think it's a cool tune and I'm happy to offer it here for free, for your pleasure.

Declassified: Remixes

Stereo Tonic (Boca 45 Remix)

SoulSeduction - Dub Disco Blues

"The label with the giant sound is back for release number fifteen, Kojak's the name and edits are the game. Having previously played host to the likes of Nicholas, Maxxi Soundsystem and Al Kent, DJ Ionik's imprint has developed a pedigree for classy edits by players at the top of the game. For release number fifteen Ebony Cuts rolls up to the party, adjusts his tie and puts the champagne on ice. 

Up first under the scalpel is Jesse Gould's "Out of Work", an uptempo disco funk track with filtered guitar matched by a bouncing bassline.  This is one of those bumping disco funk tracks for peak time enjoyment. Ebony Cuts has stitched the vocal and instrumental versions from the original P&P release together and come out of it with a raw funk bomb. Samples are slightly off and bass drums double over each other, but I don't care and neither does Ebony Cuts. A wild disco edit that can hide a shoddy mix, perfect.

On the flipside Ebony Cuts extends Roy Ayers' "Can't You See Me" into a finger clicking, shoulder popping groovathon. Thanks to a subtle restructure of the track, the smooth jazz funk of the original is given some extra dancefloor dynamics, with each instrumental break looped up for full impact. This is the classiest of cocktail disco, the kind of track Dimitri plays while he sips on a white russian."

- Piccadilly Records

"Hot new Kojak Giant Sounds release! These never hang around long and there’s no repress!"

- Rush Hour

"Two Ebony Cuts edits /reworks - Jesse Gold's killer P&P driving boogie disco groover gets its beef chunked up , flip for Roy Ayers - 'Can't You See Me' with a more percussive backing groove!"

- Vinyl Underground

"名作エディット２連発！！Al KentやKool DJ Dust、Nicholasも作品を残すフィンランドの人気ディスコ/エディット・レーベルKojak Giant Soundsから待望のニュー・シングルが到着！！今回は、1977年にJesse Gouldが名門P&P Recordsから放った名作「Out Of Work」と、近頃再発もされたキング・オブ・ヴァイブスこと大御所Roy Ayersが1978年にリリースしたガラージ/ダンス・クラシックス「Can't You See Me」を、Tropical TreatsやSelfmade Millionaire名義でもお馴染みのハンブルグのネタ師Ebony Cutsがエディットしてしまった要注意な一枚！！オリジナルの雰囲気をダイレクトに伝えてくれると共に、フロアでの機能性も重視された激キラーなエディットが施された問答無用の仕上がり！！ネタがネタだけにフロアを大爆発させてくれること間違いなしの一枚です！！！！"

- Technique

"オープニングのドラム・ブレイクを引き延ばし、中盤のインストパート→フック→本編と絶妙に再構築されたRoy Ayres「Can't You See Me」のエディットが最高！！

フィンランドのDJ Ionikが主宰するオブスキュア・エディット・レーベル【Kojak Giant Sound】の15作目は、あのSelfmade Millionaireを手掛けていたハンブルグのディスコ・フリークEbony Cutsによる2トラックEdit！

何と言っても注目したいのが「Roy Ayers / Can't You See Me」のエディットとなるB「Can't You See Me (Ebony Cuts Edits)」。原曲ではドラムブレイクから本編へとすぐに入っていくため、殆どの場合クイック・ミックスする事が多かったのですが、このエディットではブレイクが引き延ばされ、しかもそこから中盤のヴァイブ＆スキャット・ソロに至るインストパートを用意し、ループと再構築を交えて、ジワジワとしたビルドアップ感を携えて本編へと持っていけるという抜群の仕上がり！そしてAサイドには、Billy Nicholas手掛けた【P&P】産のブギー/ディスコ・ナンバーJesse Gould「Out Of Work」のエディットで、こちらもインストパートを主軸に、そのドライブ感のあるブラック・ディスコ・サウンドを構築していた、こちらも素晴しい仕上がり。オススメです！"
