Open Destiny (Grace's Song)

Dan Tenor - City & Tom Funk - Open Destiny (Grace's Song) Ft Alaire

The prolific Manuel Costela has worked in a range of house and disco styles over the years, but this three-tracker for Bengoa's Athens-based B2 Recordings finds him firmly in deep house mode. Opener 'Unpleasant Dreams' is a suitably drifty and abstract affair, albeit still underpinned by a hefty 4/4 kick and with sampled, spoken vox to stop it washing over you. It's 'I Feel It Coming' and 'Inner Journey' that work better for yours truly, though: both (the former especially) are just a little more uptempo and driving, and both add garage-y elements that help infuse proceedings with a little more soul and groove.

Inner Journey

Embark on a sonic journey with Tamati's 'Notte in Riviera EP' where each track serves as a testament to the vibrant Balearic influence coursing through the veins of the Adriatic Riviera.

From the gentle lapping of waves to the pulsating heartbeat of the dance floor, 'Tutto un Deja Vu' captures the essence of balmy summer evenings, inviting listeners to lose themselves in its irresistible groove.

Tutto un Deja Vu (Sparkling Attitude Italo Rave Remix)

The second coming of Monkey Boots continues with a sleek e-disco charger for dancers chasing thrills not frills.

Impossible Creed is grounded by a 1-2 punch of bottom end - a hypnotic slap disco loop riding a classic deep house bass sound (IYKYK).

String stabs and subtle filtering continue the disco theme but this is no retro release: The precision percussion, pin-sharp stabs, reverse FX and icy pads are ‘now’ AF. And the vocal hook (“I just want to believe”) is defiantly future-facing. There’s a moment after everything stops and the beats crash back with a vocal vamp when you’ll want to believe too.

Chris Reed and Paul Radley formed Monkey Boots more than a decade ago to showcase a new sound, somewhere between their beloved deep house and the nascent nu-disco and edit scene.

With new tracks underway, Paul passed away in 2022. Chris took a long time to figure out whether it was right to see their work through. After securing the support of Paul’s family, he decided it was.

Impossible Creed’s title (and a couple of elements) offer a deliberate nod to their earlier number one Impossible Need *. This is the third Monkey Boots release of 2025 following Monkey Magic, a celebration of some of their finest moments alongside a new version of breakthrough cut Whitworth Strut, and Rice Action, the first all-new track since Paul passed.

It's the latest release from the Natural Rhythms family of labels, which also includes Electric Orange, Red Snapper and Black Sands. All take their names from Aotearoa-New Zealand's beautiful environment. In the case of Grass Green it’s the lush vegetation that covers much of the country.
