BBNR020 — BABANI RE-ISSUE

Following the success of BWAROUZ, BABANI proudly continues its re-issue series dedicated to the timeless works of Danyèl Waro — guardian of maloya and voice of La Réunion.

Official re-issue by BABANI × KRÉOL ART
In collaboration with Label Cobalt

Originally released in 1999, FOUTAN FONNKÈR captures Danyèl Waro in full voice — a live recording from Berlin (1996) that channels the raw soul of Réunion’s maloya. Between trance and testimony, it is a record that speaks from the people, for the people — a rhythm of resistance, a poem of dignity.

Guided by the pulse of the kayanm, bob and roulèr, Waro delivers words that breathe, strike and heal. Every sound echoes the island’s living memory — its struggles, its beauty, and its fierce sense of freedom.

Limited edition of 500 copies worldwide.

Carefully remastered by Neil Combstock for Bōucan Road Studios,
in collaboration with Philippe Conrath (Label Cobalt).
Artwork and layout by ë • visuals.
Illustration by Florans Feliks.

A document of spirit and fire — the voice of La Réunion, alive and unbroken.

Featured on Le Nouvel Obs – “12 vinyles lumineux pour résister au mois d’octobre.”

This month, we're taking a trip down memory lane, Austrian memory lane to be exact. We're please to welcome Jonny and Julian from Edition Hawara to the studio. 

Edition Hawara specializes in reissuing hidden gems and forgotten records from Austria from the yesteryear. In their searches in dusty old basements and flea markets, they have unearthed an impressive amount of incredible Soul, Boogie and Rare Groove records. Tune in to get a taste of the Austrian groove.

Plus One #22 w/ Edition Hawara

Faults (2025 remaster)

In truth another lie
It’s easy to convince yourself
Forgetting all your earthly wealth
What’s inside?
You lied so hard to try
Convinced them that you were alright
At the end of another low night
You want to hide

No body will reach you out there
A place where to see, you have to stare
But you cannot hide yourself
From those who try to pick you up

You run and hide
You cannot deny
You try to avoid any help
How can you live with yourself, live with yourself?
And so they all pass by
So hard to try
And nobody can reach you there
How can you live with yourself in your dark, dark country

And so the flags go up
You’re riding our another low
It’s so strange, ever so
So up and down
Why can’t you just commit to it
Decide to make a brave new change
Scared to see it all derange
And swing around

No body will reach you out there
A place where to see, you have to stare
But you can’t hide yourself
From those who try to raise you up

(Chorus)

So far the fall
No reason to recall
But you try to put the reasons all together
Designed to fall apart?
Or a flaw deep in the heart?
You can’t handle the truth, you can’t handle the truth, no, no

P./C. 2016 Richard Hill

Your Dark Country

See them all stood in line
Saying all the same things, time after time
It seems that it never gets old
Even after all the history,   you can still get cold
And somewhere out in the near east
There's a right-wing flapping, lame old beast
If propaganda changes sex
 we'd already be one way, guess its more complex

(I'm not a politician
I'm not a politician)
 
You telling me I'm going to hell
Where's all the hate listed in your book, please tell
I think that if He came today
He'd see that haters and talkers, send 'em down right away
Cuz the more you hold it back
The pressure keep building, as the bodies stack
This will only end one way
With the tide washing over what you are today… 
 
(I'm not a politician
I'm not a politician)
 
Transmit your holly words
Misinterpretations, only playing to get heard
It never really read that way
But you made your own rules, overwrote it anyway
Your holding evolution back
With your medieval words, hippocratical acts
Its amazing how we fall in line
Until  we're out of time… are we out of time???

The Politician

First released in 2016 on Aiwo Rec., Forum - Forum EP quickly became a cult favorite - a warm blend of dusty drum machines, rolling 303s and dreamy breaks that defined a certain late-night energy in the German underground while Outsider House was a big thing.

Now, reissued by WARNING, the record makes its return - carefully repressed and true to the sound and spirit of the original.
From the tropical flow of Yucatan to the hypnotic drive of Space Train, the EP moves effortlessly between house, breakbeat and deep, sunrise-ready euphoria.

For everyone who missed the original run, or whose copy has seen too many nights behind the decks - this is your chance to bring a timeless vibe back to life.

Digital release of this formerly vinyl only gem is exclusively available via the Warning Bandcamp shop.

DC Promo Tracks #1819: "No Communication - (TZ Part 1&2 Edit)" by Chicago Funk Band is part of the release "7" single" on Star Creature @starcreature 

Buy Now:  https://starcreature.bandcamp.com/

Deeply rooted straight from The Windy City, the Chicago Funk Band unite and ignite to shed light on a rare groove, cult classic 7” 45. Originally released in 1977 on an obscure Witch’s Brew label out of North Carolina, ‘No Communication’ by True Transfusion A.K.A. Human Blood had long gone unknown until recently as it snuck its way into rotation as a still relatively unknown grail amongst heavy collectors and selectors in the global underground funk and disco circles and gaining additional light as part of The Numero Group’s Eccentric Soul: The Linco Label compilation. So how did a rare groove grail get a remastered edit on the B Side with a top shelf cover by an all-star band on the A Side? I guess you could say great minds from The Windy City must think alike.

In 2024, Star Creature’s Tim Zawada (MD The Numero Group) was helping to work on an Eccentric Soul compilation for North Carolina’s Linco Label while at the same time and unbeknownst to each other, Chicago’s Soulistic 360 label head Arnell Newman alongside Chicago Funk Band members Ainsley Strong and Eric Johnson knew they could pull off an monster cover version of the same tune. The crew tapped in Tina Howell for vocals, Todd Swope on bass and underground favorite Spike Rebel for further production duties. The project was crowned to completion by Chicago royalty Rahaan who lent his talents on the arrangement and mixdown.

A few months later, during a regular trip to Tone B. Nimble’s shop in Flossmor, Tone treated TZ’s ears to a fresh punched up version of the now familiar tune leading to his introduction to the Soulistic360 Crew.

“I knew we had to do a split 7” - with a nice edit of the OG on the flip and this heavy cover version right up top, this old-meets-new record is a surefire crate-staple floor-fillin’ party record that won’t be leaving the bag anytime soon.. “

In the ether - (6th anniversary reissue)

Karel Husa, the Czech‑born American composer and Pulitzer Prize laureate, forged a distinctive modernist language marked by rhythmic vitality, expressive intensity, and finely etched instrumental color. His String Quartet No. 2 (1953) and String Quartet No. 3 (1968)—the latter commissioned by the Fine Arts Quartet and awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1969—stand among his most significant chamber works. Complementing them is Evocations de Slovaquie (1952), a vivid triptych for clarinet, viola, and cello that draws on folk inflections with both charm and virtuosity. This Phoenix USA release brings together authoritative performances from the Fine Arts Quartet and the Long Island Chamber Ensemble, offering a compelling portrait of Husa’s artistry. www.phoenixcd.com

Alexander Scriabin’s piano music traces one of the most remarkable artistic evolutions of the early 20th century—from Chopinesque lyricism to a highly personal, mystical harmonic language. The 24 Preludes, Op. 11 form the cornerstone of his early output, while the 5 Preludes, Op. 74 reveal the distilled, enigmatic style of his final years. The Poème, Op. 32 stands at the midpoint of this journey, balancing expressive warmth with emerging harmonic daring. Ruth Laredo’s performances capture the poetry, color, and intensity that define Scriabin’s pianistic world. www.phoenixcd.com

The latest album, 'Chaos & Virtue' is out NOW! 

Hailing from the vibrant and eclectic music scene of Leeds, UK, Rooke emerges as an artist who works across categorization. Bridging the gap between two worlds; crafting a signature sound that blends the anthemic, guitar-driven energy of pop-rock with the intricate soundscapes and synthetic pulse of electronic music. Rooke delivers meaningful pop—songs built on sharp, introspective lyricism and a genuine desire to connect. These are tracks that pack an emotional punch, pairing radio-ready hooks with themes that resonate long after the music stops.
It's the kind of music designed for both headphones-on, late-night reflection and massive, hands-in-the-air singalongs.
