1) UIUAWIO
2) Psychedelectricity

Man Power returns to Optimo Music with this splendid dance floor tested 2 tracker. He says -

“UIUAWIO is me killing time by covering Odyssey and singing into my laptop in a budget hotel in Mexico while my wife met with her lawyers next door. I think most of the best stuff people make comes in those loose moments that take place between doing everything else properly. Psychedelectricity is me writing lyrics for a fictitious song title that I read in a comic book story by Grant Morrison almost 30 years ago."

Out on Optimo Music Digital Danceforce on March 18th 2022.

Italo king return, warm and glowing Franz Scala (Slow Motion / Bahnsteig 23) offering the slow build new wave funk of For Me to start any party.

Cormac brings the heat into the new year with a brand new EP on his Polari imprint, this time coming from Greek DJ/production duo,  Boys‘ Shorts.

Boys’ Shorts is a Greek DJ/production duo based in London. The duo was founded by Vangelis (ex-LAGASTA) and Tareq. 

The Crop Tops EP‘s title track is a lyrical ode to queer dancefloor longing and is already proving to be a much requested hit.‘Days Without You‘ and ‘Nostalgia‘ compliment each other with a laidback emotional warmth, whilst ‘In The City‘ draws on their rave culture roots. The EP displays an expansive and clever musical world.

Cormac on the EP:
Boys‘ Shorts are two talented greek queers, whose music I've been playing for the last few years. I love their use of lyrics , their nods to rave and 90s music culture. It's truly a great thing to showcase them at their pop sensibility finest with the Crop Tops EP. All of these tracks have been heavily ID requested in my sets the last year.

Forthcoming EP Crop Tops is due to be released digitally, 17th of February.

Trulz & Robin - Out of Sync
Label: Snick Snack Music (https://soundcloud.com/user-874181388)
https://soundcloud.com/trulzandrobin https://soundcloud.com/robert-owens-official

Norway's Snick Snack Music welcomes Scandinavian electronic duo Trulz & Robin for an album of all-new analogue house jams.
This accomplished pair has already released four albums before this one and are masters of cooking up characterful club tracks. They combine classic sounds from house and techno into something funky, hypnotising and entirely their own. They call upon legendary house music vocalist Robert Owens, Kate Pendry, and their longtime collaborator Baseman for guest spots on this sublime LP.

Say the duo of this latest endeavour, “‘Out of Sync’ is for us an album re-connecting us to our roots. We wanted to create the music in the moment. With feeling and rawness. To embrace the imperfections that arose, and leave out the minds analysing and controlling nature.”

Kicking things off is ‘Inside Of Me' featuring Chicago great Robert Owens; it’s a timeless tune that could be a lost Fingers Inc cut. The drums are deep, and the vocal is among his best in years. 'U Get Some' has a similar early era house vibe with rough edge drums and low-slung bass, then Kate Pendry guests on 'This Is Love', a steamy deep acid cut with pounding drums and warped bass. 'Let Yourself Go' is taught but sensual, with bulbous bass offset by sharp, bright hi-hats that cut right through. 'The Wiggler' featuring Tolani & Baseman is one to get rumps moving with fat, wobbly bass and subtle acid twitches and 'Sync' with Baseman is full flavour deep house with a dark soul and muted chords that hook you in.

Robert Owen returns on 'Be There For U' with an ice-cold vocal that sits amongst lithe synths and stark hits; It's old school Chicago house with a contemporary twist. 'Unconscious' is defined by a rousing monologue from Muhammad Ali as turbulent bass sprays about beneath jacked-up drums and Chuc Frazier closes things out on the peak time acid smasher 'Divine Electricity'

‘Out of Sync’ is another irresistible analogue house masterclass from Trulz & Robin. The album drops on June 2nd, preceded by ‘Inside of Me’ on May 5th, ‘U Get Some’ on May 19th and ‘Divine Electricity’ on May 26th.

PREMIERE : Trulz & Robin Feat. Robert Owens - Inside Of Me (Club Edit)

In the mystical realm of Melodica, the renowned music producer Bozzwell Bradley ruled over the vibrant domain of the Voodoo Discoteque. This enchanted studio was a haven for both mortal musicians and magical beings alike. Bozzwell possessed a rare gift for infusing his music with the essence of the fantastical, creating tunes that transported listeners to realms beyond their wildest imaginations.

One moonlit night, a shimmering figure named Aurelia, a celestial being from a distant star, appeared at Voodoo Discoteque 68 Records. Her ethereal voice resonated with the power to bend reality itself. Captivated by her celestial melodies, Bozzwell offered to collaborate with Aurelia, eager to channel her divine essence into his enchanting compositions.

As their musical collaboration unfolded, the studio transformed into a kaleidoscope of magic and wonder. The melodies they created unleashed a cascade of sparkling stardust, painting the air with vivid colors. The very walls of Voodoo Discoteque 68 Records pulsed with celestial energy.

News of this celestial collaboration spread like wildfire throughout Melodica, drawing creatures from far and wide to witness the ethereal spectacle. Elves danced with glee, unicorns pranced in rhythm, and dragons hummed harmonies that resonated in the hearts of all who heard them.

The enchantment that Bozzwell and Aurelia wove together was a testament to the boundless power of music. It united beings of all walks of life, bridging the gap between mortal and magical, and reminding them of the universal language that dwelled within their souls.

In the end, the music of Bozzwell Bradley and Aurelia became legendary, forever etching their names in the annals of Melodica's history. And the melodies of Voodoo Discoteque 68 Records continued to echo through the ages, carrying the magic of their collaboration into the hearts of all who listened.

Dusting off some old Dat Tapes in Bozzwells Studio, this hidden gem was found  forged above  a spoon factory at Stag Works, Sheffield by Bozzwell and Chris Bradley, (Lex Records artists and Lights Down Low promoter ) , Voodoo Discoteque throbs.

Released on 68 Records on 22nd May and streaming on all digital devices.

Following up on the runaway success of his Dream The Dream compilation, Richard Sen returns with a dance floor focussed interpretation of Mind Over Rhythm - Kubital Footstorm.  In his own words: “This is a progressive breakbeat version and I tried to keep the original 90s vibe to it, but add my own personality. Because there were no separate parts available to use, I had to take samples of audio from the finished original. I added my own synth sounds and drums so it became a proper remix, rather than just edits.”
Dropping just in time for festival season, this dance floor stomper is undoubtedly going too soundtrack the summer!
