DC Promo Tracks #873: Kamuflars "Kveldsol" (Telephones' MOLO Sunrise Remix)

Reissue number three for https://soundcloud.com/heelsandsouls combines the Balearic bliss of Paprika Soul’s, ‘Come With Me’, with Soft Sugar’s dream house gem ‘Métro’ and an unreleased version of the tripped-out groover ‘Swampin'. A cherry picking of the best of three rare and
sought after ‘90s EPs from the minds of High Wycombe’s Alan Barnes, Andrew Spiller and Andrew Hughes.
Paprika Soul saw Barnes, a DJ in his own right who regularly worked with the likes of Gilles Peterson and Norman Jay, join forces with Andrew Spiller, keys player for UK jazz funk band Push. Spiller was also co-owner of Radar Studios out of which Barnes and Hughes were making music as Soft Sugar.
About as anthemic as they get, Paprika Soul's 'Come With Me (Sea
Breeze)' is an otherworldly electronic interpretation of Tania Maria’s
beloved Brazilian jazz funk classic from '83. Vocalist Sarah Newell's
unique delivery combines with a euphoric blend of Barnes’ and
Spiller’s crisp drum machine programming and cosmic synthwork.
Complete with crashing waves and Balearic birds, it’s a timeless,
endorphin-tingling track that feels even more relevant than ever. The
A-side also features the brilliant street soul flavoured ‘The Chill’ mix
and the ‘Bossa Mix’, the most true in form to the original.
On the flip, an earlier meeting of minds between Barnes and Andrew Hughes, that culminated in Soft Sugar’s dream house flavoured ‘Métro (Funk Mix)’ - a homage to time spent cruising the Parisian train system. Sighted by Barnes as his favourite of their productions, it blends that riviera feel of classic M1 stabs and sweeping pads with a dreamy bassline and stuttering breaks. Sadly it didn’t get the recognition it deserved at the time and has since become hot property for the eagle-eyed digger out there.
Closing it out, an unreleased alternate version of ‘Swampin’, made in the following session to the mix found on the Basement Records House Department EP. Mesmerizingly smooth, this 110bpm house-groover busts the brain with wigged out chants and intoxicating
arpeggiations.
Fully licensed from Alan Barnes himself and remastered by Cicely Balston, 20% of profits from Heels & Souls Recordings and Prime Direct Distribution will be donated to Zaatari Radio – a humanitarian collective working with war-affected communities around the world.

VA Lipelis & Andy Butler, Eternal Love, Yu Su, Benedek - Itria Vol. 2

It was easy to give your entire self to work, to let it dictate your life and take over your every waking thought. Switching off was an achievement in itself, some people weren't able to do it, no matter how hard they tried. How idyllic it would be to daydream the day away and let your imagination take you somewhere else; how beautiful it would feel to let your mind be free of commitments and instead just float, float away... 

Milanese duo Eternal Love, AKA Edo and Fede, have quickly made a name for themselves through their joyful DJ sets which connect the dots between Balearic, disco and dusty classic house and breakbeat - check their recent mix for us to hear the vibes for yourself. Always bringing that little bit of soul to their musical endeavours, no matter the genre or style, the pair now translate this feeling to their debut release, a four track EP for Mike Who's Planet Trip Records. Listening to their sets and shows, the music on Altar is exactly what you'd expect the pair to create - it's packed with blissed-out Balearic, smooth street soul and acid-soaked house, best listened to in the sun with a spritz or natural wine in hand, of course.

PREMIERE: Eternal Love - Flotamos [Planet Trip]

Rollover Milano Records is the label born out the longstanding and hyper cool party based at the Apollo Club in Milan. Boasting a roster of shiny luminaries, the label continues with its dark disco, deep house, Italo funk demeanour as a mirror ball to the glam club night.
The next outing on the label comes from Ferrari. Hailing also from Milan, the DJ & producer makes a welcome return to Rollover Milano Records at full speed, known for conjuring up space rock from far flung corners of the galaxy with a warm house and cosmic disco lean.

The Subacqueo EP continues in that vein, but with an extra injection of Balearica, infused with the intensity of the rave. The hypnotic 'Deep Blue Green Eyes' opens with a wide screen cinematic feel, followed by the rework of the rhythmic rave of Subacqueo and its lovely acid lines, the remix coming from Bell Towers who is no stranger to the night. Having released on key labels like Public Possession, Internasjonal and Cocktail D’amore, the Aussie producer has a fair stab at remixing the title track, taking it apart and mixing it up into a cosmic disco frenzy with lashings of paradise piano keys. ‘Morning Routine’ closes out the EP in full on rave style.

This is a collection of high speed, dance floor killers elegantly designed to make your dancers sweat in the deep, dark, deadly night hours.
