Thurman  "Plastic Tiger EP" Timid Boy remix + Joshua Jesse remix

Thurman - Plastic Tiger (Joshua Jesse Remix)

In 2007, a limited one-sided 12” of ‘XXXO’ by Equip was pressed. Previously unreleased, this 1983 recording was an uncanny harbinger of the Acid House era, which was still a number of years in the future.  

This was the accompanying press release:

EQUIP XXXO 1983
In 1984 Street Sounds released the experimental ‘UK Electro’ album as part of their now legendary Electro series. All but one of the tracks on this ‘compilation’ were written and produced by the same nucleus of people, although the labels owner, Morgan Khan, came up with an array of fictitious names for the album credits, giving the impression of a thriving British Electro movement.

The trio behind the lion’s share of ‘UK Electro’ were Greg Wilson, a pioneering DJ who’d championed Electro via his cutting-edge nights at venues including Wigan Pier and Manchester clubs, Legend and The Hacienda, Martin Jackson, formerly a drummer with the band Magazine, and Andy Connell, the keyboard player with A Certain Ratio (Connell and Jackson would later go on to chart success, having formed Swing Out Sister).

‘UK Electro’ would reach the highly creditable position of number 60 on the album chart and is nowadays regarded as a cult-classic, having been an inspiration for the oncoming generation of homegrown dance producers, who’d make such an impact later in the decade. Much was made at the time about a British DJ being involved in making, rather than playing records, although this would become the norm a few years down the line.

One track from the sessions the ‘UK Electro’ collaborators worked on that never made the LP was ‘XXXO’ by Equip, which Morgan Khan didn’t deem strong enough for inclusion, perhaps due to its straighter 4/4 beat. It was recorded as a demo at Manchester’s Drone Studio in December 1983, along with another track that did appear on the album, ‘Real Time (Retrospective Dub)’ by Zer-o.

Issued for the first time, as a limited edition 12”,‘XXXO’ is a slice of British dance history, which has been described, in hindsight, as ‘Proto Acid House’. By complete accident, Wilson, Jackson and Connell had anticipated the direction that dance music was destined to take, but the track would never see the light of day, with only record company and DJ contacts, along with friends and family, getting to hear the demo back then.

When, in the early 90’s, Greg Wilson featured it on a promo cassette compilation of his work, a number of people expressed surprise that it actually pre-dated the early Chicago House releases, having assumed that this was the source of the tracks inspiration. More recently, Wilson included it on a CD he put together, originally for members of the Electro Empire website, which included an alternative version of ‘UK Electro’. It’s from these CD’s that the interest in ‘XXXO’ has built, resulting in the decision to finally make it available all these years on.

Premiere: Ruff Stuff - Last Chance (Harrison Bdp Remix)

Pre-order: https://freerangerecords.bandcamp.com/album/burning-up-remixes

With 25 years in the game, Freerange and Delusions Of Grandeur boss Jimpster knows what he's doing. So when he asks a producer to remix one of his tracks it's the ultimate seal of approval. 

With that in mind, Scottish producer Telfort absolutely delivers with his remix of 'Becoming Cyclonic' taking the swinging, melodic groove of the original and flipping it into euphoric no-nonsense house music.

Cody Currie takes the bounciness and stabbing chords of Christian James' "The WHIP" and reworks the stems into a swinging, midtempo affair. A full and fun bassline keeps the track moving nicely between layered hats and some trademark vocal sample filtering by Currie. The remix is a nice compliment to the rest of the record, serving as a loose, low-slung alternative to the faster originals. It's always nice to see another American label taking flight in the wax game, and Nicewon is here to represent the NoCoast.

PREMIERE: Ocean Stirs - Interscape [Dansu Discs]

Street lights stream across her face. Every three seconds another would pass. She is in complete darkness, but in motion. On waking, she doesn't panic - her demeanour doesn't reflect the intensity of the situation. She has no idea where she is or how she got there. In her pockets are her phone, out of battery, her keys, and a travel ticket. She looks closely at the travel ticket, squinting as she tries to catch a glimpse with each flash of light. It shows a train departure from Kings Cross, but no arrival.

For their 25th instalment Dansu Discs welcome Tom Jarmey under his new alias Ocean Stirs. Following a breakthrough 2020 under both his Tom Jarmey moniker and collaborative project, Mother Of Pearls, his debut as Ocean Stirs, ‘Through Twist and Seam’, takes you on a journey from tasteful, jungle-infused electro to half-tempo rollers and classic UK-infused vocal treats. With commanding acid licks and ominous percussion, 'Spawned in Motion' is a track that could take dancers by surprise, deviating the flow and direction of a night into darker, more interesting territory.
