Not sure why I never uploaded this here in all this time, but it came out on vinyl now and it reminded me to finally get it up on here.

The edit also features in this mix of mine: https://soundcloud.com/disco-frisco/disco-frisco-guest-mix-tom-bolas-camp-cosmic-2019-tune-by-tune-mix-re-recorded

Guestlist Of Love (Tom Bolas Edit)

This is on a 4 track edits EP that has been released on Violette Szabo label in March of 2023. See the full track list here: https://soundcloud.com/tombolas/sets/new-edit-ep-coming-out-on

B2 - I Just Wanna Dance (Tom Bolas Edit)

Edit of an Austrian promotional record that was too short and had some horrific and annoying vocals

Bel Étage (Tom Bolas Edit)

Changed from private to public on 30/12/2018

Sapho - Carmel (Tom Bolas Edit)

added intro from instrumental B-side, little instrumental break inserted and instrumental outro after re-introducing the vocal part back in for a bit after the break. From 4 to 7 minutes

Joe Graham - Hug Is Better Than Drugs (Tom Bolas 7" To 12" Edit)

Germany Calling (Tom Bolas Edit)

An old edit from 2016 I just changed to public for your to download for the occasion of my "Tanz ohne Planeten" edit reaching the 500 likes marker on Soundcloud and approaching 10k plays. 

Enjoy!

Stu Stevens - Love In Paris (Tom Bolas Edit)

Reggae Disco 7" record re-edited to a 12" version. Intro, break and outro created from B-Side "Dub Version"

Babylon Is Fallin' (Tom Bolas 7" to 12" Extension Edit)

Part 2 of a 2-part track extended. Sadly, the Sitar and Percussion parts from the first part just did not wanna fit into this part of the track. It would have been a lot sweeter still...

Fly Away (Tom Bolas Edit)

I only made the intro a little more instrumental for DJing, that's it. No need to mess with perfection beyond that.

Oby Onyioha - Break It (Tom Bolas Adjustment)

An edit of a Korean Synth-Funk Jam that had a couple of show-stoppers in the original that needed removing and re-arranging.


Unfortunately now sold out, still available at a certain online marketplace

Kangham Funk (EDIT)

An edit of the dubby bits from Jimm Hys' track "Stand Up And Fight) from the last minute and something of the track only

Jimm Hys - Stand Up And Fight (Tom Bolas Edit)

Edit of an Indonesian cover version of a famous and legendary rock hit by one of the biggest rock bands of all time.
 
(Update: Sold out worldwide, check on Discogs if you want a copy. I ran out as well)

Senopati Punk (EDIT!!! - NOT an original production of mine)

Extended edit of an impossibly rare Austrian 7". I am not planning on releasing or sharing it however, sorry!

Derry - Aerobic Sound (Tom Bolas B-side extension edit)

Different parts from 4 tracks of this LP pulled together into one long re-edit of Egyptian disco without all the folky Bellydance bits in between.

Khamis Henkesh - El Disco (Tom Bolas Re-Edit)

Winner of a song contest run by a German underwear and bathing suit company in 1984. The prize was the production of a song with professional musicians - namely this very song. Judging by her rapping skills, the competition must have been a little on the weak side of things... 😆 It needed some seriously cheesy Schlager bits removed and more of the electronic good stuff. Enjoy!

Tanz Ohne Planeten (Tom Bolas Edit)

Extended edit of a mega rare and hard to find Austrian gem. Original is just over 2 minutes long only.

Out on Duca Bianco label soon with other edits by Ivan Smagghe & Cross, Benji da Freak aka Hanoben and Schmoltz: https://www.juno.co.uk/products/s-c-tom-bolas-hanoben-db12-001/712506-01/

Folterkammer (Tom Bolas Edit) - out on vinyl (link below)

Update: Release date approaching on Duca Bianco label aka the little disco brother of the infamous Bahnsteig 23 label

The original track is really awkward to play, too short and abruptly ends. It needed an edit badly, let's just say

Fick Mich (Tom Bolas Edit)

A re-edit of a cheesy (albeit not as cheesy as the original) cover of Funkytown by a bunch of Europeans wearing golden tinfoil suits.

Honkytown (Tom Bolas Edit)

Edit of a Nigerian uptempo disco banger with a nice synthline that once formed a beatless break, causing dancers to stop and wonder what happened. Needed a more continuous flow for danceability

Done It (Tom Bolas Edit)

Here is an edit made of the first minute and a half or so of an East German discowave track that in its original form completely changed mid-way through, into a not so enjoyable Rock song, absolutely ruining the vibe.

This is on a 4 track edits EP that has been released on Violette Szabo label in March of 2023. See the full track list here: https://soundcloud.com/tombolas/sets/new-edit-ep-coming-out-on

Big thanks to @flo-dalton for the tip on this one!

A1 - Disco-Cadabra (Tom Bolas Edit feat. Flo Dalton)

Originally released in Germany in 1986 and without any intro, hence the little edit

Rough translation of the lyrics:

Hello Carl, how are you?
Thank you, I am fine, I’ve just joined a new company which gives me renewed strength,

Staff work like crazy, I bag all the money, just take it easy, let work be work,
Now I’ll fly to Paraguay, bring the millions with me, there I’ll buy a plot of land, I’m a big hit,

I won’t pay no more taxes, that’s just stupid to me, I’ll travel around the world, I won’t lift a finger,

1, 2, 10 workers, me on the career ladder, on first name terms with politicians,
Corruption, corruption, corruption is meant to be a part of it

1, 2, 10 million, the tax authorities will leave me alone because I create jobs and secretly laugh about government subsidies.
