DISKOPHONIC: because DISCO is not just for Travolta...taking place as a special event in San Francisco with residents Julius Papp and Franky Boissy...

Diskophonic is an uplifting, dance music experience inspired by the sounds of DISCO…expect to hear an eclectic selection of disco-fied gems like tracks by pioneering electronic dance music producers Giorgio Moroder and Space; to songs from the classic PHILLY SOUND era, which was rich with soul and lush arrangements; to the early 80’s disco-BOOGIE vibe, as well as DISCO HOUSE; plus current favorites from NU DISCO soldiers like Todd Terje and Dr. Packer to those elusive DISCO EDITS yielding refreshed versions of the classics…let's get down!

ВАЛЕРИЙ СТЕПАНОВ - ЯБЛОКИ НА СНЕГУ

Reel People are back. Back to their roots. Back to the future. Back with a bang. Eagerly awaited new album Retroflection sees the revered collective recreating 12 soul, disco and boogie classics pivotal to their formation nearly 20 years ago and subsequent hugely successful evolution. Band leader Oli Lazarus has gathered a stellar cast of musicians and singers, – the likes of Angie Stone, Mica Paris, Omar, Tony Momrelle, Navasha Daya, Anthony David, LaSharVu and Sharlene Hector breathing fresh and irresistible life into seminal grooves by Maze, Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King and Teena Marie among others.

Mica Paris opens proceedings, her powerful take on Alicia Myers’ gospel-R&B jam I Want To Thank You an impressive herald for what’s to come – authenticity, contemporary edge, rich musicianship, beating soulful heart. Angie Stone provides sass ‘n’ slink over signature low-end synths for a suitably raw re-tooling of Yarbrough & People’s 1980 hit Don’t Stop The Music, whilst the funky strut of Thinking About Your Love (a crisper, more urgent update of Skipworth & Turner) perfectly complements Omar’s expansive, one-in-a-million vocals. Elsewhere, Reel People regular Tony Momrelle revisits Carl Anderson’s mid-Eighties gem Buttercup (penned by Stevie Wonder) with considerable finesse as well as Bill Withers’ seriously underrated collabo with guitarist Jose Feliciano, Can We Pretend.

Basement Jaxx songstress Sharlene Hector uplifts on a sparkling new version of Side Effect’s Always There. Reel People’s sweet summer hook-ups with Baltimore chanteuse Navasha Dava are also present and correct – I’m In Love and Can’t Fake The Feeling pay affectionate tribute to Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King and Geraldine Hunt respectively at the same time as showcasing Daya’s sublime, jazz-flecked delivery. There’s still room for Anthony David’s luscious rendition of deep-soul bomb Keep It Up (originally by Milton Wright) and for LaSharVu – a white-hot amalgam of Hector and fellow female powerhouses Vulu Malinga and LaDonna Harley-Peters – to smartly re-dress Teena Marie joint I Need Your Lovin’. Sleek instrumental twists on Maze’s Twilight and Pleasure’s Joyous complete the incredible line-up.

Reel People’s first full studio album in 10 years (following acclaimed releases Second Guess and Seven Ways To Wonder, as well as compilation work including Golden Lady), Retroflection reflects the highest possible level of passion and polish. Such soulful devotion and craftmanship has ever been a Reel People hallmark. Recorded in London and Atlanta over an intense 12-month period, Retroflection also avoids the formulaic overload of modern beats and basslines that countless others pursue. Here the past is artfully reawakened, Reel People’s talented cast of performers – overseen by experienced studio-hands Lazarus, Mike Patto, Matt Cooper (of Incognito fame) and Toni Economides - re-treading classic riffs with new yet respectful purpose. Their compelling neo-soul blend of now and then should awe diehards and newcomers alike. Retroflection is one hell of a return.

Oh, and before you ask – (it’s the question Lazarus gets the most) – live shows are set to follow. Reel People have recorded Retroflection with an easy translation to ‘the road’ front of funky mind. Looks, then, like we’ll be enjoying this incredible group’s company well into 2019…and beyond. It really is good to have them back.

THE REGIME - DEUZY VIBE

Good morning
Lets go and seize the day
Because its one I know we’ve never seen before
I know the times where in is feeling more than strange
But theres a lot of things to still be grateful for
Lets make a good situation
From the one we have and bridge the gap thats standing in the way
a little more imagination to remove the bad 
And see the magic shining through the haze

Cos we’ve all had our fair share
Never did we think that this could be
Stuck in the middle like your going no where 
If you feel that you agree
then wont you come with me

So lets go and find that place
Look for a future filled with brighter days 
Just give it up now with no delay
Its where you need to be
Come and go with me

La la la la 
Lets escape 
La la la la 
Lets escape

I know your patience is wearing thin 
And defeat is knocking at the door 
But you just Hold your ground now 
And don’t you give in
Cos the battle there to win is yours

Set your mind and spirit free
Lay your troubles down and just take five 
Just pull away its what you need
Oh and spend a little time
come and go with me

So lets go and find that place
Look for a future filled with brighter days 
Just give it up now with no delay
Its where you need to be
Come and go with me

La la la la 
Lets escape 
La la la la 
Lets escape

And oh I see it in your eyes
Its essential
That you get away from all the crowds 
Oh get rid of the disguise
Do it now, do it now

Oh get up and get out of your stay of mind 
Oh get up you gotta do it now
Oh get up and get out of your stay of mind 
Oh get up you gotta do it now

So lets go and find that place
Look for a future filled with brighter days 
Just give it up now with no delay
Its where you need to be
Come and go with me

La la la la
Lets escape
La la la la
Lets escape
