WAXIST's RELEASES

So finally here is a decent / mastered version of the Sheila Hylton's Surface cover. I am really happy & honoured to bring a little more light on this track from her, with her blessings furthermore :)

Ebony Cuts been working good on the remastering of the track! Here is a low res mp3 preview of the track that originally came out as a Jamaican 7" & which is now hard to find. I edited the two sides to make it last longer. Still some modifications need to be performed but you can start to enjoy it people!

Watch out for the official release soon !

Sheila Hylton - Falling In Love (Waxist Edit) / Out NOW on Golf Channel Records

Here is a mp3 preview of my edit of Prince Blackman's killer cover of this all time classic, turned into a reggae - disco mood & called "Rockers Delight". 

The edit is featured on @Culturesofsoul 's compilation 'Tropical Disco Hustle !' that is closed to be released as a CD & a gatefold LP. 

Pre-orders are available here

Read what Cultures Of Soul says about the compilation : 

"It seems like no part of the world has evaded discos’ ubiquitous influence, including the Caribbean. The Caribbean in the late ’70s and early ’80s was a hotbed of musical activity and this compilation focuses on the best disco-influenced tracks from Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, and the Bahamas. All of the tracks here were officially licensed and reissued for the first time ever.

Highlights of the 13 tracks included on this compilation are: the under-the-radar cosmic disco tune “Got To Have You” by Joanne Wilson, a rare P&P Records-influenced track “Dance With Me” by Odessey One, the icy cool synth-trenched “Living On A String” by Wild Fire, the incredible dance floor-friendly “Instant Funk” by Merchant, and the disco reggae cover of “Rapper’s Delight” by Prince Blackman. This compilation was compiled and researched by Deano Sounds and includes edits by Al Kent, the Whiskey Barons, and Waxist Selecta. Coming out on June 17th on CD and 2LP gatefold."




Prince Blackman - Rockers Delight [Waxist Edit] // Out Now on Cultures Of Soul // Low Res Preview

Kalita are delighted to announce the first ever official reissue of Billy Evans’ sought-after 1985 12” disco single 'Prisoner Of My Weakness'! Over thirty-five years since initial release, and long acclaimed by collectors, DJs and dance music fans, the time is ripe to share Billy’s music once more. 

Originally privately released in a small run on Billy’s own label Tee Records, Kalita’s 12” reissue single features both the vocal and incredible dub mix versions of ‘Prisoner Of My Weakness’, plus a brand-new phenomenal remix courtesy of Waxist, produced using the original multitrack analogue master tapes.

With original copies selling for triple figures on the rare occasion that they come up for sale, Kalita now deliver a loud and remastered 12” single for all.

B2. Billy Evans - Prisoner Of My Weakness (Waxist Mix)

I am really happy & honoured to announce the officially licensed release of this rare disco / modern soul gem from 1980. Here is my small story about this : I have been introduced to this record a few years back by DJ Klas. On the very first listen, it made me crazy & I went on an intensive & long quest to get myself a copy of the 45. It then became a kind of classics of my DJ sets, the record always being in my bag. It is definitely a sure shot for the dancefloor ! 

I then got in touch with the artist Lamar Thomas, first to try to get a spare copy, but after a few conversations on the web, I told myself it would be nice to give this rare & excellent record a new release. Pascal Rioux & Favorite Recordings finally agreed on the idea, and here it is. 

Very happy & honoured to have contributed to this nice release. Big thanks to Josh Goldman aka DJ Klas, Roger Thornill (for providing the original sleeve art) & to Favorite Recordings for believing in this project!

SOL1004 - Message In Our Music [Album Preview Clips]

Really happy to share a quick low resolution preview of this new edit I've been working on over the last few months. 

It's a real pleasure & honor to have been asked to propose my own edit of this killer private disco song from the original stems. Originally released on the Various Artists Hometown Album II, this has always been a huge favorite of mine over the last years. 

This will be out soon (more news asap!) on Rain & Shine Records.

Preorder on our Bandcamp: favoriterecordings.bandcamp.com/album/mes…by-waxist

SOL DISCOS, sub-label of Favorite Recordings, is extremely happy to introduce to you the second volume of their Message In Our Music compilation album, selected by WAXIST. This album is the result of more than two years of work in researching the original recordings, the artists involved & licensing the different songs.

A1. Sharnell Morton - You Are My Guiding Star
A2. Janice Nikki Harisson - Magic Of Love
A3. Direct Connec Shun - He's No Good
A4. The James Family - We've Got It Made
B1. Network & Co - Spirit Of The Boogie
B2. Marlon Hunter - Did You Forget My Number
B3. Spice Of Ice - Star Struck
B4. Executive Suite - When It Comes To Loving Me

Focusing once again on the Modern Soul genre, the album brings back to light eight extremely rare songs from the mid-70's to the mid-80's, all officially licensed.

From the heavy synth Gospel Boogie of Sharnell Morton's "You Are My Shining Star" to the magnificent Network & Co private Disco "Spirit Of The Boogie", most of these songs are highly challenging to find on their original format, not to mention at a decent price. Direct Connect Shun "He's No Good" records have been destroyed in a flood, and the few copies which have sold on the Internet reach the 3 figures price tags for example. Also, the album is proud to introduce to a wider audience some lesser-known but exceptional recordings such as Janice "Nikki" Harrison's "Magic Of Love" which is taken from a Broadway musical produced & composed by Ted Wortham - who also composed for Philadelphia International Recordings artists such as Teddy Pendergrass, Anthony White or Jean Carn.

Message In Our Music Volume 2 has been fully remastered, and features interview-based liner notes, along with never seen before pictures of the artists selected.
