We're so happy to announce the next arrival in our 7” series with OUTTA SIGHT, two incredibly unique and loving treatments of a soul classic.

On the A side we have Kan Sano’s signature future soul approach, accentuating the beautiful original vocals with lush pianos and sparse boom-bappity drums. Freddie Joachim flips it for the B side, channeling the juke-joint energy of the OG into a soulful house killer!!

Early support from Hot Toddy, Soul Clap, Roberto Rodriguez, Tall Black Guy, Rahaan, OOFT!, Get Down Edits, Roy Dank (Wurst Music Co.), Free Magic (Discovery), Jeff Craven (Large), Satin Jackets...

HOWEEFEEL "People Of The World" 1977

WavefilesVol. 1 brings every great element from their events into a great compilationalbum. Fresh and surprising productions from upcoming and established artists.It is hard to place the Wavefiles sound into a specific genre but it definitelyfits within Dutch Bass.

If you live in The Netherlands you might already know the Wavefiles crew from their events in Club UP (Amsterdam). Over the past few years they have booked artists like Lunice, SAMIYAM and NGUZUNGUZU and to many more to mention. In 2013 they won the award for best party at “Wie is AAN 2013”.

To celebrate Record Store Day 2014 BBE present to you two previously unreleased gems from the vaults, remixed by Glasgow's answer to Walter Gibbons, Al Kent.

"When Did You Stop" by The J's was criminally overlooked on its initial release in 1977 except on certain dance-floors in the north of England. Al Kent included the 12 inch version on his Disco Love Volume 2 for BBE, and while we did the licensing deal we discovered the original tapes were still safe and sound. So Al excitedly set to work creating a more disco friendly version of the song, taking influence from his hero Walter Gibbons, which quickly became a highlight of his DJ sets. We thought it was finally time to share this one with the rest of the world.

Similarly, Sandy Barber's "I Think I'll Do Some Stepping On My Own" was a big northern hit, but didn't receive much commercial success. And, like the J's, the inclusion on Disco Love 2 revealed a lock up containing the original tapes. Al's instrumental "Disco Jam" version appeared on our deluxe edition re-release of Sandy Barber's album alongside some John Morales mixes, but this "Classic Version" has remained unreleased until now. It doesn't seem possible that the original version could be bettered, but in Al's capable hands it's been transformed into a stunning seven minutes of soulful beauty.

*Mixed at Ebony Cuts*
Due for release on BBE Records, April 2014

Waldo - Kobe's Room (Revision) [Prod. by Sango]

Wah Wah 45s are proud to present the third single from a lady who’s been causing quite a stir of late, the powerhouse vocalist and lyricist Lea Lea. AK-47 is typically challenging in its subject matter, tackling as it does the Mexican drug wars and their effects, something Lea Lea had a little experience of whilst travelling and writing her eponymous debut album, released on Wah Wah 45s last autumn.

Having wowed audiences all over with uncompromising live show, and recently worked with Hospital Records artist Other Echoes on his forthcoming LP, this young lady has had a very busy 18 months or so, and 2014 sees the collaborations continuing, with North London duo Man Like Me contributing a stunning Sour House remix (a style devised by their label boss, Mike Skinner, AKA The Streets) and scorching hot U.S. producer Paul Basic giving AK-47 some proper Dub Step treatment. Oh and don’t overlook Lea Lea’s canny cover of the Talking Heads creepy classic Psycho Killer too for a very modern and alternative take on Byrne and co’s sinister single from 1977.

Lea Lea’s sassy style has drawn comparisons to Missy Elliot, MIA, Kelis and Grace Jones, but she’s really a one-off – at once alluring, charming and commanding. Writing songs that encourage dialogue and challenge female stereotypes, whilst being thoroughly entertaining, Lea Lea thrives on the darker side of music yet delivers her songs with an infectious warmth.

Modern in style, dramatic in production – Lea Lea is the new queen of dark electronic soul. Look out for her at both the Dimensions Festival, Croatia and Southern Soul Festival, Montenegro this summer!

Lea Lea - AK-47 (Man Like Me Remix)

DIGITAL PRE-ORDER from 5/21
OFFICIAL RELEASE on 7/1

It all starts with a sample of Beyonce’s breathing. “Skills” is the second single off DID’s latest album, “Bad Boys,” and it conveys the Turin-based band’s rough pop attitude to a T. Vocals recorded using an Iphone app, later re-filtered using a vocoder, precision rhythmic patterns, and a sharpie guitar sound, create a hybrid mixture of electronic wave and avant-pop.

With a video directed by Andrea Nissim and Corrado Marchigiano and filmed in a one continuous shot at Turin’s legendary venue, the Astoria, "Skills" lends itself to two reworkings: one by Italian producer Vaghe Stelle, who proposes a space-tech sounding remix, and the other by DFA’s Larry Gus.

"see how is serbia 
Belgrade, Čekaonica 
at least found no peace in war 

the room was filled with love 
the room was filled with love 
the room was filled with love 
the room was filled with love 
love, love, love, love, love, love 

the nakedness of white left me frozen 
i feel the dirt of lonely strangers on my way to the horizon 
i get caught by strong souls, it's always the same game 
shattered, splitted soul next to warmth of the unknowing flame"

Everydayz & Phazz - Almeria (20syl Remix) [Thissongissick.com Premiere]

Well well well ! I have been out for a few month due to a bad broken wrist, but I am good now and glad to give away this new rework of an all time funk classic ! 
"Brick House" was originally released in 1977 on the Commodores self-titled album.
This version is fully DJ friendly, re-mastered, new drums added, and a special new break in the middle.

Enjoy, play & share, it's summer time and I am back with a lot of new stuff to share...

Cheers / Pulse

We are pleased to announce the arrival of the first single from Vol. 2, featuring one of our favorite singers from Los Angeles,  Noelle Scaggs ( of the band FItz & The Tantrums).  

This isn't our first collaboration with Noelle... 

Our very own Todd M. Simon inked a new Rock Steady arrangement of James Brown's "Think (About It)" for The Lions back in 2007, which featured Noelle on vocals.  Noelle has also graced many other collaborations on her own, including Quantic (aka Will Holland) and Dilated Peoples, as well as being the featured lead female vocalist in the L.A. funk and soul outift The Rebirth .

This version of "Walk On By" is an extrapolation of the original Dionne Warwick version, mutated with the stylings of Isaac Hayes rendition and finally given a "decoded" Lovers Rock backbeat.  This was quite the undertaking, and Noelle did a great job invoking the classic women of soul from the 60's era to give this version a refreshing-yet old school feel.

Burt Bacharach and Hal David (R.I.P) were a great composer team, penning many a classic hit including "I Say A Little Prayer For You" which is also slated for a Decoders vol. 2 release later this year.  We hope that we did justice to their vision with our version of "Walk On By".

The strings were recorded by San Diego native, Thomas Lea.  Thomas is the latest addition to the Decoders production team, and you can hear his lush string arrangements on upcoming releases from Rhye & Quadron.

The official release date for the single is tuesday, October 16th.  It will be made available on itunes, amazon and bandcamp for download.

We hope you enjoy it and please share if you feel it!

The Decoders


Also, in case you haven't seen it, please check out our new EPK, which is an introduction to the project and gives a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes in the studio!

"My Way" (featuring Joe Dukie of Fat Freddies Drop) is the second official single from the debut album 'Getting Closer' by CLOSE, a new production alias from producer, DJ and label owner Will Saul.

"For me Joe Dukie has one of the best voices on the planet so it was a bit of dream come true to get to work with him. I worked with Fink in his studio in Brighton where we recorded his band (drummer and bass player) - the instrumental is all live and one take. We then sent this over to Dallas (Joe Dukie) and he sent back his vocals. Midland and Dusky are part of my core crew at Aus and really hitting their stride at the moment so natural choices for remixers for this single" CLOSE

The "My Way" single (which also includes remixes from Dusky, Midland & Tanner Ross) will be out June 24th. 

The Getting Closer album comes out June 11th on !K7 Records.
