Try To Find Me – Try To Find Me Vol. 3 [CHANNEL017]

July 23, 2012November 2, 2022 hipodromedisco, golf channel recordings, house, justin vandervolgen, try to find meLeave a comment

Justin Vandervolgen presents the latest in his Try To Find Me series on Golf Channel. This release is a selection of electric romping disco that gets looped into a frenzy, something Justin has a knack for. Another duo of obscurities, reworked and rendered in glorious 21st century technicolour. The A Side houses a fierce, camp and snare pounding mid-party banger, while the flip carries the Balearic gem ‘Needs Ending’ , a nice chugging electronic disco rhythm, great percussion and dreamy female vocals.

Michael Ozone – Perfect Systems [ESP006A]

July 23, 2012September 11, 2018 hipodromedisco, esp institute, house, michael ozoneLeave a comment

Australian Michael Ozone, is an artist embodying the purest form of absurdist energy. This debut offering, is but of a fraction of the entertainment we can expect as his career zig-zags forward. “Perfect Systems” is a tuff native track based on the idea of man-made tools, technology and borrowed languages. Imagine failed cities overtaken by jungle life as you’re swallowed by this utopian island groove. A not-so-distant relative on side-b, “Hetrotopia” leads us on a nomadic journey, exploring vast new landscapes and uncharted territories. References to New Beat and Horror soundtracks are apparent, but no matter what fantasies we infer from Ozone’s music, his talent for crafting such fiction is a welcome addition to the ESP institute.

Cover art - Unfinished Business vs Omni: Out Of My Hands (Love’s Taken Over)

’This outstanding 12″ was produced by the legendary Frankie Knuckles and is a remix of “Out Of My Hands (Love’s Taken Over)” originally from Chicago disco band OMNI featuring vocalist Connee Draper. This record has been hammered at the Powerplant by Frankie, The Music Box by Ron Hardy and is the stuff of legend (ask Dj Harvey). This is House Music in its purest form. And to make the deal even sweeter, we’ve remastered all the tracks from the original tapes and added the two OMNI original versions on a nice D12″.’

Shimmering VHS haze from NYC’s Torn Hawk aka Luke Wyatt. The world of Torn Hawk lies somewhere in-between slo-mo cosmic balearic sunrise/sunset music, kraut experimentations. All around though, Wyatt’s music feels like getting busted watching scrambled static ridden cable porno in your aunt’s wood paneled basement while smoking a pack of stolen Newports. Four amazing tracks on this limited debut release.

Golf Channel dip into the groundbreaking work of Spike once again. This time the title track from his 1983 New Germany LP takes up the A Side, a filmic, taught drum machine and string piece. On the flip, DJ NATURE steps up again to deliver a great rework, taking a pop at punk-funk.

Distributed by Peoples Potential Unlimited and brought to you by Cosmic Chronic, this hot 45 was produced and composed by Miami’s own Antoine Rocky-Horror. Featuring the Legendary Adrian Molina (The Molina Brothers, King Joffy + The Island Girls) on vocals for the B-side cut “Sophia”. As you’d expect from Cosmic Chronic and PPU, both sides are hot electro-boogie cuts with plenty of synth-funk action.

After three releases of darkened house, proto rave and weird techno, Holland’s boutique Purple Maze label takes a detour into funky disco territory with Prime Numbers and Firecracker craftsman Fudge Fingas at the helm. His Amaranthine Labyrinth EP is lively, bright and sugary, but still features plenty of complex analogue machinery to get you dancing.

Hieroglyphic Being – FACT mix 333

June 12, 2012June 18, 2014 hipodromechicago, disco, experimental, FACT, hieroglyphic being, house, jamal moss, musicbox club, podcastLeave a comment

“FACT mix 333 is a similarly giddy, similarly cliché-capsizing outing from Moss. Recorded on March 15, 2012, at the Musicbox club in Lisbon, it captures Moss across 2 hours and 45 minutes of live PA performance, vinyl DJing and editing on the fly. It’s by some distance the longest FACT mix we’ve ever hosted, but we couldn’t bring ourselves to edit it down: Moss’s exhilarating narrative, at times improvised and free-associating, at others coolly controlled, simply demands to be consumed as a whole.”

Sadly Betty Botox is no longer with us. She departed planet earth in 2010 and leaves a gaping hole amongst all those who knew her. She left behind a DAT tape in her studio with ‘”The Final EP” written on the cover in lipstick, which her closest confidants feel she wanted to be her last statement to the world. So, after a slight delay, two years later, 4 tracks that were regular features in her musically wayward dj sets are now available for her to fans to hear and play. Combining her love for Psyche Funk, Cosmic Synth, Space Rock and late 70s Stadium Rock these reworkings, remixes, refixes and reproductions of known and unknown tracks are sure to be hits on non-conservative dance floors everywhere.

Earl Flint – People Hold On [PANDA4Z905080]

A limited chance for you to get your hands on this achingly-rare Panda Records track ‘People Hold On’. Originally released in 1984, this stylishly classy record feels like undiluted house brought to you from before house even existed! Super-tight production skills from Wuf Ticket’s James Mason pull together a goosebump-inducing bassline, deeply hypnotic synths and tantalising handclaps topped off with Earl Flint’s elegantly sexy, meltingly cool vocals to deliver a masterpiece in early 80s NYC groove. Backed with a much in-demand killer instrumental version, this record is almost impossible to find out there on the wax market.

David Vunk – Bowie EP [MST019]

In his dark analog Moustache Records homestudio downtown Rotterdam city David Vunk made his ”Bowie ep”. This energizing ep contains 3 various styled tracks for the dancefloor. On the this side the track ”Forever Always” a stunning filter house tune with a vocal that goes on and on, a fat party break and rolling low kickdrums topped with some crazy hihat programming. On the that side two tracks. A notorious full power hi energy nu-disco/electro track filled with evil strings, catchy melody, tr-808 drums and arp odyssey baseline madness called ”Disco Sysex”. The b2 track called ”Vroezenpark” sounds like it comes straight from hell, a dusty techno track with Berlin infleunces, tr-909 drums and a Roland jupiter 8 synth. Insane and paranoia style. This very limited pressing comes with luxury gatefold fullcolour sleeve, poster and hand numbered, limited copies..
