Soundstream – All Night [SST05]

Three satisfaction-guaranteed disco cut-ups from the one and only Soundstream! ‘All Night’ is no exception, from the filtered finesse of the the title track – which previously appeared as the closing cut to Tama Sumo’s brilliant P’Bar 02 mix – to the sweet ‘n crunchy bop of ‘Tease Me’ and the conga/clap driven wooze of ‘Deeper Love’.
Snuff Crew – Winter In June [STX003]

The third release on Snuff Trax comes straight from Snuff Crew. ‘Winter in June’ is a dreamy spacey chicago house track and comes with a Dance Disorder remix.
LigerVision – LigerVision [CLSS07]

Tom Noble presents the LigerVision project. Together with his buddy Matt Rowland from LigerMusic they deliver this EP with 6 modern takes on classic disco, boogie and funk! Sweaty, synth-heavy instrumental tracks going from warm up-tempo boogie jams such as Dancin Hard and Sleepinmybed to late night summertime funk cuts such as Look and Music Engine.

Awanto 3 – For Five EP [RH-VD2]

‘Voyage Direct’ series presents two mid-tempo heaters from Rednose Distrikt aka Steven De Peven. ‘Get That BeeDeeBee’ is discofied-house music is the stringest Rush Hour tradition, elegant yet dirty, sensuous and hypnotic ‘Dam-style beatdown. ‘I Am Cumming’ pushes up the tempo on the flip, teasing up warmest filtered disco vibes and Detroit-debted soul chords.
Andy Ash – Dance [FOTO002]

For Foto/s second vinyl release Liverpool-based producer and swept fringe sporter Andy Ash supplies 2 tracks of dancefloor pressure. The A-side ‘Dance’ combines deep detroit synths with driving house rhythms to devastating effect, whilst on the flip Andy gets his sample chopping gear out to cut up an 80s soul number into a grooving pitch-down banger for ‘Mason In My Basin’.

Traxx – Lifeless Future

For the first smaller jubilee of the Nation Podcast we were not sure what we should do to quench the thirst of those who are in constant need of Jakbeat.
But then Traxx was getting booked to play alongside Gene Hunt and Sadar Bahar in Amsterdam for a celebration of the early blueprints of Chicago House, and to take the people attending the show on a journey through time and space, deep into the vaults of what is considered to be the greatest musical revolution of all time.
Our own excitement for this historical event, made us go down into the basement-archives to unearth a session that was thought to be forgotten. Ripped directly straight from tape, with all artefacts and soundlevel-changes intact… Lifeless Future will draw a disturbing image of the future, when Mankind is not anymore, and all there is left in the world is sound.
We hope you will enjoy this session, and give it a repeated listen…

Tornado Wallace – Always Twirling [DOG013]

“Always Twirling” spins into action with driving 16th note hats, compressed pads and soaring strings. 808 snare fills rattle throughout and a warm, dubby bassline provides the speaker-troubling low end. “Twirl And The Beanstalk” goes for a more heads down, bare beats and bass approach resulting in an intense, floor friendly track that grooves extra hard. Finally, we have “Whispering Twirl”, a sumptuous slice of mid-tempo deepness with a hint of boogie and a dash of soul.
Session Victim – Million Dollar Feeling [DOG012]

Session Victim are back with yet more 21st century explorations into the thing we call house. It s been a busy 12 months for the German duo maintaining momentum by releasing some of the most inventive, warm, deep and soulful music on a host of vinyl orientated labels. “Million Dollar Feeling” comes with a remix from the Dutchman Gerd.
Erdbeerschnitzel – To an End [MIRAU011]

“To an End” is a glittering soul essence that guarantees for a perspiring spell of hopping and swaying, and ”I Wonder” bursts with funk euphoria, screaming for confetti to pelt the dance floor. This release comes with a hypnotic Tuff City Kids – remix. Tuff City Kids are Phillip Lauer of Arto Mwambe fame and Running Back’s Gerd Janson.

various / spatial disco – Spatial Disco 2
We missed out on the first volume, but we’re certainly not making the same mistake with ‘Spatial Disco 2’! It’s the second in a series of library records compiled by the Austrian Electunes label and entirely drawn from the legendary Tele Music catalogue, this time focusing on the electronic productions of Saveur Mallia between 1981 and 1984, most specifically the ‘Cosmosynthetic’, ‘Percussions Modernes’ and ‘Automation’ albums. The styles rove between early Art Of Noise or Arthur Baker alike electro on ‘Smurfissimo’ to Robotnick-esque jaunts such as ‘New Wave Sequence’ and urgently uptempo breakdancers like ‘Robot Scratch’. Our favourites have to be the Italo propulsion of ‘Macadam Locomotion’ and the atmospheric bassline arpeggios of ‘Rectangle Astral’. A must for anyone who got a kick out of the Tangerine Traume compilation or fans of Riechmann, John Carpenter etc.
Apiento & Co – She Walks [LENG004]

Apiento & Co follow up their 7” for Claremont 56 with a new 12” for Leng. This again has lush, mellow ibizian mood about it but could work wonders on the dancefloor late at night. The slow arpegiated groove leads us into a hooky piano with the strings and then a lovely piano solo drifts along and completes the package. Pete Herbert turns it round and aims straight for the dancefloor in true disco Herbert style.
Mike Simonetti – That Look In Your Eye [PERSEO01]

Mike Simonetti takes an edit to three very obscure 90s house tracks. A track was modified for better club use… extended so it builds, builds and builds… The two tracks on the b-side sound like 90’s Japanese piano house and a happy house rave track flipped on 33.
