Harry Thumann – Andromeda [HANSA260320]

https://i0.wp.com/upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fc/Cover-_Harry_Thumann_Andromeda.jpg

Reissue of the hard to find original Hansa International pressing of Harry Thumann’s 1983 cosmic classic ‘Andromeda’. Packed with killer disco and cosmic tunes, this mind-blowing album features some of the most advanced synth and electronic sounds out there. A fave of DJ Harvey and Daniel Wang, this includes some real dance floor bombs and of course, that wicked Sphinx vocoder track.

Cosmic Revenge – Cold Hearted EP [ELIM003]

Cosmic  Revenge - Cold Hearted EP image

Cosmic Revenge presents his second EP, a four tracker for Fortified Audio. Opener ‘Hurricane Blues’ comes off like Ikonika’s ‘Fish’ with a more defined IDM debt, while ‘Mutations’ follows with a clean and melodic garage breaks groove. ‘Cold Hearted’ is the best thing here, running an Altered Natives style drum entanglement with jazzy chords to match before ‘Late Nights’ jams on a halfstepped Gangsta boogie flex.

Ajello – Acrostico [DEDISC004]

Track artwork

Unusual fretless bassline, almost jazz territory with live sounded drum and hypnotic synth though it still holds the funkiness all the way through.  Funky cutting guitar – tropical feeling? These disco sound effects and bass keep the groove till the background noise breakdown come in, wait for the main chorus riff! Percussive intro, white noise effects, funky guitar riff – Perfect for the summery season to come!

OOFT – Ride In To The Red Zone [FOTO001]

OOFT - Ride In To The Red Zone image

Ooft is the joint effort of The Revenge and Ali Herron. With ‘Ride In To The Red Zone’ they lay down a bed of heavyweight slowhouse kicks before dropping a scorching male vocal, while ‘Spanky Spanky’ aligns itself with the sort of drag-house grooves.

cs394497-01a-med

Mule Electronic proudly announce the debut release of italian producer Donato Dozzy, with his friend Claudio Fabrianesi.

Bogdan – Human Thermodynamics [LCL01]

https://i0.wp.com/localrec.ro/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/lcl01.jpg
Bogdan, one of the label founders, launches the Local Records sound with a new change in style. After going through serialist music and balearic dub, he picks another hybrid – cosmic techno. 4/4 dancing with a disco heart, an album that tells a story about dancing in zero gravity.

Ichisan & Nakova – Yugo Tempo [NANG026]

Ichisan (fresh from his Under The Shade platter) teams up with Nakova for a new album’s worth of material. Over the past few years the pair have steadily been carving out a name for their unique style of nu disco, called Yugo Disco. The albums DNA is proudly Yugoslavian, right from the soul, imagery and groove down the nuances and timings of the instrumentation and the track titles.

Gino Felino – Spend The Night / Thank You Fo [CREME50]

AUDIO:  Gino Felino - Spend The Night

So it is with some smug gratification that we present to you Gino Felino. Pure, uncut and real to the bone Italo – definitely Too Late for the Trend, but perhaps coming soon to an iPad near you. Listen and learn, cause none of you clowns roll like the West Coast rolls! Comes in a ultra neat package!

Bottin – Artifact 1 [ARTIFACT01]

Bottin - Artifact 1

Here is one super sweet and sexy track called Sage Oil. Disco just don’t get much hotter then this. Flip side had a track called Hot Lizard which is a rawer and more masculine piece as many of us might know from the typical italian police series and horror movie scores from the late 70’s and early 80’s

Bottin – Artifact 1 [ARTIFACT01]

Ilija Rudman – Time and Time [EMINDS015]

Ilija Rudman is an analogue and vinyl purist his productions are always to the highest standard and Electric Minds is pleased to be working with the Croatian producer once again. Ilija delivers two bumper tracks for the A side of this release, most definitely a nod to the 80’s boogie sound with both productions thumping with bass throughout. For the B side we welcome Michael J Collins.
