Auntie Flo – Birds of Paradise LP [ASOF010V]
‘Birds of Paradise’ draws on d’Souza’s global club experience while deepening his connection with the natural world. Built around classic Roland drum machines and iconic vintage synths, the record is a joyful, body-driven celebration of rhythm and movement, but one grounded in ecology and place. The album’s spiritual centre lies in Saligao, Goa, near d’Souza’s maternal homeland where his Auntie Florie (where the name is derived from) is buried. Where he found his ‘paradise’ nearby, staying in a converted fisherman’s hut and recorded dawn choruses from a riverside studio overlooking mangrove-lined waters. Environmental textures from Japan also make their way into the music, creating a sonic map rooted in lived experience.
Franz Scala – Cafe Futuro LP [SLOMO055]
Italian visionary Franz Scala returns to Slow Motion Records, with the infectious, ground-moving LP ‘Cafe Futuro’, a follow-up to his highly acclaimed debut’ Mondo Della Notte. A homage to the influential Neukolln bar and meeting point for Italo and Cosmic disco heads, Cafe Futuro is a testament to this special place, the soundtrack and its revered legacy.
Uabos & Hard Ton – GHOST (Hysteric remix) [FREE DOWNLOAD]
Special Halloween remix from master Hysteric.
“I spent close to 100 hours making this remix during 2019 with a lot of sample hunting and editing from old horror movies.”
Putsch ’79 – Birdz EP [CMF007]
The seventh release on The Comfort comes from a legendary Finnish electro-disco duo known to any music nerd worth their salt: Putsch79, the pair of Sami Liuski and Pauli Jylhankangas. Heavy on bliss and warmth, the four tracks sit elegantly between italo, house, and disco, featuring sleek vocoders, beautiful arpeggios, soft percussion, gentle plucks, and just the right amount of low-end to hold it all together.
Marco Passarani presents F.F.O.M. – Mirage On The Red Land [SWOB03]
SWOB returns and introduces a new artist to the fold. Several years after a 12” for the Unrelatable imprint, Marco Passarani opens a new chapter with F.F.O.M., a work of extra-terrestrial tales that feel grounded, where the hard, dirty work of the people continues on a different planet. The scenery changes, but the story stays the same: broken dreams on arid ground. Passarani blends experimentation with an unshakable sense of groove, weaving a more abstract narrative without losing the dancefloor pulse. While distinct from his Studiomaster output, the project shares the same DNA, fusing digital and analog textures until the boundaries dissolve.
Iron Curtis – Dial Me In LP [HUDD073]
Hudd Traxx makes label history with its first-ever full-length album, Dial Me In, from long-time affiliate Iron Curtis. He delivers a rich and varied journey through deep house, ambient textures, and eclectic grooves, flowing effortlessly from club-ready jams to moments made for home listening. A landmark release for Hudd Traxx – diverse, soulful, and built for both the dancefloor and beyond.

Bryan Zentz – Barada Trax 7 [SG25100]
90’s techno legend Bryan Zentz, also known as Barada, is back on Sonic Groove with a killer mini LP release. Spanning a wide spectrum of classic techno sounds-from deep, dark, brooding acid, jacking techno, into beautiful, self-reflective Detroit techno-this record is a testament to his timeless artistry. If you’re a purveyor of American techno and acid rooted in tradition but modernized to today’s high-quality production standards, then this is a must-have release for your collection.
Gilbert – Dream State [MOS037]
New slab of emotive jacking house from the M>O>S Camp. Bristol producer Gilbert returns for his second EP on the imprint and delivers four excellent dream-away-keep-on-dancing jams of pure house bleeps.
Nu Era – Electric Illusion [OMNI1206]
Ron Hardy – Classics #01 [RDYCS1]
The endless vaults of Ron Hardy continue to be mined, and continue to serve up timeless treasures that cut through as much ow as they did when the great man was tearing up the legendary Muzic Box in the Windy City all those years ago. Here we first get ‘Welcome To The Club’ edited by Hardy and awash with jazzy Rhodes jams and super raw drums. It’s the perfect mix of soulful spirituality and effective groove. On the flip is a classic amongst classics as ‘Peaches & Prunes’ rides on rugged drums and with fat synth twangs all loops, teased and layered up to great effect.
GǼG – Shake & Shout EP [LM003]
Lunatic Music presents Shake & Shout EP by GǼG, Monkey Timers and Keita Sano of Japan – dub, disco & mind-melting grooves with TRENT on remix duty.
Tom Bolas – DB12 018 [DB12018]
Berlin-based Tom Bolas has long been one of the most reliable re-editors on the Duca Bianca roster, regularly delivering inspired reworks of Balearic obscurities, flea market record finds and under-appreciated gems. Predictably, there’s a similar sonic aesthetic to his latest collection of re-cuts, his first for four years. Four groovers of Cosmic, Disco and Italo adventures for all.
J.E. Movement – Ma Dea Luv [AFS057]
J.E. Movement’s groundbreaking ‘Ma Dea Luv’. Toward the end of the 1980s South Africa’s recording industry was booming. Searching for a sound that could cross over to all in the country’s segregated society while also eyeing international success, a new duo emerged that quickly rendered its ‘bubblegum’ predecessors obsolete. Drawing on international trends and crafting lyrics for local ears, J.E. Movement – a duo made up of James Nyingwa and Elliot Faku – exploded onto the local scene with their debut album, ‘Ma Dea Luv’. The future had arrived. The six tracks on J.E. Movement’s 1988 debut give firm nods to UK Street Soul, New Jack Swing and Stock Aitken Waterman’s ‘Hit Factory’ sound and infuse them with an African rhythmic flair and homegrown lyrical sentiment.
