Here’s a cheeky sneak peak at one of the tracks we’re going to be dropping early next year! It’s called $tripper… it’s a story about sleaze fueled lust and it’s gonna be pumped on the new label LOVE FEVER! (you know the awesome London parties…)

Found this tune on the delectable YINGYANGS a while back and thought I’d share. Ryuichi (a man from Japan) and David (a man from the pop group Japan) on the benefits of living in homes made of panda food.

One of my favourites of the Editions Disco series, always goes down well epically when you play the Frenchkiss mix by accident which i have done manys a time ;) a genius reworking of Gary Low’s “I Want You”, the Italo-disco track that is the sampled basis for Washed Out’s chillwave anthem “Feel It All Around”.
The original is a wicked slice of Italo built on a punchy synth bassline that would be equally at home in a classic Michael Jackson or Human League hit, shimmering keyboard hooks, and epic percussion fills that’s marred only by a little too much of the old formaggio in the vocal department. By stripping out the offending verses and working some of his trademark mix-friendly editing magic on the arrangement, Prince Language has created a dancefloor bomb that’s been wreaking havoc on his recent tours of Europe and Australia, and of course the usual dirty New York City jams!

Dropped on EastWest Records America back in 94′ big soulfull house vocals layer with some heavy beatz. One of my secret weapons which I jus noticed on Juno …some dudes have done a kinda bootleg edit of it, nice EP but if you are just after this track the vinyl still only like £2 on discogs.

New one on UNO marking their 10th release, ‘lovesick’ is a gothy industrial synth excursion through 80′s NYC. Covered in sleaze and haunting tones.Mixes on this EP from In Flagranti and Pink Stallone, heavy cut!

Luscious blissed out lounge vibes from our pals TDRMC! Lovely warm summer beats that beg for a big fuckin’ festival yacht party and some scantily clad beauties! Croatia…here we come! Keep your eyes peeled and your for their upcoming release on Let’s Play House which is a packed full of burners including the bomb ‘Faith’ which has been in almost every single one of our sets since September!

I’m not ashamed to say, I’ve plenty of time for RNB. All those sleazy silked out jams conjuring up images of decadent parties, booty and Cristal! Some of my favourites you can find here, here and here. Anyway, over the past year we’ve seen them creeping back into tracks and what better an example that Perseus’s ‘Running back to you’ (out on French Express) taking the vocal from Ashanti’s soulful bomb ‘Foolish’. He’s added some outstanding keys (although they do slightly remind me of Julio Bashmore’s remix of Classix…not that that’s a bad thing). On repeat.

Another monday, another FMB exclusive. Our boy Greymatter from the almighty Wolf pack has reworked our label friends The Rapture. Greymatter and the wolves are fuckin killing it at the moment, with a He’s taken Luke’s vocal and created a mesmerising low slung warehouse beefer that’s gonna got great crossover potential. Check out Wolf’s soundcloud here and Greymatter’s here. Our friend John Malcom Moore has also done a video ahead of working the visuals at Greymatter’s upcoming live sets (debuted at Tief in April… DO NOT FUCKING MISS THIS)

Stripped Goa vibes, was really surprised when I couldn’t find any full length’s of this on the internet. Heavy house beats and killer guitar shred. The Beloved ran into a bit of trouble over the vocal sample on this track (the one that appears just after the title in the chorus). It actually came from “A Feather On The Breath Of God“, an album of 12th-century plainsong released by the tiny independent label Hyperion, who not unnaturally were rather miffed that they hadn’t been asked! In the end they settled out of court for a modest sum. The same sample turned up again the following year in Orbital’s seminal “Belfast”, but this time it was properly credited, with Hyperion getting their rightful cut.

Amazing experimental track from Claude’s limited edition cd One.Nine.Eight.Four which was released back in 05′. Proper 80′s inspired techno, in my head I imagine Jan Hammer, Theo Parrish and Plasikman all jammin’ this one out. Routed in Detroit but firmly intergalactic.

Timeless classic produced by Godwin Logie and mixed by Larry Levan over 20 years ago, and sounding as fresh as ever. Beautiful use of dynamics on this track, lots of movement in the drums and amazing use of panning on the hats… a testament of oldschool production, an art that has been lost slightly in the digital movement.
