In keeping with recent posts, we’re pleased to present a delightfully smooth remix from none other than ole’ frank knuckles, stamping his own chicago warehouse style firmly on the Chaka Khan classic, it’s a dub so the vocal appears late on, just teasing us. Great stuff!

Let’s stoke the ole’ fire a little with another great remix from MAW,….here they’ve totally flipped Trey Lorenz’s slow and emotional ‘Photographs of Mary’ into an upbeat soulful house bomb, all to easily…. Rolling beats & shuffling snares, classic 90’s kipper!

This track defines SLEAZE. Absolute filth, We were having difficulties tracking this version down, but here she is. This is exactly the kinda’ kipper you could expect from one of the darker themed Optimo nights up in Glasgow.  Frankie Knuckles = pure New York slime. We love.

Sometimes, even when you’ve got over 200gb of music on your computer, your mind can go blank when it comes to thinking up something interesting to post…..a simple way to remedy this minor stress is to type a random word into the finder, and post everything that comes up. Today, I typed in BAM, and here’s what you get!

The edit of this track has become this years biggest dddddisco hit! on the wonderful Tiger & Woods – Gin Nation. File this track with the likes of ‘The Revenge- Night Flight‘ and Marke’s R&B Drunkie- its an instant classic. Another case for the edits, looks like they are still doing it for us, just need to keep adding your own spice. The original is a funk great, with its heavy bass-lead there is no way you cant get up and dance stupid to it.

The boys over at Leftside wobble really have done justice to this Beatles classic! A feat not to be laughed at, this was a daring move, tackling the Beatles. But they’ve done a great job, also using the break from Sgt Pepper (the reprise version) as the underlaying backbone of the track. The big long intro is almost demented in character with wailing animal like vocal squels and rolling drums accompanied with trippy guitar stabs before the vocal seals the deal! Awesome.

Keeping things deep I’ve got two cracking beautiful soulful house reworks from Motor City Drum Ensemble, who time and time again hit the nail on the head with his signature old school drum patterns and thoughtful pastiche keys.

Over the past few years MCDE has really soared from their humble beginnings to leading the pack with their (previously posted) Raw Cut’s serious getting by absolutely everyone!

Flying Lotus’ third studio album, 2010’s Cosmogramma, will have a tough task following 2008’s sublime L.A. In the mean time though A Decade of Flying Lotus, as mixed by Gaslamp Killer, will have to do. Whether or not it’s overly self-indulgent, a gesture of goodwill (released on Christmas day) or just blatant self-promotion, it’s worth a listen.

Killer edit of  ’Clan of xymox’ track A day from the championed glasgow local Betty Botox, one half of the mighty Optimo duo. Big industrial grimey opening which drop into a totally awesome cosmic italo synth line, top stuff, and thankfully removes the fucking awful vocal from the original. This has just been released on Botox’s G4 faggot edit’s album, which you can pick up at Juno. Well worth checking out. Preview only.

Here’s some of our signature sleaze served up, swimming in a pool of grease with extra sauce. On the chop is none other than the Terje with Baris K performing salad duties. Todd’s edit of Fizheuer Zieheuer stick far closer to the original, adding some cheeky rolling drums. Baris does his usual shit, digging up slabs of Turkish folk and giving them a floor friendly makeover.

The thing i really love about this track (well this recording) is how truly rough and ready it is, little double beats here and there, bass cutting it out and back, hat pitch frequency moving up and down….it really captures the raw live vibe, you really feel as if someone is just twiddling with knobs (which they are)…..Its got a great tough dark beat and i’ve seen this totally destroy Fabric before. Enjoy.

Slimey acid madness here in the form of Abe Duque’s classic remix of Miss Kitten’s classic – Requiem for a hit. I remember hearing this every week in the bar of Belfast’s almighty Shine back in the good old days. Abe’s trademark sleaze and wooden block give this a familiar yet original feel. Perfect to give the night a darker vibe.

I’ve had this sitting on my hard drive for ages and ages, thought i’d give her a home on here. It’s a rip of a great mindless boogie track from a while ago. Great whaling synths and an awesome guitar solo matched with a suitably constant beat and bass, will surely lower you nicely into some very twisted late night action. This is very sleazy. Enjoy.

Hears a cracking re-edit from Keith McIvor (JD Twitch), one of the legends behind Optimo.  Its a bootleg from Richie Havens track, ‘going back to my roots’. Crazy oldschool piano action with a strong punch in the overall sound. Real nice rough vibe on this workout of a classic from the super soulful Havens.

Its been out for years but still on the market and you can buy it anywhere decent, so I’m afraid just a preview for now.
