Feel my Bicep

Some more Cosmic funk. Another nice n nasty release on New York’s finest Salsoul Records, spreading disco throughout our lives. I like the synth breakdown/ solo type thing in it- for me this sums up a lot of 80s music but is rarely heard in ze disco- unlike 80s glam rock which required at least one 3 minute solo where the reset of the band can get get smack up in the interval.

While he’s not mooching around in Leeds listening to other people music and running 2020’s remix agency, Bonar knocks out some tasty swirling cosmic greatness. This relentless building track has perfect warm up vibes to get any night rocking.  Enjoy.

“The Sorcerer conjures brimstone from guitars, casts spells with drum machines, spooks out synthesizers, and mesmerizes fragments of sampled sound.”

This track is a nice short cosmic jam with a really funk bassline, Ghost in the machine vibes!

“Robotwerke, aka Dieter Kolb and Franz Aumüller, were one of the first groups to experiment with electronic music in the mid-60s, inventing some of the first self-made drum machines. Their fans include such luminaries as Herbie Hancock, Afrika Bambaataa, Sven Vath and Kraftwerk. Since the 60’s they had allowed themselves to become more and more inspired by the Caribbean sounds of steeldrum and Soca, and developed their own brand of Soca influenced funky disco electro.

I see stars is glistening cosmic belter packed fulla gayness and sparkly synths.

Even Missy Elliot sampling ‘Clear’ cant kill the classic cosmic groove. Everyone knows this one, unfortunately more than likely the sampled version  nowadays. Big fans of Atkins and Davis, check out some of our earlier posts on these guys.

Fresh off the press, an awesome space disco interpretation of the Bee Gees’ tune “one”. A fine example to put those “too many edits” shouts to bed, definitely one of the best edits we have heard in a long time! To be fair its more of a full on remix rather than an edit, Rayko has literally sapped all that was good about the original and sandwiched it into this huge cosmic chugger.

This is the soundtrack to the ‘Greyhan’, an evil scientist and highly dangerous man, who conducts experiments on the bodies of woman, whom he has snatched and brought to his Sharman Laboratories.  He must be stoppped.

Been listening to loads of the creatures recently, found some great tracks, amidst the many questionable ones, as with most italo. Here we have some big whaling analog synths building into a futuristic spacey soundscape, great for opening a set or possibly usable as an interlude.

This is a pretty special post, especially if your as big a Fleetwood Mac fan as we are. Over the past year or so, we’ve been hunting hard for any edits and remixes of Fleetwood/Stevie Nicks. Here is the best of ‘em!
Rather varied….with some taking a cosmic disco twist, others a more dubby jazz affair, and one which is an all out 1980’s drum machine overload! 

Enjoy!

Perfect sunday morning Italo-Cosmic disco, this beauty was released on Clone back in 2006 and I heard it out for the fist time last night. It makes me want to grow a moustache and put on a white suit with 3 sets of shoulder-pads.

Leda – Endless Race

Found this french 70’s space rock band earlier. They’ve got some cool synth-rich tracks and even a robotic vocoder cover of the Canned Heat classic ”On the road again”.
Galactic sleaze!
