Feel my Bicep

Bicep are stompin into a monday moring to this perfect theme tune. The crossover italo / house/ disco ‘M.B.O. Theme’ sounds like the dirty work of a clone between Morodor and Mr Fingers. Funky bassline that would shake anyfloor!

listen now for the handclaps!

WOW completely forgot about this track, absolute gold. Thanks to the Disco Bloodbath for including the dub in their BIS mix to refresh my memory.

Forgotten track produced by the legendary Paul Simpson. Very much in the same style as his more well known productions “Treat Her Sweeter” and “You Don’t Know”. The sound is very Larry Levan with a FAT monster bassline that hooks you straight away, the power female vocals can put some people off but happily there is a dub version available. If you like the vocal sound of the Paradise Garage around this time, then definitely worth checking out! – as Another_Swede put it.

Have been holding these for a while, but thought it would be fitting to post them on remembrance day.  There was no official 12″ release but the song found it’s way onto many important dj playlists especially those who embraced the sleaze, morning music genre such as Larry Levan, Lary Sanders. Here are some remasters straight from the Bootlegs.

Also here is a fantastic Larry Levan mix from 1985, notice the diverse playlist and the unique cutting of tracks a rare feat these days through djs who merely beat-match and rarly experiment on vinyl without ’stabilisers’ like serato or traktor. The art of a dj is slowly die-ing out, anyone can beatmatch,  only  few can select or were born with two 1210’s as hands like Levan!

If ever there was a match made in heaven like, Paradise Garage’s Larry Levan and Grace Jones. I don’t know what to say, in their own right both are absolute legends and this edit is up there with each other’s finest work- disco at the top of it’s game. RIP
