THINGS TO CHECK OUT

Weather report says that the week end will suck, a lot of people will need to kill some time and I’m here to help. Our boy Funkabit just unleashed a new mixtape, Funkabit – Too hot to handle #2, it starts with one of the hit of 2012 and goes underground in a matter of minutes, an hour goes buy quickly.

Rambla Boys released a rmx pack on our beloved label last week, you can check a few very good mixtapes featuring a bunch of those tracks, the most notable of them being the C90′s , the release is climbing the charts, number 25 in the deep house juno chart it’s the one that made me laugh, much better result in the nu disco chart…

If you are in Re-edit mode be sure to check out this gem by Bottin, yes it’s friday baby.

love!

Rambla Boys – Cocomero Remixed

Cocomero” is my favorite track on Rambla Boy’s stellar “Valderambla EP”. Mellow and groovy, the perfect track for that last cold beer at sunset.

I was a bit skeptical about a remix ep. I had gotten my hands dirty on that track already for the first release and, after some failed attempts, I resigned. I can’t make something good when i like it so much. As time passed, some awesome remixes popped into my mail box. I went back to my remix and figured that my shit wasn’t too bad. Check this out, you won’t be disappointed.

Support by : Ajello, Andrea Esu, Attar!, Billy Bogus, Brioski, Club Silencio, Cosmonauts, Debonair, Douze, Faze Action, Of Norway, Roberto Rodriguez, Scuola Furano, Romain Coulon, Renaud Deru, Gmgn, Galactik Knights

B.JINX – SAVE ME ep

I’m on a rush, leaving for a US tour in 2 days and trying to do everything i should do in the next month before Easter, pay the rent and bills, go see my grandma, update the web site, soundcloud, Facebook, Twitter, send that contrat, listen to 1000 demos……. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! SAVE ME!!!!!!! Yes i had to find a small story about this ep but i totally feel like that guy on the cover.
What we have today is a new ep from the US born and Korean resident B.Jinx. Save me got my attention instantly, it reminds me about the good old Masters At Work tunes, house with that deep feeling, that perfect rough sample looped to death that keeps you on the floor, well i’m going to play that a lot, check it out!

Chromatics – Kill For Love (Night Riders Version)

Chromatics just released a new single on the Italians Do It Better label (i don’t know why but i love the name of the label…) on March the 26th, Night Riders reworked the track and it’s just beautiful, i wish i had this for the “free Kids Rentals” compilation, check it out!

NIGHT RIDERS – 1984

Night Riders are back, back in 1984, 1984 might be just the title but it certainly tells a lot of what you’ll find here, there is that John Carpenter’s soundtrack feeling mixed with the occasional electro beats (Afrika Bambata not Justice), Giorgio Moroder style arpeggios dancing around warm vocals, a general obscure and dark vibe that suddenly explodes into spring when the disco conga kicks in, time to go to the beach.
Recorded between Bologna and Pariswith Frank Agrario and so a lot of analog gear, so organic you can almost
smell it, it’s really something special. Go Riders!

GIORGIO MORODER – E=MC2 (GMGN Remix)
