So the very first FlinkMaPingo is just round the corner and to help us get a little more excited than we already are are some free edits from Zombie Disco Squad’s Nat Self to get you all in the mood!
Join us tomorrow night at Dalston’s Visions bar and grab your £5 tickets from Resident Advisor!
An absolutely magical package coming in March on Airtight Recordings. They’ve taken four classic Larry Heard cuts from his ’95 album ‘Dance 2000′ on Distance, and handed over the reins to four huge new-skool producers to do their worst/best?!
What we are delivered from that premise is an unmistakable Julio Bashmore haunting bounce of ‘And So I Dance’ that was featured on his recent Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1. This is followed by some deep shuffled goodness from newcomers Mak and Pasteman on ‘Futuristic Island Life.’
On the reverse we’ve got a luuuush deep boogie edit of ‘Gentle Warming Sun’ from Wolf+Lamb and then everything is neatly finished off with a slow machine-funk rendition of ‘Long Short Story’ from disco behemoth The Emperor Machine.
Quite the package I think you’ll agree…
Time for a little Faze Action action as the January mixes keep rolling in… No tracklist but just reliable good disco!
Some more late night clicks and bleeps… this time from house veterans Steve Conry and Iain MacPherson who team up to make No Use. Throw in a slooooow and hazy remix from Craig Bratley and an energetic old school pumper version from OOFT! and you’ve got yourself an audible party.
Some seriously strong old school party grooves coming out of Jay Shepheard’s Retrofit label… The next release is from Shep’ N Wily and has more old sounding samples, grooves and synths than a mere man can handle.
Will be available on vinyl 30th Jan, downloads shortly after.
