Best of the Week: 10/03/2010
This week we are blessed with some true disco throwback goodness, with a singer famed for her mid-nineties sounding the business on top of a killer rhythm, a new Australian outfit given the treatment from a producer moving into the big league, then into a an edit that is crafted to perfection over slow and low funk, before we finish with some futuristic electronica some Philly’s grime king in a more reflective mode, and another eccentric individual from the north of England.
Great track out on DFA here from Ray Mang, this tune updates a George Clinton funk jam into a new disco anthem featuring a great vocal from Lady Miss Kier/Ray Mang-Bulletproof (feat. Lady Miss Kier)
New Modular signings The Swiss feature the talented Sidwho? This remix from Hamburg’s Tensnake will appeal to fans of Permanent Vacation’s recent output, mixing German engineering with cosmic disco overtones, and the results are very cool/The Swiss-Manthem (Tensnake remix)
This brilliant edit by Canadian Eddie C sits somewhere between disco, early rap, and 80’s boogie, and is crafted so lovingly that it is absolutely dripping in soulful goodness/Eddie C-Hold On
Philadelphia based grime producer Starkey continues to astound with his broad body of work. Whether it be his darker side, or like this cut, his more reflective. This is a producer demanding your attention right now/Starkey-Stars (feat. Anneka)
Another producer making exciting electronica right now is Werk Discs main man Actress, who has quietly been creating some noise since 2004, yet this remix of Girl Trouble favourite Joy Orbison plus some co-productions with Zomby seem to finally be getting this artist the attention he deserves/Joy Orbison-The Shrew Would Have Cushioned the Blow (Actress’ Neu Haus So-Glo Mix)
Support these producers; get their music here-Picadilly, Bleep, Rush Hour, Conch, Samurai
