PLUGSSS


Alright Sydney folk, listen good. We're doing a combined Death Strobe / Disco Delicious 3rd birthday party next Friday the 28th at Gilligans (Sydney) which will be super duper spectacular!! We'll be joined by a few special friends, but expect a minimum 4 hour set from Ash and I slopping out the discoest disco imaginable. I'm woeful at promoting so any help with spreading the word to wonderful dancing people would be greatly appreciated! First 50 people in get a CD of some disco faves of ours, including some tricky-to-find gems. Clickity click the flyer for deets.



Okies, now that's out of the way we can get down to business. Sounds Superb Vol. 7 was released digitally this week. No further explanation needed. As usual, In Flagranti deliver a finely balanced edits package. Vet is a classic soulful disco-funk groover, nice and simple, a great early dancefloor jam. Ahem is a dirty retro thumper saturated in Codek quirk and featuring a quick snake charmer break or two. I Sing sits more in the strange department - African chanting and warped hand drums that could make a great DJ tool if you're clever. Too easy!

I'd love if somebody could confirm for me if this is actually a legitimate Todd Terje edit of Chic's My Forbidden Lover. It's released on the same kind of white label with only the catalogue number on a sticker as many of his others have been, but I'm just not convinced by the editing style. It's still a really fun edit but all the effects and jagged cuts seem a bit un-Toddlike to me. Whatever, this is one of those tunes you really can't go wrong with.

Chic - My Forbidden Lover (Tangoterje Re-Edit)

Real fab acidic remix from Liv Spencer and DJ Spun of this track by James Chance & The Contortions. Picnic are hosting Spun on June 12th at The Civic - it's a collaboration with Adult Disco and should be a fucking killer party. And yeah, this tune is great.

Lastly, this is the edit of D Train's 'Keep On' that was featured in Jacques Renault's Ones & Twos mix that I was wailing about a few weeks ago. This is ridiculously good stuff by Space Ranger! Would still love to know what the instrumental half of it is though, I heard somebody playing the original track recently but didn't catch the name. Spot away, spotters!

Have a great weekend, hope to see you kids next Friday!! xx

I see what you mean about the Terje..

According to Discogs it is a Todd Terje Remix. It is listed as unofficial though. So, not much help there. He has a tendency to do this. On his release "Remaster of the Universe" (which is remixes/edits by him) appears a new moniker called "Chuck Norris" with no reference to the remixer??

A strange fella that one. But damnit, he makes my feet move.

DUUUDE Just got that Space Rangers vinyl ... it kills.

Barry said...

hey that D-train mix you are looking for is the original instrumental DUB of "Keep On"... I think its a francois K mix? anyway its definitely on the original 12"!!

being only three and a bit minutes long its been crying out for an extension and Space ranger did a top job.. ou may also want to take a look at the new Plimsoll release which is an edit of Elvis.

Cheers

Whoever's behind it, this ain't a patch on the Friend edit of this tune from a couple of years back. It was in Palmsout remix Sunday #122.

Big love to Disco Delicious from La France. I've popped my comment cherry!

I got Todd Terje's edit of Chic's Everybody Dance on the same kind of white label with just a sticker with cat# and that type of edit sounds very similar to this one, so it should be Todd even if it sounds unlike previous stuff.

chris keys said...

Todd has nothing to do with those bootlegs, it's guys making vinyl out of mp3's found on the net. yes the material is his, but someone in france is making a whole lot of money and some very bad sounding boots from unknown sources. i wouldnt support them if i were you guys, even if some of the tracks are amazing... although to be honest i dont really know if that particular chic edit is actually his.. why not just ask him.

andy webb said...

yeah i knew they were all bootlegs, and i totally agree with you - this is actually the only one i've bought just out of sheer curiosity because it sounded so unlike a terje edit.

you're right, i really should just ask him :)

I've been trying to ID this track off the Jacques mix - at last!!! Cheers.
