Love Has Come Around

Sorry all, have had a pretty lazy week. Have found so many amazing tunes though! Feels so good to hit the jackpot every once in a while. I'm so glad I've found this music to share to you wonderful internet surfing people/robots. Still feeling lazy so wording will be kept to a minimum.

Moxie put out amazing records. They are amazing. Some of them are particularly amazing. This is one of them. Bassline bassline bassline. Really old school groove, lots of bass, hot percussion, wakka wakka guitar, super compressed girly vocal crooning her 'baby'. All the necessary elements for quality funky disco.

Moxie - Karnemelk

Picked up the latest Future Classic release the other day. I looove it when the B2 track ends up being my favourite! Azul Blue is so awesome.. A light jazzy vamp gets bitch slapped about by a thick throaty acid line. Also, djhistory's Tele Music Remixed compilation only came to my attention the other day after about a year of sneaking under my radar. Unbelievably quality release. This Toby Tobias mix is pretty galactic, fairly funky and a tad glammy. Groovy stuff.

Toby Tobias - Azul Blue

Tele Music - Phantom Rock (Toby Tobias Mix)

Also on that release are these two gems. Thank god Meteor One got edited into a playable song - have been waiting yonks for that. Beautifully done by Bonar Bradberry! And naturally the Prins Thomas edit is pure Norwegian gold. Go grab this release if you can, it's seriously packed with beautiful music.

Arpadys - Meteor One (Bonar Bradberry Edit)

Tele Music - Black Cars (Prins Thomas Edit)

I don't understand myself.. I don't understand why I never bothered to listen to the original of this song. I don't know why I assumed that the Special Disco Version edit had to be 10 times better and it wouldn't be worth my time hearing this. Late is marginally better than never though. Thank god I came to my senses because this is so so so much better.

So much more music to come! Excited!

Discoteca Authentica

My last morning in Sydney for 10 weeks! Crazy. I've got the BARE bones of 10 more posts ready to flesh out and post while I'm in South Amerry, so with any luck nobody will go hungry. Although if my ipod gets lost/stolen there's a good chance I won't have any idea what I'm talking about with half of the tracks, so let's hope that doesn't happen! There's a lot of stuff being heaved out from the vault since I can't really be finding new music, but I think it should all be pretty decent! Anyway.....

Super authentic funky disco from France! Arpadys' self titled 1977 release seems to be the only thing these guys put out under this name, but it's HOT. A couple of their songs remind me of Space a bit, though maybe a touch less spacey. Monkey Star in particular makes me think of them. Stone Roller does a bit too, but with a bit more funkfunk. PS, man this Space video rocks.

Be cool kids this summer/winter! Details of my escapades will be on offer for those who wish to feign interest.
