Fleeting Wax is a new label by Basel DJs Mehmet Aslan and Miajica from Alma Negra, whose fame has spread far and beyond Switzerland. The EP contains three striking edits from the reaches of what could be considered world disco in the widest sense of the word. It's fair to say that this is the embodiment of a now-familiar Basel sound - all sultry playfulness, Turkish delights and sun-drenched pop-not-pop. The first is Tai's "Schlager Edit", built on a combo of hypnotic Marimba-dreaming and that irresistibly sugary voice. Istanbul digger DJ Fattish immerses himself into the singer-songwriter wealth of his country. And label co-owner Miajica weds Italian cantautore passion to the dancefloor. With it's first release, Fleeting Wax clearly lives up to it's romantic promise: Unearthing forgotten relics and infusing sleeping beautys with new life.
