Introducing Kon's forthcoming compilation album 'Kon & The Gang', we are delighted to present this 12" sampler featuring two incredible cuts taken from the LP, as well as an exclusive remix from Caserta. Opening track 'Timeless' could hardly be more aptly named. Sublime, smokey piano touches on the intro give way to an uplifting, languid disco track, jammed full of sunshine. Catchy vocal snippets, rock solid bass and guitar licks build up the groove beautifully alongside Kon's trademark staccato, squelchy synth chord stabs. On the flip-side Truccy (better known as Compost's Rainer Trüby and Corrado Bucci) present 'Closer', another sun-drenched groove with definite Balearic touches. Jazzy chords and touching vocals (performed by the duo themselves with assistance from Nicolas "Michael Ellis" Rogoll) lend the track a distinctly 'live' feel. Boston producer and mix engineer Caserta closes out proceedings with his remix of friend and musical collaborator Kon's 'Timeless'. Highlighting piano loops and synth stabs from the original version, his rework moves the track seamlessly into Deep House territory, with smoothly rolling percussion and a hypnotic arrangement. A delicious taste of what's to come from 'Kon & Gang', this limited 12" is surely going to be essential listening this summer.

London 2016, the rebirth of underground Soulful Disco keeps unfolding with more power than ever before, and Los Charly's Orchestra stay firm and loyal to their authenticity after almost a decade its beginning.LCO gets together with old friend, lead singer, vocal arranger Andre Espeut in order to produce their latest Soulful-Disco conveyor which is due to drop on the online shops as well as record stores under the name of "Sunshine" beginning of June.Following the Earth Wind & Fire vibe from LCO's previous single: "All Around The World" and also paying tribute to Disco/Soul legend: Maurice White who unfortunately joined the list of "departed music legends" quite recently, here it comes this brand new release. 

HOLY GRAIL LA/VEG VERSION OF :" MOVE EVERYTHING YOU GOT " -originally released in 1981, and now included B-side with never ever released before mid 80's MODERN FUNK / MODERN SOUL jam : " ANTICIPATION "FIRST TIME EVER ON 12-inch 45rpm vinylTHE L.S. MOVEMENT BAND originally from :SAN BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA ..." THE LARRY SMITH MOVEMENT BAND "MOVE EVERYTHING YOU GOT was such a hit in 1981 it had been remade and remixed into 2 other different versions.One was under the alternative band name " THUNDDER " on PPL records ... Then after it was remixed again on RCA label with different production.But by far this original LA/VEG (Las Vegas-recording studio location) version, is the heaviest and hardest hitting version of the 3 ... Previous auction prices for the original have soared passed $1000 dollars easily ...For the love of the music and keeping the funk alive, City Of Dreams Records & Tapes has made it affordable and attainable for the people on 12-inch vinyl record, with a special never ever heard mid 80's Modern-Funk / Modern-Soul release on the flip side. The track " ANTICIPATION " was brought back to life by " DISCO " Johnny Williams, who is also featured on the chorus, and blessed by Larry Smith's magic touch on the synthesizer keyboards and drum machine. Both sides represents the true funk sound of the early and mid 1980's.

It's a big one, a third previously unreleased Raspuitins stash LP, half of which was thought to be lost. Just recently it turned up in a Chicago warehouse and we managed to get out hands on it. With the blessing of Paul Coleman (Rasputins Stash member) we reunited the masters with the remainder of the tapes residing in Curtom archive to complete the LP, Huge!Tip on hand made sleeve Unreleased 3rd LP from Recovered tapes Stolen in the 70s

The Fantasy Touch EP by Midnight Runners delves deep into the sounds of Modern Funk, Disco, Boogie, and Electro, and features vocals by Megan Doherty (of Social Lovers) on the tracks “Disco Is A Dirty Word” and “Fantasy Touch.”

Ptaki take another journey with the Transatlantyk imprint to bring you the remixes of their well received debut album. Alongside an unreleased dub from the 'Przelot' sessions, you'll find two great reworks here, both by contemporary heroes of the fast rising Polish House scene.The real gem here is Eltron's 10 minute version of 'Sloneczny Pyl', taking a whole A Side for a reason. It's a straight up peak-time House banger destined for summer jam status. The catchy female vocal loop from the ambient original is surrounded here by a massive warm bassline running on a dubwise tip, layered tribal drums and percussions, and a few cisterns of raw, oily effects, guitar licks and pouring keyboard pads. And that enormous breakdown too...Eltron's trademark 'big room deep' vibe mixed with Ptaki's slice of sampled psychedelia created a track that's already a road-tested crowd favourite.Das Komplex take on 'Ostatni Kurs' is no different in being amazing, although it's destined for a different time of the party. Cinematic atmosphere of the original is maintained and developed into Jazz-funkin' slice of slow House music. Ptaki's melancholic samples are set together with island-like flavours of horn section, walking disco bassline and tons of sensimilla-infused effects. Another great track from the most talented Polish newcomer.Last but not least is 'Taniec Na Wodzie'. This dubby original brings you folky guitars, flutes, organs, synths and pianos working closely with hypnotic rhythm. Clocking at 63bpm, this one is for the afternoon at the beach.

Double LP, Gatefold Jacket w/ Download Card & Printed InsertBADBADBADNOTGOOD is the talented young quartet of Matthew Tavares on keys, Chester Hansen on bass, Alex Sowinski on drums & Leland Whitty on saxophone. They formed and became inseparable friends at Humber College's Music Performance program in 2011 and have been on a critically acclaimed, rule bending musical journey ever since. BBNG took the music world by storm with their 2014 LP, III, a brash yet refined record of angular jazz improvisations, lush ballads, kraut rock, & futuristic hip-hop tinged rhythms which led to a couple years of touring the world & collaborating with some of the best and brightest artists around the globe. The boys are back with the new album IV, their most impressive and highly anticipated project yet. IV continues their forward thinking progression, sounding something like a jam session in space between Can, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock's Headhunters, Weather Report, Arthur Russell & MF DOOM.With tracks like "Time Moves Slow" featuring haunting vocals from Sam Herring of Future Islands, the syncopated groove of "Lavender," a collaboration with Montreal based producer Kaytranada, the rumbling fusion build of "Confessions Pt. II" featuring Colin Stetson on the bass sax, "Love" which is highlighted with smokey left field raps from Mick Jenkins & the epic chords of "Speaking Gently," IV is an exploration in post-genre virtuosity.
