Astrolab - Come My Way Jan 20, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
Come My Way is based on a MASSIVE bassline, upon which a 'super hooky' full male vocal sits. The beats are chuggy with breakbeat sections & there’s a big guitar riff moment that is repeated throughout the track underneath the other elements. A big room track with a commercial edge yet a supersize nasty bassline that gives it club rawness. The Spincycle remix is a completely different kettle of fish! It’s a mega chunky house track with a heavy jazzy garage influence. The beats are crisp, tight & swing like Tarzan! The bassline is big & bouncy & complimented with some wicked jazzy key playing. With a catchy high pitched riff & minimalist use of the vocal this clever reconstruction will appeal to a completely different listener than the original amd does serious damage on the dancefloor according to Danny Tenglia and Ed Case amongst others!
"First...it was the light, then... it came the darkness! No man uppon the earth, was able to see the sun...the moon, or the stars! It's about time to let yourself go, release yourself to the light...respect your inner soul... just remember... ALWAYS, SHINE ON!" With this massive dark vocal, and with thrilling tribal-progressive beats, "Shine On", especially Carlos Manaça Remix has had great support and playing in Portugal. One of Magna's most notorious relesases.
Splashfunk - Shuttle Apr 02, 2004
A floorfiller track for extreme dancefloors. Costantino Padovano made a very good work, inventing a kind of music which is made up of house grooves and tek-house breaks. There are three version on 12", produced by Funky Junction & Splash Funk: "Up Lifting Mix", "Remix by Funky Junction" and "The Slow Jam Mix". All the tracks are good to play during the club live sets.
Sheba Records Apr 02, 2004
"Sheba Records" was the first step to the creation of the actual "Sheeva Records", sub-label of VOTU Recs. (Voice Of The Underground Records).
This Hardcore "Gallinero" has, only in mid'2003, get some support in Portugal! With its expresive vocal lyrics, it has been a real banger all over the country. A group of "dj's" self-named "PANDILHA" proclaimed "El Gallinero" the best song of all times. This group is radicated in Portugal.
1st production from this young portuguese producer, Michael C, born in Funchal (Madeira). After the "much talked" "Feelings", that has not been (officialy) released, Michael C give us on of the most tribal MONSTERS of late 2003, with dj support all over the world.
This track uses the USL (Underground Sound of Lisbon - Danny Tenaglia,Rui Da Silva & Tó Pereira [Dj Vibe]) "So Get Up" Acappella, that in the early 90's begin to change the dance scene in Portugal.
