Marco Bailey - Faint Hope
posted a review of Marco Bailey - Faint Hope. over 8 years ago
If you got here, you discovered one of my favorite hidden gems after 20 years of diggin'. 'Faint Hope' is much like Frank Wilson's Northern Soul classic 'Do I love you'. Literally everybody who I play this song to is dancing on it. From the garbage... See full review

Banzai were the very first group on a 1 day musical event in 1974 what later became Rock Werchter. They only released one album because their record company went bankrupt.

For records like these the word 'Masterpiece' was invented. If you haven't heard it yet, praise yourself lucky and do yourself a favor: do not listen to the tracks separately but listen to the whole album with a good glass of red wine on a pair of... See full review

posted a review of The Whispers - Planets Of Life. over 12 years ago
"Planets Of Life" was edited by 6th Borough Project. Expect one of the best funk songs you'll ever hear in your life. It reminds me of the best live moments of Prince.
Hard Ton (2) - Not Again E.P.
posted a comment on Hard Ton (2) - Not Again E.P.. over 13 years ago
The title track "Not Again" is a glorious combination of fully primed drum machine funk, rich analogue bass, raved up keyboard stabs, deviating acid lines and of course Hard Ton's singularly unique holler. The ever dependable Snuff Crew are a perfect... See full review

Rare and obscure 12" that explores the frontiers between cosmic, late italo and proto-house.

The Rolls Royce of all Prince bootlegs, because it was recorded by the sound engineer (who got fired), whilst all other bootlegs of aftershows and secret shows are audience recordings. Despite the amazing guitar play, vibe and excellent sound quality,... See full review

There's not much info out there about this artist or this track and it seems to be the only thing she ever did. Anyhow, her semi-kinda-half-assed vocals are pretty cool and the producer did some really nice vocal work in post-production. Nu disco fans... See full review
Rubber Room - Taliban Discotheque / Tonight's The Night

"Taliban Discotheque" is a rerub of the impossible to find "El Fen", which is the B-side of "Yemma", a 12" from 1976, both sung by the deceased Kabyle folk singer Aït Meslayene who was forced by his manager to make a disco record. This is a complete... See full review

Ammi Mislayenne was a Kabyle traditional singer who moved to Paris to try his luck. He was driven by an Algerian manager who pushed him to make a "disco" album, a new trend at that time!

Great cover LP on which NDW-classics get a more electro-touched rework. Andrews' versions are cooler and more restrained, but classy and more suitable for dancefloor use.
Four Below Zero - My Baby's Got E.S.P.

A Patrick Adams signed, philly-styled uplifting northern soul disco rarity with Four Top-esque harmonious vocals and the intricate string figures that were to become Patrick's trademark.
Ozo - Anambra
posted a review of Ozo - Anambra. over 19 years ago
Hypnotizing, classic slow (80-90 BPM) and moody african-chant style recording that was David Mancuso's closing favourite and massive with DJ Sasha at the heart of his anthemic early 90's DJ sets!
Tina Turner - I Can't Stand The Rain b/w Let's Pretend We're Married
posted a review of Tina Turner - I Can't Stand The Rain b/w Let's Pretend We're Married. over 19 years ago
Originally performed by one of the song's co-writers, Ann Peebles, Tina Turner gives this soul classic a slow, vibrant and cosmic feeling. Nice sunset stuff.
Bobby Patterson - Groove Me

Bobby Patterson appears on numerous 60's and 70's 45ers, but this is the only 12" he ever released under his own name.

"Groove Me" is a fat funk stomper. Imagine an obscure funk band playing in a New Orleans cellar, stirred up by the shouting,... See full review

A song to dance on with moonboots, leg warmers and headphones on. French vocodered italo with extraterrestial lyrics doesn't get any better than this!

This is definitely one of the finest northern soul stompers in music history, and a killer vocal performance by Gloria Jones. Forget Soft Cell, thé version was recorded twenty years earlier. 6/5 rated record!

"Too Much Blood" right is destabalising, rich, rock, electro, disco, it has heavy basslines, weird vocals, voodoo rhythms everything a dj needs to let explode the place. Wonderf******ful!!

I don't know who came first, this blokes or Inner City. But their piano riffs are very similar. This classic can without a doubt be compared with 'Good Life', with that difference that you rarely hear this record on an evening out. This is one of that... See full review

One of those massively popular LP's for soul & raregroove lovers, produced by Roy Ayers, with at least four huge tracks including their great version of 'Sunshine'. 'Daylight' was also sampled by TCQ on 'Bonita Applebum'.

John Luongo did a hell of a remix job here. Compared to the original, this is even rawer, funkier and deeper. Especially the bridge is pure electro/disco madness. If you liked T-Connections' original, you certainly gonna like this one!

Just bought this record, and honestly, I never heard the song before and asked the owner of the shop if this was a repress. It was surprising to me this came out in 2004. It sounds like an old electrodisco classic; think of Morgan Geists 'Unclassics'... See full review

A humungously successful deep house track that first appeared on Basenotic back in 1997, featuring a bottom heavy vocal which is dropped over chugging tribal beats and really can be regarded as an all time classic.

NDW is the abbrevation of 'Neue Deutsche Welle' (New German Wave), an appellation which marks the first half of the 80's, a period in which German punk & new wave knew a sudden world-wide succes. This cd gives an excellent overview of this period.
