FEATURED RELEASES

Kontakt / Warhead / Stompz - Shotcaller EP

exclusive

One of the most promising and exciting new labels to launch in 2020, Onyx return with one of their biggest releases so far as they welcome Kontakt and a few of his mates. 'Shottcaller' kicks off with the crunch we need right now. Hard hitting and no messing, it's just pure filth. Elsewhere Newcastle's Stompz joins the fray for the stuttering, guttural turbine funk-up 'Bruk Out' while Warhead brings the drones and groans on 'Goodbye'. Finally Kontakt signs out 'So Far', a euphoric smash-up here a big afrobeat vocal eases our souls before the bassline burns them down again. Shots fired!

Salsoul Meets West End (Reworks) Salsoul

Here is a selection of the finest reworks and remixes from the two most definitive disco labels. Thriving in the New York club scene of the 70's and 80's, West End is the definitive disco label, alongside the equally legendary New York City label Salsoul Records. They present some of the faces who soundtracked that movement. In this collection you'll find versions by remix extraordinaires like Tom Moulton and Shep Pettibone, NYC legends Danny Tenaglia and Masters At Work, Aussie veterans Late Nite Tuff Guy and Dr. Packer, as well as Dimitri From Paris, Joey Negro, Michael Gray and many more across 30 tracks.

FPXX15 - 15 Years Full Pupp Full Pupp Norway

What we have here is the fourth in a series of EPs marking the 15th anniversary of Prins Thomas's Full Pupp label, though it should be stressed that all the tracks are brand new, not back catalogue favourites. So successful has Thomas been in carving out his own particular "Scandidisco" niche that, after 15 years, you probably have a pretty good idea what to expect here already - suffice to say that fans of the label are unlikely to be disappointed with this latest salvo, and with seven tracks on offer, coming from as many artists, there's no faulting the VFM on offer either!

Rex The Dog

Versions Kompakt Germany

Kompakt recently re-released scene stalwart Rex The Dog's core back catalogue - an artist that has become an integral part of the label's story. They decided to have a few of the British artist's favourite producers rework some of his renowned singles, and the results come as 'Versions'. This collection of three remixes from a varied crew of producers features Irishman Krystal Klear, who accentuates the strobe lights and smoke machine on his euphoric rendition of last year's thriller "Vortex", Madrid-based Italian Bawrut delivers his idiosyncratic style of nu-disco on his remix of "Sicko" and Viennese producer Wolfram Eckert delivers a mesmerising rework of "Circulate".

Rebuke

Obscurity Drumcode

Rebuke's "Rattle" was one of 2019's biggest techno records, so it is no surprise that Drumcode has invited him back for a follow-up release. "Instatik" resounds to an ominous synth line, rolling, steely drums and features ponderous vocals. Despite its dark undercurrent, it is among the label's more clubby tracks. "Livewire" plots a similar path and Rebuke's menacing synths are augmented by a series of snare builds that add to the sense of drama. On "Obscurity", the Irish producer opts for a more pared-back approach, with rolling, tribal drums and euphoric hooks combining to create a distinctive take on big-room techno.

Gok Wan / Craig Knight / Kele Le Roc

Let Me Be Your Fantasy OneFold

Baby D's timeless classic gets its 2020 update from triumvirate Gok Wan, Craig White and Kele Le Roc! Dominated by its rockin piano, epic back up vocals and undeniable club bassline; diva leads, both choral and verse-like, light up this legendary hit alongside hissing percussions, techno hi-hats and new age soul.
