Review: Kiwi re-edit maestro DiCE_NZ is one of Discoholics Anonymous Recordings' most consistent artists. His continuing 'Highrollers' series, which debuted in the summer of 2021, has provided plenty of killer reworks and this fifth instalment is no different. While there are only two tracks on show, both are genuinely excellent. Up first is 'U Can't Hide', a deliciously shuffling, loose-limbed, hip-hop tempo rework of a gorgeously wide-eyed, loved-up disco gem from the late 1970s. He pushes up the tempo and beefs up the bass on 'Fall In Love', a semi-loopy, effects-laden tweak of a dusty, lesser-known disco-funk delight smothered in twinkling electric piano sounds, eyes-closed female vocal snippets and flanged jazz guitar solos.

Review: The Kiwi king of the re-edit returns with two more reworkings of classic cuts from days of yore. First to get the treatment is Ann Peebles' 'I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down' from 1973, as covered by Paul Young in the 80s - but don't let that put you off, because the original was a bona fide soul anthem and Dice's chopped n' looped take is very playable too. 'Cali Dreamin' meanwhile isn't the Mamas & Papas classic, but instead reworks an unidentified, male-voiced cover thereof. We can tell you it's not the Wes Montgomery, Colorado, Denial or Winston Francis recordings... our disco detectives gave up after that!

Review: Two sexy 'n' sophisticated soul/boogie re-edits here from DiCE_NZ, a loose collective of producers and musicians helmed by Auckland-based Fat Freddy's Drop collaborator DJ Dave Ti. 'Paradise' revisits Barbra Streisand & Robin Gibb's 'Promises' from the 1980 'Guilty' album, while Odyssey's 'Don't Tell Me, Tell Her' (also from 1980, and the AA-side to 'Use It Up And Wear It Out') provides the basis for 'Don't Tell Me'. Drawing on such heavy-hitting sources you already KNOW the quality's going to be there, but vibes-wise, think 'Too Slow To Disco' for the first one and '3am at Horse Meat Disco' for the latter.
