Review: It seems like DJ Funk's influence has extended all the way to Romania. That's where Livio & Roby come from, but "Shake That Ass" is pure Chicago ghetto house. The title track's main elements - primitive drums, the singer's pre-orgasm moans, ravey stabs and the exhortations to "shake that ass and make some noise" - all sound like were lifted from DJ Funk's textbook. Andrea Oliva ventures even farther down this path for the remix. The groove is tougher and the percussion more driving, and the order to "shake that ass and bounce those hips girl if you want to party" sounds even more risque.
Review: Jaymo & Andy George's Moda Black present Futurists, a double vinyl collection of forward thinking, underground artists including Sidney Charles, REbEL & Twon, Dudley Strangeways, Fauvrelle, Elias Tzikas, Roberto Palmero, Javi Bora & Le Vinyl and Lrusse & Bleecker. Fuelled by Jay and Andy's unquenchable thirst for new music, Futurists is, in their words, "a chance to shine the spotlight on some really creative new school producers who are making music for all the right reasons - they're doing things their own way and they're doing it with passion and soul". Sidney Charles sets the tone with the bass heavy groove of "Vibe", whilst this release also sees the newly formed duo REbEL & Twon shine with "Itchy Fingaz". Long term Moda affiliate Dudley Strangeways has previously impressed with releases on Klasse, Holic Trax and Albion Records and does so once more with the robust UK House stylings of "Call Girl". Be sure to check "Hats And Nuts" from Lrusse & Bleecker, the recently formed alias of Behling & Simpson which caps off this fine collection!
