Balearic GirlEXCLUSIVE
Played by: Gazeebo, Irregular Disco Workers, Jayl Funk, In Flagranti, Richard Rossa, Vermelho, Dee from Venice Beach
Review: After brushing the dust off their fingers accrued from compiling that excellent Magik Sunrise compilation for Leng, Psychemagik return to their Discotheque Wreckers series for the final installment. Lead track "Balearic Girl" allegedly originates from a super rare Swedish hairspray advert, with the summery vocal hook and heavy bassline augmented by Psychemagik's subtle mastery of dancefloor tweaks. On the flip, "Spiced Oddity" finds the pair in cosmic chug territory and is a sublime way to round out the series, though we hear whispers that a Disco Wreckers CD compiling the series along with two bonus cuts will arrive later this summer.

Systematic LoverEXCLUSIVE
Played by: Irregular Disco Workers, Superbreak, Juno Recommends Disco, Freddy Love, Ramsey Hercules, Tulioxi
Review: Ever-rising groove merchants Psychemagik continues to summon up the spirits of afro-beat, disco, funk and psychedelia with their impassioned output, and yet again this twelve makes for compelling listening. "Systematic Lover" is a breezy disco affair draped in tripped-out guitar washes and propelled by a stark deep house chord that sounds epic in amidst the archaic surroundings. "Jungle Juice" is slower and raunchier, getting into a Fela Kuti flavour and keeping things detailed and energised throughout; working in the vocals with a dash of harmonica, infinitesimal hits of bongos and some sassy guitar work and taking you right back to the raw old 70s in the process.

What A Funky NightEXCLUSIVE
Played by: George Kelly, Spec., Valique, Andrew Allsgood (Free Association), Roberto Rodriguez (Manolo), Juno Recommends Disco, James Curd, Juno Classics, Alessandro Otiz, DIONIGI, CC:DISCO!, Dirty McKenzie, Dynamicron (Los Grandes/Our Nights), Future Feelings, Philosophy Of Sound, Kono Vidovic, Nu Disco Fever, Robbie hardkiss, Ruckus Roboticus
Review: These guys have been flying the flag for quality amongst the disco re-edit community for a while now. This two-tracker is being hailed as one of their best yet, with the title track being a lean, super-perky chopped up floor filler with infectious female vocals and a just-go-with-it Euro-rap. The second cut is from the other side of the tracks: it's the type of slow n sleazy new wave-disco tune you can imagine in a dark early 80s New York fleapit, where the cast of Liquid Sky hang and dance in a beautifully nonchalant manner.

Healin' Feelin Edits Vol 3EXCLUSIVE
Review: Those who believe the current re-edit scene is lacking in quality would be advised to check Psychemagik's excellent Healin' Feelin Edits series. Instead of offering house-friendly versions of familiar favourites, the fast-rising production outfit look far and wide for inspiration, cutting up baggy rock faves, forgotten jams and delightfully Balearic fodder. This third volume features two more quality reinterpretations. First up is "Way Milky", a clav-happy chunk of psychedelic disco-funk that bubbles seductively from start to finish. The baggier "Make It Mellow", meanwhile, is more Balearic than squinting at the morning sunshine after an extended session at Space... and twice as life affirming.

Dance Hall DaysEXCLUSIVE
Played by: George Kelly, Mo-Matic, Justin Miller, FINGERMAN, Stan Tropic, Juno Recommends Disco, Lou Teti, Get Down Edits, Dynamicron (Los Grandes/Our Nights), B.G. Baarregaard, Future Feelings
Review: If you've been following the rise of Cosmic Forest dwellers Psychemagik for more than a minute, you'll be aware of their extremely chunky revision of Wang Chung's 1984 jam "Dancehall Days" which has been teasing new arrivals at their Soundcloud page for more than a year now. It finally gets a digital release here, and an official one to boot as Wang Chung vocalist Jack Hues was so impressed with their illicit take he sent them the stems for the official remix you see here. It's very much in line with their original edit but comes replete with that extra beef. Another archival killer from the duo in "Beauty And The Bass" adorns this release too.

Healin' Feelin 2EXCLUSIVE
Played by: B-Jam, George Kelly, 4T4, Julian Sanza, Homegroove Project, Timewarp, Billy Bogus, RedSoul, FINGERMAN, Stan Tropic, Irregular Disco Workers, Superbreak, Flash Atkins, Chris Coco, Juno Recommends Disco, Shota Tanaka (Beaten Space Probe), D-Funk, Get Down Edits, Dynamicron (Los Grandes/Our Nights), Psychemagik
Review: With everyone from Metronomy to Azari & III tapping up Psychemagik for remixes this year, the duo will surely be hot property in 2012, however this release, the second in their series of edit EPs, sees them take the knife to another two lost gems. The name of the amusingly titled "Ass Nation" comes from the presumably misheard lead vocal, which is combined with some low-slung bass guitar, trumpet solo action and heavily delayed guitar licks. "Upskirt" meanwhile is a disco-blues number, whose slow pace is given a rocket fuelled push with some searing, high-octane guitar work, topped off with some cosmically charged sound effects.

Heelin' Feelin'EXCLUSIVE
Review: 2011 has been a terrific year for the Psychemagik crew, who have provided us with all manner of disco, Balearic and psyechedelic treats - not to mention some slick slo-mo soul in the shape of "Feelin Love". Here they drop a pair of terrific re-edits of unlikely disco jams. First up is "Boogie Drome", a vocoder-heavy country-disco-rock banger than really defies definition. It's gloriously odd, but really rather magic. Flip for "Diamond Star", a thrillingly low-slung chunk of midtempo cosmic rock that recalls such classic 70s/80s disco/rock crossover outfits as the Greg Kihn Band. Proper dancefloor gold for crate-diggin' DJs.
