11 Years Next To Disco Music
Various
Review: Fran Deeper's Spa in Disco label is now 11 years old. To celebrate, the popular nu-disco imprint has unveiled this celebratory compilation. Andy Buchan gets things going in fine style via the mid-tempo nu-disco-meets-classic-house flex of 'House Party (Disco Version)', before Chewy Rubs drops some Soundstream-esque loopy disco-house ('Feel Good Factor') and Frank Virgilo takes a similar tack on 'Never Too Late'. From then on, it's a joyous sprint to the finish, with hands-aloft outings courtesy of Funk Hunk and others being joined by killer cuts courtesy of Juan Laya & Jorge Montiel (the rubbery bass guitar-propelled 'Funk Supreme'), Hiva & Funky Junkie (the hard-wired disco-funk of 'Hola') and Shakavoy (the party-starting 'Get Funky').

Hot Digits: Year Nine
Various
Review: Arriving just in time for the summer season, Hot Digits delivers a compilation that is tailor made to soundtrack lazy, hazy days. Even Funkier's "Feel So Good Inside" is an irresistible, funk-fuelled disco groove, while Ben Jamin's "Handle" inhabits a similar space. Soaked in wailing guitar and soulful vocals, it's a wonderfully infectious track. Both Andy Buchan and P-Sol raise the tempo with string-filled disco workouts, while Fray Bentos' "Danced To Death" offers a more electronic take on this sound. The compilation does veer towards house on occasion - most impressively with the subtle drum builds and chord progressions on Down Under Disco's "On My Mind". In the main though, Year Nine impresses most when it draws on disco and funk influences, such as the raucous party jam that is label owner Fingerman's collaboration with Chewy Rubs, "Block Party Bad Boy".

Boogie Grooves
Review: With an EP title like 'Boogie Grooves' there are no prizes for guessing what style/era from the dancefloor history books is being paid homage to here. Kelton Prima's opener 'The Lights' is a masterclass in shimmering early 80s synths and chorus'd, slightly chipmunky fem vox, Tony Johns' 'Watching You' revisits the 1980 jam of the same name by Ohio funkateers Slave, 'Slow-N-Funky' drops down into decadent, string-drenched 70s disco mode as it loops up the backing vox from a 1975 cut by Furman & Johnson, but the pick of a fine crop is Pete Le Freq's more house-ified 'Stars Out', a rework of Stargard's 'Wear It Out' from 1979.

Balearic Headspace, Vol 6
Various
Review: 'Balearic' was never meant to be a genre: originally, it was about playing all different kinds of music regardless of genre. The latest 'Cafe Del Mar' comp recently reminded us all of that and now, just to underline the point, here comes Vol 6 in Midnight Riot's 'Balearic Headspace' series, which packs in everything from Hi-Fi Sean's deep acid bubbler 'Sunshine Dub' to Amma's fine, fragile and near-bruk Sade cover, via ultra-mellow piano house from Hypnotic Lovers, spaced-out midtempo boogie from Shalvoy, 80s Europop stylings courtesy of Frank Karma and more besides... including, yes, a very 'Balearic', female-sung Steve Miller Band cover from Dominic Dawson.

2nd Birthday Compilation
Various
Review: UK label Hot Gorilla reach the terrible twos and celebrate with a 10-track compilation that's packed with fine contemporary disco, funk, soul and boogie vibes. If you're looking for highlights, then Havana Hustlers' opener rocks a b-line that somehow manages to recall both 'Lovely Day' and 'Boogie Nights', Fray Bentos makes great use of a classic Afrika Bambaataa sample on 'Stormy Nights', while Andy Buchan's 'The House That Funk Built' plunders Aretha to equally powerful effect and Solazz's 'Blaze The Party' is a boogie-tastic delight. But there are six more quality jams where those came from, from Even Funkier's Patrice Rushen-biting 'Those Were The Times' to the jazz-funk inflections of Shalvoy's 'Beautiful2Strangers'.

The 100th - Part 2
Various
Review: With 25 tracks to choose from, this second volume of Mango Sounds' anniversary collection certainly offers plenty of dancefloor bang for your hard-earned buck. No room here to go into every track, obviously, but overall the emphasis is on fairly faithful homages to the original US disco sounds of the late 70s/early 80s, with the odd excursion into more boogie- or funk-inspired territory. With cuts from the likes of Igor Gonya, Ken@Work, Hotmood and C. Da Afro plus a host of more up-and-coming names, this is one more trad-minded disco lovers (as opposed to Italo-fiendin' hipsters) will want to check for sure.

Love Ghost
Love Ghost - (5:33) 114 BPM
Review: Peter Shalvoy is no newcomer to the scene: a DJ around NYC for over 20 years, he's perhaps best known for his long-running residency at the infamous Nell's. These days, though, he's relocated to Las Vegas and is concentrating his efforts on his productions. Like this one, for instance: a gloriously lounge-y and, yes, slightly cheesy disco number that harks back to the style's earliest days in the mid-70s with its male and female soul vocals. There's no great reinvention of the wheel going on, but those female 'aaah-aaaahs' in the chorus are worth the price of admission on their own!

Hot Digits: Year Seven
Various
Review: Unlike many of its rivals, Fingerman's Hot Digits label doesn't fill its' obligatory annual compilation with back catalogue cuts. Instead, we're offered a vast number of previously unheard re-edits, remixes and original productions. It's a successful blueprint and one religiously adhered to on Hot Digits: Year Seven, the popular imprint's latest must-check collection. There's not enough room to single out every sonic highlight, but our current favourites include the breezy boogie squelch of Ross Fitz's 'I Miss Your Love ('85 Mix)', the driving deep house haziness of Fingerman and Henri Le Blanc's 'Leave Your Cares Tonight', the neo-trance cheeriness of Picklejam's 'Endorphin Situation' and the stab-happy, peak-time house retro-futurism of 'The Feeling' by Downunder Disco.

Any Way You Want
Review: The occasional Las Vegas-based duo of Peter Shalvoy and Milo Berger join forces once more for this two-tracker on Midnight Riot. In its original form, 'Any Way You Want' is a laidback funk groove comprised of shuffling drums, a fast-fingered walking bassline and gloriously cheesy keys, all topped with a spoken/sung "do it any way you want to, do it any way you wanna" male vocal, the overall vibe recalling 70s barrio funk. Hi-Fi Sean then supplies a predictably well-crafted remix that ups the pace to a housier tempo while adding spy thriller horns and a much fatter, rumbling b-line.

Disco Made Me Do It Vol 2
Various
Review: Midnight Riot's compilations are not only uniformly action-packed, but also offer great value for money. The latest edition in the imprint's ongoing "Disco Made Me Do It" series offers up no less than 25 tried-and-tested cuts to pep up your DJ sets. In keeping with the label's party-starting ethos, there's a good mix of disco-fired house cuts (see Michael Gray's "24/7 People"), revivalist disco-boogie (Qwestlife's remix of Nick Reach Up's "Dreaming"), filter-sporting boogie-house (Ladies On Mars), top-notch disco re-edits (Twism's "What I Know"), Tiger & Woods style loop jams (Motte's "Darkroom Boogie") and party-staring 21st century disco-funk ("Chance" by Rees).

4 For The Floor - EP
Review: Neveada-based producer Shalvoy is no stranger to Midnight Riot, having previously delivered two fine re-edit EPs for Yam Who's label alongside pal Hifi Sean. This time round he's on a solo mission, kicking off a strong EP of peak-time workouts via the undulating strings, cheery chorus vocals, Nile Rodgers style guitars, crunchy Clavinet lines and swinging disco drums of "Get Down (Get Down)". There's a killer curveball in the shape of the sparkling nu-disco/fuzzy funk-rock fusion of "Walkin", while "Freak Da Funk" peppers a smooth and spacey nu-disco groove with hoarse funk vocal samples and mind-altering P-funk bass. Shalvoy's love of heavy synth bass also comes to the fore on rolling electrofunk closer "Ubu & Mebeme".

Slipped Discs Vol 2
Review: Fresh from scoring a summer club hit with his Crystal Waters-sporting gospel-house smasher "Testify" (re-released in July by Defected with a swathe of fresh reworks), Hifi Sean once again joins forces with Las Vegas-based chum Shalvoy for a second serving of Slipped Discs on Midnight Riot. As with the material showcased on volume one, these are not re-edits, but rather club tracks that cleverly combine elements from familiar disco and boogie jams with their own beats and musical flourishes. There's much to enjoy throughout, from the hard-wired, proto-house jack of Andre Espeut collaboration" Get Down" and thrusting Italo-disco sleaziness of "Jumpy" and "Charlie", to the Konk-in-space heaviness of hypnotic late night roller "Kinky".

Slipped Discs Vol 1
Played by: JOUTRO MUNDO
Review: Having recently delivered a killer 12" with P-funk legend Bootsy Collins, Hifi Sean joins forces with Las Vegas-based New Yorker Peter Shalvoy on Midnight Riot. The experienced twosome delivers a quartet of floor-friendly cuts that gleefully blur the boundaries between disco re-edits, loopy disco-house, and the kind of sample-heavy, cut-up dancefloor fare championed by Tiger & Woods. Our pick of the bunch is probably the slo-mo disco-funk sleaze of "Femme", with the similarly dubby, low-slung and trippy "Kids" (a significantly scrambled rework of a familiar classic) not far behind. Those seeking more up-tempo, peak-time thrills should check the Italo disco-tinged throb of "Soviet", or the hypnotic dancefloor pressure of "Darling".
