Review: Discovered on the club scene, duo Jay and Dee aka Venice Beach are today's new house sensation. Collaborating with the biggest names both in the studio and live: such as Escort, Moon Boots, RAC and Space Their last EP 'Closer' heralded an artistic turning point for the group - who plan to focus on productions in the pop universe. "Beyond The Clouds" is neon-lit modern synthpop that you could imagine playing in your convertible, with the rooftop down and the summer breeze blowing through your hair. The aforementioned Jay (Airiness) even gets on remix duties, delivering a roaring electro-house rendition for the evening that will surely set the dancefloor alight.

Review: This may not be the first full-length outing for occasional Nang contributors Venice Beach - they've previously released a few albums of re-edits - but it is their first set of original productions. Beginning with the Gauloises sporting Italo-disco chug of "No Complex", Parisian Disco is a perfect showcase for the duo's distinctive brand of synth-heavy nu-disco. Highlights include the rubbery dub disco grooves and dancing melody lines of "Medusa Lounge", the similarly throbbing party business of "Paradise" - all slap bass and big build-ups - and the dreamy nu-disco/deep house fusion of "Unique". The album's two vocal moments are pretty tidy, too, making it a quietly impressive collection of tracks.

Review: There are few better at cutting-up classic disco material than Venice Beach. The Parisian duo rarely strays away from their tried-and-tested formula, which offers a French Touch style take - all thick bottom-end, copious filters and cheeky loops - on the simple disco edit. It's much in evident on this latest two-track assault. "Just Like Music" sees them re-inventing Dayton's rare groove classic "The Sound of Music" as a chunky house looper, while "Love's The Feeling" successfully tinkers with Serious Intention's "Serious", a dubwise proto-house classic that was once a favourite at the paradise garage. That they've managed to retain the sparse, trippy, delay-laden feel of the original while beefing up the bottom end is particularly impressive.

Disco Edits LPEXCLUSIVE
Played by: Superbreak, TOM GLIDE, KS French, Inigo, Dee from Venice Beach, Jay Da Headslick (Venice Beach), Venice Beach
Review: Having seduced all and sundry with their sleek nu-disco re-edits, ever popular duo Jay & Dee (aka Venice Beach) are turning up the heat and delivering their debut LP. All the elements that have helped make their records hip are present and correct: chic bass, clap along er, claps, and excellent taste in samples. Highlights include the wayward bass-a-thon of "No More Kitch", the mid-80s freestyle soul of "High" and in particular, the rubbery sleaze-beat of "Deep Dance". Tres bien!

A Disco Edit CollaborationEXCLUSIVE
Review: Parisian party-starters Venice Beach have always done a neat line in sneaky scalpel jobs; in fact, before moving more into original production last year, it was their bread and butter. Here, they dig out their old editing tools and join forces with Philadelphia's DJ Apt One to lay down a couple of floor-friendly re-rubs. "Socket" is, perhaps unsurprisingly, a beefed up, dubbed-out and house style take on Shalamar's low-slung disco bomb "Right In The Socket". The original bassline, guitars, synth and vocal remain, but are joined by heavy new drums with real swing. "Money (feat DJ Bruce)", meanwhile, works the filters hard, looping up and cutting up a quirky, long-forgotten disco gem.

Waiting For YouEXCLUSIVE
Played by: Juno Recommends Disco, Dynamicron (Los Grandes/Our Nights), Dee from Venice Beach, Albacore, Venice Beach
Review: Parisian party types Venice Beach are gaining a name for themselves as reliable providers of synth-heavy disco-house. Here, they pop up on Mexican label Coquette Maison with two more tracks of goodtime disco-funk. "Waiting For You" leads the charge, offering a choppy, loopy electrofunk jam that sounds like a looser take on the Tiger & Woods cut-up style. While not as immediate or heavy as T&W, it's still pretty attractive. The riotous "Rad", on the other hand, is a formidably sweaty cut-up of Prince-ish synths, rubbery P-funk groovery and cheeky samples. Underestimate its power at your peril.

Review: Parisian DJ/producer duo Edit Beach have previously impressed with two volumes of hot-to-trot, dancefloor-friendly scalpel works. This third instalment in the series features more dope jams tweaked for modern dancefloors. "Slap Disco" opens proceedings with a barrage of slap bass, darting synths and low slung percussion, before "Come On" loops and filters a suitably obscure chunk of beefy mutant disco. "I Like Disco" takes a trip into loopy, compressed disco/house territory, bobbing and weaving like a crackhead trying to evade the police. Closer "Walkman", meanwhile, sounds like a Halloween cover version of French oddballs Kasso.
