Jamie xx feat Honey Dijon
Review: Jamie xx and Honey Dijon team up for a floor-filling heater on "Baddy On The Floor," coming hot on the heels of a string of Jamie xx releases over the past few years, including "idontknow," "Let's Do It Again," and most recently, "It's So Good" in January. The track is a disco house fusion, pulsing with a classic energy. Jamie xx expertly weaves a sample of Keni Burke's "Let Somebody Love You" into the production, creating a sense of nostalgic familiarity. Honey Dijon adds their signature touch, infusing the polished sound with a hint of underground club magic. 2024 summer banger!

Review: Brazil's Hugo Doche returns to East London-based label The Disco Express with three fresh slices of contemporary disco/disco-house. 'Hit The Tracks' features a very pop-oriented vocal from Sansy but also sports some excellent sax work, the Kria McKenzie-sporting 'This Feeling' has something of the lounge-y vibe of late 70s Brazilian disco but also comes accompanied by a significantly more house-ified remix from Birdee that for this reviewer is the standout track on the EP, while finally 'Dance' features Carla Sceno on mic duties and rocks crisp 4/4s and a fat funk bassline.

Review: This Falling EP, a collaboration between Adana Twins and Upercent on TAU, epitomises the seamless synergy between these seasoned artists, delivering a strong statement within the melodic techno domain. Featuring tracks "Falling" and "Move," the EP blends emotive vocals, pulsating basslines, and a refined mix of electronic elements that err toward the TAU sound. Adana Twins' dynamic range and Upercent's avant-garde soundscapes converge here at large, showcasing a deep emotional resonance and meticulous attention to sonic detail in the project. "Falling," the titular track, sets the tone with its undulating bassline and poignant male vocals, while "Move" offers a more urgent tempo and powerful kick drums, crafting a dance floor-ready anthem of romantic yearning.

Review: Fabrizio Mammarella and Rodion deliver a momentous release with Musica E Computer - recorded in the legendary Marche Synth Museum in Italy. The opening track "Iris" sets an exceptional tone, exploring eerie, metallic tropical landscapes, while others like "A Corrente Alternata" and "Un Segnale Di Speranza" showcase Mammerella and Rodion's unmatched partnership, crafting enigmatic, timeless earworms with driving basslines and arcane vocoders. Throughout the album, the duo seamlessly blends synthetic and organic sounds, offering a geographic coda to the Italian region's rich musical history. Musica E Computer culminates in "Una Nuova Era", a transcendent homage to the recording synth drenched studio the album was recorded in which makes for some Italorama to the fullest!

Review: Six months on from his Scruniversal label debut, which we rightly waxed lyrical about, sometime Super Spicy and Elephant Chords contributor Nico Cortazzo drops a speedy sequel. Cortazzo hits the ground running with 'My Mom Was Cool', a sample-rich fusion of colourful nu-disco and string-laden disco-house flavours piled high with jazzy guitar licks, kaleidoscopic synth sounds and fuzz-fuelled electronic bass. He opts for a dreamier and smoother sound on the wonderfully saucer-eyed 'Let It Shine', a genuinely brilliant slab of tactile and enveloping deep house bliss. The man's got serious skills!

Review: Rare Wiri bring us three new rubs of the tracks that made up German nu-disco regular Andy Bach's 'If You Leave' EP, released in November last year. Romanto's take on 'Come On Now' strips away the deep house elements and transforms it into a hazy summer nu-disco jam, Stephane Deschezeaux's Organic Remix of 'Dimesions' injects a little more funk and soul into what was quite a trippy, Balearic-leaning original, before 'If You Leave' - a fairly 'accessible' and pop-oriented nu-disco cut in its original form - gets handed over to label boss Rayko, whose rework gives it a deeper, more underground kinda feel.

Review: Leeds-based Jay Dixon AKA Jay-Son specialises in dark, moody electronic disco and has chalked up releases on such labels as Rare Wiri, When Disco Goes Wrong, Paisley Dark and Nein Records, among others. Here he returns to the former with a two-track release: 'Into The Infinity Of Light' is a throbbing, pulsating workout that blends influences from Italo disco, Belgian new beat, coldwave and acid house, topping the lot with rave-y "come on!" shouts, while the accompanying 'Such A Vibration' is a hazier affair that operates at a much slower tempo and makes good use of some classic Loleatta vocal snips.

Review: "I'm Your Baby Tonight" isn't just a rehash of the past; it's a full-on nu-disco makeover. Mint Disco takes the well-loved melody and injects it with a shot of modern energy, creating a fresh dancefloor banger. The result is a captivating mix of the familiar and the new, a delightful balance of warm nostalgia and innovative spirit. This track goes beyond being a song; it's a sonic journey that warps time. Mint Disco's production magic breathes new life into the iconic tune, transporting listeners to a space where past and present blend seamlessly. The experience feels completely new yet undeniably connected to the original's charm.

Review: A typically varied three-tracker here from Flevans, whose output has spanned breaks, nu disco, soul and more. The EP opens with 'Dreamer', which brings the authentically 70s-sounding disco vibes. Next up is 'Carry Them', a sweeping, dramatic but hard-to-pigeonhole concoction made up mostly of breakbeats and delicate pianos that comes topped with a soulful male vocal. And then finally there's 'Where I Hide', which again has a piano front and centre but this time in much more sprightly fashion, accompanied by a female vocal and underpinned by a solid but unassuming 4/4 kick. 'Dreamer' takes the gold for yours truly.

Review: For the latest missive on his long-running Internasjonal imprint, Norse disco don Prins Thomas has turned to first-time collaborators SONNS (AKA South Korea-based Frenchman Timothee Victorri) and Mexcian maverick Inigo Vontier, a producer renowned for the psychedelic nature of his dancefloor workouts. The headline attraction is arguably title tracl 'Mascara De Tigre', a pleasingly percussive, offbeat and mind-mangling affair that wraps hazy piano motifs, trippy electronics and tactile vocal samples around an unusual but addictive beat. Prins Thomas remixes, giving the track a sleazy Italo disco-meets-weirdo house flex, before the pair offer up two more tracks: the acid-flecked nu-disco shuffle of 'Dreamers' and the post punk-goes-dark disco flex of 'Drummers Dance'.

Review: Not be confused with Nang disco veterans Kim & Buran, Buran are the Manchester duo of Ian Scott and Josef Wretham, and on this four-track EP for Insult To Injury they showcase a sound that sits somewhere between acid house, dark disco and techno, with analogue synths firmly at the heart of all they do. The first track, 'Alnitak', is a pure vintage-style acid workout, before things get a little more esoteric as 'Alnilam' throws world music influences into the pot. 'Mintaka' then pushes us firmly into techno territory, with Void Complet rounding out the EP by giving 'Alnitak' a spaced-out nu-disco makeover.

Choir EPEXCLUSIVE
Review: Leeds' own disco don Andy Buchan returns to Hot Gorilla with an EP consisting of what are, essentially, three nu disco-fied cover versions - specifically, his takes on 'Don't You (Forget About Me)' by Simple Minds, 'Get Lucky' by Daft Punk and 'Burning Down The House' by Talking Heads. But there's a twist - as the EP title suggests, each of those covers has been augmented by the employment of a full choir on vocal duties. It's an approach that may prove a bit 'Marmite' (for this writer, the treatment works best on 'Get Lucky') but it certainly makes a change from endless re-edits...

Review: Argentinian producer and re-editor Alexny returns to Furious Mandrill with the third installment in a series that draws heavily on world music influences, though whether the three tracks here are re-edits or original productions is a little unclear. Either way, 'Que Pasa' is, unsurprisingly, a Latin-flavoured affair with dense layers of percussion and a one-line vocal, 'Conmbe' is a somewhat funkier affair with a full male vocal in an unknown language and some energetic guitar work that hints at highlife, while finally 'Donme' is a deep, shufflin' groove with choral vox (again in an unidentified tongue) and probably the best bet for non-specialist floors.

Review: A couple of giants of the Aussie disco/disco-house scene collide as Glitterbox fave Dr Packer and Elektrik Disco join forces on an irresistible slice of Saturday peaktime disco-house action. Screamalong diva vocal? Check. Pyow-pyow-pyow stabs? Check. Handclaps? Check. Hands-in-the-air pianos? Check. Fat, squelchy funk bassline? Check! That's the Extended Mix, anyway... you also get the Elektrik Disko Extended Mix, which has a similar overall MO but rocks a different, walking bassline and is a bit less sonically busy, making this latter rub perhaps the pick for more underground/less commercial floors. File under 'infectious'.

Jimmy Brixton - "Bowie On Mars" (feat Frida Bollani Magoni - Ladies On Mars Club dub remix) - (5:02) 122 BPM
Review: Since emerging in the late 2000s, Jonathan Braverman AKA Ladies On Mars has not only delivered tons of tasty original EPs, but also countless quality remixes. Here he takes a second trawl through his 'remixography', offering up seven more catalogue highlights. There's a swathe of re-rubs of tracks by Dennis Jones, including a suitably joyous nu-disco 'extended remix' of his 'Celebration' cover, an Italo-disco-meets-disco-funk 'Club Dub' of 'I Was Made For Dancing', and a deliciously detailed and sun-splashed extended rework of 'Fireworks'. Elsewhere, the Argentina-based producer delivers a wonderfully low-slung, Bobby Orlando-influenced nu-disco tweak of Jimmy Brixton's 'Bowie On Mars', and joins the dots between Italo-disco and 'French Touch' disco-house on an energetic revision of 'Get Up Girl' by Vilanis.

Review: Given that Divine Who is a gospel-disco rework project helmed by Greg Belson (one of the world's most renowned gospel diggers) and Midnight Riot chief Yam Who, you'd expect this second volume in their ongoing 'Altared Disco' series to be packed to the rafters with killer revisions of dusty and obscure gems. It is, of course, with the pair hitting the mark straight away with 'Dance' - a thickset disco-house affair in which soaring gospel lead and backing vocals rise above chunky beats, infectious piano riffs and swirling sonics. 'Never Turn Back (Jaegerossa Remix)' is another peak-time ready house-style revision of a piano-powered, hands-aloft gospel-disco treat, while 'Feel' puts a new spin on a slap-bass sporting chunk of early '80s gospel-electrofunk.

Review: Montenegro-based rework maestro Mitiko (real name Sasha Mitich) has been a busy boy this year, with this EP-turned-mini album marking his sixth missive of 2024 to date. There's plenty to get the blood pumping and the feet moving across the seven tracks on show, from the lightly housed up vocal disco rush of 'Along With You' and the filter-sporting Afro-disco joy of 'Fungi Mama', to the slow-motion disco-funk headiness of 'Ghost' and the build-and-release excellence of the stomping, string-laden peak-time disco of 'Peak At You'. Those seeking mid-tempo thrills are catered for via 'Get Up and Boogie', while 'Latin Hustle' is a memorable revision of a Spanish language dancefloor gem.

Oslo Love AffairEXCLUSIVE
Review: Boblebad - that'll be Norwegian for 'hot tub' or 'jacuzzi', then - goes by the name of Ulf Moen Denneche in real life and hails, unsurprisingly, from Oslo. Here he comes to Citizens Of Vice with three tracks of (mostly) heavily electronic nu disco, with the title track a jaunty, lolloping affair sporting some Daft Punk-esque guitar flourishes, 'Just Think About That Feeling' a slightly deeper, spacier number built for late-hours play, and 'At The Beach' the quirkiest and least synth-tastic cut of the three with its sampled seaside sounds, insistent hand percussion, Spanish guitars and kiddy vox.

Slo MoEXCLUSIVE
Review: A four-tracker here from Chewy Rubs, coming on his own Bandolier label and operating, as the title suggests, at a slightly lower tempo than is his wont. The EP opens with 'Acid Chugger', whose very name kindly saves yours truly having to think of what to say about it! 'Fro Mo' is another midpaced affair topped with dialogue samples, 'Jazz Cat' opens with a "this is a how it should be done" vocal sample (the first of many) and has a party-hearty, Jalapeno-esque feel, before finally we come to 'Something For Your Soul', another chugging, throbbing affair with treated, spoken vocal snips and lashings of acid bass.
