Review: Here's something to set the pulse racing: a high-profile collaboration between Balearic nu-disco don Aeroplane and veteran French DJ/producer/disco digger Dimitri From Paris. In its' original 'Extended Vocal" mix form, "Can't Get Enough" is a sublime slice of summery disco revivalism laden with walking bass, clipped guitar riffs, ear-catching synths, ear-catching cowbells, crunchy handclaps and a soaring lead vocal from Leela. The pair's accompanying "Dubstrumental" is an authentic, disco-era style flipside dub complete with extended percussive breakdowns and stripped-back instrumental passages, while Yuksek's fine remix takes the track further towards "French Touch" style disco-house territory with an added dose of delay-laden proto-house magic. Big!
Review: Jean Tonique has been serving up slabs of goodness for a couple of years now, with each successive EP offering a little more dancefloor fire than its predecessor. For that reason we weren't surprised to discover that his first offering of 2020, "Scrambled Eggs", is one of his strongest releases to date. For proof, check out the heavy disco-funk bass, sweaty loops, bustling beats and sun-kissed synthesizer lines of righteous opener "Dance", and the bouncy, French Touch-influenced cheeriness of the similarly inclined - but arguably even better - "Menari". Closing cut "Ballare", which reminded us a little of Daft Punk classic "One More Time", is also well worth a listen.
