Review: After securing some horizontal heat from Redux boss Fernando, Solardisco turn to his Silver City and 2020 Soundsystem cohort Julian Sanza for their latest release. A consummate producer in his own right with drops for Lost My Dog, Rebirth and 2020 Vision, Sanza adopts a more languid approach for his Solardisco debut, with "Fired Up" best described as a dizzying, dosed up disco track that builds effortlessly over the course of seven minutes. Solardisco keep things on a South American tip for the remix, enlisting Sanza's young compatriot Toomy Disco to turn the track into a straighter, more dubby version that skips along merrily, the groove driven by a reverberant arpeggiated shimmer.
Review: A rare outing for Ajello on Glasgow's Solardisco label, teaming up with Heels Of Love and Rampi under the Jadoo pseudonym. While all three tracks feature Ajello's usual rock solid synth basslines, there's a newfound subtlety to the production that really raises the EP beyond the realms of nu-disco mediocrity. Nowhere is this more evident than on lead cut "Kings & Queens", which comes on like a modern take on classic Metro Area. There's also many a deft touch on "Mellow Mellow" and "She Can't Hate You", two sweet synth-funk groovers that give the oft-used Prelude/NY dub disco template a fresh new look.
