Review: Disko Cowboy is the nom de guerre of Texas-dwelling Dave Wrangler, who since 2007 has headed up Vinyl Ranch, an events and clothing brand centred on his "unexpected mash-up of classic country, disco and EDM". Here, he teams up with country vocalist Kaitlin Butts and Brooklyn-based indie-dance outfit French Horn Rebellion (who've toured with the likes of Hot Chip, MGMT and Two Door Cinema Club) to deliver a remake of Shania Twain's 1998 global smash that's served up in two mixes, the Original and a Blake Ward Edit. You won't be hearing this at Fabric or Berghain but commercial floors will doubtless lap it up.
Review: Just like his country's cyclists on the 'grand tours' of Europe, Felipe Gordon is climbing rapidly - though he has the summit of deep house in his sights, rather than a legendary French, Italian or Spanish mountain. His music is always assured, on-point and playable, and this three-tracker is no exception. Title track 'The Warehouse Beast' is, by his standards, pleasingly bold, with echoing spoken word snippets, classic-sounding stabs and fizzing electric piano riffs rising above a chunky bassline and loose-limbed deep house drums. Glenn Underground brilliantly re-imagines the track as an ever deeper, more musically detailed treat underpinned by a fantastic acid bassline, while bonus cut 'It's Over (Drive My Car)' is - somewhat surprisingly - a hazy, loved-up deep house take on The Beatles (really).
