Sister Sledge – Smile (Fake Hides edit)

Absolute classic from Sister Sledge gets a energetic workout from Fake Hides. It’s got that sunshine in the park buzz nailed to a tee. As far as edits go it’s not the most creative but on a sunny Friday, sometimes a guilty jam is just the ticket. – Magnier Here’s a free download for you:…

Mark Blair – 84 King Street

Todays treat is a string laden burner from Mark Blair which belongs front left of the dancefloor, saucer eyed and sweaty with its top off. It’s not rewriting the rulebook from a production point of view but I don’t think thats what this one’s about. Love the tracks title, which is the old street address…

France Gall – Ella Elle L’a (Folamour Edit)

A few weeks ago we featured a S3A edit of a France Gall track, well turns out there’s more to the story…….some words from Folamour: “A few days ago, something special happened at the end of a show in France where I was playing b2b with mamene S3A. The sound engineer waited for the place…

World Premiere – Share The Night (David J Bull ReTwEAK)

Another free joint from the Teak crew. This time David J Bull tackles one of the best 80’s funk jams ‘Share The Night’. This track has been remixed to near perfection already with the ‘Breakdown Mix’ which was released in 1983 but I guess enough time has passed for someone to have another go. This…

Arşivplak – Turkish Disco Folk (Quebra Coco Edit)

Sunny grooves today from Quebra Coco, which is a trio of producers (one of whom is Beto) as they tackle ‘Turkish Disco Folk Volga Nehri’ an extremely popular piece of wax and a beautifully floaty original (Listen to the original here). There’s nothing floaty about this version tho, it’s been at the ‘roids and is…

J.J Cale – Right Down Here (Mr Leighs Deep In The Floyd Rewerk)

We’ve featured Mr Leigh on here in the past, before we had to delete hundreds of posts…..sorry about that. Anyway, he’s got some beauties and no better way to ease yourself into the week than with this trippy extended take on a J.J Cale original. Fusing some mission control samples and drawing out the arrangement…

The Love Unlimited Orchestra – Welcome Aboard (Loshmi edit)

Loshmi adds a little bit more horsepower to this leisure-cruiser of an original, which is by a 40 piece orchestra captained by Barry White. It just sort of sails along nicely, granted to removes some of the open water the original version has, but add’s some wonderful details and keeps it on course. Ok, I’ve…

France Gall – J’ai Besoin d’Amour (S3A Edit)

S3A understands club music, I first came across him through my friend Nachtbraker’s excellent ‘Quartet Series’ and his productions have been in my bag ever since. This edit of a french original toughens it up and get’s it dolled up for the peak times on the floor. It has a bit of a french house…

Julio Iglesias – La Carretera (The Rabbit King Edit)

This one does take a long time to warm up but once it’s there it’s lovely, sort of a gentle & melty buzz. Poor old Julio didn’t get invited to his own after-party as he’s been removed entirely from this edit, but then again, I doubt it’s his thing. – Magnier Here’s a free download…

Double Exposure – Everyman (The Owl – ‘Nugget’ Rework)

The Owl has been doing edits for a lot longer than most and he’s not showing any signs of slowing down. This revision of a Salsoul classic is an absolute tender beauty. Loving the vocal work in this one, extending the hook is always a good call especially in a vocal so distinct. I’m also…
