A joyous and catchy edit today from Frankie More. This ones part of the ‘That’s Not An Edit’ compilation, a free compilation of sample heavy edits. Frankie pulls a beautiful vocal hook from the original and runs with it pushing it into new territory. It’s a familiar treatment that a lot of edits display so…
Read MorePlains – Brooklyn
909 heavy house music today from Australian producer Plains. He’s a relative newcomer having only just popped up online but there’s some things to like about this breezy track, although I think it could have done without the siren. Here’s a free download for you:
Read MoreWallace Collection – Daydream (M.RUX EDIT)
I just keep coming back to this, along with a lot of M.Rux’s edits. His version of the much emulated Wallace Collection original delicately extracts all the dated bits and slings them in the bin, keeping only the best of the timeless hooky vocals and leaving one of the best bass lines in the business…
Read MoreAmadou & Mariam – Je Pense à Toi (VOILAAA Remix)
On a day when all the edits out there are starting to sound the same and I’m lost in a sea of familiarity there’s this, a beautifully sunny edit from VOILAAA. They add a tasteful groove to the original giving it some velocity and there’s plenty of little flourishes and ideas to breath new life…
Read MoreRosetta Hightower – Rocking Chair (Dj XS Edit)
Straight up blistering funk for you today as Rosetta Hightower (Daughter of the Police Academy giant…..I swear) gets a re-rub by Dj XS. This is one of those tracks that’s embedded with a warm fuzzy nostalgia. It sounds like a time and place in music history, when R&B was actually R&B and funk ruled the…
Read MoreXX Edits – How Does it Feel?
Ok ok I know, it’s another ‘New Order – Blue Monday’ edit, but don’t be scared this ones pretty good. Coupled with the fact that it is, at time of writing, a Monday in the middle of winter this edit from Luxxury under his XX Edits moniker just feels apt. There are interesting details everywhere…
Read MoreM.Rux – Edits & Cuts – Trio of freebies
An edit treasure haul of three beauties for you today as M.Rux marks the spot. Ok, might have overworked that analogy slightly. Anyway, I first heard of this guy when I came across his vinyl release of edits (get yours here) and I have to say I was blown away by the quality or production…
Read MoreNoar Shulaim – Tzairi Lach Safam (Gal Kadan Edit)
Slightly left of centre disco today as Gal Kadan crafts an edit from a Noar Shulaim track from the 90’s. Glitchy guitar loops and incomprehensible vocals give way to a invigorating chorus (the best bit). It’s not one of those ones that you will always find a use for but hey, variety is the name…
Read MoreVoilaaa – On Te L’avait Dit (Dimitri From Paris Super Disco Instrumental)
A rare treat from Dimitri From Paris today as he celebrates a release on Favourite Recordings by giving away an instrumental version (which is my favourite version anyway). Wandering hooky basslines and a barrage of percussion are on the menu and if you need more cowbell after this you need your head checked. – Magnier…
Read MoreDj Deece – Ritual (Disco Mixx)
Looping to infinity today with an exclusive download from Dublin buzz merchant and Hidden Agenda resident, Dj Deece. Ritual is a ‘straight in no kissing’ burner. The ominous and hypnotic tones of the vocals lock you into the groove so you’ll have no idea how long you have been listening to it for. You’ll suddenly…
