Lorelle Meets the Obsolete - Remezcla - 12-INCH SINGLE [12 inch Vinyl Single]

David Lovato's first outing as Lova, the superb 'Gypsophilia' EP, was one of NuNorthern Soul's most lauded and cherished releases of 2021 - a gorgeous collection of emotive, sun-soaked sounds from the mind of a producer who got his chance on the imprint after handing a USB of tracks to Phil Cooper at Hostal La Torre in the summer of 2020.Now, the EP returns for 2022 in expanded form, with a trio of fresh, mood-enhancing remixes joining the three original tracks featured on last year's . It's those - 'Cecilia', Lovato's glistening, emotionally resonant musical tribute to his baby daughter, mid-tempo nu-disco gem 'Echoes of Memories' and the stunning, sunset-inspired 'Esperanza' - that form the first half of the EP, with a trio of reworks following in hot pursuit.Long-time friends of the tag Leo Mas and Fabrice, an Italian duo famed for their brilliant Balearic reworks whose individual and collective histories stretch right back to the late 1980s (Mas, for example, was one of the resident DJs at legendary White Isle venue Amnesia at the back end of that decade). Given this shared Balearic history, it's fitting that they step up first and give their spin on 'Cecilia'. Making the most of Lovato's stunning, reverb-drenched guitar licks, dreamy chords and atmospheric pads, the pair delivers a shuffling, club-ready interpretation underpinned by a locked-in dub disco groove. It's a fine take on a track brimming with positivity and joy. Hear & Now, an Italian duo best known for delivering a trio of brilliant albums on Claremont 56, give their interpretation of 'Echoes of Memories'. Beginning with a mixture of quietly colorful chords, enveloping sonic textures and hazy guitar motifs, the mix gently builds as it progresses, with the pair introducing a pitched-down house groove, chiming electronic melodies and alluring elements from Lovato's original version. Like much of Hear &

Risk/Reward is the brainchild of New York based, London-born underground music scene veteran and Archivio Records owner Daniel Dutts. The tag fuses leading contemporary artists with iconic 90s producers to create a playful yet sophisticated sound, firmly focused on creating dance floor magic!The first EP showcases rising Philadelphia talents Post Play (Sweater & John Raffaele), whose previous excursion on Small Moves became a much sought after cult classic. 'Danger' is what's commonly known by DJs as a 'sure thing', guaranteed to get the most stubborn of crowds moving. A cheeky bass groove, quirky stabs, hip hop breaks and scratched vocals, create a vibe best described as 'if DJ Premier made a track for Wiggle in the late 90s'. 'Go' blends vintage Nu Groove style NYC house with progressive and techy elements to create a unique dancefloor monster. Warping speed garage style sub bass combines with punchy stabs, rich pads, trippy synth leads and skippy, swinging drums, creating an atmospheric but driving track, that keeps you guessing til the very end. Bushwacka! #channels his Plank-era heyday to create a remix of 'Danger' that delivers multiple 'what the f#%k was that?' moments, as he takes you on a breakbeat voyage with crisp percussion, devastating low end, hypnotic ragga vocals and a didgeridoo no less! A reminder of the man's genius and genre-defining sound. 'What I Meant To Tell You' merges warm, J Dilla style sampled chords, with punchy 808s, a deep and warm bassline, dreamy pads and enchanting male/female call and response vocals. Perfect for a warm up or deep in the afters.With heavy support from the likes of Dyed Soundorom, Tini, Harry McCanna, and more, the Post Play boys are ready to add another buy on sight record to their growing discography.Tracklisting A1.

He has been doing much the same since the 90s with various projects from his cult TINK Records and the Tomorrow Is Now Kid!

Then comes Bristol-based don Sean McCabe, a master of vintage synths with a 20-year back catalog on seminal labels like Local Talk, Strictly Rhythm, and Z Records. His take on 'Ipanema Jazz', as he maintains the original's samba shuffle but (more...)
