Rare Pleasure – Super Fine Feeling (Ashley Beedle Edit)
A’s and Bees

Only previously ever pressed on an almost unattainable acetate, rare as rocking horse shit and changing hands for a mere £400 upwards, this 1977 modern-soul-tinged disco classic from Rare Pleasure will now be available for those on a leaner budget. It’s all about the soaring vocal harmonies, jamming guitars and big band sections and who better to provide the modern edit than Ashley Beedle himself, offering up some delicate tweaking & dubbing, editing out to over 10 minutes for maximum dancefloor bedlam.

In 1998 Fire Island (aka Pete Heller and Terry Farley) hit the No 1 spot in the US ‘Hot Dance Music Play’ chart with Shout To The Top. Originally recorded by Paul Weller back in ‘85, Hifi Sean was recently granted permission to get his hands all dusty from the original tapes containing the golden vocals of Salsoul royalty Loleatta Holloway. Hifi brings this beauty into the present with these 3 versions including a soulful string laden soul groover, a real late night pumping gospel house jam and a swooning orchestral reprise.

DJ and producer extraordinaire Phil Fuldner makes his long overdue 2021 Midnight Riot debut. Alongside one of his closest friends & his brother in spirit, Dan Dinsing, a multi-creative designer and musician, Dan has been instrumental in many of Phil’s greatest hits. Colors is an ode to all things deep, sensuous and serious.

Blue Dream – A Trip To LA
Tangential Music

Andy Compton is undisputedly one of the hardest working producers in dance music. The Bristol-based producer is a master of creating profoundly funky and vibey music. His latest long player for Tangential Music is a collaboration with LA artists Irantzu Pujadas and Brad Kent under the name Blue Dream. Think of the sun-facing vibes of Shuggie Otis, Eddie Chacon, Bobby Caldwell at his most relaxed and add a passionate knowledge and experienced grasp of electronic forms. ‘Trip To LA’ is a much needed balm for these times.
