Bit One (7:15)
Cloud Country (5:21)
Thinking Allowed (8:44)
Review: In a 2010 interview, Tornado Wallace explained the inspiration behind his distinctive title as "something between a deep south blues artist or a logger from Nebraska". In subsequent years the Australian has seemingly swapped the south blues artist for something southern Italo, keeping the Nebraskan edge with his logger's beard. This is demonstrated in wondrous fashion on the water-coloured artwork to Thinking Aloud, his debut EP for Lovefingers' ESP Institute. Heavy bass plods switch to a walking bassline in "Bit One", as motorised and starry arpeggios weave between breathy vocals that are as much human as they are synthesised. This is complemented by "Cloud Country" which lowers in BPM with more Italo inspired arpeggios, pulsating toms and sprinklings of Latin sounding synths. The title track "Thinking Allowed" hogs the flip, slowly revealing itself to be a Balearic burner of the highest calibre. It opens with an analogous kick-snare combo and a "higher-self" spoken word spiel that's reminiscent of Will Powers legendary "Adventures In Success". Peaks come; troughs go as the track builds sublimely before dovetailing back to its original form. Welcome back sir!

Review: Ruled by Passion, Destroyed by Lust marks the fine debut of The Asphodells, Andrew Weatherall's latest collaboration with close friend and creative foil Timothy J Fairplay. Their compatibility shines through, taking their shared interests and inspirations and playfully tosses them together to create a stylish, coherent whole. The album displays its dark underbelly proudly, but there are more than enough shards of light to inspire those salivating after the bold melodies of Two Lone Swordsmen or the naive, child-like bagginess of Weatherall's Screamadelica era work. At times reminiscent of New Order and others cripplingly paranoia inducing, this ten track set concludes in sublime fashion with the duo's dreamy, cosmic disco-era cover of A.R. Kane's "A Love From Out Of Space"

Cero (original version)
Cero (DJ Harvey remix)
Review: Second time round for Galarude's "Cero", which first appeared on Japan's Locarno Records way back in 2004. Produced by DJ Kent, Hiroshi Kawanabe and Noriyoshi Sassanuma (Sly Mongoose), the original version is a near perfect fusion of heavy tribal drums, beautiful tropical melodies and darting Balearic electronics. It may be nine years old, but it still sounds wonderfully fresh. That Prins Thomas has selected it for reissue is no surprise. This time round, there's also a bonus remix from hairy legend DJ Harvey. The reclusive party-starter shuffles the pack impressively, adding some snaking saxophone action on a version that delights in bringing out the original's most positive elements.

Make It Acid (Idjut Boys bonus mix)
Review: File Under Disco... File under flipping amazing, too if you like. Following the success of their remix on the JKriv & The Disco Machine's original last year, the ever-consistent Idjut Boys have re-remixed it for darker, late night floors. Removing the lolloping bassline of their original mix and replacing it with a classic Joey Beltram / Black Strobe style acid hook, it's a real gurner of a disco track that leans heavily towards the latest of hours. Need more cowbell? Course you do... Head for the bonus mix.

Walking Through Heaven’s Door (Zsou remix)
Caracas (Daniele Baldelli & Marco Dionigi Mental remix)
Review: The second in a series of Manzanera facelifts, here we find the Roxy Music guitarist getting two wonderfully complementary remixes. While Zsou takes "Walking Through Heaven's Door" on a deep, dark techno trip (think Ame with a touch of Beyer) with a heavy emphasis on pounding, primitive loopy vibes, Baldelli and Dionigi take "Caracas" to a sonic dreamland where harmonized vocals cascade into a lacy cosmic massage. Two left-minded, supremely creative overhauls for two completely different sides of the dance - you can't ask for much more, really.

Ahumbo (5:55)
Island Time (4:39)
If It Ever Feels Right (9:11)
Review: The Lovefingers helmed ESP Institute had a frankly killer year in 2012, and if this opening salvo for 2013 is anything to go by we're in for many more treats from the label this year. Pharoahs have already graced 100% Silk with their brand of disco-inspired synth jams, but these three tracks are infinitely more accomplished. "Ahumbo" combines subtle Afrobeat influences with thick, lustrous bass and the kind of spacious guitar licks that would make Talking Heads jealous, while the dubby feel and atonal percussion of "Island Time" recall Ital's brilliant track "Queens". Finally, the "If It Ever Feels Right" goes in as hard as you could imagine an ESP release going, with thick analogue bass tumbling out of control at 132bpm driven relentlessly forward by a conga-led rhythm, which segues effortlessly into a blissful saxophone breakdown. Unsurprisingly, this is excellent stuff which comes highly recommended.

Track 1
Track 2
Review: The mysterious New York Edits return here, with their stock at it's highest; through a combination of intrigue and word of mouth hype the series has attained the kind of salacious desire amongst record buyers not seen since the early Black Disco or RVNG Of The NRDS releases. The third release arrives with few clues as to origin sporting two more druggy, chuggy gems perfect for various moments in the night. The A Side is full on 3am sleaze, lurching into action of a live drum break and a hypnotic synth hook which seems to reach into infinity before a sultry female lead takes centre stage and things get a whole lot more flirtatious on the feet. Flipside, the smooth orchestral arrangements and hand clap augmented groove make for perfect warm up material.

Chante vs James (aka The Same)
Wanna Get Next To Me
Moments Of Dance
Review: Lumberjacks In Hell score a real coup here in releasing the "Chante vs James" edit from Chicago based DJ Hugo H; a long term weapon of Rahaan, it's been embraced ahead of release by the likes of Soul Clap and few could deny the instant appeal of it. Deftly cutting up some prime fonk from James Brown and the accapella from a late 90s Chante Moore's slow jam, it's the epitome of bumping Chi Town house. Hutchinson gets a further chance to flex his timeless Chicago style on 2 more tracks that apply the same equation of drum heavy rhythms with infectious vocal hooks and slick melodic turns. "Moments of Dance" is particularly beguiling in its execution.

Gredits - "Doin' It Deep"
Elef - "Lazy Liz"
The Candy Dealers - "Time Machine"
Illyus - "Movin' House"
Review: Volume Six of the esteemed Sccucci Manucci operation sees the Tom Selleck of disco-flecked house rack up the air miles with an international cast of talent contributing. Contemporary disco connoisseurs should be fully aware of Gredits, the Swedish producer with previous on the Basic Fingers label; "Doing It Deep" does it right, seductively teasing out a killer looped up disco groove that gets more flirtatious with every listen. German dwelling Greek producer Elef takes us into classicist house terrain with the infectious bump and shuffle of "Lazy Liz", whilst a long promised Sccucci weapon from The Candy Dealers (aka Christian Malloni & Jay West finally sees release on the flip. Glaswegian Illyus returns for a second bite of the Manucci cherry with the late night dubby house goodness of "Movin House".

El Molito - "Can't You See I'm Having A Rough Time"
Cristobal & Koosh - "Secret Rendezvous"
Review: There's only one single drawback on this release. As there is with the other Red Motorbike releases... Grooves as juicy and cosmic as these should be pressed to 12 for more sonic dynamism! This is such a small gripe, however, as these collectable 7"s are lovingly stamped in Hamburg by Red Motorbike boss Eddie C himself... And they sound amazing anyway. "Can't You See..." is a lolloping slinky slap-bass loop that's been processed to deadly hypnotic effect. "Secret Rendezvous", meanwhile, is more of the Nordic school of disco, sounding like Terje on a sleepy morning. On your bikes!

Cimmerian Funk
Nubian West Coast
Glide To Xanadu
Falcon Cruise
Review: Keeping up with Legowelt's productions is one thing, whereas keeping up with his aliases is another. Danny Wolfer's steady flow of Nacho Patrol releases continues, and this time it's via Mike Simonetti's fledgling label New Jersey. The opener and title track, "Cimmerian Funk", sounds something like a demented version of the Doctor Who theme meeting the funk drums of The Stone Roses' "Fools Gold". Squealing Dr. Dre synths may have been some of the inspiration behind "Nubian West Coast", while the housiest track on the record goes to "Glide To Xanadu". The Wuka-wuka funk of "Falcon Cruise" maintains an electric pace and its night time drive motif is something French producer Kavinksy could only dream of, all that is missing is a cheeky "Shaft" vocal.

Mawson's Walk
Review: Given his duties as head of Claremont 56 as well as active in various other projects such as Bison and Paqua, it's no surprise that Paul Mudd Murphy's collaborations with Kevin Pollard are infrequent at best, with four previous Mudd & Pollard twelve inches spanning some three years distance. However they're always worthy of your attention, as this one sided 12" attests. "Mawsons Walk" brims with all the disco trimmings you could want from a Claremont 56 release: loose Rhodes, some brass, low slung beats and infectious melody. A satisfying and bighearted 12".

Inkswel - "So Over It" (feat Reggie B)
Freekwency - "Just For Two" (feat Molly D)
Review: Following killer transmissions for Unthank and Dopeness Galore last year, our favourite Australian funkateer Inkswel opens 2013 with a bang and a bump in the shape of Hot Shot Records, a new label the Melbourne based producer has founded with like minded soul Freekwency. Both artists contribute a side each to this debut release, a dinky seven that is practically bursting with unrestricted soulful drum machine music. Inkswel calls shotgun, teaming up with vocalist Reggie B for the glorious MPC fonk of "So Over It" whilst Voyeurhythm artist Freekwency also collaborates with a singer Molly D on the resplendent drum machine glisten of "Just For Two". It's only begun for Hot Shots - keep an eye on this label!

By Design - "Stir It Together"
Osmose - "Al Knows What's Up"
Osmose - "Slomo Tattoo Dubbed"
Review: Cruising nice and easy into earshot on the Smokecloud imprint, byDesign and Osmose take a side each in chopping up some choice old classics with a tender touch to work in modern contexts. byDesign gets the whole A-side to roam over with a version of Diana King's cover of the Bob Marley classic, "Stir It Up", working on a 90s flavoured hip hop groove and dubby cuts of King's vocal. On the flip, Osmose is having a lot of fun working on Alexander O'Neal's "Fake", keeping the tough beat intact and instead letting the effects bring in the changes. While the origin of the last track on the 12" is undetectable at this point, "Slomo Tattoo Dubbed" comes on like a prime slice of Balearic goodness, packing easy horn blasts, funky guitar licks and a whole lot of filter action.

Bonus Slice
Review: As anyone who follows their Facebook feed can attest, the still-somehow-mysterious Tiger & Woods have largely spent the past twelve months treating the clubs of Europe and beyond to their own distinct brand of heavily diced up and devilishly EQ'd disco goodness. As a result, Editainment releases have slowed somewhat, though last year's Castle Rock EP from River & Phoenix demonstrated a welcome stylistic diversion into 80s teen drama classics. The Banana Balls EP heralds the return of Larry & David. There are few words that can be said about "Pitch" and "Slice" that haven't been uttered about a Tiger & Woods production previously, though given the fact the great edit glut of 2010-11 has thankfully passed it's probably quite nice to drop these loopy gems in the midst of a house set. The high octane "Slice" is a particularly rubbery delight.
