Low Motion Disco - Love Love Love (2x12")

Eskimo has just released Love Love Love by Low Motion Disco, a split double 12 inch containing remixes by L.S.B., Aeroplane and DFA signing Still Going. Even though I try to track down all releases on this great Belgian label, the debut album of Low Motion Disco somehow never caught my attention. I still haven't got my hands on a copy, but judging by this track it should be a killer!

The original version of Love Love Love is a balearic comedown tune which would fit in perfectly in a Prins Thomas or Lindstrom set. The track immediately stuck in my mind, but only after a while I realized why: the track samples Rene & Angela's "I love you more", a funky eighties soul balad and François K favourite (check his Choice-selection on Azuli).

The remix I like playing out most at the moment is the Still Going version, even though all of them are excellent. (They really are!)

Spinnin' - Bernard Wright

I recently bought the latest installment of Defected's In the House series. Over the years I picked up a number of them, including the one from Masters at Work, Dimitri from Paris and Jazzy Jeff. All good solid house compilations, often well-mixed.
And Gilles Peterson's comp is an absolute winner too. There's not a mediocre track insight, and the mixing is swell too. But even with the quality being this high, one track still stood out for me: Bernard Wright's Spinnin' of his Nard-album.
Once in a while you come across tracks that you really need to have. No matter what. So I logged into Amazon and ordered an import copy. A couple of days later the cd was in the mail. I slipped it into the cd-player and quickly found out that Gilles had used a heavily re-edited version of the song. A re-edit which was nowhere to be found.
So there was only one thing I could do: try to make my own re-edit. And here it is. I hope you enjoy it.

How to start?

Instead of going on about myself endlessly, I just posted a mix of Brazilianesque music I created a couple of months ago. Hope it inspires the sun to show itself a little bit more.
