FSQs Freak Out For Fitness aka FOFF is a fitness anthem, a new wave disco funk affair written by FSQs Chuck Da Fonk and One Era that should evoke the soundtracks of 1980s fitness crazes. Soul Claps Charles Levine, aka Charlie Soul Clap, leads off this package with an extra heavy weight sounding remix that pumps up the original with a funky house vibe. The Lisbona Sisters, fresh off their debut release for Seth Troxlers Slacker, go full cardio set to an Italo disco regimen on their remix of FOFF and while you can hear Giorgio Moroder arpeggios in the mix, theres also a muscular funk veneer bulking up the track. Third Attempt, the producer hailing from the heart of Nu-disco land, Tromsø, Norway (now living in Oslo) uses his remix of FOFF as a showcase for his signature trip-hop-house sound, warming up the musical elements from the original as they build up a sweat over a sultry, six minute plus session.

LUXXURYs new EP summarizes his new sound: simpler, electronic-er, but as disco as always. Instrumental bangers like I Want U and Say Goodbye to These share the addictive 80s synthpop sensibilities of Depeche Mode, New Order and Pet Shop Boys, and provide the perfect soundtrack for a late night drive; while Strangely Familiar is a a 130 BPM dance floor destroyer with pummeling 16th note synths and driving Roland 606 beats. If the song seems strangely familiar, thats because its a hyper-caffeinated sibling of Perfect Forever, with whom it shares some vocals but completely reimagined music. The EP was inspired by original disco masters Giorgio Moroder and his French counterpart Cerrone, as well as the whimsy of Todd Terje and the darkwave touches of Detroit synthpop duo Adult. Roll down the windows and feel the night breeze as you drive into an uncertain future.

The albums themes of human connection and togetherness on the dancefloor continue with It Feels Much Better, taking discerning listeners through day into night.
Recharging the U.K. Dance #1 single, British producer Friend Within offers up a funky house flip of Stretch & Verns Im Alive. Injecting vibrant energy into the classic by blending bouncy bassline with infectious rhythms and an irresistible feel-good vibe, this reimagination is a must-spin for house heads and groove lovers alike.
Black Hawks of Panama steps in with a road tested club cut - one that comes with a fervid stamp of approval from myriad punters at Pikes. The ingredients are simple: a slapping disco kit, Alpha Juno, zesty guitar licks and an anthemic vocal. The result is a contagious Italo march that burrows deep under the skin; put simply - a slice of pure rapture. The drums kit's boxing jabs act as the propeller while the bass line rolls through a hypnotic circuit. Psychedelic adornments drop in some beads of colour, creating a prismatic catwalk upon which the vocal struts in to electrifying effect. Funk-laden licks dash in some further flair as progress drives on towards a minor key synth that bleeds in, piloting a subtly tense breakdown that pops wide open for a triumphant conclusion.
Giving their special disco twist to one of the genres classics, Les Bisous go all out to recharge Joe Bataans hit. Amplifying the disco flavor with a groovy bassline and a squeaky synth melody, Clap Your Hands (Rap-O-Clap-O) is just the kind of bubbly goodness todays dance floors need.
Reel People Music expands the fizzing dynamic between highly accomplished label associates Opolopo (AKA Peter Major) and Angela Johnson with the release of their brand new album Best of Both Worlds. The nine-track record is a sublime meeting of soulful musical minds, building on the pairs previous track-by-track collaboration, as well as influences ranging from Quincy Jones and The Gap Band to Ohio Players and The Isley Brothers, with purpose, poise and punch. Opolopos vibrant live-sounding studio craft meets Johnsons rich and deliciously textured vocals – nuff said! Actually, Johnson spells it out for us on Best of Both Worlds short, but sweeping Intro – an effective prologue for the fresh, feel-good music to come thatll make you want to dance…move… maybe love on somebody. Buffalo is an immediate proof point, infectious percussion and scat play chopping between deep down synth-bass and cosmic jazz-funk solos before firing euphorically into full-on 4-4 groove. Theres a similar energy pulsing through The Ones You Love, with its struttin disco mix of bass guitar and piano, as well as Possibilities, which adeptly weds live house drums to spacy swirls of synth and quick-fire guitar plucks. Johnson is ever attuned to tempo and melody, adding depth and momentum in equal, captivating measure. Elsewhere, on Somebody, her song of selfish love and redemption is performed with suitable sass over an Opolopo production beautifully primed by peacocking b-lines and guitar riffs. For She Knows, meanwhile, Johnson addresses the theme of betrayal with emotional nuance and grit, her delivery climbing confidently upon mid-tempo licks of piano-stabbed nu-soul. In The Meadows slows proceedings further, tender vocals riding a relaxed, horn-polished flow with grace and charm. That leaves the heart-swelling, call-to-arms uplift of Show Up, Show Out – classic soulful chords, driving horns, soaring song - and a propulsive Outro – further reminders, if reminders are needed, of Best of Both Worlds searing song and studio credentials, as well as of the unique chemistry and electric creativity between its makers. Angie and I didnt have any agenda when making this record other than just living in the feeling. The vibe between us was easy, as always, so the grooves and songs flowed organically, Major explains. The quality and range of Angies vocals blow me away. They add so much soul and feel-good energy to the tracks we create. More than that they pull everything together and take you on a journey. Best of Both Worlds is funky, driving, danceable… but it also has honesty and depth. We didnt want to make anything obvious, Johnson adds. This album looks to connect with the themes that concern and inspire people around the world right now. Peter challenged me. His musical ideas are really wide-ranging, which was a breath of fresh air in terms of pushing me to perform in different ways – from soul beats to uptempo to my gospel roots. Were from different parts of the musical spectrum but fit together perfectly. It really is the best of both worlds, hence the album title. Based in Stockholm, Sweden, DJ-producer Opolopo continues to fruitfully explore the frontiers of funkiness after some two decades of productions right across the soulful dancefloor spectrum for labels such as Local Talk, Z Records and Defected. His remix discography includes Gregory Porter, Jungle, Leroy Burgess and Mothers Favorite Child. New York native Angela Johnson was a member of acid jazz group Coolys Hot Box before enjoying solo success via a string of acclaimed R&B albums including They Dont Know, Its Personal and Naturally Me. During the Noughties, Johnson featured on Reel People singles Cant Stop, In The Sun and You Used To Hold Me So Tight. Most recently, she has collaborated with Opolopo on hit Reel People Music singles Stay This Way, Good Lover and Sunshine. Reel People Music is a label borne out of the success of acclaimed collective Reel People but representing so much more. Launched in late 2009, the imprint has built a fiercely loyal international fanbase through its passion for artist development, musicianship, song-craft and soulful groove. Produced in Sweden and the US last year, Best Of Both Worlds marks the latest shining output from a renowned record label and talented studio partnership with so much soulfully to say. Its a joy to listen.
Small Talk returns with a two-track release, Gangsters and Sunshine. The lead track delivers a swanky, funky nu-disco groove featuring signature funky basslines, chunky drums, and soulful keys.

Both tracks have been dancefloor-tested and approved, showcasing Small Talks knack for blending grooves and rhythms. Gangsters and Sunshine is a must-listen for any dance music enthusiast. Available now on all major platforms.
In-demand, groove-fuelled producer Opolopo and 24 Carat singer-songwriter Angela Johnson introduce brand new single Possibilities on Reel People Music, the third single to precede their eagerly awaited album Best of Both Worlds due later this year. Best of Both Worlds is simply feel-good music that'll 'make you want to dance…move… maybe love on somebody'. Possibilities, adeptly weds live house drums to spacy swirls of synth and quick-fire guitar plucks. Johnson is ever attuned to tempo and melody, adding depth and momentum in equal, captivating measure. Stockholm-based DJ-producer Opolopo (real name Peter Major) can boast two decades' worth of productions right across the soulful dancefloor spectrum for labels such as Local Talk, Z Records and Defected. His remix discography includes Gregory Porter, Jungle, Leroy Burgess and Mother's Favorite Child. NYC native Angela Johnson was a member of acid jazz group Cooly's Hot Box before enjoying solo success via a string of acclaimed R&B albums including They Don't Know, It's Personal and Naturally Me. During the Noughties, Johnson featured on Reel People singles Can't Stop, In The Sun and You Used To Hold Me So Tight. Possibilities is another slam dunk for two exceptional artists with much more to come. It's also a continuation of Reel People Music's incredible discographic run. Borne out of the success of acclaimed collective Reel People in 2009, the label has built a fiercely loyal international fanbase through its passion for artist development, musicianship, song-craft and soulful groove.
LUXXURYs new instrumental banger I Want U provides another perfect soundtrack for a late night drive: a deceptively simple Roland 808 beat and a hypnotic 16th note bassline inspired by original disco master Giorgio Moroder, the whimsy of Norweigan DJ Todd Terje and the addictive 80s synthpop sensibilities of Depeche Mode, New Order and Pet Shop Boys. Roll down the windows and feel the night breeze as you drive into an uncertain future.
