The Parisian DJs duo is back with a shining new 7inch full of Latin & Brazilian Soul-Funk vibes... With raw drums and percussions, these 2 new tracks should warm every dancefloors with their spicy groove!!Cléon & Jazzy Pidjay have been United through their love of music and hip-hop culture for a while. Dj Cleon is one of the finest producers in France for breakdance battle breaks, also known as a fine wax digger, mixing all kinds of music together, such as Disco, Funk, Soul, Jazz, Break-Beat, Hip-Hop and more old and new records. Alongside his mate Jazzy Pidjay and his great production and mixing’ skills, they give a new dancefloor life to these forgotten musical treasures, through funky uptempo tracks.

Nootkatone, the slightly acid groove. A diva on the wire, a brass ensemble out of control and a surgical rhythm section. This team of young musicians hits the Parisian stage with this first EP completely self-produced. Recorded in the rules at Midilive Studio in Paris, the musicians put forward a new jazz-funk that they call “the Katone”. Their music moves by its sincerity and subtlety. Doubtless, one of the brightest groups of the capital city of love.

Miss D used to work as a model in New York. That she ended up in Vienna was sheer coincidence. That she became a recording artist was never planned, either. She moved to the Austrian capital with a well-known commercial producer in the mid-1980s, and soon she found herself recording TV ads for ice cream manufacturers. One day in the recording studio, someone had the brilliant idea of making a proper record with her. The outcome was the highly sought-after disco oddity "Moving", most copies of which were destroyed due to a lack of commercial success. Now getting a second chance, "Moving" is as strong as Austrian disco productions from that era come: slow, bouncy, full of personality and consistently surprising. So, three cheers to coincidences and random ideas in recording studios. This is a most memorable 7".

The Word is one of the better-kept secrets of 1980s Austrian disco music. Yet once you put the needle on this record, you notice that it sounds oddly familiar. The awe-inspiring signature piece “Lobster” has the same analogue, slow-moving aesthetic as Zenit’s timeless “Waiting” that was featured on Edition Hawara’s first release. The same goes for the three other wonderfully unconventional, proto-electronic songs: “Easy”, “All My Life” and the eponymous “The Word”. And there are even more commonalities with Zenit’s LP: The vocals are Linda Sharrock’s, who here teamed up with Karl “Charly” Ratzer and Peter Ponger, the twin brother of legendary Falco producer Robert Ponger. The result of this collaboration is, well, also quite legendary. How this kind of sound emerged in Vienna in 1984 is still a bit of a mystery, but clearly all the stars were aligned when Sharrock, Ratzer and Ponger were jamming in the studio. We are very proud to share this secret with you. Just as there are very few lobsters in landlocked Vienna, there are very few records like this out there.

First production of the label Sound Crack Records, “Organic Feeling (Tool Mix)” is a run through the jungle, savage, tribal, the raw nature animals of Mama earth bring the feeling of being in the middle of them, the TR08 add a kick to the efficient duo live drum Fleury Saint Denis. A real tool for house and techno DJ's to pump the energy to the top.On the B side comes “Before Midnight (Evolution Mix)”. This techno track is a trip in the urban jungle, when the city sounds are coming out of nowhere, the melody of the steel tongue drum live played by DJ GSD is bringing the human vibration to heal the soul. An old school touch of Detroit techno, mix with a meaningful speech of Kennedy will take you travelling through the evolution of mankind.
