What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Ant feeling ecstatic.

One of my guilty pleasures is Italo disco. You can laugh all you want but the Italians made some totally futuristic electronic music. Since I-F brought out his mixed up in the Hauge mix and launched his CBS radio show it's become very popular again with some of the original tracks selling for silly money and some timely reissues. Apparently Rephlex beat Morgan Geist to reissuing the Black Devil Disco Club 12"s which were immensely popular and launched producer Bernard Fevre back into the limelight. Lo Recordings released a smashing album called 28 After. Presumably 28 years after the original tracks. Many of the tracks draw on the same pallate of sounds and aprregiated synths. It's a winning formula that would shake collective dancefloor ass with each track sounding almost like a remix of the last. So here I have 'Black Devil In Dub' which does what it says on the tin. I've been listening to a promo of this for a bit and was totally mincing it up in the car at the weekend with my personal fave 'Constantly No Respect (Dub) ' blaring from the speakers. The vinyl features just the dubs while the CD also includes collabs with some of the modern disco producers like Prinz Thomas Quiet Village and that lot but I'm not really interested in them.

What the label says:

Hot on the heels of last year’s incredible ‘28 After’ album, Black Devil return with their sinister, psychedelic disco sound. Containing 6 electronic dub versions of the album tracks by the Devil himself plus 6 by some of the Devil’s biggest fans who just happen to be some of the best exponents of the cosmic nu disco sound. Elitechnique fresh from their remix for Alden Tyrell and 12" on the mighty Clone label, turn in an absolutely storming euro monster and what’s this the vocals are now in French? Suitably bizarre! The mighty Prins Thomas stretches the original out into an elastic tripped out space monster. Brooklyn’s finest, the illustrious In Flagranti turn in a chunky, deep and bumping mix. Quiet Village have been having it away all over the place recently, with incredible mixes for Allez Allez, The Gorillas and Cosmo Vitelli plus their always sold out, impossible to find releases on Whatever We Want. They produce a taut psychological thriller worthy of John Carpenter. This really has to be heard on a big system to be believed. Black Mustang take you on a twisted Goblin like journey into the darkest recesses of the acid disco brain. Look out for their forthcoming 12" with Kerrier District and Sleeparchive. And to cap it all Unit 4 aka Jupiter Black/Isolators turn in perhaps their deepest hit yet. A beautiful, brooding slice of 21st century electronics.
