1 Year On...

Well where does a year go?Just realised that my blog has been going now for that long and the time has flown by.So I thought for such a day i would post some good old house music.I'm gonna post three tracks tonight and for three reasons...1 They were close at hand when shifting through stacks of vinyl, 2 There is some top people behind them, 3 There all really f**king good and bring back wonderful memories.
So on with the first one and it's by NYC's Romain & Danny Krivit with their "Philly Groove E.P" which was released in 2000 on US Label Metro Trax.I've chosen the b side "Ride" which is a stonking piece of driving druggy garage/disco with samples from Philly's MFSB's "Family Affair." Mmmmn very tasty!!!
Next up is a track taken from maybe one of my all time favourite party cut up albums.Australian party funksters The Avalanches "Since I Left You" was and still is really something special and an album that you can keep going back to and which still brings a smile to your face.Genius!
Here you get Sarcastic Disco's DJ Harvey getting us all hot and sweaty for some late night action with his 'Nightclub Re-Edit' of "Electricity".
Last but not least is from the Uk Label Azuli with Vol 4 of their Disco Elements series released in 1994 and produced by the ever impressive Rob Mello.This is the first track on the B side "Muzik Takes Me Higher" which samples Sylvester's "You Make Me Feel." I remember at the time this getting caned with the likes of Frankie Knuckles,David Morales and Tony Humphries to name a few.Man it all sounds so good again!!!
Here's to another year...
