80 nyc disco

the no stress express rolls back into town with their second offering for rogue cat sounds, where they pick you up and transport you to the sunnier climes and headier days of 1980s caribbean. steel drums, loose-limbed percussion, lazy synth stabs and carefree basslines, all infused with a whiff of woodbines, jerk chicken and dark rum. as the sun sets, the party picks up momentum. barefoot beach dancing.

remix by nyc legend justin strauss

electric ethno fusion

80s influenced disco / cosmic / house

cute swedish pop from 1984. a gothenburg secret. passed from music for dreams kenneth bager to cantomas phil mison to rogue cat sounds dean and ben. pop that rocks a cool, faux-reggae lilt with bluesman licks and harmonica hooks. cute like other sought after rogue cat favourites. terry crawford s gunfighter. or romie singh sdancing to forget. martin caine s snowbird city. its lyrics asupercalifragilisticexpialidocious-like nursery rhyme front, framing bad girl playground reminiscences.

mind fair return with a deadly two-part interpretation of the joe jackson classic steppin out. for their latest rogue cat sounds incarnation the golf channel mainstays have enlisted the indispensable talents of charmaine baines on vocals, climax blues bands derek holt (bass &guitar) and alex bradbury (sundown drive) on keys. this slowed down, melting pot of soca not soca meets lovers rock, reggae, blues and soul is brought to you in two parts part one deals mostly with the song, charmaine s vocals sounding suitably dreamy and laid back whilst part two puts focus on the instrumental groove where the guitars, strings and rhodes are the main attraction. mark e provides one of his merc dubs on the flip which takes a afro rhythm meets beat down central then builds intensively with rhodes and a horn section breakdown to die for the man is on form! essential music to step out to this summer for sure!

limited edition 12 inch in picture sleeve with artwork by mighty wright. city life is one of the two releases on the beau-jolly label, dating from the following year. a handclapping, screaming, chase through breaking glass and slick 80s pop videos. uptown downtown. red lipstick and white fur coats. glamour, gangs, and boppers. the exclusive artwork by chris wright of turbo island illustrates the crazy in & out vagaries of loves playground.

location 141? location unknown? although one would hazard a guess at somewhere in the ether between chicago and detroit (that is, of course, if we didnt know any better). this mysterious créature de la nuit sits comfortably between the two places of influence and bends them into his own style to herald rogue cat sounds first emergence of 2014 and, in doing so, unfurls two killer, bumpin and weighty jams for the discernable discoid freaks in all of us.

rogue cat sounds are back in town with a real treat. charm with you, a warm female soulful number, hits the spot in every way

every now and then, a record comes along…this is one of those occasions. but...it is not any old record, it is a new one. specifically, the new 12inch single from sundown drive, brought to you by mind fair and rogue cat sounds. moving on from the body and soul that embodied their first trip, sd transcend you to the annals of deep clubland and melodically twist your heart strings with an early morning flutter and a tantric tension. the meandering-yet-purposeful piano finding its feet later in the proceedings this time, but rising to full effect, leaving only the dub to knock us sideways into a beautifully-simplistic dark alley of spring reverbs, synthesized prophecy and the voices in ya head telling you to give it up.

the rogue cat swings into town yet again for this, the fourth time. in the guise of mislead-back-room-bass-bellowing miscreants, and in-keeping with their ethos of anything-goes-as-long-as-it-blows, rcs step up to the plate with another oddball belter of an e.p. in this excursion, warehouse-warlord the rhythm odyssey teams up with deep house botherer benny upsetter for a dirty and dishevelled dance floor detonation.

excellent deep disco house madness, incl the rhythm odyssey mix
