Johnwaynes have been around for a considerable time, and their musical output has gone around the world, both geographically and aesthetically. From their first releases, up to now, they have produced under the same guise, a widely diverse body of work, from simple and minimalist acid house, to full-on orchestra oriented classics with the occasional drift into the more elegant territories of boogie and disco-funk. From Japan's Mule Electronique, to legendary Compost and London's now seminal Dissident, amongst many other outputs, Johnwaynes's DJ Jepe and Mr Beat have had a prolific 4 year run from the onset of their recording career.

All through 2009, the Waynes felt a growing distance from the reality of their own home country and took notice of Groovement's strong national-only artist roster and decided to do a special track. The result was the deep, super-groovy, and efficient piece of political mellow house of "Falling Leaves", that borrows the message of one of Minister Farrakhan's most controversial speeches on economic dominance, and lays it against a comfortable, rhodes laden, boogie house instrumental, that reminds us of early KDJ releases or of Trus'Me's first Prime Numbers work. More than just a groove, a track that states a position and makes a stand.
Then came the remix. Humberto "Social Disco Club" Matias managed to be one of the few portuguese names to break through, internationally. He quickly took a pole position in the post-nu-disco scene, with a considerable amount of music being released through many a well regarded labels, and was the man in charge for the job. The result was a melt-down of the original elements into an amazingly simple, yet surprisingly hypnotic, almost "beatdown" groove that slowly grows into a feel-good dancefloor killer for the more musically aware crowd.

The Social Disco Club remix is really tense, great subtle build-up and an equally great pay-off! nice work
