Having co-run a string of hugely successful club nights across the middle east and picking up Time Out middle east's 'Best underground night 20102, it seemed the logical step for Lapelle to pack up his things and take over another corner of the globe. 2012 will see him move his synths west to set up shop in the bustling city of Toronto! He has found the time to share a few of his influences and share an exclusive track, prior to dropping into London next week for a secret gig and! Watch out for a string of synthetic odysseys which [...]
The Disco Syndicate machine continues to knock off bootlegs at terrifying speed. Chain bootlegging. If Disco Syndicate were to be doing this legally he would need a team of at least 15 solicitors working around the clock to get clearance for one afternoons work. His Soundcloud is now hosting over 70 edits and raising and swelling. Admittedly a fair few of them are bollocks but as they say, throw enough shit and something's going to stick. And he's getting better at throwing shit.

The Last Days of Disco is the third film in writer / director Whit Stillman's series of comedies depicting young urban bourgeoisie lifestyle, following the more widely acclaimed and popular Metropolitan and Barcelona . Released in 1998 and set in 1980-81, The Last Days of Disco follows a group of WASPy Ivy League grads in New York City as they navigate their first jobs and search for romance in nightly visits to 'The Club,' a disco- and dance-filled nod to Studio 54. The dialogue here is consistently rich and brilliant, from the entire scene [...]

A late night of crate digging offered up this slice of soulful serendipity and it's been sunny ever since. Alliteration aside -hmmm- here's the soundtrack to your balmy afternoon lounging in the July sunshine. This came to my attention through the Dynamics cover on the King Midas Sound Fact Mix which is well worth searching out if your in the market for vibes so laid back you're upside down.

I don't know if anyone has noticed but homercat has kinda been taking a break from Good Rockin' during this fine April. Fine weather, hockey playoffs, more work and other assorted goings on has kept my computer time limited. Last week homercat's ole lady finally got the rest of her vinyl collection transported to our place from it's former resting place in Alberta. Most of her collection hasn't seen the light of day for thirty years or more. I found it interesting that she [...]

rejoice in the 1000 year reign of the king and queen of miami soul, gwen & george mccrae. Gwen McCrae - 90% of Me Is You George McCrae - I Get Lifted buy gwen buy george

Often compared to Aretha Franklin , Gwen McCrae sang some of the most popular R&B hits of the last 50 years. In 1982 she recorded an epic disco banger titled " Keep The Fire Burning " and it's perfect for that late night vibe that will ensure the dance floor will stay high energy into the wee hours of the night.

Every now and then I like to open up the archives and reminisce about a couple tracks you may or may not have heard. It's a little break from the usual flow of newer stuff one might find on here. So for the first installment I wanted to highlight the best funk and soul tracks to flow my way this past year. I know that's a pretty bold statement considering the amount of tracks tossed up. This list is pretty subjective anyway. Each bring their own unique style to the genre. Real classy, I hope you enjoy em all. [...]

In my last post I said I was going to be out of town for a few days. Well it didn't happen. My Thanksgiving turned to shit, literally . The night before I was planning on leaving I was outside watering roses when *it* happened. First an unholy aroma of death starts to waft, then, like a cross between the bleeding walls of the Amityville house and a Port-o-John, sewer water starts pouring through every crack in my driveway. 2 days, a busted sewer main and couple of [...]

A track that could make 9am Monday feel like a Friday, quitting time at 4:59pm. Gwen McCrae - "Funky Sensation"

Gwen McCrae started out singing in the Pentecostal Churches of Pensacola Florida. As a Pentecostal Minister, she was heavily involved in the Church and in Gospel music. However, as she transitioned from musical expressions of the Church into those of clubs and mainstream music, she put her religion aside. Gwen was of course married to T.K recording artist George McCrae. They met in 1963 whilst he was in the navy in Pensacola. Their rather rocky relationship is cited by Gwen as one of the reasons she wasn't propelled into success in her singing career. [...]

Er...my buddy Chemistry Lad, aka DCMarkie, is a supaduper photog these days. Check it out -even the mighty DCist thinks so. When stuff like this happens in my life, I often wonder, often aloud: What would Christina Ricci say? (more...)

My favorite moments when putting this together: a) hearing the sample for Das Efx's "Danger" in the Gwen McCrae track below and b) hearing Teddy Pendergrass say "come here woman!" mad abruptly in what's supposed to be the true "let me slow rock you on top of a bed of rose petals and marshmellows" type track. Dig in! 1. Loose Ends - " Hangin' On A String " from "The Lover In You" 2. Debarge - " I Like It " from "On The Bugged Tip" 3. BT [...]
