Record of the week: Amaru Tribe - Golden Roots Fr Record of the week: Amaru Tribe - Golden Roots

Fresh music for the turntable from Melbourne, Australia: Amaru Tribe’s third album and their second release on vinyl. It features plenty of danceable tracks, Cumbia, Global Bass, ancestral influences and lots of percussion, in collaboration with Chancha Via Circuito, Afrosideral, QVLN, Gaita Loop and Adam Alydrus. A truly lovely album off the beaten track and a great reason to support independent musicians. Only a few brief passages featuring Autotune (or so it sounds to me, at least) fail to really win me over. However, this is solely down to my aversion to this technique and doesn’t detract from the album as a whole. Enjoy!

Record of the week: U.N. - same Another cheesy 7 Record of the week: U.N. - same 

Another cheesy 70s album cover adorns the sole release by U.N., a Disco studio project by Tony Green – the Canadian producer, songwriter and label boss who produced France Joli and other well-known Disco artists.

Released in 1979 on the Prelude label, it is at first glance a typical Disco record with a four-on-the-floor beat and plenty of brass and strings. But "Hot Lover" and "Disco Power" are actually very good songs, featuring catchy vocal parts by Goldie Alexander and lovely electronic gimmicks. So you don’t have to buy this record just for the cover…

A lovely evening and a trip down memory lane at th A lovely evening and a trip down memory lane at the @n17eventlounge with music from the 80s. No mash-ups, no remixes (apart from contemporary 12“ maxi-single versions), no re-recordings – just the originals on vinyl. Many thanks to the wonderful hosts!

Record of the week: Blancmange - Mange tout Some Record of the week: Blancmange - Mange tout 

Sometimes you find little gems in the bargain bin. Like the second album by the English Synth-Pop band Blancmange, which was also their most successful. I thought "Don’t Tell Me" was brilliant back in 1984 when it came out (and that hasn’t changed to this day). But the rest of the album is well worth a listen too. And as my DJ set on Friday is all about the 80s, this is a great way to get in the mood.

Record of the week: The Rolling Stones - The Rolli Record of the week: The Rolling Stones - The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus 

What a spectacle! At least, that’s what the Rolling Stones’ Rock and Roll Circus was supposed to be. 300 fans had won tickets in an NME competition and on 11 December 1968, filming began for a show that was never broadcast on television. It wasn’t until 1996 that the film and the soundtrack were released.

The rift between Brian Jones and the rest of the band had come to a head; three months later he was sacked, and six months later he died. The Who were good, Jethro Tull hadn’t yet reached the peak of their career, and Yoko Ono was as annoying as ever. Somehow, the show comes across as sleep-deprived, drug-fuelled and bizarre. Nevertheless, it’s a historical document and a must-have for any Stones fan. On vinyl, of course, above all.

Record of the week: Original Son del Barrio - Mexi Record of the week: Original Son del Barrio - Mexican Dope 

Original Son Del Barrio (O.S.D.B.) is a music project by Ángel Pérez, a singer, songwriter and producer from Monterrey, Mexico. The project was launched in 2009 and blends Cumbia with Reggae, 90s Boom-Bap Rap and influences from Mexican sonidero culture and Jamaican sound systems. In September 2026, his third studio album "Mexican Dope" was released on the German label Tropical Bass. The album was co-produced with Andrés Digital, a pioneer of Electro-Cumbia in Europe. It comes on a lovely blue vinyl and, thanks to its groovy beats, is sure to find its way into one of my upcoming DJ sets. Hot stuff! 🔥

Record of the week: Cerrone - Cerrone IV (The Gold Record of the week: Cerrone - Cerrone IV (The Golden Touch)

This time, let’s take a look at the fourth studio album by the French musician, composer and producer of Disco music, and founder of the independent label Malligator Records.

"The Golden Touch" was another US disco chart-topper at the height of the Disco era. The cover is less controversial than that of some of his other releases, but then again, it’s all about the music… 🪩

France Joli This album cover really is a mystery France Joli

This album cover really is a mystery to me. Is the person on the front actually the same as the one on the back? Was the Canadian singer France Joli really only 16 years old when this album was released (and, of course, when the cover photos were taken)? And why does the back cover remind me of a young Britney Spears? So many questions.

What remains is a Disco classic on the Prelude label – well-known for this genre – featuring the hit single "Come to Me".

Record of the week: Poussez! - Poussez! (Poo-Say) Record of the week: Poussez! - Poussez! (Poo-Say)

Most people know Alphonse Mouzon as a renowned Jazz-Fusion drummer, composer and producer, a founding member of Weather Report and a musical collaborator with many greats such as Herbie Hancock, Albert Mangelsdorff and Jaco Pastorius.

But, like many others, he too tried his hand at Disco music in the late 1970s. And with great success! His project was called Poussez! and he acted as producer, arranger, composer and multi-instrumentalist. The debut album became a huge hit in the discos of the late 1970s and is now regarded as a much-loved classic of the genre: rhythmic, opulent, wild and lascivious. That’s how disco should be!

Record of the week: Morin Khuur Ensemble of Mongol Record of the week: Morin Khuur Ensemble of Mongolia - Mongol Melody 

Some very good friends from Mongolia brought me this special record!

The Morin Khuur Ensemble of Mongolia is the most famous orchestra specialising in the traditional Mongolian horse-head fiddle (Morin Khuur); it was founded in 1992 to preserve the national musical heritage and showcase it to the world. This double album was released in 2023 by Retro Records Mongolia on beautiful yellow and blue vinyl. The ensemble plays Mongolian folk songs and classical pieces – a thrilling and fascinating listening experience that reminds me of the time I spent in Mongolia with my beloved @frausey.❤️

The horse-head fiddle is the ensemble’s signature instrument; it has been listed as part of UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2003. Many thanks for this wonderful gift!

Record of the week: Jessica Williams - Queen of Fo Record of the week: Jessica Williams - Queen of Fools 

I was never particularly interested in Disco and Hi-NRG in the past. Sure, "High Energy" by Evelyn Thomas is a classic that’s a must at any 80s party, and "You make me feel (mighty real)" by Sylvester is an absolute banger. But if you dig a bit deeper, you can find plenty of tracks from these genres that feature lovely songwriting and sound timeless. Jessica Williams’ album was released in 1979 and sounds like 70s disco, but also has a distinctly 80s feel to it. And the title track is really brilliant. There’s very little information about the artist online, but it seems she’s still making music today and even released a new album last year.

The covers of Disco records from the 70s are indee The covers of Disco records from the 70s are indeed often questionable, or at least sexually suggestive, if I may put it that way.

The 1977 album by the THP Orchestra, a Canadian Disco band, is no exception. However, the 15-minute title track and the B-side both deliver some seriously funky Disco beats. Cool stuff!

Record of the week: Stargard - Changing of the Gar Record of the week: Stargard - Changing of the Gard 

"Changing of the Gard" is Stargard’s third studio album, released in 1979. The album was produced by Verdine White from the band Earth, Wind & Fire and Robert Wright. "Wear it out" was released as a single and reached number 4 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart (and will certainly be making its way onto my DJ playlist soon when it’s time for some 70s Disco action again).
