Magoo ‎– Let’s Have A Boogie (2019)

Posted by ThaIgk

It’s been 9 long years since Magoo, the French singer, songwriter, keyboard player & producer, released his previous album. Now, he’s finally back with the new solo album titled “Let’s Have A Boogie” released by the famous French label Funkysize.

As per Magoo, with whom we managed to speak during this busy period of his career, he worked on this album during last 3 years, slowly little by little as he’s been also working for other artists as well. There are 4 other contributor to this album: Tony Massera (drum machines programmer on many songs), Fabrice Baffet (Guitars), Christophe Tellez (Saxophones), and Heryo (his French Kiss collaborator) who sings “Let’s Have A Boogie” together with Magoo (while the latter wrote the lyrics and the melody of this song). All the rest album was done by Magoo himself (Lead vocals, backgrounds vocals, all keyboards, programmings & mix).

Needless to say that this great piece of work is a real treat for all funk/boogie/disco connoisseurs to really know what’s up in the genre.

Go to Funkysize Website to order your 💿 hardcopy but don’t take your time since it’s limited edition of 500 copies. Vinyl edition will be available soon!

Star Child LP (Reissue) & Delicious 7″ by Dogg Master

Posted by ThaIgk

After dropping O.C. Girl 7″ just recently and which was sold out real fast, Dogg Master is not letting us to relax for a minute and is back with 2 records almost at a time: Star Child vinyl Reissue & next 7″ single “Delicious” off his upcoming album both released on his More Bounce Records.

“Star Child” is the reissue of his very successful album that he released in 2013. While the first press had a discobag cover, this new press is better quality sleeve with a 3mm border. And if you order on Dogg Master Bandcamp, then he additionally offer the CD album (Original 2103 press) and the digital download as cool bonuses. And on this reissue B4 track “Supa Dupa Guy” was replaced with “Love The Way You Dance” so all the above mentioned differences and dope bonuses justify the purchase very well even if you have the original 2013 vinyl press in your collection! Release date is June 15th but the vinyls are in stock and ready to ship against orders…

“Delicious” is 2nd single off Dogg Master’s upcoming album to be released some time during this autumn so you have another track (along with its instrumental) to taste and get ready yourself more for his next album. This time it’s a blue vinyl also placed in a transparent PVC sleeve with a sticker on it. Once again (as it was the case with O.C.Girl 7″), it’s Limited edition of 300 copies so these won’t last long but would be sold out pretty fast, so hurry up and go to Dogg Master Official Bandcamp for your copy. Pre-orders have been opened by now and these 7″ records are expected in stock some time end June or early July.

Posted by ThaIgk

After dropping their first 2 releases last year, Neon Finger, the up and coming label from Madrid (Spain), is hitting it hard by releasing their next two references and both by the already well-known Indonesia’s own Midnight Runners. It’s definitely the great news for all the disco/boogie/synth-funk lovers to have two Midnight Runner’s releases at a time, both made on vinyl: 1. Rare Essense – the LP in a very beautiful sleeve printed in offset; 2. Disco Panorama – 7″ double sider, which serves a very nice addition to the LP.

Those who already know Midnight Runners know that their name speaks of itself and they can’t really go wrong. Both records consist of great tunes professionally crafted by them and would be definitely appreciated by their fans and supporters.
