Whiskey Disco #74 follows up Michael The Lion’s stellar single with a return to classic Whiskey Disco form; a mix of somewhat recognizable samples tweaked for the floor or the poolside.

Summer is in full swing and so are the artists on the latest Whiskey Disco ode to summer parties. The A side showcases a long lost gem from Cole Medina that never quite saw the light of day. It’s a longtime honour to be able to put this song on the label and we can’t wait to have a loud 45 side in our hands to drop at the choicest of rooftop parties, poolside, beachside, or to break the tension after a dirty underground session. On the flip, we see Love Athletics breaking out with All of My Love, a cheeky vocal sample underpinned by a rocking bass groove and high hats that are more than a nod to Sex Shooter. The flanged groove will be perfect for day or night tie parties. Closing out, label boss, Sleazy McQueen provides an all analog cut up with palpitating drums and hypnotic grooves, with a nice surprise to break things up a bit.

Coming Back Strong marks the milestone 75th vinyl release on Whiskey Disco and the first solo EP from label head Sleazy McQueen since 2020. The A-side seamlessly blends deep house and disco, featuring the rhythmic mastery and evolving builds of Terry Grant, a long-standing Bedrock contributor who has recently been showcasing his skills alongside Luke Solomon’s various projects. On the B-side, High On A Mountain delivers an energetic and percussive disco workout, with subtle tribal undertones. Closing out the EP, Coming Strong is a groovy, disco-infused house track that wraps up this release on a high note.

Michael The Lion and Natasha Kitty Katt began collaborating as Natasha found a second home in Philadelphia. The two have a mutual love of classic disco and found a kindred spirit in Suki Soul, who has been tearing up the scene the last few years in Northern England. I Found Peace features Michael on guitar and Natahsha on drum machines and synths alongside Michael’s long-time studio band mates. Classical composer and legendary Pittsburgh hip hop producer Jules Krishnamurti adds bass guitar and University of Pennsylvnia jazz ensemble leader Dan Paul plays keyboards on this incredible modern disco classic. Pontchartrain brings all the right touches to the club mix, along side some heavy house mixes by Tonarunur (aka B.G. Baarregaard) to round out the first Whiskey Disco release in several years.

Thoma Cher comes correct on his first solo outing on Whiskey Disco.
Holiday Holiday is end-to-end pure party material. Just like Thoma’s previous label material, this 3-track ep is no exception. Punchy kicks, cutting guitar licks and vocals from the peak hour Holiday Holiday to Dancer and Be My Love for those more intimate moments.

A1 - The Silver Rider – Roundhouse
A2 - The Silver Rider - You’re The One
B1 - Bustin Loose – These Ol’ Days
B2 - Bustin Loose – Home Way Phase

Texan, The Silver Rider takes time away from farm-life to drop two heart-tender disco missives, while splitting the slab with Londoner, Bustin' Loose, who makes his Whiskey Disco debut.

Kicking things off on the a-side is The Silver Rider with 'Roundhouse,' a reworking of a stone-cold classic that injects club ready beats and high energy vibes into some very recognizable sample sources. Next up, TSR keeps the energy, but adds a sunkissed breeze to the mix with 'You're The One,' a super smooth and groovy number perfect for top-down cruising or pool side jamming.

Flip it over for a powerful pair of cuts from Bustin' Loose... the founder of London's, The Disco Express party series and a burgeoning producer with previous releases on Toy Tonics and Roux Records. 'These Ol' Days' gets us started with proper warm up tackle as a silky, filtered loop evolves and opens atop funky guitar loops and sultry vocals. Move the needle to the inside cut and we take the energy up a notch with 'Home Way Phase,' who's galloping percussion creates an urgency for shimmering strings and horn stabs to perfectly punctuate... PROPER!

A1 - Shark Infested
B1 - Brandy Beach
B2 – Starcrossed

Whiskey Disco returns with another brilliant EP by Australian producer Kayroy, known for creating new intersections between edits, reworks, and originals that the label is known for.

A driving, tension-heavy original A-side reminiscent of early Sound Stream, complimented by two wonderfully selected reworks - a smartly tightened up beautiful instrumental gem originally by Japanese guitarist & composer, Shigeru Suzuki, and an almost necessary revision of euro-disco genius Alec Costandinos’s opus "Romeo & Juliet".

A wide ranging and fantastic record all around.

Like a phoenix, Montreal’s disco godfather, Robert Ouimet is back with the same vim and vigor as when was tapped by Gino Soccio for album consulting or when he remixed Francine McGee’s delirium in 1977. But, here he presents 4 songs from his deep archive, edited to ‘hands-up’ glory for today’s audience.

The mysterious Kayroy returns to Whiskey Disco for his second EP of 2019. Fans of his first EP will find more of the same, a raw, pastiche of samples glued together into a package of hands-up disco fire.
'Rosella' rolls along with a natural tendency to groove underpinned by trippy effects and classic piano and vocal riffs. 'You’re the Reason Why', lowers the tempo and amps up the vibes.
The B-Side is a sped-up departure from previous Kayroy fare, but sounds just as natural. 'Silk & Satin' seems like the type of track one might hear in nearly any Harvey set, while 'One Night in Prague' raised the tempo and will have your pulse racing with its relentless bass.

Lovedancing Alumnus, Will Buck, makes the leap to daddy-label, Whiskey Disco on this, his first solo ep.
A side tracks are both heavy hitters with nostalgic samples while the b side is rife with left of centre, lesser known grooves, capped off by label head, Sleazy McQueen’s remix of the title track.

Texan / Mexican neighbours, the Silver Rider and the Funk District hold hands in disco diplomacy that will break down any wall. What a time to be alive: 20 years ago, these would have been buried on the b-side, but in 2019 they rock down the house of the largest of clubs.

The mysterious Kayroy appears on his second Whiskey Disco record bringing the heat by way of sampladelic dancefloor collages packed with funk and a slight left-of-center aesthetic. 'Like Damn!' and the titular, 'Pavlova Casanova', are both hands-up, disco gaiety that will rip the heart of your chest.
'Sandy Shackles' closes out the EP conjuring the disco dub vibes of editors like Idjut Boys or Ray Mang. Just who is Kayroy – and who was he on his first Whiskey Disco appearance?

Midnight City head honcho, Vincenco De Bull comes correct for his second outing and first EP on Whiskey Disco.
4 Kicks ep is to the brim with 4 late-90s vibe, feel good disco treats a la Studio 45 meets Knee Deep. On the A side 'Champ 1' let's loose with those summery feel good guitar riffs and soulful vocals before 'In Love' transports you to Tokyo for a dreamy synth laden, love song boogie.
Flip it and you're hit with an uptempo groover, fizzing with an unbridled energy, squelchy synths and feisty licks under the name 'Goodbye Ketan'. Closing the e.p. out 'That Same Old Feeling' is an endlessly building, looped up pot of disco grooves and stirring vocals.
A quadruple shot of Whiskey Disco, ready to set you right for the weekend.

The Patchouli Brothers deliver four raw tunes, looped for optimum dancefloor ecstasy. On the A side ‘He Wonders’ is a squelching synthy, guitar laden gem, extended and reworked for full cosmic galacticness. ‘A Mighty Joy’ follows up with a slice of gospel disco gold, expertly tweaked to enrich your soul with spiritual goodness.
On the B side ‘Can’t Stop Christy’ is laced with a good helping of slap bass and trumpet flurries alongside the elusive Christy trading licks with that hazy distorted guitar. Closing out the e.p. ‘Take You There’ channels the glory days of disco into a six-and-half-minute reglammed opus.
