Born out of the ashes of Darkwood Dub, one of the Balkans’ most revered alternative rock bands during the ‘90s/’00s, Bella Technika is the latest project of Bojan Drobac, the group’s guitarist and main songwriter. Joined by former bandmate bass player Milorad Ristic as well as opera singer Katarina Jovanovic, amongst others, Bojan has found a new direction with Bella Technika.
Bella Technika join forces with Super Weird Substance for Substance Select Vol.2, which features three remixes and an original production from the band’s debut ‘Section’ LP, released last year.
Continuing their prolific form, Greg Wilson and Ché Wilson provide the first remix, taking album opener ‘Reinvented Daily’ into psychedelic territory with vocoder and dub fx.
Lee Perry AKA Peza provides the second mix, a jacking, acid fuelled reimagining of ‘I Feel Light’ - alongside Sara Lucas’ primal vocal it evokes the halcyon days of house music.
Up next, Henry Greenwood provides a wonky, idiosyncratic version of ‘Heat Control’, with Katarina, Bojan and Milorad’s repetitive vocals floating over a steady chugging groove.
The EP finishes up with the original fully titled ‘Suddenly I Feel So Light’, exhibiting the live band / electronic fusion that established their reputation across Europe.

Reigniting the long-standing creative partnership between Greg Wilson and Kermit Leveridge, Super Weird Substance was formed in 2014 on the back of their inspired collaboration on the 'Blind Arcade Meets Super Weird Substance In The Morphogenetic Field' mixtape.
A1) Written by Greg WIlson, 'Summer Came My Way' saw him collaborate with vocal force of nature, The Reynolds; twin sisters from the Wirral with a highly astute singing style and uncanny synergy. Having come into Greg's orbit with a series of luscious, dubby edits, Luxxury was approached to do a mix of the track for SWS' first vinyl release and it's since taken on a life of its own. Unavailable on vinyl for a couple of years, a reissue felt well overdue.
A2) A project of countercultural connector David Bramwell, Oddfellow's Casino is an outlet for his song writing, which draws from psychegeography, mysticism and leftfield folklore. David Bramwell contacted Greg about a remix of the track and Greg obliged with an ethereal, vocoder driven take that he worked on alongside studio partner, Peza. Following support from DJ Harvey, the track hasn't seen an official release until now.
AA1) A visceral disco funk jam that immediately grabs you by the groove, The Super Weird Society's 'Gone With The Vibe' built its momentum on the road in 2017 with Greg regularly featuring it at clubs and in festivals. The Super Weird Society include; Kermit Leveridge, The Reverend Cleve Freckleton and The Reynolds - an amalgamation of the label's key vocalists. Co-writer Henry Greenwood extends the mix.
AA2) The diversity of sound and nuanced vocal ability of The Reynolds has been instrumental to the label's sound since its formation, just as adept in the fore, as they are backing other vocalists. Mixed by Greg Wilson and Peza, 'The Best Is Yet To Come' is another Harvey pick, and has garnered support from legendary DJ Colin Curtis, who championed the Besse Banks original, has provided a number of spine tingling moments in clubs and festivals since its release.

The one and only Mr K sure does know how to cook up a masterful edit. Here he heads into gospel territory with the latest 7" in Most Excellent Unlimited's collaborations with him. Both of these tunes are appearing on 7" vinyl for the first time here and have long been staples of the sets of Danny Krivit. His 'Churchapella' edit of Madonna's 'Like A Prayer' is as holy and steamy as it gets with the whole thing sure to uplift and energise any crowd. On the backside is a superb edit of the Clark Sisters slinky rare groove gem 'Ha-Ya (Eternal Life).' It's a slightly slower tune but one that makes just as much of an impact. More

The Saint Wax Edit Service is back with another fine helping of disco goodness to keep those dance floors nourished this summer and beyond. 'Candela' opens up with a lung-busting and intoxicating vocal over organic drums while 'Chevere Africa' has a warm Afro feel to its upbeat and celebratory disco beats complete with big horns. 'Ledile' gets even more party starting with its jazzy lines and funky bass work and then things slow down on 'Mameye,' a more steamy and languid affair but still one with plenty of big horn charm. Useful tackle, this. More
