Strutmode Recordings is back with a hot 4 track dance E.P by Brian SNR.

Funking It Up (SNR’s Underground Rework)

This is a magic carpet ride into a far of galaxy of deep underground mystical dance, with Brian SNR’s signature style vocal and lingo that rides the wind…pumping beats accompanied by airy and windy atmospheres, slick Wah wahs, beautiful saxophone, deep chords, and a chugging live bass line that dictates the theme; it’s a underground indie dance masterpiece, not to be missed!

Funking II Up

The original version is a no nonsense ass shaking, gun slinging, whiskey drinking, street wise disco funker with sexy sleazy vocals on top that sets the theme. Solid beats and snares take the centre stage, big band stabs entice the mood…the bassline is in harmony with the Wah wah guitars…this lively track flaunts itself with pure hip shaking intentions. Whether you’re into Disco, nu Disco/Funk or all the above, this classic funk groover is for you!

My Dark Music (SNR’s Midnight Remix)

Everything you would desire if you’re into the fattest indie dance sound that blends Brian SNR’s punk funk style vocals. The alternative guitar rhythms of the eighties and nineties, dark haunting chords and dramatic brass sweeps excite you; there is a lovely electro bass vibe going on that’s dominating the musical gem all the way. It’s a much welcomed “Rework” of a much earlier production, that has been given the cut and polish a new diamond deserves. Not to be missed.

That’s What I Wanna Do

From the get go you are hypnotized by the loopy pads and the clean house beats, which lays the foundation to this soulful deep house love affair. Sexy splashes of female vocal echo’s on top of bass guitars, it’s an authentic deep house groove with a beautiful atmospheric vibe, with a cozy chord progression to sooth you into a deep, soft boogie wonderland.

Peki Momés took hearts and ears by storm with her first 45 (Göç Mevsimi b/w Rüya) last autumn. Her dope outernational grooves and fresh singing style made it as far as Iggy Pop's show on BBC. Time for another double-sided single! Yildiz is a Turkish cover of the beloved Marcos Valle tune Estrelar. Staying true to the spirit of the original, this version draws its energy from the bright stars, dreaming of meeting the stars up in the sky alongside the sun and moon. The production has been meticulously crafted, blending key elements of the original instrumentation with Peki Momés' distinct vocals in Turkish language.
Bahar is a psychedelic disco groove about longing for sunny days — both literally and metaphorically. It captures the exhaustion of waiting for brighter days in our homelands, our world, and our inner selves. As Peki Momés puts it, the wait for spring can be so long, it even wears down our pullovers. This track mirrors the duality of our reality and invites the audience to dance during this wait.
