Really looking forward to our xmas party, what a way to wrap up the year before everyone goes home to their mammys and daddys.
Check out Simon Cullen’s Ships here, they’re only deadly.
Soon to be so hot, Kool Thing have established themselves as ones to watch, getting kudos all over the shop from musos in the know.
And of course the incomparable Horse Meat Disco
Well folks, the first release on our sexy new label Fatty Fatty Phonographics is now available all over the world on sexy black 12″ vinyl, just the way the Good Lord intended.
Featuring three tracks of chunky funky 70′s soulfulness reworked for the modern floor, it’s picked up plaudits from the likes of Sleazy Beats Recordings, Dom Servini of Wah Wah 45′s, and Situation Edits ( Disco Deviance), as well as attention from local disco heroes like Billy Scurry, Get Down Edits, Keep Schtum, Check The Guns and Padraic Disconaut.
It’s available at some of our favourite record stores in the world, such as Manchester’s Piccadilly Records, Dutch behemoths Clone.nl, and Juno.co.uk. It’s also available in loads of other shops stretching out as far as Japan at jetsetrecords.net
You can have a quick listen to the tracks here:

To celebrate the release we had two parties last weekend – one with our disco brothers at Belfast Music Club, and a Dublin launch with Manchester’s demon deck wreckers The Unabombers.
The Una’s weaved together a set that summoned up the spirit of 2am at their legendary night Electric Chair in Manchester – plenty of modern sci-fi disco and deep, jackin’ tackle, interspersed with some vintage electro-disco and boogie manoeuvres to keep ‘em juiced.
We simply couldn’t think of a better way to mark our first release than with these boys on the decks, and you can listen to the whole thing right here….
The fifth mix we did this year but we’re putting it out now because it’s so damn hot it cannot be denied! Enjoy.
We are delighted to announce that the very first release on our Fatty Fatty Phonographics label is imminent.
Constructed with love and no small measure of JUST PLAY THE FUCKIN’ NOTE! by Pablo and Shoey, it’s entitled The Rejigs Volume 1
It will feature re-works off tracks by The Emotions, Glady Knight and The Pips and Bernard Purdie on lovely fat 12 inch black vinyl, and will also be available as a download for you modern types.
Pablo is of course a stalwart of the Fatty Fatty crew, while Shoey is the resident production whizz from External Sounds, a Drogheda based collective with the same spirit and soul.
You can listen to samples of the sweet tracks here

Something a little bit funkier, twisted and 21st Century here for you today, as Dom Servini of the fiercely independent London label Wah Wah 45′s mixes up some of his favourite sounds from his slots at the Electric Elephant festival in Croatia this past July. There is already a slavering eulogy to the festival a few posts below so we won’t repeat ourselves. We will tell you that Wah Wah has had a place in our hearts and our record bags ever since it’s early days re-issuing choice cuts such as this:
Dom can always be relied upon for all sorts of modern beat-trickery to keep an open minded dancefloor moving, thus we were delighted to see that we would be sharing the bill on a boat on the Adriatic. He truly rocked it out that day with a set of sizzling jazz-house, floorburning disco edits, and funky what-nots that had us leaning over the decks and having a sneaky peek every ten minutes or so. We won’t even mention his excursions into drum n bass and bad-ass soulful boogie during his Beach Bar and Main Stage slots…..There might even be a part 2 to come!!
You can find out all about the world of Wah Wah here and check out the mix below.
