Snack & C'mish - Majika Boogie [12 Inch Extended]

Year : 2008

Label : Supra Records

I came across this 12, few years ago, while looking for GeeGee & Gym Band - Majic-Kaboola. I gave a chance to the B Side, and received a huge smash in my face! I don't know a lot about these guys from New York, it's a shame, I confess, If you have something about Snack & C'mish let me know. A killer dancefloor tune for sure, Enjoy!

Jacques Renault - Favicon (Ep)


Year : 2009

Label : Hole In The Sky

A1 Norman's Fire
A2 Can't Nobody Love Me
B1 Look At You
B2 Pianos On The Beach

Found a copy of this twelve today, and happily surprised. I've been following Jacques Renault for a while now, and always found his edits very cool. The only criticism I can do about all this edit stuff is that they never give the name of the original stuff. But don't worry, here there are :

A1 : Junior Giscombe - Get up and Dance
A2 : General Johnson - Can't Nobody Love Me Like You Do
B1 George Mccrae - Look At You
B2 A cover of the House of the rising sun, jazzy way, don't know the artist.

Hope you'll have fun listening to this Ep, Enjoy!
