Permanent Vacation - Zuckerhut (John Talabot Remix)
Munich-based label Permanent Vacation has been churning out quality release after release for a while now and much to my surprise, label owners Tom Bioly and Benjamin Frohlich hadn’t actually released anything themselves until last year. Sharing a name with the label, their first 12” 'Tic Toc' was a straight up disco delight featuring label mainstay Kathy Diamond. On the reverse, 'Zuckerhut' was a high tempo Balearic stomper designed for the late night sweaty dance floor. With the label clocking up over 50 releases, it now feels like the time for a reworking of 'Zuckerhut' as a little commemoration. On the flipside of the release, Barcelona mystery man and label mate John Talabot puts his customary shine to polish up the track into a synth heavy house rework. Talabot may try his best to keep a low profile, but after this special remix he may well struggle.
Enjoy.

Ananda Project feat. Marta Gazman – Beautiful Searching (Rasmus Faber Remix)
Some gorgeous house to be found here as Sweden’s Rasmus Faber delivers his remix of Ananda Project’s ‘Beautiful Searching’. There’s an abundance of soul that oozes from every syllable of Gazman’s vocals, set delicately over a soundscape that dips toes into a warm sea of psychedelia. A brilliant headphone track, turn it up and drift away.

Grum - Through The Night (Bitfunk Remix)
Bit Funk is turning out some great remixes at the moment and after this release, some may say there's competition against his originals. Much of the same sentiment can be applied to this remix of Grum's 'Through the Night'. He's twisted and tweaked the bassline and beat giving it a drive and club-friendly lift that the original lacks, with quoted reference too, 'Drive straight through the night/We can make it home before daylight'. The remix retains the uplifting 80's pop-synth while a distorted vocal-chord pulsates in the background - it's an actual pleasure to listen to Bit Funk's best tune to date.
Enjoy!

Treasure Fingers EP - Lift Me & It's Love
Defected deliver more delectable and forward-thinking treats, this time from legend Treasure Fingers. Mr Fingers has gone wild with the vocal chops, which he is well-known for, and brings together tracks that can't be faulted - floating bass lines and gorgeous synth find a way of enforcing their melody into the subconscious. 'Lift Me' purveys that chopped vocal, which doesn't aim to convey any particular message through audible words, but manages to be ridiculously infectious. As the vocal trails, a disco synth hook enters, the kind of thing that files synergistic smiles and foot tapping as a means of celebration. The second track 'It's Love' supplies us with more choppy vocals over a stupidly gorgeous house beat that reflects sounds of old skool. The old skool revival is clearly in place and I'm sure Defected will be there at the forefront, flying their D-branded flag!
Both tracks urge a smile, and that is precious. The video is Defected's promo with a highlight of both tunes.
Do Enjoy :)
