Turn Off The Lights

Two Three tunes here for you from Basement Soul Music: A Detonation By The Unabombers.
I usually don't post more than two tunes from a compilation but I just reckon that as about 60-70% of my visitors will not have heard of the crew that delivers this one I want to get more than usual out from it.
Um, Um! From the rockin' compilation brought to you by the superb crew at Electric Chair in Manchester. Here is the deal with the Manchester sound that I have eluded to before when mentioning Aim, Grand Central, etc. The term that can be used is Northern Sulphuric Soul, and really that  is....."music with feeling, encompassing diva disco, future spaced freaky hip hop/ r'n'b, afro, Detroit techno, mashups, house with a feeling, decadent 2-step, bad breaks and dancehall shenanigns."
So many of the crews from Manchester are consistently bringing a sound to us that just isn't really found elsewhere. Keep it up.

Artist: Leo Elstob
Tune: How High
Man, this tune to me brings back many great memories of listening to Digs and Woosh at the Sir Henry's Weekenders with that sweet style of house music that just gets you swaying all groovy like. This tune has got to go out to Fio'. :-)

Artist: Frank De Jo Jo Featuring Terri Pace
Tune: Turn Off The Lights
A too sexy tune with a low and slinky bassline that will have shivers running up and down your spine.
Combine that with lines like "Daddy, when you talk that talk, I feel like a lady. Yes, oh baby, let me walk that walk. Turn off the lights." and you are hooked.
This tune really defies definition....think future disco, with an old-school funk beat, slightly speeded up miami bass along with a tacky porn soundtrack and you might come close.

Now, to finish you off.

Artist: Donna Summer
Tune: I Feel Love (Patrick Cowley Mega Mix Edit)
Yes, most of us have heard the Donna Summer classic 'I Feel Love'. If you haven't, shame on you!
Well, how about this MegaMix from Patrick Cowley with his 11:20 version (I see that if you Google it there were 15:43 versions of it also.). And man does he take this track and blow it up with a pure, unadulterated sonic assault that is masterfully produced.

When in Manchester go to the Electric Chair club and you just won't be disappointed.

My longest post yet?

Cheers,

Thanks for sharing all this with us. I think you're one of the best in this category and it'd be nice if you can add something else about this same topic, it was an interesting point of view but you must know something else, isn't?
