Jesus’ take on the Cosmic Scene

(Where we continue the space trip, with an spiritual twist)

If your astral body were to elevate into the sky and further, past cotton clouds, outside into the last confines of the atmosphere, and float there like Christ in that Dali painting, surrounded by metal teardrops and satellites of love with the blackness of space from which dad pulls the strings above you, to behold the beautiful Earth below with a gentle smile of bearded understanding, then you might see crackling and shimmering ley lines of spiritual energy joining a constellation of recording studios where the wizards of Kosmische cast spells of breath-taking beauty, and bless them, forgiving their paganistic obsession with night-clubbing and german prog. We have done it and we advise you to follow suit.

No, we don’t use LSD airlines, we just have highly developed imaginations and a well populated Sci-Fi library.

Now, welcome to space, here you have some more gems of changelling disco. Enjoy!

In the new Chinatown 12” you find two pieces of slow mo disco which, upon placement over the wheels of the steel, and activation of the hyperspace drive (tip: press ‘play’), shall summon will o’ the wisps of analogic love which burn like pink haloes over the speakers, Brennan Green’s Escape from Chinatown is a thrilling affair with a tip of the hat cheekily targeted at Master Carpenter, and participation from 20JFG fave Daniel Wang, while Green’s own version of Studio’s East Side takes slow introspection into new zones of spatial bliss, sounds are compressed using a DIY particle accelerator, atomic chains of melody interlock initiating a colossal synth reaction bound to leave the club full of neon-glowing skeletons dancing ecstatic in literal disco heaven.

Studio- East Side (Brennan Green Version)

The new rvng of the nrds release hot from the tasteful vaults of our soul brothers IGETRVNG (now we go way back with these guys) finds Lovefingers getting deep into the sound, his edits advance with glorious parsimony drawing a map between hidden beaches where each sunrise glimmers blinding like the birth of a new universe, you will know him from the trail of burned brains.

Zoysia is our choice cut, snippets of an intimate conversation between enamoured synth lines taking place in the classy dancefloor of a latin disco circa 1979, Hot on the Heels of Love no need to sweat it, you can be sure they are going to catch it, this is how they roll.

Get it HERE.

Lovefingers- Zoysia

And let us finish with an edit of Barry de Vorzon’s knuckle dusting classic Warriors Theme carried out by an expert in the field, The Beat Broker, who takes our rowdy bunch of bravos away from the rough streets of NYC into a new dimension populated by silvery spaced-out disco stations orbiting around alien worlds.

The muscles of the original remain nevertheless taut under a new surface of aerodynamic polymer alloy, in this version of Odyssey 2001 the belligerent monkeys have Baseball Furies make-up, the Discovery One is covered in cholo tags and HAL yells ‘CAN YOU DIG IT’, CAN YOU DIG IT?

Sure we do!! Let’s smoke a few Starship Troopers, mano.
