Swiss 33 disco pioneers, Low Motion Disco, are pushing things forward and have released a double 12″ of new single ‘Love Love Love’ by way of Eskimo (that’s 6 x Love, wow!). The actual original track is the sound of the Miami Vice cast touching down at LAX and having an impromptu disco in the arrivals lounge, getting all the sexy ladies to wildly girate and fling off their smart air stewardess uniforms while champagne froths from the overhead sprinklers. All this filmed in slow motion and transferred to black and white. Then Still Going build it up real slow, until suddenly by way of electric guitar solo your soaring through the molten stratosphere of an alien planet and the sound is boiling out from your ears. LSB coil out a strings and synths calypsoscopic theme tune to the resurrection of Studio 54 on a remote Caribbean cove. Soft Rocks show the track a good time in an underground NY sex bar.

Just to buck the 20JFG trend, we are going to share with you the excellent Aeroplane remix, because due to tastes and planetary alignments we dig it the most.

Low Motion Disco – Love Love Love (Aeroplane Remix)

Why? Well, for the pure reason that its hot and sultry like a coy Sorayama robogirl, coiling her titanium frame around the stars of Andromeda. Plus, with every hand-clap we edge ever closer to the confirmation of our theory that the meaning of life is actually just Disco.

Yet more proof of this undeniable fact comes from the stables of Permanent Vacation, with the release of 40 Thieves new 12″, the Hot Chocolate cover, ‘Don’t Turn It Off’ – which sounds like a live disco performance on a vast black perspex stage built on the Moon.

Its the b-side that we are hooked on, its throbbing and propulsive in all the correct and obliging places. The percussion searches the immediate cosmos for a bassline and eventually finds it off the shoulder of Orion, plays with it a little then gets caught like a rabbit in the headlights as the universe falls away to reveal a wall of subtle lasers that herald a pack of Shirow designed cyborg dolphins, wearing Casio branded SWAT team suits, that swim through space in exaggerated and compelling strokes through a bleeping landscape of red LED stars. see the dolphins:
