ltd 7 inch release

kampana presents 4 doses of afro disco and house, from captain planet, including his heavily in demand rework of shina williams agboju logun officially licensed for this release. the la producer is at the top of his game across the ep, serving up a timeless blend of retro vocals, horns and percussion, with subtle but highly effective club-centred production. this record will not leave your box!

kampana delivers once again with a pair of dance floor gems that will please lovers of funk, disco and gospel alike. on the a-side, aroop roy means serious business with reason to dance. driven by an outrageous slap bass, infectious horn stabs and a limb-shaking vocal refrain, its no surprise that this has been the secret weapon of his recent sets around the world. on the flip, detroit native peter croce, fresh from the huge success of his razor-n-tape ep, comes in equally strong, with the gospel-fuelled disco cut just like heaven. the track builds patiently, lingering on a raw disco groove, honing in on a powerful brass section and spirit-lifting vocals, and eventually climaxing with epic strings and thunderous piano.

kampana s debut release was a global hit across the house, disco and tropical scene, with support from heavyweights such as francois k, soul clap and gilles peterson. the label is back just in time for summer with three more doses of peak time fire from aroop roy, who has gained a fine reputation for the quality and widespread appeal of his releases. you say is a funk-fuelled number with gritty retro vocals and guitar, driven by a warm disco groove and 80s arp-synth. the feel-good vibes gradually build into an anthemic floor-filling climax. taj mahal reworks a brazilian classic into a full on house workout, reminiscent of roys popular series on gamm. mapora is an original number that will blend well into both deep house and afro-centric sets. the track builds nicely with filtered samples and syncopated vocals, coming in with an infectious highlife guitar line and late night synth stabs, to get mind and body moving.

theres already a huge buzz about this release, with the likes of gilles peterson, simbad and lay-far showing their love for these dance floor killers from aroop roy, whose recent work on gamm and basic fingers has been a runaway success in both mainstream and underground scenes.
