HOT BISCUIT

Rahaan

Get Up / Zombies / How

Three more primo edits from Chicago disco royalty Rahaan's studio archive, eagerly signed and snapped up by the Hot Biscuit PLC. Kicking off with an unheard power-boogie jam; with a bassline and male vox that'll have you bursting outta your shirt. Followed by a magic carpet disco jaunt, complete with chunnering cuica drum, shamanic flute and funky disco chants. Again - source material unknown!

To conclude, Rahaan edits a slick late 70s sounding jazz-funk number to devastating effect, reminding us just why he is king of the cut, the master tape manipulator of the modern age.

Limited copies!  

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Another week, another Hot Biscuit from Rahaan. No messin' on this one, just three functional disco / jazz-funk numbers for warming up the floor nicely.

Pete Blaker

Don’t Stop / Ice Cold

In demand Pete Blaker delivers two amazing edits / re-works on Hot Biscuit Recordings. Strictly vinyl, limited copies. 

On one side a magic carpet ride into the familiar disco decadence of "Don't Stop". Enveloped with sumptuous pads and fluttering percussion constantly rising strings; it's a beautifully hypnotic and heady affair, perfect for late in the dance when the room's billowing with dry ice and red hues. 

"Ice Cold" treads a tentative course into dreamy Balearic / 80s synth-pop. Magical and full of intrigue, it has the same playful desires as Bagarre or Saada Bonaire with a collection of synth licks destined to dazzle. 

Another unmissable double header of edits from the DJ Harvey arms supplier.

Toddsonic33 seems like an interesting character. Relatively new on the block in terms of productions but seems like he's in with a wealth of old school Chicago and UK talent. He first appeared on a record with Steve Poindextor (on Jamal Moss' Mathematics label), his instagram shows him hanging with heads like Boo Williams and The Mighty Zaf, and he seems steeped in the traditions of embryonic house music - born right in his home town.

This record for Hot Biscuit is as much inline with Howard Thomas and Mark Grusane as it is with Ron Hardy and Marcus Mixx. It recycles some of the most familiar tropes of the genre, as well as using one of its biggest vocals (on "Deesko Music"). There's a little bit of the drums of Jackmaster Hater's "Your Mind" (feat. Robert Owens). It also revels in chaos and discord, as did the original Chi-town innovators.

A highly intriguing and delicious addition to the Hot Biscuit tin of delights... Check! 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Out of the recent slew of Hot Biscuits, this one is probably the most tracky and Muzic Box-esque - which you won't find any argument from me! Channel the spirit of big Ron with Toddsonic's outlandish approach.
