Sleazy McQueen - Reconnect EP

Don't seem to have had as much nu-disco on here lately, but here's good ol' Sleazy McQueen keeping the flame alive…

Rollin' Me By is meandering, languid groove based around a lo-slung bassline, while Under My Spell is an even slower affair with elements of both cosmic disco and late 70s/early 80s NYC punk-funk and would surely make the perfect mixtape coda.

But the standout for me here is We Need To Reconnect, that kicks off with a sleazy (if you'll pardon the pun) electrofunk bass n' handclaps intro before some joyously old-school house pianos join the party. This one could have come out on Easy Street circa 1983/4, no problem at all… if your vinyl collection includes any of those classic Garage Trax or Garage Sound of Deepest New York comps then you need this in your life, believe!

Out: This week

About: This comes atcha on the mighty Paper Recordings, and you can HEAR all the tracks on their Soundcloud page
