CKSNL - Orlando (OOFT! Vocal Remix) FREE DL

Bit of a wobbly deep house banger here from OOFT! One of our favorite producers, and he's giving this one away for free.

Queen & Disco ¦ Podcast 002 - Pt's 1&2

For the second installment of our podcast series we have a double header of live sets taken from our recent night with Get Down Edits and Late Nite Tuff Guy. The two were kind enough to allow us to record live from The Gweedore and they didn't disappoint in the slightest.

PART 1 - Get Down Edits

The first part of the podcast comes from the same fella's who brought us our first ever podcast series, Get Down Edits. On warm up duties for the night the lads, as expected, delivered the goods.  We all agreed that the lads could have well headlined the event and we'll have 'em back up north soon enough no doubt.



PART 2 - Late Nite Tuff Guy

The 2nd part of the poddy comes from none other than Late Nite Tuff Guy. We were beaming from ear to ear when we first heard this recording back. As you'd expect from a man who's knowledge and experience is so vast, the set was perfectly crafted over the 90 odd minutes and rose to a bouncing crescendo which had everyone forgetting their dignity.

Make some time for this and give it a listen....

Q&D

Fat Larry's Band ¦ Act Just Like (Alan's Disco Re-Edit)

The Free DL this week comes in the form of Q&D's latest resident and all round maverick, Alan Mooney. Alan's been producing for over 2 years now but has finally found his feet as far as the direction of his musical production is headed. His re-edit of Fat Larry's Band shows the talent he has and also the eye for re-editing the right records without taking away from them, a key ingredient these days to having a successful re-editing career.

Catch Alan playing at one of the upcoming Q&D events, or in Dublin where he'll be playing at the Twisted Pepper alongside a few other head-the-balls from Derry.

3rd August 2013 - Michael Mcadams & Lloyd Grogan [Szoda Dublin/Culprit/Twin], Just Paul [White Widow/Funkoloko/Reverb], Alan Mooney [The Queen & Disco], Smak [Stripped Records], Philip Macleod [Demotiv] @ Ware Derry, Garden Party, Moran's Bar, Derry

Podcast 001 Get Down Edits

Prior to announcing our first series of events, we worked hard to ensure we got in the right acts.  The boys at Get Down Edits certainly fit the bill.  They have worked tirelessly in their native Waterford to spread their infectious sound and are now starting to fully reap the rewards.  Their summer roster is mouth watering and sees them play at gigs across the country, and indeed Europe, as well as an appearance at the much heralded SeaSessions.

So it was a massive honour when they agreed to put together an exclusive mix for Queen & Disco and help us kick off our Q&D Volumes with a bang.



They will of course be playing at our 2nd of August gig alongside Late Nite Tuff Guy, which already is shaping up to be a disco extravaganza.


We will be making it available to everyone to download over the weekend so keep an eye.

Free Downloads ¦ The Golden Boy

Dominic Hammonds is a producer from Birmingham who, after making music from a young age, has finally started to break through with a series of 2013 releases that have caught the attention of those in the UK house and bass scenes.

After really focusing on The Golden Boy project over the last year, his sounds first made it onto a host of mixes and sets of DJs, until people started taking note of the man behind the music and his popularity burgeoned.

Now having secured an EP release with the Ministry of Sound, the boy has made his name onto listings throughout the UK for the summer as labels and club nights clamber to have him tied to their names. His new EP, Higher, epitomises the effort Hammonds has put into The Golden Boy, showcasing the biggest basslines and filthiest chords in a three track set that has already been causing a hype.

3 Free DL's available below

Tambi ¦ You Don't Know (HMD Remix)

Don Downing ¦ Doctor Boogie (Ramsey Hercules & Fingerman Edit)

I was almost sure this was posted before but it apparently hasn't been after a quick search. An absolute PEACH of a tune re-edited brilliantly by Fingermanedit.

Cassius/Outkast - Feeling for Rosa (Flight Facilities Mash-up)

I don't really like these silly, cheesey mash-ups, normally. This track was taken from the recent Flight Facilities 1992-2002 mix which features songs and in this case mash-ups from that period. Again, i usually don't like these types of mixes and that but this one was different to most.

Syl Johnson ¦ Don't Do It (Scratch & Sniff Re-Edit)

Funked up Re-edit of Syl Johnson by Scratch & Sniff.

Daft Punk ¦ Get Lucky ft Pharell Williams + 2 Edits

This is an edit of Daft Punk's upcoming single, not the original. However it is still cool to get a sneak preview of what's to come. The new album will be released on May 21st, and you just get the feeling it's going to be slightly special going on these collaboration videos and the hype surrounding it especially considering the current state of electronic music. They've been working on the album with an array of the worlds best talent, Nile Rogers, Pharell, and Julien Casablancas to name a few. See the collaborators clip with Pharell here:
