New releases last two weeks: All genres

Review: French funk enthusiasts Act of Sedition return with another killer double 7", this time titled Femmes Fatale and as well as a plain back version, it also lands on translucent orange vinyl. Following a series of sought-after edits, this latest drop delivers four deep-digging disco reworks by a cast of shadowy edit masters. Betty Crutcher's 'Sleepy People (Old Chap Alteration)' opens with moody strings and dusty funk grooves, while Gwen McCrae's 'Move Me Baby (SanFran Disko Transformation)' kicks things up with uplifting soul-disco energy. Fingerman turns The Sisters Love's 'Give Me Your Love' into a load up and widescreen sound that is brilliantly symphonic and Clydie King's 'Punish Me (Bully Boy Makeover)' closes with raw horns and aching vocals.
