Piano Sunset
Cat: SC 7066. Rel: 12 Oct 23
 
Balearic/Downtempo
Piano Sunset (4:32)
Lost In Palms (4:55)
Review: The diffuse hues and retro-feeling colours of the artwork on this new 45rpm from Star Creature perfectly embody the downtempo and Balearic sounds within. They come from A Vision Of Panorama who seems to ever more have the dance floor in sights over his last few releases. That's not to say these are banging tunes - but they do have lovely grooves. 'Piano Sunset' is a real spine tingler with 80s keys and mid tempo drums that come alive with crisp hits and a fresh bassline. 'Lost In Palms' then has a shuffling and low slung groove with nice wet hits. Add in some more lush chords and you have a real pearler.

Purple (3:37)
Purple (dub mix) (4:12)
Review: Every once in a while, a release is slung our way that charms us so deeply that we're not sure what angle approach it from. Deliberately retro, but with one foot in the cosmic, Star Creature are a Chicago-based label whose take on space disco is extra janky and electronic. AVOP's new track 'Purple' is rattlesnaking and sultry, delving into a pitch-perfect rumination of a disco sound that 70's producers could only dream of achieving. Coming to purple 7" vinyl, the track makes "Russian violet cyber grapes rain in Chicago", as asserted by the artist.

Review: Following some great releases for the likes of his own imprint Mellophonia, Omena and Cala Tarida Musica, Mikhail Khvasko aka A Vision Of Panorama returns with a new one this week for Star Creature Universal Vibrations out of The Windy City - Chicago, Illinois. He serves up the late night boogie-down vibes of 'Purple' with its seductive vocal that's the perfect soundtrack for night drive down the coast on a balmy evening, plus there's a handy dub on the flip.

Pleasure Cruise (feat Falcone) (4:40)
Acid Dreaming (4:11)
Review: Deliciously care-free, sunny-sided and mildly cosmic: Brooklyn's Aimes delivers yet another pert pop package. "Pleasure Cruise" is a hooky, synth pop jam that will have you singing along before the end of the first play. Imagine Hot Chip on the fluffiest of jags or Sebastien Tellier on the poppiest of flexes and you're kinda close. The vocoder-heavy lolloper "Acid Dreaming", meanwhile, sits somewhere between Air and Jim Noir with its unabashed retro-future charm. The pleasure is ours.

Disco/Nu-Disco
Heart Attack (4:42)
Don't Stop (3:56)
Review: Brian Ellis and Tim Tucker's Birdbone project breathes its first ever breaths with two almighty wallops of synth-slapping boogie funk. "Heart Attack" tickles hard with pre-game mischief and some of the finest keytar solo wriggles you'll hear outside of Chromeo's studio. "Don't Stop" takes us just a touch closer to disco with Prelude-style refrains and a drop so dreamy you'll may need to pack a fresh pair of long-johns. Let's hope Birdbone is a permanent fixture in both artist's lives.

Ashes (5:32)
Milky Way (4:49)
Review: Giovanni Damico has done plenty of great house EPs in his time but on this one he explores a retro Italo and disco sounds with lashings of synth and wave influences. His EP for Star Crature opens with 'Ashes' which could well be a long forgotten classic getting a timely reissue. The machines bring a nice analogue texture, the melodies are filled with 80s nostalgia and the whole thing is coated in dust. Flip it over and you will find the more leggy cosmic explosions and chugging basslines of 'Milky Way' which is finished with a perfect vocal and plenty of nice vocoder sounds.

Disco/Nu-Disco
Make Me Wanna (3:22)
Wait Up (3:28)
Review: The latest dinked 7" single on Tim Zawada and Ben Van Dyke's essential Star Creature label comes from Diamond Oritz, AKA boogie and '80s soul revivalist Jeremy Diamond-Oritz. While there are many overlooked gems in the producer's back catalogue, there's little as rush inducing as "Make Me Wanna". A slick, soulful song with authentically rubbery and kaleidoscopic '80s soul/boogie production, it sounds like a long lost classic. The breezy, slap bass-wielding instrumental B-side, "Wait Up", is arguably even better. Like the A-side, it boasts some serious good synth action and a groove that you just have to dance to.

Fool 4 U (E live remix) (3:57)
Fool 4 U (3:46)
Review: The dazzling Star Creature label has an impossibly feel good future retro disco-funk gem on its hands here courtesy of E Da Boss. E has been turning out killer jams for many years and this time joins forces with Ishtar for 'Fool 4U'. It has funky-ass bass slaps down low, with plenty of jazzy and cosmic keys up top and boogie grooves that make you move. The vocal is acrobatic and brings sultry soul on the E live remix. On the flip the original is a little more upright with 80s chord vamps, noodling guitar licks and the vocal still bring the soul. Two gorgeous cuts for cosy dancefloor vibes.

Let's Not Start A Fight (Let's Get Down Tonight) (4:40)
Do Me Like That (4:37)
Review: Star Creature continues to thrill and inspire with each successive seven-inch single. The label's latest comes from debutants Family of Geniuses, a seven-piece boogie band from Chicago who back heritage influences with brilliant new songs. You'll find a perfect example on the A-side, where "Let's Not Start a Fight" - a sweet, perfectly-pitched boogie club cut that sounds to us like Escort making original electrofunk - sparkles from start to finish. Over on the flipside they doff a cap to the label's roots, offering up a brilliant cover of E Live's "Do Me Like That", the 2015 bomb that helped put Star Creature on the map.

Toe Jammin' (radio mix) (3:58)
Pleasure For Your Treasure (radio mix) (4:01)
Review: German combo First Touch can rightfully be considered amongst the top tier of 21st century boogie and electrofunk revivalists. Having previously shined on Omega Supreme, Born to Shine and Neon Finger, the Mannheim crew has now transferred to the brilliant Star Creature imprint. A-side "Toe Jammin" is particularly fresh, featuring as it does a killer combination of thickset synth bass, bustling drum machine rhythms, glassy-eyed '80s soul chords, rising horns and one hell of an extended piano solo. Thrown in all manner of synth doodles and you have an effortlessly brilliant cut. They try their hand at more traditional electrofunk fare on the flip, layering soulful vocal samples and fizzing synth solos over a classic P-funk groove. These won't hang around for long, so buy now to guarantee a copy.

Hot Touch (4:15)
Ain't Gonna Last (4:41)
Review: Straight up disco soul from Minneapolis troupe Freakway who - according to legend - are based deep in Tokyo underground disco scene. "Hot Touch" comprises tight musicianship (especially between the bass and drums) with great precision vocals that really shine with articulation and wry humour in a way that's not dissimilar to Cameo. "Ain't Gonna Last" slows the vibe right down with a more soulful boogie touch where full emphasis should be paid to the bass that's fluid and funky enough to make Larry Graham blush. Tight.

Expansions (4:33)
Everybody Loves The Sunshine (4:30)
Review: David Zylberman is the Ghost, a key member of Egyptian Lover's spaced out synthfunk backing band who now steps out for a hugely awaited new 7" after the label leaked advance copies in November. Plenty of big circuit DJs have already been giving these some serious airplay and for good reason: Zylberman flips a pair of classic tracks into his own breakbeat-tinged, electro-jazz-funk gems awash with new school vibes. First is the timeless 'Expansions' tunes that will take you to the cosmos on waves of warmth. Second is a body-popping version of 'Everybody Loves The Sunshine' that will light up the dance floor.

What About Luv (E live remix) (4:57)
What About Luv (4:36)
Review: If tactile, colourful and synthesizer-powered boogie revivalism is your thing, you probably already own a clutch of singles on the admirable Star Creature label. It's bad news for your wallet, but you need the label's latest "45" in your life too. 'What About Us' is a label debut from former hip-hop crew member Gillies, who serves up a sparkling, emotive chunk of squelchy synth-soul rich in squeezable bass, memorable melodies, Star Creature's trademark early '80s synth squiggles (LFO trigger action aplenty) and sweet female vocals. Label regular E-Live provides the flipside revision, combining D-Train style bold synth riffs with a chugging, pitched-down Italo-disco style bassline and unfussy drums.

Horror Games (instrumental) (3:41)
Review: Teddy Powell and Zee Desmondes are The Jack Moves, a contemporary disco and hip hop outfit who here link with unknown newbies The People Of Newark and Larry Hamm for this tidy new 7" on Star Creature. 'Horror Games' has a squelchy synth bass line that carries the loose drum work and bustling methane of background vocals and found sounds. A lead singer takes charge up top as various chatting crowds play out in the background. It's a busy tune that also comes as an instrumental for those who prefer the focus to be on the well crafted drums and bass.

Heavy In Stereo (5:25)
No Skip The Beat (4:23)
Review: This one has already been doing the rounds in plenty of high profile streams as a while label and it now finally gets a proper release courtesy of Star Creature. Igor Jadranin's 'Heavy In Stero' is a perfect bit of retro future disco mixed with Italo deep house. It breezes through a starry night sky on a nimble baseline with smeared chords and more pixelated keys bringing real light. It's impossible feel good in grown up ways, while 'No Skip The Beat' is a nice textural analogue workout that you might hear on Apron, with its popping cowbells and crystallised chords.

Dub Something Every Day (feat Saucy Lady) (4:32)
Review: Razor N Tape main man JKriv makes a rare appearance outside of his beloved imprint for this great one on the ever reliable Chicago imprint Star Creature Universal Vibrations. 'Make That Change' channels the heyday of classic early '80s NYC disco, accompanied by Saucy Lady's wonderful vocal work - guaranteed to be a floor filler. Over on the flip, JKriv serves up a slick disco dub remix which largely forgoes the vocals, but retains that amazing trumpet solo to keep the party going well into the late night.

Sugar (instrumental) (4:01)
Review: Some scintillating all-star action here, as nu-boogie star and Star Creature regular Andre Esput joins forces with fellow revivalist synth-funk stalwarts Kappekoff and Reggie Got Beats AKA RGB. 'Sugar' is the kind of colourful, bass guitar-sporting, synth-powered electrofunk goodness that would once have featured on legendary label Solar System - all squiggly lead lines, rubbery bass, tight machine drums and soulful lead vocals for the ever on-point Esput. The quality - and authenticity - of the trio's early '80s sound comes through loud and clear on the flipside instrumental version, which also includes added musical motifs and dub style drops. A genuine neo-boogie banger!

Love Generator (4:19)
Moon Bounce (4:01)
Review: When it comes to new boogie and synth-soul with an authentic flavour, you can't beat Chicagoan institution Star Creature. Predictably, their latest 7" should be another essential purchase for synthesizer lovers everywhere. It comes from Love's High, a collaborative project helmed by storied Israeli beat-maker Soul Supreme and vocalist Marlon Penn. "Love Generation" is a jaunty and colourful affair, with Penn's sumptuous vocal and hooky trombone motifs rising above waves of synth-bass and glistening electronic melodies. Turn to the flipside and you'll find intergalactic instrumental "Moon Bounce", which fittingly reminded us of Moon B and Dam Funk.

Under The Moonlight (4:27)
Power Of Love (4:40)
Review: Since joining Star Creature back in 2016, audio-visual twosome Shiro Schwarz has proved to be one of the label's most reliable and prolific artists. The male/female duo are old hands when it comes to crafting authentic synth-funk and P-funk-influenced '80s soul, so it's no surprise to find that their latest 7" is sublime. On the A-side you'll find "Under The Moonlight", a buzzing, Zapp-influenced number rich in slick vocals, ear-pleasing talkbox passages, D-train synth squiggles and all manner of sun-kissed guitar flourishes. B-side "Power of Love" has a more mid-'80s AM radio feel, with the duo's usual glassy-eyed vocals and colourful synthesizer motifs being joined by dreamy digital synth chords and an all-round loved-up vibe.

Boogie Ghost (4:06)
Review: When it comes to crafting colourful, revivalist synth-funk, few are quite as accomplished as Shiro Schwarz. The keytar-sporting Mexican duo has previously been responsible for a string of killer releases, most notably last year's brilliant mini album, Star Creature. They're at it again on Creature, a jaunty chunk of bubbly synth-boogie where both members take to the mic. Like many of their songs, it sounds like it should be blasting out of car stereos late at night. Flipside "Boogie Ghost" is a slightly more hard-wired affair, whose power derives from a thicket synth bassline and some killer talk box action.

Move Your Body (4:07)
Review: Mexicana electro boogie feels: Pammela Rojas & Rafael Marfill continue their rich vein of 80s funk form with two more neon keytar slappers. "Don't Know Why" sees Rafael take the lead on the mic with hazy yearning vocals and lavish D-Train synth stabs and able backing from Pammela. "Move Your Body" is a little faster with strong references to Zap & Rodgers and Chromeo along the way. Addictive.

Magic Of The Funk (3:47)
Review: Freshman funk troupe straight out of Chicago, Wings Of Sunshine make their debut with the You Got Me Now 7" for the Star Creature label. The title track sits snugly in the funk crawlspace between Plantlife and Funkadelic, all fly falsettos and serious slap bass. "Magic Of The Funk" jumps in the yacht for some slower '80s boogie fun. Instant summer on wax: with its majestic synths and smouldering tempo, the sound on this is only going to improve on this as the months get warmer. An impressive debut.

Daydreaming (instrumental) (4:03)
Review: XL Middleton's first 45rpm on the mighty Star Creature Universal Vibrations label is a majestic collab with the amazing Saucy Lady. 'Daydreaming' is pure good time music, packed with sunshine and to-die-for boogie baselines that wiggling away beneath jazz-funk chords and funked up drums. It's an irresistible jam as the temps go up, and if for someone reason you want to hear it without the effortlessly cool vocal, you can flip this 7" over for a fine instrumental jam. With debuts as good as this, the label is sure to want more from XL - we certainly do.
