Disco champs James Murphy – Munk – Nick Siano – Dimitri from Paris on one EP!
Why? Because it’s 2017 and Disco is infiltrating the electronic music world again. So it makes sense to put the spotlight on a few essential tracks that preceeded the new Disco wave.

DIMITRI FROM PARIS and his brother in crime DJ ROCCA come back to Gomma with a new 3 track EP. His fourth release on Gomma. For those who are too young to know: Dimitri is a legend! You can put him in a row with old school wildstyle disco heroes like DJ Harvey, Baldelli or Francois K.

He has been doing consistently good music over the last 20 years. From his „A Night at the Playboy Mansion“ compilations to his own tracks, his always inspiring DJ sets and most of all: his never disappointing edits: his rework of Prince: „I Wanna Be Your Lover“ must be one of the most hammered edits of the last 10 years.

Dimitri comes from the Parisian school of Disco. He first appeared to the bigger public with his debut album „Sacrebleu“ in 1996. Coming along with the first French house wave (St.Germain, Super Discount, Daft Punk…) – he quickly became a worldwide respected DJ with a very own personal touch. He officially remixed artists like Bjork, New Order, Chic and even – officially – Michael Jackson. In 2005 he produced the album “Super Pop Venezuela“ for Los Amigos Invisibles which grabbed a nomination for a Grammy Award.
Let’s put it like this: Probably there is not one DJ with taste that hasn’t got his personal favorite Dimitri From Paris track in his bag.

Some years ago Dimitri teamed up with Italian producer, DJ and man of many talents DJ Rocca. Rocca might be known to many for his work as Ajello and Crimea X. Among the many names he produced music for he also made tracks with cosmic disco innovator DJ Baldelli. When Rocca and Dimitri are in the studio together, they somehow have a magic touch. Simple, yet effective, heavy disco influenced but never retro sounding little pearls they produce.
Glamorous as ever. Nasty as always.

Horse Meat Disco are steady supporters of Gomma since a long time.
The 100% Gomma series invites friends of the label to do a own selection of the Gomma catalogue. In form of a DJ MIX and a compilation.
The last mix (2013) came courtesy of Jacques Renault. He created a cosmic balearic selection. His compilation has been no.1 of JUNO Download house albums charts for six weeks. The new one by Severino used some of the more energetic tracks of the catalogue: Luke Solomon, Morgan Geist, DJ Kaos, Dimitri From Paris, Munk, HessIsMore and many more
Lot of new tracks – but also older tracks – that still sound fresh.
You can get the whole mix as a one hour mixed podcast or as several tracks.

Hess Is More is a 7 person musician’s collective based in New York and Copenhagen around musical mastermind Mikkel Hess. They released their Gomma debut EP last June. Strange, beautiful music from outta space.

Now here come the remixes. Dimitri from Paris did an effective, supersexy disco stomper. Keeping a lot from the original version. The crazy voices, the Punk Funk feel, the moody, new wave atmosphere. But now it’s a club bomb. Then Williamsburg’s hidden underground star Lorne Dune reworked the other song. In a more edgy, distorted way. Beautiful. Then you have a version by Munich’s Pollyester. The former bass player of Munk now has gone solo. She does this kind of naive, early 80ies, powerdisco you could hear at clubs like the Loft or DJ Harvey playing. The EP also features a extra long version of the song Primate. Orgastic Hardcore Disco Rock.

Tracklist (Commented by Mikkel Hess from Hess Is More):

1. Also Sprach Zarathustra (Strauss)
– Yes – Ding Dong – Space Odyssey 2011 – what can I say – fell asleep to that movie so many times – great – as is by the way the documentary “Stanley Kubrick’s Boxes”.

2. Better Change Your Mind (William Onyeabor)
– Rasmus Bille Bahncke and I met Eric and Yale from Luakabop Records in New York – they played us some tracks from William Onyeabor and this mysterious record they were about to release. We immediate became fans. Some years later we had a chance to perform with the Onyeabor tribute band “Atomic Bomb” at Roskilde Festival. We both played accordion and we were dressed in priests costumes that we borrowed from The Royal Theatre. We practiced the keyboard part in advance so we could hop right in – the keyboard player Mark was super nice. I didn’t know it was MONEY MARK till after the rehearsal – probably good – otherwise I would have been too starstruck to play.

3. I Want More (Can)
– One time after a concert many years ago a friend of mine said that we sounded like a band called CAN. I didn’t know what he was talking about, but I started listening to the band and I really like them a lot. So, in retrospect I think that was a great compliment.

4. Youarenotaprimate (Hess Is More / Dimitri From Paris Remix)
– The original is 13 minutes of dorky live dance music. It’s so wild to play it live with the incredible band – building building building….
Dimitri From Paris of course did a fantastic job with the remix, keeping the DNA intact and really getting into details with the arrangement. And if it wasn’t dancy before…. We are honored how deep and funky he went! Thanks maestro.
This will be out on limited 300 copies of vinyl via Gomma Records in September.

5. White Horse (Laid Back)
– Well not really, but those four bars at least. I have been a fan for a long while so of course we should have a little taste of their magic in the podcast.

6. Airlane (Gary Numan)
– Speaking of Laid back before – It was Kenneth Bager who first introduced me to Tim and John in Copenhagen. Come to think of it, it was also Kenneth who gave me this Gary Numan track.

7. A State of Tomorrow (Listening Center)
– Listening Center aka David Mason. One of my favorite artists in New York. Mason also plays the electronic drums with Hess Is More. He’s just the best – can’e even begin to explain it. The music will do the talking.

8. Stockhausen ?
– I think it was Julio Monterrey aka Youthfaire aka Ambiance who once sent me this Stockhausen mini audio file – I don’t know where it’s from but it’s a nice little peak into another world.

9. Creation Keeps the Devil Away (Hess Is More)
– Fairly self explanatory no ?

10. Everybody (Madonna)
– This is such a cool intro – not so sure about her sining later on, so I kept it short for now.

11. And More (Can)
– Yes, there is more. We did a version of this song for Live Mixtape, the opening of Distortion Festival in Copenhagen some years back. Tiffany Roth from Midnight Magic came over, mainly to do this repetitive chorus backed by four drummers. It was nuts. Really nuts. Good nuts. Nobody got hurt.

12. Inside is Outside (Listening Center)
– I told you already I have a man crush on David Mason, so of course there’s gonna be one more track from Listening Center in here.

13. Wheel of Fortune (Hess Is More)
– Maybe this wasn’t my most shining hour of healthy living, meditation and divine insight. But the slightly dark outlook during that period made for some good moody lyrics. Written, recorded and produced at our Broadway spot with Rasmus Bille Bahncke and Theodor Clausen.

14. Bearsong (Hess Is More, Lorna Dune Remix)
– Lorna is another New York / Brooklyn favorite. I shall not spoil the fun on this one – just dive in and we’ll talk later.

15. Beam Me Up (Midnight Magic)
– Well it all kind of connects doesn’t it – now here’s Midnight Magic – what a killer crew. Andrew plays that mean bass – he also helped us produce and record Hess Is More practically “live to tape” at Midnight Sun Studio in Greenpoint. I’ve seen / heard Midnight Magic live at least 10 times – and I’ll go again any day – is it called slaying now a days or what’s the correct term ?

16. “DJ FRENZY”
– Yes, you can put everything in a sandwhich!!! This is a princemgmtsteviecuremjdepechedoubledecker. Why ? But Why Not.
I think Rasmus Vestervig aka 99 Blows was trying to teach me a more intuitive approach with the software.

17. Pine Siskin (John Neville Bird Sounds)
– Just a little breather before the finale.

18. British Mango (Hess Is More ?)
– Yes, one more overloaded sandwich – this one without samples though. Only fresh ingredients mashing up the classic recipes.
Nightmare from a UK 80’s teen room.

Hess Is More – The new band on Gomma. Watch their live show at Royal Theatre of Kopenhagen.

The Jazz Electronic Group based in NYC just released two songs on Gomma.

When a band is selected “Top 10 live acts of the year” by glitterballnyc it really has to be something special. That’s the case for Hess Is More. A transatlantic music ensemble. 7 international musicians around Danish composer and drummer Mikkel Hess.

Hess is a composer of music for film, theatre and ballet. Latest he was nominated for the prestigious Robert Award and Carl Award with his score for the feature film “When Animals Dream“.
Bearsong and Youarenotaprimate were arranged during the group’s residency at Clocktower Gallery in downtown New York. Recorded Live to Tape and mixed by Andrew Raposo (Midnight Magic /Hercules & Love Affair / DFA) at Midnight Sun Studios in Greenpoint.

These seven musicians, with their unique instrumentation and unorthodox arrangements create a very danceable yet at times puzzling sound. Melodies with unusual developments, basslines that have their roots in late 1970 jazz funk. Youarenotaprimate is an orgy of No Wave drums, Afrobeat-bassline and distorted rhode pianos. The lyrics can haunt you for days: „You are not a primate, you are not Maharishi either, but in between there is someone called yourself“. Hess Is More have a hugh fanbase already in New York’s undergound music scene. People like James Murphy of DFA, Pitchfork’s favourite avantgarde pop musician Lorna Dune and Lowbrow Reader editor Jay Ruttenberg are big fans of their live shows. Pips from Petty Nobles Collective just wrote this nice quote: “I believe I just witnessed the future of live dance music“.

A vinyl with remixes by Dimitri From Paris, Pollyester and Williamsbourg’s hidden star Lorna Dune will come out in september.
