Various Artists – Glitterbox Jams Volume 3

Returning for Volume 3 of the sought-after series, Glitterbox Jams is back with another red-hot delivery of dancefloor gems, ready to become a record box essential for all discerning disco DJs. Delivering a selection of the imprint’s finest cuts, most of which have not been available previously on vinyl, the release opens with Glitterbox resident Melvo Baptiste’s debut on the label ‘Bad Company’. Featuring London vocalist Phebe Edwards, Melvo draws inspiration from golden-era disco with funk-fuelled guitar riffs, an irresistible bassline and percussive interludes. Yuksek’s remix of the Glitterbox debut from enigmatic Australian producer Sidwho? follows, a retro disco jam with a slick, modern twist. On the flip, pioneering Belgian producer Aeroplane’s remix of ‘Jump Into The Light’ by Horse Meat Disco & Kathy Sledge opens the AA Side, displaying his signature nu-disco sound at its finest, with a bumpy, grooving bassline and playful synths giving the Glitterbox anthem a clubbier feel. Finally, a brand new 12” mix of Sticks & Stonez and Liv East’s ‘You’re My’ closes out the package, a blissed-out record that transports you to hazy summer days.
