house music cooked up just how you like it...
well done.

Spatula City Records is based in good old Chicago, IL, the place where house music was born. A good combination of Chicago house music mixed with underground spices, 1/2 cup of bounce, a full cup of originality, and an immeasurable amount of fun is the not so secret recipe that Spatula City Records serves up with every release. Just fire up your decks to a whopping 33 or 45 rpm and serve up a Spatula City record to please any dance floor or dinner party for that matter.

SPAT021: Bobby & Klein - "French Toast EP" OUT NOW DIGITALLY EXCLUSIVELY @ STOMPY

Spatula City Records is ready to rock:
SPAT021:
Bobby & Klein
"French Toast EP"


A1. Get That Bass
A2. Keep It Coming
B1. Party All Night (Original Recipe)
B2. aNyO - Boom Boom Boom (Bobby & Klein Badaboom Mix)


Spatula City Records is proud to presents its 21st release! Back after a three year hiatus from the land of kitchen utensils returns France's favorite sons Bobby & Klein with their new record "French Toast EP".  First established on Spatula City three years ago with their dance floor smash hit "Party All Night", the duo returns with a super heavy cream pour of pure funky house perfection.


The first tune "Get That Bass" is a straight away bass line banger. Funky rhythms alongside a wicked wobbly bass line makes for loose belts and pants falling down fun on the dance floor.  This tune is a favorite among swingers and sex addicts alike.

 

The second cut on the A side continues with the bass line madness.  "Keep It Coming" incorporates a juicy bass line smothered over Latin rhythms, complete with a sexy vocal hook that keeps you coming back for more ;)

 

On the backside we have the "Party All Night (Original Recipe)" , which has been long awaited by many house music enthusiasts.  This mix mimics the original that was released three years ago, except it has a killer wicked radio intro that is perfect for starting off dj sets and hyping up the crowd.  It is an absolutely wonderful dj tool.

 

To seal the deal B&K give us the "aNyO - Boom Boom Boom (Bobby & Klein Badaboom Mix)".  This is an absolute classic danceoor jam that has just been waiting for a home and has finally found it.  Welcome home baby!


Grab the digital download of this release NOW exclusively at:

Stompy


This fine Spatula City vinyl specimen is be available NOW at:

thanx. you are great artist and very great man

frankie j said... | on 16 Jul 2010

hey plc, actually those chords were samples :), but if you wanted to know, the sound is a classic fender rhodes organ sound and the chords were one handed minor chords. look up some chord charts and you will find your answer.

plc said... | on 13 Jul 2010

hi, perhaps it's stupid question for you but can you tell me how you do these beautiful chords like in johnny fiasco - reflex (frankie j) (i'm thinking only about notes combination not your technique) best wishes from poland
