Soul Clap, the pair known for causing considerable havoc on the dance floors, has finally returned with some original material. ‘EFUNK’ goes in heavy with some vocal collaborations, featuring Lazarus Man, Baby Prince AKA Gadi Mizrahi of Wolf + Lamb, Greg Paulus and Jule Born to name a few. Slow and sexy has always been Eli Goldstein and Charles Levine's by-line and EFUNK proves a momentary change of direction for the pair, with more laid-back late night vibes.
Released a while back here is a FREE E.P from Soul Clap and friends:
First in line are Wolf + Lamb/Double Standard label mates and Brooklyn unsung heroes Nick Debruyn & Greg Paulus aka No Regular Play with "Strange Cameo". Their rework of an 80's funk gem is inspired by many Marcy Hotel dance floor moments and has an oh so classic house groove and fresh bass line begging to be danced to.
Second up is a Washington DC based industry newcomer, but after hours veteran, Navid Zahraie aka NavBox. His breakout contribution "He Likes You Too" is a stunning and emotional rework of an American singer-songwriter. This tune was one of the most magical moments of Soul Clap’s 2010 Sunday School For Degenerates DJ set that had DJ T of Get Physical fames's jaw dropping and feet moving.
Thirdly, Mark Caramelli and Paul Hargreaves, better known as Death On The Balcony. A few months back Soul Clap remixed them for their Magic Bag Records imprint and after a few gigs together in Leeds everyone has become close friends. They bring a dancefloor bomb with a sense of humor to the release with "Cruel Banana". This 80's pop hit gets a monster drum pump and rolling bassline guaranteed to please and cheese.
Finally, to complete the release the Soul Clap vaults have been opened to reveal "Falling From The Sky". This piece was written around the same time as The RnB FreE.P., but never saw the light of day. With 90's NYC at it's filter heavy core, we've built a drum and synth framework that sets an afterhours mood perfect for falling from the sky and of course puffing tough.
By harnessing the past Soul Clap looks to the future, with forward thinking productions and remixes, creative DJ sets and some of Boston's best dance music events. Soul Clap released their first 12" records on Airdrop Records, "The Giraffe", "die Ente" and "Puppy Crack". In Boston, each summer they organize Dancing On The Charles (one of Urb Magazine's six best outdoor parties in the US) and every Wednesday they host Midweek Techno (Boston's longest running techno night), while continuing to broadcast live to planet earth on The Adventures of Soul Clap Podcast. With a recent bomb on Crosstown Rebels, a 2010 summer Extravaganza and slew of remixes coming soon, you better make sure to catch the clap in a city near you while you can.
