RELEASE DATE
12/9/2016
2002 release. Far Out Recordings celebrate ten years in the business with
Off The Shelf
, a collection of classic, deleted and rare tracks from the 12" vaults of Far Out Recordings and sister label Solaria.
Off The Shelf
kicks off with the sublime "Khameleon" from
Difusion
(aka
DJ Venom
) who also contributes the flute-driven broken beat cut "Second Future" and is a man held in high regard by the likes of
LTJ Bukem
and
Peter Kruder
. The classic
Big Bang
swinging jazz tune "Colours" was massive with
Gilles Peterson
alongside
Da Lata
's highly-sought after "Ponteio".
Flytronix
's unreleased jazz-shuffler "Elevator" gets a debut airing whilst
4 Hero
drop their massive summer 2000 hit "Smile" under their
Natures Plan
guise.
Mark Pritchard
pops up twice, once under his
Troubleman
alias with his now deleted Afro-assault "Strike Hard", and later under his own name with his seminal jazz-tech-step remix of
Azymuth
's "Carambola". One of the original Brazilian drum n' bass cuts from 1996 -
Roni Size
's legendary remix of Azymuth's "Faca Del Conte" - also gets a welcome rewind. Far Out Recordings was created in 1992 by renowned Brazilian music aficionado
Joe Davis
. Since then it has released classic albums from established Brazilian artists such as
Joyce
and
Marcos Valle
as well as killer 12"s from contemporary global talent such as 4 Hero, Da Lata and Big Bang. Joe explains the ethos of Far Out: "We wanted to create a sound for both Brazilians and club goers from all corners of the globe. We aren't really interested in keeping the sound underground, we want it to be accessible and immediate for a mass appeal without trying to make pop or commercial music." In 10 years Joe Davis has gone from hunting treasures in dusty old record stores across Brazil, to running a successful record label dedicated to all angles of Brazilian music, from jazz, to electronica. Solaria records was born in 1998 as a label dedicated to independent electronic music aimed at the dancefloor - future disco music and jazz inspired electronica. Also features:
Democustico
,
Salidor
and
Banzo
.
