PERMVAC 024EP
|
2008 release. Two songs from Euro/Italo disco queen of the 21 century Sally Shapiro, alongside exclusive remixes from by Lindstrøm, The Juan MacLean, Tensnake and CFCF. Presented in her distinctive Euro-style, Sally Shapiro's two tracks, "My Fantasy" and "He Keeps Me Alive," leave nothing to be desired. Norwegian superstar Lindstrøm expands "Time To Let Go" to an almost 11 minute long galactic journey. NYC's The Juan Maclean turn "I Know You're My Love" into an original true Italo disco love affair. After 12 inches on Radius, Mule Musiq, Mirau and remixes for Junior Boys and Alexander Robotnick, Tensake delivers a dancefloor bomb with his remix of "I'll Be By Your Side." Montreal-based wunderkind CFCF has remixed the likes of Crystal Castles and The Teenagers, and here transforms "Time To Let Go" into a timeless pop anthem.

PERMVAC 020EP
|
2008 release. Heavily influenced by '80s Italo disco, Sally Shapiro's "Jackie Jackie (Spend This Winter With Me)" is a stunningly beautiful song with a catchy hook and a refrain that won't leave you for a long time. The mighty Junior Boys turn "Jackie Jackie" into a blinding disco stomper with an energy level that will have people going nuts on the floor while Dyylan's remix is a dreamy ambient rework.

"The Swedish disco princess Sally Shapiro with her debut album Disco Romance! She became well-known in disco communities earlier this year with 'I'll By By Your Side,' which was rated 4.5 out of 5 by the highly acclaimed U.S. Pitchfork Media and was called an 'utterly perfect slice of italo synth-pop' in Vice Magazine. Sally (whose real name is a secret) is so shy that she refuses to record a music video, perform her songs live, let herself be photographed by someone she doesn't know, or even let her producer be in the same room when she's recorded. I still haven't heard her sing one single song from the album live. I was outdoors mowing the lawn when we recorded the vocals, Sally's producer Johan Agebjrn says. Actually that's all not important the deal is that we have an album full of italo disco inspired pop anthems! Obviously the sound is inspired by Italian '80s disco, and it's in the circles of I-f, Metro Area, Serge Clone, Daniel Wang, Glimmer Twins, Lindstrøm she'll find her fans." Given an 8.5 and "Best New Music" certificate at Pitchfork! Last copies of the original Dutch pressing...
