{"product_id":"chi-talo-ep-volume-2","title":"Chi Talo EP Volume 2","description":"\u003cp\u003eRecord label boss, producer\/DJ, and revered collector \u003cstrong\u003eMarc Davis\u003c\/strong\u003e returns to his \u003cem\u003eChi-Talo\u003c\/em\u003e series with the much-anticipated second volume. A concept of a split EP, taking one ultra-rare Chicago gem and the other a scarce Italian disco record and re-interpreting them for the modern dancefloor aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the first volume, released on Marc's own Black Pegasus label, now trading hands for considerable amounts of money, round two sees him impart another double dose of digging sorcery for this \u003cem\u003eMr Bongo\u003c\/em\u003e 12\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMarc began his illustrious career in the Windy City in the '80s and was one of the first out of Chicago to be recognized for his eclectic approach to DJing. Presenting a global sound palette that took in choice cuts from Brazil, Africa, jazz fusion, house, soul, and disco, whilst mixing it together Chicago style. Decades of knowledge and experience that is now distilled down into the \u003cem\u003eChi-Talo\u003c\/em\u003e series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Italo selection came via a tip from Marc's Swedish friend, Julian Wareing. Hearing the track led Marc down the rabbit hole to secure a copy of this Italo-Disco, album cut oddity by the New Sound Quartet from 1979. The original of \"\u003cem\u003eBass Construction\u003c\/em\u003e\", measures in at four and a half minutes and is already a feverish funk groover. But Marc saw an opportunity to extend and re-edit the track, keeping in the vein of the original but giving it space to breathe. Tweaking out every last ounce of goodness, Marc locks you into a hypnotic groove for maximum dancefloor deliverance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chicago side is as rare, as the rarest of hens-teeth, only ever existing as a one-off acetate by the band The Saucer Planes. One of the members of the group was the sadly passed-away older brother of Marc's DJ mentor, Jahmal Anderson. From the very first listen, Marc knew he'd been hooked up with an undiscovered boogie gem. A long-lost track that the world needed to hear. But the project has remained dormant until now, not least due to the fact that the original recording of this low-fi vocal boogie groove is housed on an ever-deteriorating solo acetate. Rescued, restored, and given a brand-new lease of life, Marc has turned the track into a low-slung, psychedelic instrumental boogie bounce. Raw, rough, and mesmerizing, it's a refreshed relic that is a testament to Chicago's club sound and swagger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhichever side you draw for, this is guaranteed to move bodies as much as it wins over hearts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mr Bongo","offers":[{"title":"Black 12\" - 2176953","offer_id":50399892275531,"sku":"2176953","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_2abbfa8e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726508752","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/chi-talo-ep-volume-2","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
