Munky-man Mathias played a euphoric party in PORTO ALLEGRE in the South of Brasil some weeks ago. @ The local NEON Superparty. The guys recorded the set and here you can download it for free. It was a quite good and funky acid bongo crazyness that night… We guarantee 100% happiness with this mix on your local “last day of the year” party.

We give away 5 vinyl copies of the new Casablanca Reworks E.P. For Free. Gomma All Stars feat. Peaches. Out on Gomma in January. Just give us a LIKE on this Facebook post. And tell us which is your favorite Gomma artist 2011.
Friends, in January we gonna release a very special project. We have been asked if we wanna do new versions from songs from the catalogue of legendary Disco label Casablanca Records. The label that launched the careers of Donna Summer, Moroder, Cameo, Parliament and many other great pop music innovators..
We asked Peaches if she wanna join the jams. And now we have an EP coming up. Four new versions by Telonius, Munk, The Phenomenal Handclap Band. And a nice cover of Maniac by Moullinex. Release: 13 January 2012.
Listen to the full medley of all 4 “Casablanca Reworks” tracks by The Gomma All Stars feat. Peaches:
Moullinex is on fire. After his tropical house anthem “Sunflare” he smashed it up with the vintage acid Modular Jam – which was supported by Tim Sweeney, Hot Chip, Digitalism and even British old school house legend Ashley Beedle. Now he gave Modular Jam to some friends and interesting newcomers to rework: Justin Faust, Earl Grey aka Danny from The C90’s, Say Again and Worship.
