Release: 16 May 2014
New Nancy Whang. Produced by Bonar Bradberry.
The second single of Nancy Whang on Gomma. A cover of Donna Summer’s “Working the Midnight Shift”. The Moroder classic. But Bonar Bradberry made a new fantastic beat! We have 2 versions: A italo disco summer and a darker detroit inspired electro version. Top tunes!

Cat#: Gomma 184
Release: 3 May 2013
Looks like this is gonna be one of the big Gomma singles this year.
The first new Munk since 2 years. A mad track. Already played by Tensnake, Maxxi Soundsystem, Recloose and Todd Terje who told us that he is dropping it in every set he is playing since he had it.
The tune was recorded by Mat Munk Modica in Brasil and Berlin. Featuring brazilian punk singer Gab Cervallos. It’s crazy. Somebody called it : New Wave Funk House. Maybe he was right…
Have a listen. Also the Severino Horse Meat Disco and Bonar Bradberry (PBR Streetgang) Remixes are the bomb!
