This month we release a collection of 5 remixes by friends– massive stuff for the dancefloor:
Made to Play’s Round Table Knights reworked Gomma’s Mercury. Featuring mighty Robert Owens on the mic. Mercury made a hot remix of new band Junior. Mr. Munk remixed Berlin discohead DJ Kaos. Cocolores – German upcoming housekids from Exploited Records remixed Belgian house heroes The Glimmers – a track from their last year’s Gomma album.
Plus an edit of The Barking Dogs‘s “Linked In” by Innervisions’ Marcus Worgull.
They call them the “godfathers of the new Belgium dance scene”: The Glimmers. We guess that might be right as they deeply influenced all the new artists from the current Belgian disco movement. Aeroplane, Mustang, Villa… After their last album Whomp that Sucker on Gomma now they seem bigger then ever. Here come some fine remixes from various tracks on the album by Pete Herbert & Tristan da Cunha, Munk, Telonius, King Of Kong and Lipelis.
Here comes the video to Whomp That Sucker, The Glimmers‘ single for their first album on Gomma. And that album… wow! We are seriously impressed. The Belgian boys are getting crazy feedback on their new collection of dancefloor bangers. Here is some Star DJ feedback..
Tim Sweeney: “..support it for sure! ” Tronik Youth: “Love Rocked My World, killer track”
Trevor Jackson: “Glimmers are always reliable for floor burning mayhem” Mickey Moonlight / Ed Banger: “..as you know, i love it!” Matt Walsh / Bugged Out: “I love the Glimmers, always have, always will.. these are so good!” Social Disco Club: “Fuckin hell!! Massive. Gomma is one of most exciting labels at the moment.”
The fabulous Glimmers have just released their album on Gomma.. Whomp That Sucker! is available on 12″ and CD. Now we also have this nice mixtape here for you which introduces a lot of tracks from the album, combined with some classics and current tracks. Whomp!

Pure dance floor madness: Whomp That Sucker! is a collection of dance tracks made with Ray Mang (recently signed to DFA) and as the Glimmers describe it .. ”This time we only serve superpowerful discoid beats, analogue synths, bleeps, bass and FX. Play it very loud and be in a different state of mind for best results..”
