Lots of new music, including Ossie, Om’Mas Keith, Machinedrum, Jesse Boykins III, Ikonika, Jimmy Edgar, Sweat.X and Anti-G. So that this Citinite page doesn’t get turned into a Nitetrax radio page, I’ve set up a Nitetrax site where I’ll be archiving all links and playlists from now on. And the flyers look pretty.

Give It To Me Hot EP preview by Citinite

More information, taken from the press release:

Give It To Me Hot is a 4-track EP that pays tribute to one of the hottest, raunchiest (but sadly short-lived) funk/punk groups from the early 80s, Sexual Harrassment.

Sexual Harrassment was started by radio DJ Lynn Tolliver whilst he was working at MCA Records, and the Cleveland-based group had a gold single on the Heat/Montage label. Their rarer 6-track album from 1983 has become a collector’s item.

To do their tracks justice, we asked modern day artists who are synonymous with a sex-driven funk attitude to either cover or reinterpret the originals.

LA-based vocalist Lil’ Kenny starts us off with a sweat-inducing rendition of ‘You Are My Sexual Connection’. Backed by limit-pushing production from modern funketeer Dâm-Funk, the powerful bassline, searing rides and deep-throated vocals are as honest and uncompromising as we could have hoped for.

Sweat.X’s interpretation of Sexual Harrassment’s most famous track, ‘I Need A Freak’, follows. Spoek Mathambo and Markus Wormstorm’s compulsively dark vision, with its broody, frustrated funk sound, riffs on themes of unsated desire and pleasure-pain.

Jimmy Edgar contributes a backing track unlike anything he has ever done before for little known gem, ‘Exercise Your Ass Off’. Combined with the energising vocals from G.rizo, the track reminds us of the 70s New York alt music scene whilst simultaneously feeling like the beginning of the next wave.

Finally Robert O’Dell rides in with his unique style for ‘If I Gave You A Party’. Co-produced by Jeppe Loverman, this version is by turns unsettling and thrilling and has proved to be the most popular on the EP amongst DJs we promoed the tracks to.

It’s a fine way to close an EP that we hope stays true to the candid, fun and untempered spirit of the originals.

N I T E T R A X   E D I T I O N   1 I’m excited (and a little nervous) to be launching a monthly radio show later this April on the new internet station, NTS. The two-hour show will be called Nitetrax and the first edition will go out on Thursday 21st April, starting at 10pm UK time (2pm Pacific, 5pm Eastern if you’re in the USA). Expect non-stop futuristic sounds, ranging from influential classics, modern tracks and unreleased exclusives. There’s a Facebook event page for it here. Hope to have you with me.
