Dissidenten & Lem Chaheb – Fata Morgana – Amok Records
I discovered it on my hometown record shop and bought it immediately. Forever in my box.
Be.lanuit feat. Marcos De La Fuente – Nana A Leon (taken from ‘Summer Selections 4’ EP) – NuNorthern Soul
It’s a bridge between two seas for the unity of Ibiza and NYC through the music and dedicated to Marcos De La Fuente’s son. They are from Soein, and Leon was born in Williamsburg.
Soul ll Soul feat. Rose Windross – Fairplay – 10 Records
Always love its sound. For me this is still one of the best productions I ever listened to.
Soft Cell – Bedsitter – Vertigo
I remember listening to this one on my father’s car radio.
Nitin Shawney – Migration – Outcaste Records
This track was the first track I heard back in 1995 where World Music was mixed with electronic sounds and I fell in love with it.
Frank Sinatra – Get Me To The Church On Time – Capitol Records
My father’s favourite song by Frank Sinatra. I remember him playing it on his turntable and dancing like Frank.
The Brand New Heavies – You Are The Universe – FFRR
I played this track for the first time in 1997 in Valencia in a nice and small club focused on Acid Jazz. Good times!
Cock-Robin – The Promise You Made – CBS
I’m not a lover of couple’s songs, but maybe this one, as I always used to listen to it at my Uncle’s house and loved it.
Charlie Rouse – Merci bon dieu – Blue Note
This is my favourite version after Harry Belafonte’s.
Richard Galliano – Luz Negra – Milan
This song takes me to Trastevere in Roma.
‘Various Artists – Summer Selections Four’ EP will be released on vinyl, all digital download and streaming platforms on May 13th 2022 on NuNorthern Soul
