Far Out Recordings present the fourth 12" single of the Monster Disco Orchestra series. The first three instalments 'Mystery' (remixes from John Morales and 4 Hero), 'Dead Dance' (remixes from Mark E and LTJ Xperience), and 'Freefall' (remixes from Jose Carretas and G & D) sold-out instantly. Limited to just 250 copies 'He's Alright' may well be the hottest instalment yet as the underground buzz builds on this vinyl only project and with special mixes from monster producers Mark E and MODE.
Top disco/house producer Mark E returns to the FOMDO series to follow his mesmeric slo-mo mix of Dead Dance on FOMDO 2. With a huge reputation built upon his masterful edits Mark E took off following his version of R&B Junkie by Janet Jackson in 2007, which became a cult underground classic. He released the acclaimed 2009 EP Codsall Juniors in 2009 before putting out two volumes of his edits and productions last year on his own label Merc. His remix of He's Alright is perhaps the finest remix of the FOMDO series so far. A slow, layered build up - typical of the Mark E sound - is flush with strings and a pulsating 303 bass line. Subtly and sparsely introducing the vocals of the original, E's remix is a wonderful summer anthem to satisfy both the dancefloors and chill out tents.
On the B-side is East-London producer MODE. His debut release Lo-Fi Odyssey in 2010 for Codek Records, which featured mixes from In Flagrant and Pete Herbert, is followed by this second similarly heavyweight 12" release for the classically trained rising electronic star. Building out of euphoric synths He's Alright (MODE Remix) bursts in to a heavy slo-mo funk groove. The bass line drives the song forward with Mia Mendes’ beautiful vocal hook, MODE's unique beats and the unmistakeable Azymuth-inspired synths from Bertrami swirl together for another sublime extended monster hit.
Joe Davis (label founder) created the Monster Disco Orchestra alongside long-time Far Out producers David Brinkworth (Harmonic 313) and Daniel "Venom" Maunick (son of Bluey Incognito). He's Alright is written by Far Out founder Joe Davis and Azymuth keyboard maestro Jose Roberto Bertrami and the stunning, soulful vocals are provided by Marcina Arnold and Mia Mendes. He's Alright was recorded in Brazil with the Monster Disco Orchestra led by Azymuth's Jose Roberto Bertrami, arranged by Arthur Verocai and with Rio's finest musicians and hugely talented string section it is supersized disco like you've never heard before.
