AMY DOUGLAS Vinyl & CDs

Review: Tireless diggers Soul Clap serve up more creamy grooves in the form of this sizzler from Michael The Lion and Amy Douglas. It comes soon after their big hitting "Get It On" and is another timeless fusion of US funk and soul, with big strings, authentic diva vocals and plenty of disco dazzle. Two different mixes form the legendary John Morales ensure "Find A Way" is utterly essential, while "Drink You Up" is a cheeky disco cut about sexual freedom. Closer "James Is The Message" is one that cuts loose in proper old school style with pumping drums, colourful synth explosions and vocals that you cannot help but sing along to.

Review: You can always rely on the Soul Clap boys to come through with pure party gold. This red hot package features the glorious disco sermon 'Willing' from Amy Douglas and Michael The Lion, with a remix from Ron Basejam that draws it out into a more low slung and steamy version. 'James Is The Message' (Jamie 3:26 & Danou P remix) is sweaty, chunky, full fat disco house for stomping crowds, and 'Find A Way' (feat Steven Klavier - The Patchouli Brothers remix) gets hands in there air, swaying bodies and smiling faces all coming together in joyous celebration.
