When COR’s mixing boy Leon ‘Uncle Welshy’ Windsor is not supporting the COR cause with his one unique twist on the wonder that is ‘Balearic’, he’s usually busy in the studio with one cohort or another, whipping up aural delights right left and front.

Just lately Leon has been back in the studio working with old time production pal Triggs on new releases for their shiny new label VOCO . A huge departure from COR’s disco and balearic vibe, Leon and Triggs have been tuning up Voco Records to put out House and Techno tracks that really do span the length and breath of these genres.

You can find out more about Leon’s music and production background here, and follows is a message from Leon on the new releases from Voco…

Hi everyone,

First up, thanks for supporting the group and the label- it really is appreciated.

Right then, we’ve got a new release coming on 3rd September…. It’s Acid Trax by Stupid Computer. An electro house behemoth with more than a nod to the classic warehouse sounds of two decades ago, coming in two chunky original versions ranging from main room boom to retro techno flavours. The remixes are also ace, with a classy tech house turn by globetrotting groove merchants Modifier (a Scotland- NZ soundclash no less), a punishing prog-techno workout from hotly tipped newcomer Altered Mode (check her out on Soundcloud) and the slowed down dubby Balearic spacefunk from Southern Cross in their Retrobate guise to round off the package.

You can preview all the mixes on Soundcloud:

Please leave comments and we’d love it if you followed us on there. We will be giving away some unreleased material and ‘private’ mixes on there for followers so we’ll make it your while!

Forthcoming, we have some huge releases, including Modifier’s new thumper, the next Southern Cross installment and we’re also proud to introduce Parisian maestro Xaric to the VOCO family….

Watch this space, there’s plenty more to come and I’m not even mentioning the top shelf remixers we have on board for the next three months….

Thank you for your time- bless you one and all

Big Love.

Fresh home after knee surgery, Civilisation Of the Rough stalwart Mark Persaud hobbles up to the ones and twos and knocks up this lil prelude to the COR Boxing Day Bonanza smash up on, erm, boxing day. This disco mix goes from the underground to the party, the stripped back to the soulful, has a flirt with some old school house and even chucks in a bit of pop for good measure (are we aloud to say that?!). All done in the best possible taste though you understand. Anyway, grab yourself an earful of this little taster to get an idea of just some of what we have in store for you on Dec 26th at The Great Boxing Day Bonanza. Oh yes, it will be fun! From everyone here at COR Towers, have a wicked chrimbo, hope Father Christmas brings you everything you wanted and look forward to partying with you on Boxing Day! Big Love. And Enjoy…

Track Listing:

Coringa – Nasty Love Corigna – Under The Globe Crazy P – Disc Odyssey (remix) Fab Track – House Of Funk In Flagranti – Low Dose Virility Kraak & Smack – Money In The Bag Crazy P – Lie Lost (Dub) Crazy P – Lie Lost (Maurice Fulton Remix) Kathy Diamond – All Woman Johnny Hammond – Fantasy (Faze Action Disco Edit) Depeche Mode – Enjoy The Silence (Bass Line) Beatconducter – Let The Music Play (Edit) The Rolling Stones – You Can’t Aways Get What You Want (Soulwax Remix) Jocelyn Brown – Somebody Else’s Guy Odyssey – Use It Up And Wear It Out
