COR are heading to Brighton!

The COR crew are hitting  the road this Saturday and heading to Brighton to play at the wonderfully underground GO BANG! in the warehouse space underneath Brighton train station!

These fellas really know how to smash a party. They’ve been huge part of the underground scene in Brighton for years now and to top it off they are truely lovely gents. They came and spun at our monthly Rough Around the Edge bash last month and smashed it. So now it’s our turn to repay the favour.

The venue is cracking. It a warehouse space underneath Brighton train station called ‘The Green Door Store’. Proper underground. Love it. And best of all ENTRY IS FREE!

WE WANT YOU TO GET INVOLVED!

We would love you to come with us.

We have a mini bus booked and have 7 seats left.

Who fancies it?? Message me ASAP if you’d like a seat!

Hope you can make it. We popped in last time we were in Brighton to play for Pablo Contraband at Disco Deviant. Had a lil Pompey crew with us then and just had the best night. This is gonna be fun. Get invovled!

Big Love.

Here’s a sneeky peek at he COR Moment mix album cover!

We’ve put the Moments album together to try and sum up the last two years of COR and our journey so far. Because of this, we decided the album artwork should reflect this too.

Every single element of the album artwork has been used before in the making of COR. Whether it’s been part of our posters, flyers, back drops, stage props, projections, badges, stickers, signs, tees or our website, you will have seen these featured characters and elements before somewhere at COR.

The album cover art also comes complete with a commentary expertly word smithed by our very own COR mixing boy Leon Windsor, giving you a run down of the tracks and reasons from the COR selectors as to why they decided to choose the tracks they did for inclusion on the album.

Don’t forget the launch party for our Moments album is Saturday 25th Sept. This is only a 100 capacity event, in the vein of the initiate soirées we started out with. Every ticket purchased will get a FREE copy of the album on the night, but do hurry if you want to get involve, tickets have already started to fly. Dont sleep on this!

Here’s a link to the events dets on this site :

COR Album Launch Paar-Tay!!

And here’s a link to the faceache listing :

Hopefully see you there.

Big Love.

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:

http://soundcloud.com/voco-records

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

If you like what you hear, why not sign up to the Voco Records Faceache Group to keep in the loop on future delvelopments.

Good luck with this Leon, good to see your keeping yourself busy outside of COR!

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…
