A tribute to the dancefloor and its ability to spread love.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWith two deeply cherished compilations already in the bag, Luke Una steps up for the third volume in his É Soul Cultura series on Mr Bongo. A love letter to the dancefloor and its power to unite people from all corners of society amid growing division and extremist politics. Genre-spanning in nature, the 17 tracks travel between cosmic soul, boogie, proto-house, slo-mo technoid grooves, drum machine afro, astral bass-bugging futurism, jazz funk, dance, and disco. Each having the ability to move the body as much as the heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFrom his formative years in Sheffield to co-founding Manchester’s much-fabled Electric Chair with Justin Crawford, through to helming the iconic LGBTQ institutions of Homoelectric \/ Homobloc, Luke has spent 40 years immersed in dance music. His latest outlet, É Soul Cultura, has grown from a label to a globe-spanning events series with Luke holding residencies and embarking on tours across the world from Japan and Australia to America and Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOpening up the compilation is a track that channels that very message, the transcendental, soul-rousing Harris \u0026amp; Orr ‘Spread Love’. Joining the dots from there, to the low-slung deep house closer of Fatdog ‘Remember’, you’ll find electronic drum machine Nigerian funk, sitting side by side with dancefloor Cape Verdean brilliance, a post-punk cover of Fela Kuti, rubbing shoulders with cosmic electro, and an Una-championed, 8-minute, kickless DJ Harvey remix. There’s jazz funk in various guises moving from boogie synth to astral travelling, slo-mo acidic raw techno, and a ‘79 soul stepper, alongside swirling percussive Italo disco and tribal-charged house. All infused with an innate ability to bring people together.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RHYTHM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40427340792009,"sku":"470859","price":79.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/7120\/7498\/files\/470859-Product-0-I-639052662003562620.jpg?v=1769669465","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.co.nz\/products\/vinyl-various-luke-una-luke-una-presents-e-soul-cultura-vol-3-vinyl-2lp","provider":"JB Hi-Fi NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
