I cannot stop listening to "Hawaiian Island" by "Sorcerer":http://www.sorcerermusic.com/magic/. I've played it about a million jillion times in the last 5 days. It's on his new debut album _White Magic_ that came out this year on London label Tirk. It's such a smooth album. It sounds like disco in slow motion. Really reminiscent of Metro Area and Kerrier District. I want more of this. I hope this is indicative of what else Tirk has to offer. This album from what I've read is drawn from the artists love of California, the ocean, the coastline, good times, and nostalgia. One fun tidbit is Sorcerer is Daniel Saxon Judd from indypop band Call and Response. I absolutely loved Call and Response's first album on Emperor Norton. Anyway I wanted to post some of my fave tracks from this album. It's hard to pick a few since the whole album is pretty solid. If you listen to the track "Surf Wax" please tell me if I'm wrong in thinking that baseline is from something else. It's driving me crazy.

Tirk is definitely a label worth checking out. I think they rose from the ashes of the old Nuphonic label. They've got a very mixed roster but it's all good. They released the first Fujiya & Miyagi and New Young Pony Club EPs, as well as Maurice Fulton, Idjut Boys, some fantastic Greg Wilson edits, and much more goodness. They sell mp3s at Bleep, Beatport and Boomkat too.

You're welcome ivy. My brain is spacing out on the Bananarama song. It'll hit me sometime in the middle of the night.
Marco I'm going to check some more out for sure. I got this on emusic and i'm going to check out the other stuff they have put out too. I read about the Nuphonic label but I never got anything off of it. If Tirk is all disco housey music like this then I think I'll dig it.
