About this release
Body Beat explores soca's less familiar branches between 1979 and 1998, collecting 17 vocal tracks, instrumental versions, dubs and edits. Compiled by Miles Cleret and Jeremy Spellacey, it follows connections between Caribbean calypso and the disco, boogie, soul and house sounds circulating through New York, Toronto and London. Peter Britto's I Want Your Love brings steel drums and horns into a house-influenced setting, while selections from Andre Tanker, Brother Resistance and Mohjah show other directions in the music. Soundway presents the collection as a triple LP in a gatefold sleeve, with liner notes and reproductions of original covers and labels.
Format: 3 x 12" vinyl LP, gatefold sleeve
Label: Soundway Records
