Velvet Season & The Hearts Of Gold - Camel Toe Central

VELVET PRODUCTIONS 2012

Velvet Season And The Hearts Of Gold is a brand new project of original music from (veteran) DJ/producers Joel Martin (Quiet Village/Maxxi & Zeus) and Gerry Rooney (Black Cock Records). After spending the last 3 years honing their sound in Gerry's Ability Studio, these are the first 2 tracks the duo have chosen to set the tone for their premiere release on Lucky Hole Records. Gerry and Joel would now like to give something back to the people who have supported them. Velvet Season is all about sharing their love of music with the World, having fun and not taking things too seriously.

Gerry (alongside cult leader DJ Harvey) was the first to bring the secret world of the 're-edit' to the underground UK dance scene with their now infamous and highly collectible 'Black Cock' Records. These seven coveted twelve-inch singles have gone down in disco history as definitive examples of the cut and paste art form, (continually copied and never bettered). Joel is one half of exotica group Quiet Village (alongside Matt Edwards), whose 3 influential singles for New York's 'Whatever We Want Records' led to the critically acclaimed album 'Silent Movie', a study in all things esoteric. QV are also known for their extended remixes and since 2005 they have reworked tracks by artists such as Bryan Ferry and The Gorillaz.

From it's exquisite ambient intro 'Camel Toe Central' weaves it's seductive spell. This is soon dispersed by a solitary kick-drum at heartbeat tempo. The track then teases and builds with layers of p-funk percussion until the sleazy dub-bass drops with speaker shuddering intensity. Throw in some off kilter psych-rock guitar and an exchange between a playful French maid and her Machiavellian master and you've got a powerful cocktail ready to ignite the senses with erotic mystique. Ohh la la!

'The Special Place' makes uneasy yet addictive listening. Midnight music for pitch-black basements where nothing is true and everything is permitted. This is stripped down dance music to the very core. Pure drum and bass, where Punk Rock meets Middle-Eastern Reggae. Is that a belly dancer's voice yearning for love buried somewhere deep between the grooves? Will you dare to enter the 'Special Place'? Delights and fantasies beyond your wildest dreams await you!

P.S. The one and only true legendary iconic Leader Harvey and fantastique DJ (gentleman and scholar) has chosen to license 'Camel Toe' for his special forthcoming Japanese DJ-mix cd on 'Xland' Records!
