Various Artists - Disco Not Disco
12" - Strut / Audioglobe'Any new manifestation in culture rewrites the past, turns old criminals into new heroes and old heroes into people who should have never been born.

Kid606 - Pretty Girls Make Raves
CD - Very Friendly / Tigerbeat6 / WideMiguel Manuel De Pedro, AKA Kid606, goes all the way. He's a sound saboteur who, with this amusing title, produces a fat techno electronic dance.
