Levin Goes Lightly - Nightclubbing (Elaste)
23rd June 2023
A: Levin Goes Lightly - Nightclubbing
B: The Members - The Model
(Elaste)
We love to explore corners of our record collection that may not always get the exposure that other club friendly tried and trusted forty-fives might get. Today we focus on a future example that is bound to live long in the collection even when the shutters go up and the lights come on once the weekend comes around and the city comes alive. Today we present two tasty burners for the late night crew. The label is Compost Records imprint Elaste which is dedicated to the sound of the early 80s: New Wave, Electro Kraut, Punk, Proto-Disco, Industrial, Reggae, Coldwave.
'Nightclubbing' is the brainchild of Stuttgart's Levin Goes Lightly who have constructed this moody low slung version that when we hear it we see in our minds eye the seedy underbelly of the city. It's a place where Levin Goes Lightly feel most at home and they have the perfect soundtrack for that place and time.The flip features a dubby cover of 'The Model' from UK punk rockers The Members who strip the original cut back to the bone and rebuild it with nuff style and fashion for the reggae heads.
