Following Sounds of the Universe’s far-reaching selections yesterday, we’re closing out a week of Record Store Day recommendations with largely dancefloor-focused choices from our friends over at Phonica Records.

Head here to check out all of our Record Store Day 2023 coverage so far.

Jorja Smith & Joy Orbison

Rose Rouge

(Decca)

Joy Orbison hops on Jorja Smith’s cover of “Rose Rouge” by St Germain. Lush UK garage sensibilities meld with Smith’s rich, familiar vocals for a remix well worth rediscovering.

Happy Mondays

Balearic Beats

(London Records)

Four Happy Mondays reworks on one disc. Featuring iconic remixes from Paul Oakenfold, Terry Farley and Pete Lorimer, Balearic Beats is one for the ’90s heads.

Blunted Dummies

House For All

(Definitive Records)

Blunted Dummies’ ’90s anthem “House For All” has its first-ever 12″ vinyl reissue this Record Store Day with the original mix sitting alongside four remixes. Pure bliss, just in time for summer.

Various Artists

Larry Levan’s Paradise Garage

(BMG)

A must-listen collection of Salsoul classic hits, powerhouses and deep cuts, Larry Levan’s Paradise Garage features original Larry Levan remixes and an exclusive new artwork.

Bark Psychosis

Scum

(Rolling Heads)

Bark Pyschosis’ 1993 single “Scum” is remastered and reissued for Record Store Day. Improvised and recorded live in St John’s Church, “Scum” is an exercise in dynamics, moving slowly through the extremities of loudness and silence, melody and discordance. An absolute gem.

You can find Phonica Records at 751 Poland St, London W1F 7ND. Find out more about their Record Store Day ’23 collection here.
