Neon Soul

Soul Jazz Records’ long-lasting Punk 45 series are high-quality editions of early punk 45s. While previous editions have focussed on the early days of punk in Los Angeles, Cleveland, Akron, France, and proto-punk, this new edition focusses on mainly do-it-yourself, or self-released 45s, all made in the UK in the early days of punk.
While only a handful of Punk 45s were released in 1976, the following two years produced an avalanche of them. Aside from the few punk bands who signed to major labels, many of these singles were self-released private press 45s or independent label 45s. With limited distribution and access to the media, many of these sunk without trace and were lost in history. This album features many of these independent punk 45 gems, lost nuggets of gold from the sea of time!

Damaged Neons first mix hits the club-floor running, with Jordan going track-for-track with fellow countrymen, Allen and Envy. Through their productions, radio show, Together Recordings label and just-completed US tour debut, the fast-on-the-rise pair have been quaking the genres foundations of late. Steve and Scotts ebullient, uplifting sound proves the natural sparring partner for Jordans innate stylistic robustness. Early tough trance marvels like Argy’s mix of Suckleys Contaminated and the tech brutalism of Ritual thrill. Interspersed between are the equally effective likes of Maarten de Jongs and Sam Jones latest Unknown. Lifting the roof just that extra bit higher are Amir Hussains remix of Forerunners Lifecycle, Trinity from Chris Metcalfe and Miroslav Vriliks Backyard, which collectively deliver the mixs close-out blows.
