New heat off Mike B’s forthcoming Scion A/V compilation, “Los Angeles: Tite At Nite” which should be dropping later on today. Listening to “Ensenada Nights” off the EP from newcomer Evan Stalker is reminiscent of cruising down the sunset strip with a trunk full of Four Loko.

Get it below, and look out for the full compilation later on today, featuring an eagerly anticipated DJ Dodger Stadium track, “Late Nite Respek”.

Even though “It Can Be Done, But Only I Can Do It” is the first LP from Alex Omar Smith since 2005, it would be a blatant lie to call Omar-S unproductive. His Detroit-based imprint FXHE Records has been unleashing a near constant barrage of classic material over the past few years, everything from 12″ records to blank CDs filled with mixes from the early 2000s to… um… ice cube trays. Even more impressive is that the album was released less than a week on the heels of a free Scion collaborative project that paired him with Theo Parrish. Fortunately, when it comes to classic Detroit techno and house, there’s no such thing as a point of oversaturation.

“It Can Be Done” is a eclectic but controlled mixture of new material and some of the previously vinyl only releases, like a mishmash of house, techno and downtempo beats, but really calling it a mishmash makes it sound unplanned or thrown together in some way. Instead, it feels like a culmination of several years of progress coming together to form a cohesive sound.

Kicking off with “Solely Supported” from last October’s “These Complimentary Tracks” EP, you’ve got a slow burner combining trace elements of acid house with an infectious drum kick that takes its time coming to the front of the track.

Meanwhile, “Look Hear Watch” is the most NSFW dance music track of the year, or, maybe decades. Either Omar-S is employing some world class pornographic foley artists, or there’s an audio track of two people really “doing it”.

“Here’s Your Trance, Now Dance” is still the most recognizably ecstatic track on the LP, but it’s given a serious run for its money by the title track, where filter mutated synth stalagmites seem to be sprouting out of the ground all around the dancefloor. “Nite’s Over Compton” sets crashing high hats and mellow piano keys overtop clacking drums and acid 808s, and “Over You Too” sounds like you’re descending into the memory banks of a computer circa 1988, awash with fuzzy undulating bass.

All this is to say, this is one release that’s absolutely essential listening whether you’ve been following Alex Omar Smith for years or if you’re new to this whole thing. Grab it at Phonica now.

Midnight Magic is a historical childrens novel or in this case a nine-piece ensemble out of Brooklyn that makes funky disco music. They just came off a US tour with Cut Copy and tomorrow they’ll release a free EP on Scion, but you can grab a Discobelle exclusive in form of the track “Julio” just by handing in your e-mail address via the widget below.

Detroit resident and essential house music lifeforce Omar-S has a new EP! Even better, thanks to the nice folks at Scion A/V, it’s five tracks of completely free music ranging from dark dancefloor winding menaces to classical Detroit house homage.

If you’ve been sleepin on Omar-S’s latest releases -like, for example, the A-side only vinyl sleeper smash “Here’s Your Trance, Now Dance!” or the accompanying and difficult to track down Shadow Ray remix (his collaborator on the “Oasis” project, rumor is that this remix was apparently commissioned from Shadow Ray while he was in jail as part of a “rehabilitation effort” – details on that remain shady though). Also in the package for good measure, we have a collaboration with house God Theo Parrish, and news of a forthcoming album, which will be the first since 2005. Praise Omar.
