Swedish but Berlin based label Trunkfunk Records are on a roll at the moment, their latest release is the “Bitchfight” EP from British producers Trevor Loveys and Affie Yusuf. The track features Spoek (our favorite South African rapper and all around amazing fella) and this awesome remix from Gothenburg trio The Touch which boasts some tribalistic drums, a little bit of that wobble bass, cowbells and layers of synthy goodness.

Fredrik AKA DJ Nibc is originally from Gothenburg, Sweden but now resides in Berlin where he runs the Trunkfunk label. He just finished a long (2 hours 20 minutes) live mix that is basically a conclusion of his summer in Berlin. This mix is filled with good stuff such as three exclusive Trunkfunk tracks; among them a remix from Stuffa (on the same track there’s a remix from Berlin big shots Jesse Rose & Oliver $) and also a new track from Gothenburg trio The Touch.

The Blänk project with a follow-up to the smashing track “Take Your Shirt Off”. The track “I’m Going For Your Brother” gives us the vocal offerings from Lina (of The Touch fame) + Atlanta rapper Young Ivy. The original is a breathtaking slice of italodisco that reminds us of Sally Shapiro while the Waa!Fi (Andreas from The Touch) remix aims straight for the dancefloor with its bassdriven stomp and Boody B (AKA Haldan from Palms Out) switches it up with more of a soft electrodisco take.

Gothenburg based dance trio The Touch gives us a bootleg remix of the track “The World’s Greatest” from our favorite r ‘n’ b crooner turned slightly deranged mega-ego artist R Kelly. They polish it off with an electrodisco feel + adding the occasional wobbly bass and effects.

Robyn has come a long way since being that childhood popstar here in Sweden. Since then she’s pretty much steadily conquered the world. “Cobrastyle” is not exactly a new track but Gothenburg trio The Touch gives it a second chance with their remix. They chop it up and gives it a filthy, bleepy electro feel but manages to balance it all out when they add a housepiano to the mix. The result is a track we’ll be able to dance to all winter.
