SPACE INVADAS is STEVE SPACEK and KATALYST. Steve Spacek is the internationally acclaimed voice behind the ground-breaking group Spacek (championed by everyone from Entertainment Weekly to Mos Def), and Katalyst is the award-winning Sydney-based producer signed to BBE & Invada Records. The two artists have now teamed up following the success of their first collaboration “How ‘Bout Us” (as featured on Katalyst’s “What’s Happening” and Gilles Peterson’s (BBC) “Brownswood Bubblers 3”).
But really – these artists need no introduction. Having collaborated with some of the best international artists such as Harmonic 313, J Dilla, Portishead, Stephanie McKay, Diverse and J-Live – we don’t need to tell you this show and the upcoming record are gonna be BIG.

Daptone Gold!
Posted by Rex in DJ Mix (Downloads), Fresh stock, News, Record of the Month on November 11th, 2009
On November 24th Daptone Records will release DAPTONE GOLD a collection of some of the label’s rarest and most favorite singles and deep cuts on CD and a lovingly packaged double LP, which includes a poster, a sticker and some amount of gold foil. The always fiery Lee Fields appears three times: once on a duet with Sharon Jones, again on his own “Could Have Been”, and on “Stand Up,” previously only available as a 45 RPM single.
Thanks to Daptone & Reverberation we’re proud to you you offer a little taste right here. Available as downloadable MP3, it’s the full unadulterated version of Lee Fields “Stand Up”. Surely one of the dopest 45’s to come out Daptone HQ over recent years, this Lee Fields tune is a future soul monster. Press PLAY, don’t delay, DO IT TODAY!

Hopefully we’ll have this instore real soon CD & vinyl of course. Watch the newsletter and website for more updates. This LP set is sure to be an invaluable DJ tool for years to come.
