Taken from the recent highly acclaimed ‘Milky Disco’ compilation on Lo Recordings, ‘Spacer Woman’ is a scintillating slab of high octane italo space disco. Created by Johan Agebjˆrn who was responsible for all the production on Sally Shapiro’s ‘Disco Romance’ album, the 12 includes remixes by Rude 66 and Elitechnique which take it even deeper into space and onto nu-disco dancefloors.

Dutch electro artist Rude 66, with releases on labels like Viewlexx, Bunker and CrËme Organization, previously remixed Sally’s hit “I’ll Be By Your Side” into what Clone called ‘ killer remixes’, receiving plenty of club play from DJs like The Hacker and Tiga. His take on this 12”, titled “Deeper space woman”, is a slow and deep dubby trip which will work well as a start-up for slower DJ sets. Dutch duo Elitechnique, with releases on Clone and Radius and earlier remixes for Black Devil Disco Club and Alden Tyrell, take the track into a nu-disco dancefloor monster called “Outer space woman” with additional backing vocals by the Dutch actress Loes.

The 12” ends with a wicked sidechain dance version of a computer game track, “Mega Man II re-mix”, by Johan Agebjˆrn here without Sally’s vocals but with vintage 8bit sounds.

Sally Shapiro’s debut album “Disco Romance was released in 2007 and received excellent reviews from magazines like Pitchfork Media, Vice, Der Spiegel and XLR8R. It was recently nominated as “electronic/dance album of the year” by U.S. Plug Awards and Sally was nominated as “female artist of the year”. “Spacer Woman From Mars” was originally intended for “Disco Romance”, but was taken out because of it’s space, rather than love theme.
