Fashionable perversed synthpop disco

Graphic designer Alex Gloor & producer/dj Sasha Crnobrnja are In Flagranti. These two Swiss cats moved to Brooklyn a long time ago and formed the label Codek Records back in '96. They then became known as In Flagranti, dropping 12"s on the regular since the early 2000's. Most their music is made from late 70's/early 80's disco funk samples reworked with added syncopated basslines and a kitsch yet oh so sexy touch. Almost each of their releases is accompanied by a mini video, most of which are made from edited found footage with an obvious taste for 70's softcore porn aesthetic. They released a new EP last month called Sounds Superb 2. You can listen to most of it on their myspace and get it here. In the mean time, here's some of my favorites tracks and remixes of theirs, mostly from '06 and last year.

In Flagranti - Nonplusultra (Sex Schon Mix)

In Flagranti - Melodymaker

In Flagranti - Genital Blue Room

Antipop vs Asia Argento - Vampy (Inflagranti Remix)

Black Devil Disco & In Flagranti - On Just Foot Forever (In Flagranti Remix)

Kudu - Bar Star (In Flagranti's Sleek City Mix)

I love it! If you like the disco sound you should check out Nicolas Vallee (www.myspace.com/nicolasvallee). It is a more refined disco-like sound (not quite disco though). He's an overlooked artist who deserves recognition. Du bon french house! Lets not categorize though and just enjoy what we hear.

Hey Renata, thanks for the link, I'm listening to it right now and it is indeed pretty groovy. Somethings tell me I might see you again soon. ;)

In Flagranti are VERY talented and very nice guys. You should check out some of the Smylonylon tapes Alex did back in the day on my blog. The tape 28 is more groovey/disco than the earlier tapes.

Whooaah! Thanks, man! That's great stuff. Love you blog, by the way. I'm all about Italo Disco and obscure 80's grooves these days. I will definitely feature some on here.
