Inner City Sound Archives 2 - Unreleased NYC Loft Cuts (1978–1983) (Vinyl Only)

"The mysterious Inner City Sound Archives imprint continues to rummage through old master tapes in search of previously unreleased gold. On this second missive, they turn their attention to 'NYC Loft cuts' - unheard versions of songs and instrumentals frequently associated with David Mancuso's legendary loft parties. On side A, the deep jazz-funk/disco fusion of 'Houston Street Hustle (Rough Mix)', a breezy, flute-laden affair, is followed by the Mancuso-only 'acetate' mix of 'Breakdown Boulevard' (a jazzier and more spiritual disco outing) and the classic, string-laden NYC disco of 'Body Heat Dub (unreleased studio take - 1979)'. Over on side B, the Rhodes-and-synth rich 'Garage Dub' of colourful disco-boogie number 'Crosstown Vibes' comes accompanied by the deep, rising disco warmth of 'Canal Street Dream (NYC acetate - 1981)'."
