Is that Mont-Saint-Michel on the cover? Or is it St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall? Either way, they'll be playing Mar de Novo's 'Last Disco On Earth' this summer as it's a big slice of fun disco/boogie/funk.



You'll recall the long and winding road of Loverbirds' last release before the 12" (see review HERE) and the label is at it again on this one.

• ‘Last Disco on Earth’ is a huge slab of disco-fuelled house. Fat grooves, cheeky melodies (Grange Hill meets Studio 54 anyone?) and cool glitchy production. Uplifting and energetic - guaranteed to put a smile on the dancefloor. Digital release date: 1 May 2026

• ‘Over There’ is a twisted slice of bass-heavy undulating electronica, punctuated by crazy interludes and samples that fly in from nowhere. Digital release date: 1 May 2026

• ‘Uncanny Valley’ is a sun-kissed downtempo groover, with dreamy strings, guitars, and horns. Wonderful chilled musicality and like waking up to a summer morning. Digital release date: 17 April 2026

• ‘Reflection’ is a blissed-out sanctuary of space, peace, and calm. Feel-good slow-motion vibes, with guitars and piano intertwining alongside haunting vocals. Digital release date: 27 March 2026

• ‘Find Love’ rounds off the package with a melancholy Balearic sunset groove, with soft Rhodes keys nestling alongside synth lines, telling stories as it goes. Digital release date: 1 May 2026.

Mar De Novo is/are two producers, one of Italian descent, one with roots in Brazil, that have a quirky (to say the least) style and if you said 'Feel-Good' again, you'd be spot on!
