Now, \u003cstrong\u003eMagic Feet\u003c\/strong\u003e returns with a superb four-track \u003cstrong\u003e12 inch vinyl sampler\u003c\/strong\u003e, bringing together two of the album's standout tracks alongside a selection of previously unheard versions. Blending \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic disco\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003edowntempo house\u003c\/strong\u003e, dub, electrofunk and psychedelic influences, this is a beautifully atmospheric collection of alternative dancefloor grooves.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nFirst up is \u003cstrong\u003e'Everybody Pushing'\u003c\/strong\u003e, featuring the unmistakable vocal talents of \u003cstrong\u003eThomas Gandey\u003c\/strong\u003e. A blissed-out, piano-laced slice of late 80s-inspired \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic beat\u003c\/strong\u003e, the original combines infectious vocals, rolling breaks and warm electronic textures to create a seriously uplifting groove. Alongside it sits an immersive instrumental version, stripping back the vocal while allowing the track's bubbling synths and atmospheric production to take centre stage. San Francisco cosmic disco royalty \u003cstrong\u003e40 Thieves\u003c\/strong\u003e then step in with their \u003cstrong\u003e'Lights Down Low Version'\u003c\/strong\u003e, transforming the original into a considerably more psychedelic, late-night excursion that blends dub disco, electrofunk and cosmic house while retaining its laid-back Balearic spirit.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nOn the B-side, \u003cstrong\u003eCraig Bratley\u003c\/strong\u003e revisits the album's title track with \u003cstrong\u003e'Return To Bass (Ashigaru Flashback Dub)'\u003c\/strong\u003e. Taking the original in a tougher, more stripped-back direction, \u003cstrong\u003eAshigaru\u003c\/strong\u003e ditches the trumpet in favour of sirens, vocal samples and heavier drums, creating a hypnotic, slow-motion dub excursion. With dreamy chords, mind-altering acid lines and a head-nodding hip-hop tempo, it brings a darker, more psychedelic edge to the release. An excellent alternative interpretation that perfectly balances immersive \u003cstrong\u003edub\u003c\/strong\u003e production with tougher electronic rhythms.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nFollowing the release of his first album in 12 years, \u003cstrong\u003e'Return To Bass'\u003c\/strong\u003e, Craig Bratley once again demonstrates his ability to move effortlessly between \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic house\u003c\/strong\u003e, cosmic disco, downtempo and dub-infused electronic music. A beautifully curated sampler featuring standout originals and exclusive-feeling reinterpretations from \u003cstrong\u003e40 Thieves\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eAshigaru\u003c\/strong\u003e, this is an essential release for DJs and collectors drawn to deeper, more psychedelic sounds.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nPerfect for DJs and collectors looking for quality \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic disco vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic house records\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003edowntempo 12 inch vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e, dub disco and leftfield electronic music on \u003cstrong\u003eMagic Feet\u003c\/strong\u003e.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nA1 - Everybody Pushing\u003cbr\u003e\nA2 - Everybody Pushing (Instrumental)\u003cbr\u003e\nB1 - Everybody Pushing (40 Thieves Lights Down Low Version)\u003cbr\u003e\nB2 - Return To Bass (Ashigaru Flashback Dub)\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Buy This Vinyl?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour-track sampler from \u003cstrong\u003eCraig Bratley's\u003c\/strong\u003e acclaimed \u003cstrong\u003e'Return To Bass'\u003c\/strong\u003e album, already being recognised as one of 2026's standout electronic music releases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures the vocal talents of \u003cstrong\u003eThomas Gandey\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Balearic-inspired highlight \u003cstrong\u003e'Everybody Pushing'\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a psychedelic \u003cstrong\u003eLights Down Low Version\u003c\/strong\u003e from San Francisco cosmic disco favourites \u003cstrong\u003e40 Thieves\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures \u003cstrong\u003eAshigaru's Flashback Dub\u003c\/strong\u003e of the title track, delivering deeper dub rhythms, acid lines and hypnotic downtempo grooves.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEssential for collectors of \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic disco vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eBalearic house records\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003edowntempo house\u003c\/strong\u003e and leftfield electronic music.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Magic Feet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59341452804470,"sku":"MF024","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/9042\/9781\/files\/Craig_Bratley_-_Return_To_Bass_Album_Sampler_12_Inch_Vinyl_Magic_Feet_Records_Side_A.jpg?v=1794571002","url":"https:\/\/www.nothingventuredvinyl.co.uk\/products\/craig-bratley-return-to-bass-album-sampler","provider":"Nothing Ventured Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
