Choices EP Vol 2 (12")
Cat: UREP 216. Rel: 05 Sep 07
Review: The Ubiquity "Choices EP" series features multiple artists, all exclusive tracks - all killer no filler. Milez Benjiman is brand new talent, and his "All The People" is an exclusive cut. Hailing from the 4Lux crew out of Belgium this tasty mid-tempo freaky future soul cut is backed by a rough 'n' rude b-line and electronics for a mix that breaks musical boundaries and should appeal to DJs of all shapes and sizes.

Review: Leave it to me to come up with a cunning plan to sell Benny's wholesome soul to the devilish underworld of music. I asked Aardvarck and Steven to call him up: "Heya Benny, why don't ya come to our Rednose Distrikt Night?", as if they were inviting him to a party. At the time, The Rednose Distrikt nights at Amsterdam's Bittersweet club were "a very inspiring night out" as the rational critic's opinion read but more like a near death experience, for a real Rednose soldier like Benny turned out to be. Anyway, that night I took Benny along. He whistled a song of his upcoming third Benny Sings album when he entered the Rednose Distrikt and immediately forgot everything his parents taught him. There they were, Aardvarck and Steven de Peven as reliable as my great-grandfather's soldier comrades in the trenches, kicking the shit out of their laptops to the point of spilling guts, happy slapping granny, spray-puking vodka-lime, fisting a freaking' frump. To cut a long self-obsessed biography short, Rednose Distrikt fed Benny a heap of itchy beats and sickly groovy sounds. Benny fell to the floor, his head turned 360 degrees, steam came out of his ears, bubbles out of his nose and he looked like he was about to give birth to Rosemary's Baby. Then Aardvarck gave Steven the sign. They dragged him on stage yelling like a bad actor in a 'Nam war movie: "Sing Benny Sing. Sing or die!"

Champion Soul, well known from their releases on IG Cultures label Mainsqueeze, as well as for their nice debut LP on Japans Lifeline, consists of Andrew Edward Brown and Malik Williams out of New York City. "Holdin' On", which was around for a while creating some buzz on CD-R and picked for release by Sunshine Enterprises, they team up with singer Ronyx to create a broken anthem! Furthermore to the great original, there are some excellent remixes, DJ Kiva brings us a deep spaced out version. London don Phil Asher brought us a very soulful, excellent Restless Soul reinterpretation that will fill dancefloors worldwide. House at its best, dancefloor pressure! All different styles, and it's all good. Big up to all the artists involved!

Review: Something of an all-star affair here, as Sacred Rhythm main man Joaquin "Joe" Clausell sprinkles some of his remix magic over 'Inner Light', one of the standout cuts from Nicola Conte and Gianluca Petrella's 2021 album People Need People. Whereas the original was a richly percussive, dubbed-out future jazz-goes-dub house affair, Clausell's versions are warmer, looser, jazzier and deeper. Check first the A-side 'Cosmic Arts Version', where Rasahan Ahmad's poetic spoken word vocal rises above broken beats, layered jazz horns, warm bass, glistening guitar kicks and warming electric piano keys. The flipside 'Cosmic Arts Version' is, if anything, even better, delivering dubbed-out percussion, mazy trumpet solos and trippy effects aplenty. In a word: essential!

vocals to full effect. 'Good Love' is based upon chopped-up hip hop beats and songwriting. The bonus instrumental of this one is included
too. Then there's 'It's Not A Game' a dope production with occasional vocal snippets. And last but not least there's the free-spirited 'Stay Free'
with backing vocals by Jeff Byrd.

Cat: BUTR 3. Rel: 04 Oct 13
Review: Promoting his limited vinyl series from the 7" league to the 12" premiership, Diesler's Buried Treasure brand provides its biggest beat bounty to date. Charged with a thriving sense of turbo funk and broken beat mischief, each cut screams carnival and peak time perkiness. The tight horn harmonies and percussive textures of "Smokin Jo Crow"; the slower, seductive boogie-based jam "In The Loop"; the tight, jazzed out Bugz-style stomps of "Rokko Loko"; the acid wiggles and tropical riddim of "Lullaby"... Every aspect of this extensive release sparkles with sonic soul.

Modern Funk Sampler (7")
Cat: FSR 7040. Rel: 17 Jan 08
Review: Freestyle serve up 2 James Brown tributes as a sampler for the recent Modern Funk compilation. It has been argued that 2007
was the year that the underground funk movement finally started to make its presence known in the mainstream. Huge selling
artists such as Mark Ronson, Kanye West and Amy Winehouse spearheaded a movement towards a more organic and authentic
sound, selling thousands of records in the process and whisking bands, who have been gigging in small sweaty clubs in the UK
for years, off on world tours. The music itself harks back to the golden years of Motown, Watts and Stax, as well as hundreds of
unknown smaller labels, but given the all important production values of the 21st century, making it perfect for the dancefloor -
hence the tag 'Modern Funk'. The a-side finds The Fantastics (previously known as Reverend Cleatus and The Soul Saviours)
getting busy with The Godfather's 'Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose', sticking pretty close to the original but slapping their unique style
all over it. Over on the flip Speedometer and Ria Currie take on 'Answer To Mother Popcorn', originally a Vicki Anderson number,
giving it a update for the dancefloor in 2008.

Review: The electronic minimal funk of Filewile's "Damn" paints the perfect soundscape for New York Rapper RQM's brilliant anecdote about a ride on the A-train on a rainy Sunday. On this tune rhyme and music blend in rare harmony to create a funny, crisp and sexy image of an only too familiar situation. Two remixes accompany the original version, one by Jahcoozi and the other by the Round Table Knights. The extra track is a dubby reggae tune named "Forward", featuring Rider Shafique of the Son Of Man/Pressure Drop camp.

Review: Soul Supreme is a master keyboardist best known for his covers of classic hip-hop songs by the likes of Mos Def, MF Doom and A Tribe Called Quest. Here side-steps his covers duties to handle remix productions for two of his contemporaries in the Netherlands neo-soul scene - Gallowstreet, LYMA, Shamis and Rebiere. The A side lends a wonky future house feel (a-la GoldLink, Crackazat) to '52 North', Gallowstreet's ode to the city of Amsterdam. The B tune strips it back to a lo-fi soul bapper, fleshing out its theme of loneliness in parenting.

Review: Heralding a quarter century of service for one of Italy's best-loved record stores, three certifiable house troubadours join forces to offer up tracks of the finest calibre, not least if you love old-school flavoured Chicago house music. Glenn Underground is up first with the Latino-tinged roller "Spiritually Captured", all charming chords and lightly drummed percussion. Isoul8 brings a more gutsy kind of acid house that both punches in the bottom end and bubbles delightfully on top before joining up with Ricardo Miranda for the sublime "P Boogie". Combining heartbreaking arpeggiated twinkles with expressive bass and luxuriant pads, a truly spellbinding track is crafted, and it's certainly not one to miss out on.

Review: While rooted in jazz, the output of Bristol outfit Ishmael Ensemble has always incorporated elements from different styles - something we attribute to main man Pete Cunningham's prior career as a DJ and a producer, as well as his long involvement in the eclectic-minded Bristol music scene. It's perhaps fitting then that the band's latest missive is a five-track collaboration with another West Country hero, MC, singer and producer Rider Shafique. His role as a "dub poet" is explored on largely ambient opener 'C90 Intro', while he channels the spirit of Tricky and Massive Attack on jazz-meets-trip-hop jam 'Polestar'. Elsewhere, 'Reasons' is a hazy, rising and atmospheric contemporary jazz song, 'Salam' is a harp-infused ambient soul song, and 'New Era' is a thrilling jazz epic.

Review: Pete Cunningham's hybrid electronic/acoustic jazz collective Ishmael Ensemble has been right at the forefront of innovation when it comes to those sounds. For his latest project he links up with lyricist and MC Rider Shafique. They first met some six years ago when Cunningham was struck by "his powerful way with words." As such they got in the studio, Cunningham embraced a more bass heavy sound to his style and drew on his love of the likes of dub kings King Tubby and Adrian Sherwood. Coupled with Rider's voice and you have a superb new record.

Titled It's Been A While, it consists of three original pieces like the dusty, Sunday afternoon open-air vibes of 'Love's So Far Away', followed by the equally deep 'Day By Day' which similarly channels that classic Detroit house vibe - think Andres or Big Strick. Speaking of which, there's a remix of 'Just This' by one of their Motor City contemporaries, Kai Alce, over on the flip - this one's pure bliss.

Tatham delivers sublime vocal and instrumental reworks of Roy Ayers collaboration 'Get Up', re-casting the track as a sun-soaked, slowly rising slab of soulful gorgeousness rich in broken house beats, dazzling electric piano licks, rubbery jazz-funk bass and spacey synths. Over on the flip, De Lata delves into their bag of Brazilian influences and delivers vocal and instrumental revisions of 'This Feeling' that sit somewhere between summery samba, afternoon-ready soul and life-affirming nu-jazz.

Review: Kyoto Jazz Massive's most recent album, the critically acclaimed Message From a New Dawn, was packed to the rafters with highlights, with their surprise collaboration with jazz-funk legend Roy Ayers, 'Get Up', arguably being the best of the lot. Here the track gets a deserved single release, albeit via two 45-friendly re-edits from Japanese scalpel fiend DJ Kawasaki. He subtly snips and chops the track on the A-side '45 Edit', finding room for both the various instrumental solos and vocal sections while keeping the original's focus and energy in-tact. Over on the flip he chooses to showcase Ayers' superb vibraphone solos, jettisoning the original version's vocals on an all-instrumental revision that's a genuine jazz-funk-goes-disco treat.

Messin Around Sampler (12")

Review: Started in 1996 by music enthusiasts, DJs and compulsive record diggers Adrian Gibson and Perry Louis, Messin' Around was only expected to run for a few weeks. 10 years later and the session is still going strong - attracting crowds of music lovers from London and further afield. It seemed only right to release a compilation to celebrate this milestone for one of London’s longest-running jazz and boogie nights, but it was also essential to release some of these tracks on to vinyl for the first time. Leading the charge is Rasmus Faber with the tantalising "Ever After (Samba reprise)" setting the pace for the dancefloor. Following on is Elizabeth Shepherd with her fully-charged "Four" - exclusive to this 12". Over on the flip, Abossa Eletrica drop the fantastic "Beleza Nao Vai Embora", whilst Boomish finish things of with the be-bop jazz sound of "Smalls". Essential music for the more discerning dancefloor!

Review: Whilst Basement Jaxx might have a clutch of chart toppers in their arsenal, the London duo have never been shy to retain the link to the underground house scene from which they rose as well as indulging in some experimental deviations. As well the recently released Basement Jaxx orchestral album, the duo's excellent Atlantic Jaxx label serves up this physical version of Simon Ratcliffe's decidedly hard to categorise solo endeavour Doris Rijkers. Originally released digitally to less fanfare than it deserves, the vinyl edition is a thing of beauty with a intricate embossed sleeve washed in a hand printed design - it's the kind of record you've half decided to buy before you even get to the music. Which is revelatory, spanning everything from spasmodic synth freakouts akin to Dam Funk wired on LSD to Battles meets Squarepusher in the car park for some signature eschewing dust ups. More of this please Mr Ratcliffe.

Review: Listening to The Raw Interpreter's third and latest missive, the Grany's Thought EP on Warm Sounds, you can easily imagine a hooded figure working the machines and literally punching the samples into the title track. Sampled keys twinkle and frolic above a beat down kick and two-timed claps, while basic percussion is effectively employed to create that perfect loop. Pow pow hip hop beats paired with a clatter snare introduce "The Way You Love Me", as a mumbling vocal backed by a filtered choral loop enters, later topped with plucked strings looped to infinity. "Late Nights" is a complete analogue jam devoid of samples until, like the rest of the EP, a loop of keys and cut up vocal snippets enter, thus creating another rough and ready groove. The final track "Dusty Blues" could well be a borrowed version of Dusty Springfield's "Learn To Say Goodbye", only given a thorough and blitzed out Warm Sounds raw interpretation.

Stunningly original, yet exactly what you're looking for.
