Following on from their first instalment, the guys at Parisian soul/funk/jazz label Heavenly Sweetness are back with a follow up. Having spent months scouring the net for the best new sounds, they proudly present the cream of their findings - 15 in total. Highlights include the future bass/jazzy trapisms of "Down Brandy" which takes the eponymous RnB singer and warps her into another dimension, the drunk cat on a keyboard-isms of "Muscles", the cool retro hip-hop of "Boomboxin" and the 80s freestyle pop of "The Followers".

Review:
10 years on from its initial release, Groove Armada's contribution to the Anotherlatenight series gets a new lease of life. For those searching for deep, downtempo and vaguely Balearic fare, it's well worth a look. While Groove Armada's mix is enjoyable enough, it's the unmixed tracks that are most worthy of attention. Amongst the familiar classics (Kleer's boogie classic "Tonight", Mr Fingers' "Can You Feel It" and Metro Area's "Muira"), you'll find hot curiosities from the likes of Shuggie Otis (the decidedly acid-fried "Strawberry Letter 23"), Loose Ends ("Feel The Vibe"), Good Together (forgotten super-deep house jam "Work It Out") and Don Ray (the heady disco grooves of "Standing In The Rain").

Review:
These guys are an atmospheric four piece from Peckham who enlist singer Abigail Hardiman for live pursuits. Now signed to Chris Coco's Melodica label, this is their debut for the imprint. There's two originals here; the flighty "Taint" which is all Motown drums, ethereal synths and twanging guitars, and the doomy, rolling drummed electronica of "Attgo". The title track also gets remixed - in a deep, gentle fashion by Djrum, as funky broken beat by King Krule & Jamie Isaac and deep house-pop by Mokadem.

Review:
Fresh from the success of the Hurricane Season In Brooklyn album, APS, the project headed by studio whizz/drummer Amon, are back with a follow-up EP. This time the emphasis is on Amon's original influences from West Africa and recording involved a revolving cast of singers and musicians hailing from the country of Guinea all participating at Brooklyn's The Hook Studio. The result is three tracks with a combined running time of about 18 minutes and shedloads of talent. "Coule Ba" touches on reggae, "Korosi" is all retro funk while "Dioubate", with it's enchanting xylophone melodies, is the standout track here.

Review:
Some two years after his last LP, Bibio is back with Warp unfurling more of his tape-warped wisdom for those more reflective moments in your life. It's a mellow affair at nearly every turn, from the distant shoegaze malaise of "Dye The Water Green" to the purposefully MOR folk of "Raincoat", but there's still some cheeky fun to be had in between the more introverted spells on Silver Wilkinson. For example "You" gets busy with radio-busting vocal and orchestral snippets with an end result that feels compatible with the more imaginative corners of mainstream hip hop and R&B production. Really though, listening to Bibio is all about getting wrapped up in the pastoral dreamworld he inhabits, where songs can be songs, singers can be singers and sound sources can come from anywhere.

Review:
In typical Wolf + Lamb fashion, New York duo No Regular Play defy easy categorization. While their sound is rooted in the touchy-feely house and electrofunk-influenced deep-pop so beloved of the label, they offer far more than straightforward dancefloor thrills or 21st century synth-pop vibes. Endangered Species, their debut album, does its best to sidestep convention. The results are, by and large, enjoyable, coming on like a cross between Soul Clap, Prince and Benoit & Sergio. There are excursions into wonky hip-house, synth-funk and pure pop territory, as well as cuts that refuse to stick to one designated groove.
