Review:
Having been on the radar of nu-jazz, broken beat and subterranean soul heads since way back in 2005, the Jazz & Milk label is now one of the longest-serving imprints in a fiercely underground scene. Here, they offer-up a digital reissue of Jazz & Milk Breaks Volume 2, a compilation that deservedly proved popular on CD first time round. In typical Jazz & Milk fashion, it features a breezy collection of floor-friendly cuts in a jazz dance style. There's plenty of variety within the 11 tracks, with decidedly robust nods to mambo, Cuban dance music and skittering electro-jazz nestling side by side with downtempo jazz, hip-hop inclined beatscapes and shuffling soul. If you've not yet got a copy, don't sleep.
