Review: If you're in the mood for some sun-kissed sounds tailor-made for sun-kissed pool parties and lazy afternoons on the beach, Future Disco's latest compilation could be just the ticket. You get 18 unmixed tracks for your DJ sets, plus a non-stop mix to help while away the hours while your skin turns a lovely shade of red. Musically, it's a mixture of baggy Balearic disco-pop (Luxxury, Stavanger Hunt and Future Disco's "Another Lifetime", dub disco influenced grooves (Soulwax remixing Tendts, the low slung strut of Lowheads' "Seven Afro Mood"), dreamy deep house sexiness (Henrik Vilard, Moon Boots) and evocative nu-disco haziness (the Italo-influenced thrust of 16BL's ace "You Are High"). More importantly, the quality threshold remains high throughout.
Review: It's that time of year again when the Miami comps flood in thick and fast, and here's this year's offering from the Anjunadeep camp. With the label now so well established that they host their own festival, you've probably got a pretty good idea what to expect, and you wouldn't be far wrong, with the 12 tracks included largely coming from that nebulous zone where deep and progressive house collide. There's a satisfying mixture of established names - Dosem, Alex Metric, Tim Englehardt - and more up-and-coming artists, and fans of the label are unlikely to come away disappointed, with Lyrocoriscoris's dreamy 'Leave' and Dosem's tougher, techier 'Not Leaving' among the highlights.
