Review: You're only five years old once, so why not celebrate in style? And here Warrington lad Danny Worrall's disco and re-edits label Masterworks Music do just that, with an anniversary collection packing a whopping 50 back catalogue nuggets. You'll excuse us the full track-by-track, then, but suffice to say that this is the label that helped launch the careers of Dr Packer and Natasha Kitty Katt, both of whom feature here, and with names like Ziggy Phunk, Rayko, Alkalino, Chuggin' Edits and Fabiolous Barker also on bill, you should already have a pretty good idea what to expect. Classy stuff all round, and a great VFM package - here's to five more years!

Review: Masterworks Music's final outing of 2018 offers an introduction to a brand new artist: Italian twosome Ankle release. The duo has plenty of experience as DJs, though this is the first time they've shared any of their studio endeavours with the public. They start in impressive fashion via the pandemonium-creating Fender Rhodes riffs and swirling disco grooves of "What's The Plan", before slamming down a similarly delay-laden but far more bass-heavy disco-house workout (the fine "Fire In Me"). The fast-rising duo switches focus to the 1980s on the cheery electrofunk fun of "Panache", while closing cut "Room For Everyone" sees them wrap colourful synths and jaunty TB-303 style acid lines around a stop-start disco groove.
