Review: Almost a decade after the label stopped releasing singles, Ianus71 returned earlier this year with a compilation of "timeless" gems from their small but perfectly formed back catalogue. This speedy sequel tidies up the rest of the story, showcasing vintage cuts from the imprint's small roster of artists, including founders System of Survival. There's plenty to set the pulse racing throughout, from the shuffling, sub-heavy UKG/tech-house fusion of System of Survival's 'Conquistadores' and the tipsy horns of Autre's sturdy 'Mismo', to the intoxicating tribal house hedonism of 'Avvocata' by Doslive, and the pleasingly dreamy dancefloor swell of Jose De Vina and Javi Murdok's fine rework of System of Survival's luscious 'Italia 90'.
Review: Gifted Culture collective announce the second jam session of an announced trilogy. GMI Jam Venice comes from the filth and the mug of the abandoned ex-industrial area in the outskirts of Venice in northern Italy. There, Autre and Two Thou invade Hawaiian Chips' state of the art studio, where all together ride '70s synthesizer rarities and try to domesticate the monstrous Yamaha CS 80 synth. This jam, inspired by the post-industrial Venetian scenario, dives between the dreams of archetypal electronic music and reminiscences of psychedelic progressive bands, giving birth to two long journeys ready to gently carry the dancefloor into the outer space.
