Review: European nu-jazz band Club Des Belugas - with a storied history on Chinchin Records - take up residence on the somewhat mysterious Glamjazz label. Be they an orchestra, sextet, live band or in the studio, the multi-talented cast all meet on a sound somewhere between lounge, swing, Latin flair and American black soul of the fifties, sixties and seventies. This album in particular takes reference from that classic space pop sound of the '50s in "Set Fire To It All" - featuring that classic quote 'how to avoid difficult situations' - next to a cavalcade of big band horns in numbers like "Quitting The Bad Habits". With flurries of jazz-funk next to more mediterranean sessions in "Casually", find clubbier vibes in "Hazy (Club Des Belugas remix)" alongside full musical soundtracks in others like "Don't Stumble". An album that really touches on that cool Morcheeba sound that's in tune with a fanfare of global jazz.

Review: German funk-soul-Latin-jazz combo Bahama Social Club team up with Ethiopian-Cuban vocalist Arema Arega here, and the result is an EP that's purpose-built for sashaying around outdoor terraces as sweltering days turn inexorably into steamy nights. Three mixes to choose from: in its Original form, 'Mango' is a lounge-y, Latin-y soul/disco cut, the Club Des Belugas Bossa Remix takes us down the bossa nova route and TheEEs Reggae Mix similarly does what it says on the tin. We suspect the latter rub is likely to pick up the most non-specialist plays, while the other two are sure to find favour with the likes of Peterson, Scruff and Snowboy.

Review: Nelly Simon and ChinChin cofounder Juergen Kausemann's ZoulZoulectric let rip with their second long player and once again it's a vibrant, far reaching affair that digs deep into the timeless musical melting pot to create a powerful alluring fusion of funk, jazz, swing and all things in between. A party from start to finish, highlights include the smoky dulcets and late night upbeat momentum of "He Killed Capoty", the ballroom swoons and toe to toe duet of "Too Late To Tango", the delicate introspection and gentle jacks of "Bad Days", a brand new sleazy funk take on their awesome Nancy Sinatra cover "These Boots Were Made For Walking" and the loose limbed feels and woozy horns of "Black African Jack". Complete with a range of remixes, too, this is an exceptional sophomore that adds to their already strong funk cannon.

Review: German live ensemble, The Bahama Soul Club, recently released their 4th Long Player, Havana '58, where they paid homage to the 'tropical playground' that was Cuba in the 50s - a 'pleasure dome of sensual overload and rum-fuelled abandon' featuring wild showgirls, high stakes gambling and revellers including Marlon Brando, Ernest Hemingway, Frank Sinatra and J.F.K". Now its time for the remixes, and there's 18 of them! Artists as diverse as Smoove, Opopolopo and Postive Flow all contribute by adding funk, house and soul to all the Latin Jazz, Bossa and Boogaloo vibes goin' on.

Review: Hailing from Germany, The Bahama Soul Club are a sensational live act featuring a full 7-piece orchestra. Here on their 4th Long Player, Havana '58, they pay homage to the 'tropical playground' that was Cuba in the 50s - a 'pleasure dome of sensual overload and rum-fuelled abandon' featuring wild showgirls, high stakes gambling and revellers including Marlon Brando, Ernest Hemingway, Frank Sinatra and J.F.K. Over the course of 13 exotic tracks they take the listener on a free spirited ride through rumba, Latin Jazz, Soul, Bossa and Boogaloo (with a little sprinkling of dark and sensual Tiki and Exotica for good measure)

Review: A one-man powerhouse of studio funk, Adam Gibbons' Lack of Afro alias has amassed an enormous catalogue of remixes and rarities in a relatively short space of time. On this Freestyle compilation, some of his most dynamic funk, Latin and boogaloo-shaped makeovers are here to savour, such as his extension of the Hot 8 Brass Band's "It's Real" or the more disco-slanted rejig of Kraak & Smaak's "Squeeze Me".
