Review: Given the title, and artwork that pays homage to the 'House Sound of Chicago' comps, you'd be forgiven for expecting this to be an album full of slavish recreations of late 80s acid house - but you'd be wrong. That's not to say there aren't plenty of 808/909 beats and squelchin' 303s contained herein, because there are - in places. But 'Jack-Ish' has far more to offer than simple pastiche, because there are also nods to the rave era (check the vox on 'Monster Munch'), to the speed garage days (Theo Walbeck's opener even biting Jodeci's 'Freak 'N' You', the MK mix of which helped birth the style), to Chicago's Cajual/Relief-led 'second wave' (Cuthead's 'Fuck That Shit') and more. This is a love letter, in other words, not to a brief moment 35 years ago, but to house music more generally in all its wild, wonderful jacking glory. And you need it in your life.

Review: Having previously had "The Bells" remixed by Girl Unit among others, Welsh funky merchants CRST return with a lean, stripped down VIP of "The Bells" which absolutely smacks you round the face with raw, focused club energy. With pitch perfect snares and motorik chords they really keep the funk fresh on a tune that clearly going to get a lot of love in the next few months. "Saturday Tingz" is just as vital - sampling some huge female vocals and chopping them over a highly percussive beat which CRST skilfully reduce down to a minimal stomp for breakdowns. Highly recommended!

Review: An all-star cast (by Local Talk standards, at least) has been assembled for this latest trip into '90s house territory. C.R.S.T's opener "Monster Munch", was produced in collaboration with Welsh house wizard The Organ Grinder, and bumps along impressively on a bed of skipping garage beats and vocal cut-ups. Chesus's "Newark", meanwhile, doesn't hide its US garage roots, being dominated by the twin attractions of rolling organs and female yelps. The vocal cut-ups on C.R.S.T's "Life" recall Basement Jaxx's "Fly Life", while the music sounds like a mid-'90s New Jersey garage dub. Chesus closes proceedings with "Life", a delicious disco/house fusion brimming with sinewy strings and Teddy Pendergrass-ish vocalizing.
