Review: Whenever we see the sounds of Breakbeat Paradise arriving in the store, we know for a fact that we are going to be in for a good time, especially when they revisit a series as exciting as today's. The fourth edition of their 'Breakin The Riddim' is a gem-laden experience, packed with wicked creations from the likes of BadboE, Funkin Basstards, DJ Clairvo FunkinRight & more, all adding their own unique approach to the table and giving this collection a seriously flavorsome feel. The whole project just exhales creativity in sonic design, from the rootsy overhauls of Jayl Funk's 'Come On Little Girl' to the more funkadelic refills of Pecoe's 'Bring Your Body. The variation really makes this collection special, with our favorites including TowlieDJ's vibrant overhaul of Cutty Ranks with 'Limbs', next to Sonale's LFO driven 'Exodus' redesign, taking classic Bob Marley vocals and twisting them into something completely new!

Review: As ever with the legendary Breakbeat Paradise crew, we are tuned in for another super exciting project as they amass a fantastic roster for the third edition of their 'Breakin The Riddem' compilation series. We see originals from the likes of Venture, Capital, Liberty Chaps, Mined & Forest and more, showcasing a vivid range of dancehall and reggae inspired reworks. For us the stand outs on this one come from firstly Ocelus, who provides a super clean dubwise wave on 'Steppas', along with Pecoe who switches the script up entirely for a grizzly breakbeat anthem entitled 'Bad Man Fiyah'.

Review: There is no question at this point that Breakbeat Paradise is one of the most consistent label projects currently operating within independent electronic music. After a run of highly enjoyable releases towards the end of 2018, we welcome them back to releasing with a fantastic collaboration project between DJ Clairvo and The Aliens of Denmark, who we must say, make quite the team. We begin with the classic Sleng Teng bassline running riot on 'Somerset Melodies' before 'An Evening With Tony' lets loose an array of twisted bass sounds alongside some classic vocal samples. Following this, the dubwise melodics of 'Mirage Of Troopers Hill' take the reigns, before finishing up on the bubbling harmonies and stripped back drum work of 'One For Stokes Croft'. Charming stuff.

Review: For this highly anticipated second volume of 'Breakin The Riddim', Breakbeat Paradise have got an awesome tracklisting and roster together to showcase the fusion of dub and funk into breakbeat compositions. For us the immediate highlights have to be the the reggae infused design of 'Meditation' from Leygo, the smooth patois vocal presence and from Richard Smiths on 'Fire Sound' from Illgorhythms and of course the crunchy drum design and writhing bass tones on Pecoe's 'Boom'. Overall this is a great compilation, showcasing a vast array of styles without diverting from the common theme of the project.

Katakana Edits Vol 51EXCLUSIVE
Played by: Spinforth
Review: This Ep is fun, zany and full of funky Latin flavours. 'Hello Everybody' starts proceedings in a wacky way, with its laid back samba style beat, the bassline's slow moving bouncy vibe and the crazy vocal, it could be the soundtrack stoner flick. 'Que Tu Balies' is so cool, mixing the funkiness breakbeat with the soulfulness of disco and the sexiness of Latino, this is a winner. 'Limbo Dance' is an infectious little number with whistles and shakers, it will certainly whisk you away to a sunny Brazilian carnival, but the manipulated vocal and oddly pitched sub bring a a sinister edge. 'No Somos' is the funkiest of the bunch, with a sexy vocal, jazzy piano and cow bell. So. Much. Fun!

Review: Greece's Quincy Jointz selects the sixth volume of his concept Lime Sorbet compilation. Lime Sorbet was always the compilation series for open minded music fans and so is also volume six. From sunshine vibes, funky grooves and breakbeat through to house or downbeat. Once again Quincy selects a special mixture of unreleased music by well-known and upcoming artists. Block rockin' beats courtesy of Valique with "Long Journey" (Quincy Jointz remix) will sort you for deep funk, cheeky crooner Louie Austen is back since the electroclash days with the sleazy soul of of "Make You Move" (Quincy Jointz remix) and Stuttgart's Tobe Tronic serves up the deep, breaks driven nu-disco of "Night Drums".

Katakana Edits Vol 46EXCLUSIVE
Review: It's number 46 in the Katakana Edits series, and we got The Worldstylers alongside DJ Claire to lay down some hybrid breakbeats for ya! "Rub A Duby Stylee" is just pure fun, a tune that manages to blend dancehall together with disco and nu-skool breaks, but "Be Bam Pop" isn't exactly far behind on the freak-o-meter thanks to its jazzy nuances and merry-go-round melodies. "Space Frequency" is the final slice of oddball beats, a beat-heavy, mid-tempo breakbeat scorcher that would certainly get some attention from the likes of peeps like The Scratch Perverts.

Party Breaks Vol 10EXCLUSIVE
Played by: Clairvo (MustBeat), Roast Beatz, Jayl Funk, Juno Recommends Breakbeat, TOSSES, TURNTILL, BRENDON P, Funky Boogie Brothers
Review: Hot on the heels of Tru Thoughts' recent Tasty Beats compilation, the firmly party orientated label has rustled up a tenth instalment of their Party Breaks series. Now it's time to shake it up at every house party you can find this summer! Highlights include Bang N Mash's funky old skool Eric B mash-up "I Got Soul", Chudy's "So What?" which intertwines the Tom Tom Club and Destiny's Child to sizzling effect and finally DJ Clairvo who fuses big beat, ragga and vintage organ stabs on "Here Me Now All Massive". Boom!

Review: Originally starting as a grunge rock DJ 20 years ago, DJ Clairvo now finds himself a leading figure on the European funk-breaks scene - quite a leap indeed! What this proves of course, apart from the fact the grunge ain't no good to dance to, is that this guy has a wide appreciation of all kinds of music. Here he rustles up 6 Gallic-themed gems, highlights of which include the pacey flutes, funk and fizzy hip-hop of "Bounce & Shake On Ledy Rollin", the retro electro grind of "Vert Galant Groove" and the celebratory boogie of "Party With The Bercy Posse".

Katakana Edits Vol 37EXCLUSIVE
Review: Clarivo and Ivan's Hungary/Germany dub connection continues with another series of surgically edited funk-ups. Lee Perry enjoys the treatment on two occasions: "Soul Man" gets a bold wonky swing, echoed guitars and full focus on the golden harmonies while "Justice To The People" gets a chuggy rub with big dubby FX on the vocal elements. Elsewhere The Originals' "Got To Be Irie" is shaken with a mild lovers rock 80s feel, underpinned by some strange stretchy bass textures. Finally Black Uhuru's "What Is Life" gets massaged with a neat dab of disco. Consummate.

Katakana Edits Vol 36EXCLUSIVE
Review: Katakana have thrown us a bit of a curveball for this, their 36th volume of their Edits series, with DJ Clairvo and Dr Ivan lending a reggae-tinged twist to proceedings. Opener "El Diablo" has a big beat swing with some digi-reggae vibes, "The Living Dread" is synthy, cut-up dancehall, "Stay Dread Now" ups the heavy riddims and "Grumbling" is a brass-laden feel-good closer.

The Latin Leaks Vol 1EXCLUSIVE
Played by: Spinforth, Clairvo (MustBeat), Luis Machuca, Jayl Funk, Savages Y Suefo, Juno Recommends Breakbeat, Galletas Calientes, Richard Rossa, Breakbeat Paradise Recordings, Funky Boogie Brothers
Review: Should you want to turn your place into a swinging cantina let Beatnik City's first release of The Latin Leaks be your soundtrack, and slam those tequila's to "Uhh! Ahh". There's some sampled Wu Tang thrown in among a clamour of drums in "Shimmy Cumbia", while tempos are lowered in "Lift Ma Soul". For some electro-swing vibes check out "Golden Boy" and get tropical on "Real Smooth". Consider your next fiesta sorted!

Review: Unhappy with the amount of re-edits and mash-ups in the nu-disco scene, Timewarp are doing something about it! That 'something' is the Lemon Sorbet series of mixes curated by the one and only Quincy Jointz. Featuring some of the finest original compositions, many until now unreleased, from leading nu funk artists. Highlights of volume 5 include the retro new jack urban beats of Jointz own Flashbaxx remix, Ashley Slater (Freak Power)'s low-slung and slinky Al Green cover "Stay Together" and the cool, slap-bass heavy, Latino disco jam "New York To Brasil" by DJ Colour C2. Who said originality was dead.

Review: Morlack assembles yet another distinguished troupe for his latest label collection. All exclusives, all funky, all guaranteed to smash your party's trousers to pieces, highlights include the Parliament-level squidgy funk on DJ Clairvo's "I Like To Like It", DiscObeta's disco-flexing fix of Redman on "Get It On", Mako & Mr Bristow's super nerdy homage of criminally overlooked hip-hop classics "Re-Freshed Rhymes" and Itchy Bastards' guitar-slapping glitch space disco breaker "Let Yourself Go". Morlack has the honour of closing the show, and he does so with a euphoric twist on an A-Ha classic. Incredible stuff, it needs to be heard to be believed.

Tasty Beats Vol 3EXCLUSIVE
Played by: Spinforth, Chudy, Boogieburg, Trotter, Juno Recommends Breakbeat, Breakbeat Paradise Recordings, Tom Showtime, Relative Dimensions
Review: Every now and then, in between artist EPs, Tru Funk knock out a mini compilation of bootlegs where the original artists get spliced together like Frankenstein's monsters of funk. Highlights of this five tracker include Tom Showtime's fusing of Khia's famously filthy My Neck, My Back with some of Snoops' Gangsta Luv on "Gangsta Lick", Phibe's totally eccentric party smasher "Dig My Bounce" (which mixes Missy Elliot with No Diggity) and Spox's electro funk monster "Roses" which beefs up Haywood's '80s classic of the same name.

Review: This latest offering from the shady Katakana Edits crew makes their previous offerings seem positively anemic by comparison. Boasting a whopping 22 tracks, it's almost certainly guaranteed to provide decent ammo for every house party imaginable. Highlights include the chugging electro dub sing-along "Shakka Boom" by DJ Clairvo, the p-funk meets disco of vibes of "Miami Freaks" by Lee Zamah and Timewrap's pumped up version of The Velvettes's perennial Motown classic, "He Was Really Sayin' Something".

Review: The Katakana edit express thunders on with their 11th installment of party breaks. This time the overwhelming vibe is of retro soul, jazz and swing. The latter is handled with a Latin influence on "I'll Be A God Man" and "Lovely TV" by DJ Clairvo, while the amazingly-named DJ Oli Garch provides a breaky, swingy version of jazz standard "Summertime. Lastly Timewrap opts for some Cuban-tinged grooves on "Miami", as well as a cheeky retweak of The Velvelettes' Motown classic "He Was Really Saying Something".
