Review: Jerome Derradji's excellent Still Music sub-label, Stilove4music, continues to trickle its stunning back catalogue into the digital domain for the first time, and this week it's the turn of Mancunian deep haus don Trus'me. This was the 12" that first turned the world's gaze onto the Prime Numbers boss's brilliant knack for jazzy, sample based house (along with the now legendary Nards CD sampler). And it's "Nards" that opens this release, with the tense strings, funkafied bassline and sultry vocal snatches sounding as brilliant today as they did upon first release in 2007. Add to this the languid title track - predating the current vogue for slo-mo house by some 18 months - and rolling groove of "Good God", featuring a vocal sample of the legendary Teddy Pendergrass, and you have an absolutely essential release.

Review: Marco Dionigi's productivity knows no bounds. Having released more albums last year than some world-renowned bands manage in an entire career, the Italian continues to amaze with his stunning work rate. Like many of his previous sets, Alpha 96 features an analogue-heavy mix of wobbly cosmic disco, shirts-off Italo, wonky acid and curious late night house, all themed around a particular idea or subject. This time round, it's extraterrestrial activity and manned space flights, though in truth most of his material is fairly space-inclined. Check it!

Review: There are two possible explanations for Marco Dionigi's impressive productivity. Firstly, he works very quickly. Secondly, he has secretly bred a super-race of genetically modified monkeys and locked them in a cellar with a bunch of old synthesizers, a Mac and a copy of Logic. While the latter is highly improbable, it would explain the Dr Who-does-Italo Disco vibe of this latest 10-track missive. Like the best of Dionigi's original compositions, the best cuts here sound like they were beamed down from the stars, possibly by a man in a tweed blazer and bowtie who cures all of the universe's problems with a flashing screwdriver and a bunch of tired one-liners. Or cyber-monkeys.

Review: Fans of one-man production whirlwind Marco Dionigi will no doubt be thrilled with this new 13-track feast of compositions. For the converted, there's plenty to gorge on, from the gritty Hendrix licks and analogue beats of "At Dinner (Nu Disco Mix)" to the clattering Italo-disco stylings of "Dancing Days" and aggressive disco-house stomp of the title track. There's also a pleasantly percussive foray into marimba-disco ("Bring You Joy"), a trio of handy beats tracks, and a midtempo cosmic disco cut featuring delightfully Euro-centric synths and sounds ("Sun & Fun").

Review: A new five-track EP here from the incredibly prolific - he released five albums last year alone! - Marco Dionigi, a 30-year veteran of the Italian scene and regular Daniele Baldelli collaborator. Unhurried opener 'ARM & The Magic Tree' finds Dionigi's Italo roots showing, as does the slightly pacier 'Beside The River', while 'The Magic Jungle' is a slice of tribal deepness that'd be arguably more at home on house than disco floors. The latter then gets a funked-up remix that for this reviewer is the standout, before the EP's completed by the slo-mo, 303-dripping chug of 'Acid Tucano'.

Review: For the last five or six years, Marco Dionigi has been a one-man cosmic disco production line. Even so, it's still remarkable that Banglafunk is the Italian producer's 23rd release of 2016. The six tracks here are notably funkier, and more informed by disco-funk than many of his releases. Check, for example, the elastic bass guitar lines, fluttering electronics and Indian style vocal samples of "Advika", or the alternately dreamy and surging title track, "Banglafunk"; both are amongst his most disco-centric productions of recent times. We're also really enjoying the post-punk disco dub flex of "Lost In The Jungle", and the percussive, pitched-down mysticism of "Summertime in Bangladesh".

Review: Cosmic hero Marco Dionigi must have found something out in space that has increased his creativity to that beyond us mere mortals. He's been knocking out up to two hefty EPs per month (and that's not even including his long players!), and shows no signs of stopping. And if it's working, then why not? Here we have yet more quality productions - "Base Terra" touches on bouncey but moody electro-disco, "Water Drops" toys with operatic/Gregorian vocals, "Mission For The Nature" is dreamy downtempo stuff, "Another Day On Planet Earth" is pulsating peak timer (for Dionigi anyway) and "Strong Strategy", with its suspended chiming melodies, is probably our favourite.

Review: Italian producer Dionigi has in the past flirted with tech-house and Italo - so what's in store for this release? The title track sounds like the Quantistic boss has been listening to late '90s/early '00s minimal house, but then he unexpectedly covers it in an acidic cloak and hushed vocals. The 'acid mix' is even more 303-heavy and is combined with a bruising bass, but it's what he does on the other tracks that really impresses. "Deep Bass Out Of Space" features a ponderous vocal intoning the track's title and a rumbling bass, "Connection" assimilates heavy metal power chords into its drum-heavy groove and "Air 44" is an easy listening affair.
