Review: Sub-urban's popular annual compilation series returns for an eleventh time, bringing with it 12 more slabs of dancefloor-focused goodness with the label's usual intergalactic, tech-tinged twist. It begins with a gorgeous slab of spoken-word sporing melodic electro deepness (Guri, Elder and Life on Planets' superb 'The Rhythm of Life') and ends with the twinkling piano motifs, shuffling grooves, soulful vocals and rubbery electronic bass of Lee Wilson and Emi CA's 'Empty'; in between, you'll find a fine blend of locked-in tech-house bump (Discuji's 'Octavia'), bouncy and ever-rising Afro-tech ('Wili' by Roman Jack, with its' jammed-out organ motifs and glistening jazz guitar), the spacey, hands-aloft vocal house loveliness of Round Shapes Triangles, Guri & Elder's 'Forever Young' (as remixed by label founder Sebas Ramis), and the lolloping, mid-tempo swell of Discuji's 'Space Is The Place'.
