Review: There's a reason that Midnight Riot's eponymous compilations frequently charge to the top of the Juno Download charts. Put simply, they never disappoint. This ninth installment sticks to the now tried-and-tested formula - house-friendly re-edits and originals from across the disco, boogie, soul and funk spectrum - but predictably hits the spot throughout. As usual, there's a bonus mix - this time put together by globe-trotting scalpel jockey Rayko - and tracks come from both label regulars ('80s Child, Ziggy Phunk, Chewy Funk) and an impressive array of new or unheralded talents. It's in the latter category that you'll find some of the most impressive fare - see Phil Jaimes deliciously Balearic "Nowhere To Hide" and Cosmocomics' kaleidoscopic synth-funk jam "Mary Jane" - though the standard remains pleasingly high throughout.

Review: Scalpel fiend Justin Green dons his GG Edits guise for another outing on Midnight Riot, some 10 months on from his last outing. As usual, there's much for dusty-fingered crate diggers to enjoy. Opener "Never Danced" is an undulating, string-laden disco singalong, with Green getting just the right balance between the bold vocals and extended instrumental passages. "So In Love" is a loose, baggy and hugely enjoyable extension of a familiar soul classic, while "Don't You Want Me (Minnie Extension)" takes a trip into the world of rare groove and '80s soul, adding some booming - if pleasingly swinging - percussion to cater for the needs of 21st century dancefloors.
