Katakana Edits Vol 130EXCLUSIVE
Review: At the controls for Vol 130 in the 'Katakana Edits' series is Goji Berry, who returns to the stable after previously helming Vols 69 and 93 and appearing on several earlier editions. First to come under his scalpel is 'Going Back To My Roots': the track's perhaps best known to most via covers from Richie Havens, Odyssey or FPI Project, but it's Motown legend Lamont Dozier's 1977 original that gets the treatment here. That's followed by the raw, blistering funk of Rufus Thomas's 'Itch And Scratch' from 1972; put together, the two tracks add up to one small but perfectly formed package.

Katakana Crate DigginEXCLUSIVE
Played by: The Allergies, Valique, Craig Charles Funk And Soul, X-Ray Ted, J&M BROTHERS, Morlack, Disco Funk Spinner - D.F.S
Review: This decidedly epic collection marks Katakana Edits's first foray into the compilation market and is designed as a "best-of" style outing. It boasts 30 reworks, mash-ups, remixes and re-edits gleamed from the prolific imprint's first 50 singles. Naturally, club-ready material comes thick and fast, with a multitude of genres - think swamp funk, disco, dub disco, electrofunk, Italo-disco, hip-hop, reggae and dancehall - and wide variety of tempos represented. Naturally, some of the reworks tend towards the well known, though there are also plenty of rubs of lesser-known gems for those who want to dig deeper than familiar peak-time anthems. Most importantly, the standard remains impressively high throughout.

Katakana Edits Vol 50EXCLUSIVE
Played by: Stephen Richards (DiscoDaze)
Review: Congratulations to the Katakana Edits crew, who have now reached a half-century of releases. Their 50th EP of sneaky reworks boasts contributions not from familiar label favourites, but a couple of hitherto unseen debutants. SOKA takes top marks for opener "Happiness (Dirty Dub Redaction)", a brilliant dub disco style revision of a cheery disco anthem full of echoing vocal snippets, loose-limbed drum fills and what sound like backwards guitar solos. Soka's second contribution, "Baretta", sees the producer move further towards jazzy, funk-fuelled deep house territory via all manner of woodwind and brass solos, while Goji Berry's "Lay Me" is a sensual and eccentric chunk of slow motion disco sleaze.
