Review: Next up on Cuttin' Headz is a fine club release from Sorley, who previously released material on Lee Foss' Repopulate Mars and the Saved imprint. Teaming up with Goux on the title track, Sorley takes inspiration from classic US house: tribal percussion and horn stabs are fused using vivid filters and rolling snares. Against this backdrop, Goux delivers a cheeky, breathy vocal performance. "Little Secrets" also features a contribution from Goux, but this time Sorley draws from the primal jack of Chicago house to frame her flirtatious performance. The release also features a robust, percussive take on "Little Secrets" from Hot Creations regular Michael Jansons.
Review: Midnight Riot serve up some contemporary disco/disco-house grooves that are sure to find favour at the likes of Glitterbox and Horse Meat Disco. In its Original form, 'Groove It' has a summery, mid-00s Hed Kandi kinda feel. Yam Who? then steps up with a Studio 54 Tribute Vocal Mix which, true to form, is somehow altogether more sumptuous and luxuriant without actually being that radically different, and which comes accompanied by a matching instrumental. Finally, Rocoe funks things up considerably on a remix that's driven by a phat bassline, wukka-wukking geetar and rare groove-style, siren-like horns.
