Review: It seems that the guys at Legere are really getting into this trawling through the vaults shizzle, as here we have yet another themed compilation. It's certainly a good way to demonstrate the breadth of the label's scope, and after recent downbeat and disco orientated collections, this album explores the variety of remixes that have passed through their doors over the years. Highlights include the crunchy, breaky electro of Malente's take on "Another Man", the glorious vintage disco abandon of "Dazz (Patchworks remix)" and the lazy, retro hip-hop funk of "Interlude (Pitch & Scratch mix)".
Cat Whip (Renegades Of Jazz "Def Six" mix) - (3:59) 129 BPM
Red Stripe (Paprika Thirsty Bossa Re-Bump) - (4:48) 103 BPM
Review: Last time we checked, you could get arrested for certain kerbside collections. Jokes like that probably didn't occur to Brisbane jazz-funk outfit Kerbside Collection when recording this debut album. Largely because they were escaping the 2011 freak floods that devastated their home town. However they rose above the odds and laid these tracks down the old fashioned way (recorded all together in a room- warts and all) including a gritty jazz funk George Benson cover ("P Park"), a jazz/reggae number ("Red Stripe") and a cool jazz dance cover of a John Coltrane classic ("Impressions").
