Review: Brighter Days, a fixture in Amsterdam's nightlife since 2014, finds its essence beautifully captured in a curated compilation by resident DJs Kamma and Masalo for Rush Hour. The duo, celebrated for their positive and inclusive semi-regular party, has seamlessly translated the event's vibe into a musical journey. This compilation serves as a testament to their explorations, featuring a blend of slept-on and unreleased gems, including some of their own re-edits, while staying true to the event's sound and ethos. Much like the intimate dancing spaces Brighter Days is known for, the album presents an open-minded, club-friendly soundtrack that effortlessly connects crate-digging obscurities from various eras, fresh cuts, and unreleased tracks from local producers who have become staples on the Brighter Days dancefloors. The result is a cohesive musical experience that mirrors the spirit and diversity of this beloved Amsterdam institution.

Diving Into Minds
Diving Into Minds - (6:27) 125 BPM Hot
Double Spire - (6:24) 126 BPM
Review: Soichi Terada's surprise recent album on Rush Hour, Asakusa Light, was a joyous blast from the past - a set of luscious, musically rich deep house cuts that recalled the Japanese producer's now sought-after works of the 1990s. The two tracks showcased here started out as album tracks but have been completely re-imagined by Terada in collaboration with regular Jamie 3:26 collaborator - and confirmed Italo-disco enthusiast - Masalo. 'Double Spire (Club Mix)' offers the best of both producers' styles, with shimmering, intergalactic electronics and loved-up synth melodies rising above a vintage house beat and Italo-style synthesizer bassline. On 'Diving Into Minds (Club Mix)', the pair add a bit of extra low-end weight and percussive pressure to proceedings, resulting in an addictive blend of piano house pressure, tribal house grooves and enveloping, sunset-ready electronics.

New Dance
New Dance - (6:54) 121 BPM Hot
Cycles - (6:21) 122 BPM
Review: Originally only available as a 12" single that was only sold in Rush Hour's legendary Amsterdam store, Masalo's 2018 debut single has finally made it to digital download. Both tracks doff a cap towards the spacey and intergalactic end of the Italo-disco spectrum, with Masalo opting for unfussy drum machine rhythms and throbbing, arpeggio style basslines Opener "New Dance" is the more obviously disco-centric of the two tracks, with jaunty riffs, lilting synth-pop melodies and ricocheting, proto-house style drum fills rising above a suitably druggy groove. "Cycles", meanwhile, is a little deeper and even more intergalactic in tone, an effect emphasized via trippy vocal chants and crystalline lead lines that appear to drift across the universe.

Red Light
Red Light (original mix) - (7:32) 123 BPM Hot
Red Light (dub) - (6:22) 123 BPM
Review: Fresh from telling us to "Testify", Chicago's Jamie 3:26 and Amsterdam's Masalo collide once again for another absolute heater. Loopy, warm, soulful and charged with big organ blasts, this is less of a track and more of an instrumental hymn as strikes every side of you physically and mentally. Loaded with a dub mix for added deep mix pleasure. Being in the red has never felt so good.

Terrence Parker (Remixes)
Jamie 326 & Masalo - "Testify" - (7:24) 122 BPM
Art Of Tones - "I Just" - (7:27) 121 BPM Hot
Review: This two-tracker from Local Talk - originally released in limited numbers on vinyl - appears to be the result of some smart thinking on behalf of the Swedish label. It sees ordained minister and all-round Detroit house and techno legend Terrence Parker put his slant on two of the most gospel-influenced cuts in the imprint's sizeable back catalogue. Parker first works his magic on Jamie 326 and Masalo's "Testify", serving up a bouncy, all-action peak-time house rub full of crunchy Clavinet lines, bold piano riffs, heavy organ stabs and inspiring gospel vocal snippets. Arguably even better is the Detroiter's interpretation of Art of Tones' "I Just", which looks to classic piano house for inspiration with predictably fine results.

Testify/Can't U
Jamie 326 & Masalo - "Testify" - (8:16) 122 BPM Hot
Sameed - "Can't U" - (4:42) 123 BPM
Sameed - "Dusty Jazz" - (5:53) 120 BPM
Review: Since first dropping on wax in the autumn, this multi-artist affair has gone on to be one of Local Talk's most popular releases in years. It's easy to see why. Jamie 326 and Masalo's "Testify" is a fabulously urgent concoction - a low-sling, disco-tinged deep house bomb built around a restless rhythm track, impassioned, gospel style vocal snippets, and killer Clavinet lines. Sameed's dustier, sweatier "Can't U" offers a different slant on the same idea, offering a basement-bothering stomper that utilizes many of the same samples. Finally, the same artist delivers something looser in the shape of deep jazz-house jam "Dusty Jazz".
