Review: Serial collaborator Scruscru is at it again, this time hooking up with French beat-maker Jehan and fellow Russian rising star Meowsn for a first joint full-length excursion. As you'd hope and expect, 'JSM' does a great job in combining their various talents, influences and individual production styles. Across the course of a hugely entertaining album, the trio shuffles between crackly and jazzy instrumental hip-hop beats ('Love Letter for Meowsn', 'Scru's Hustle'), sample-heavy jazz-house ('Classique'), bumpin' peak-time goodness ('Doin Haws'), deeply soulful dancefloor loveliness ('Every Single Day'), woozy US style deep house ('Le Jazz, Le Rhythme') and funk-fuelled, dust-laden breakbeat house niceness ('Be With Me').

Review: A fresh label from Russian DJ/producer Anton Bogomolov aka Scruscru (SlothBoogie Jamz/Omena) with his friends on board for four DJ friendly tools for your pleasure. Inaugurating Scruniversal we have the label boss himself in collaboration with BR Selecta on the late-night mood music of 'Feel This Lov' followed by the deep and dusty poolside vibe of Replika's 'Hot Shapes' that's just perfect for the sunset. Then there's the boompty bounce of Sweet Fruity Brunch's 'Basement Vibe' followed by the glassy-eyed and bittersweet 'S' by Meowsn.

Review: To celebrate notching up ten years in the game, London blog and party-turned-record label SlothBoogie has decided to offer-up their most ambitious release to date: an epic collection of previously unheard cuts from a mixture of imprint regulars and like-minded friends. There's naturally plenty to set the pulse racing throughout, with highlights including the sparkling jazz-funk-meets-deep house sunshine of Levan's "U R Beautiful In The Face", the deep, breakbeat-driven dreaminess of Philippa's "That's What I Mean By Free", the piano solo-heavy disco-house bump of Leatherette's "Your Love", and the dub disco-meets-acid house heaviness of "Rewind Run" by Pablot. Throw in similarly impressive contributions from Kassian, Luvless, Casino Times and Soul Wun (the classic jazz-house of "Thank You, St Germain") and you have a must-have collection.
