Review: Jamie 3:26 may have first found fame as a DJ, re-editor and remixer, but over the last few years he's delivered some killer original productions too - often in cahoots with collaborators. Chief amongst those is fellow Rotterdam resident Danou P, who fittingly features on two of the three tracks on show here. The pair begin in deliciously deep, spacey and loved-up form on 'Love Not', where drifting chords and gentle melodies rise above a bubby bassline, simmering synth-strings and tactile arpeggio lines, before opting for a Montana Sextet-goes-deep house flex on the funky brilliance of 'Earl Montana'. To round things off, the Chicagoan joins forces with the effervescent Mr Scruff on 'Scrubb It', a properly dubbed-out, analogue-rich chunk of proto-house packed to the rafters with mad noises, Latin percussion and wayward electronics.

Review: Way back in 1997 record collector, DJ and music writer, Jasper The Vinyl Junkie, curated BBE Music's second ever release: Stop & Listen Vol. II. With BBE celebrating 25 years in the game the label goes back to its roots by inviting JJ for another West end jazz beat special. With rarities and never before heard gems now cut for digital, Vinyl Junkie Thangs calls up all-time music heroes like Fred Wesley, The Fatback Band and DTrain's Hubert Eaves alongside lesser known artists like Exile One, Ashantis and Funkshone with "Spiritual Interlude II (The Heist)" a particular highlight. Featuring curious other Jasper joints from Basement Freaks, OPOLOPO, Jkriv & Free Magic and Mr Scruff, it ain't always a vinyl thang.

Review: Superlative MC hooks up with beat cutter and creative Mr Scruff in "Read All About It", a track set to sit alongside the likes of Swing Ting, Indigo and Malik Al Nasir, a spoken word artist once mentored by the late and legendary Gil Scot Herron. It comes together as part of an incentive by talent development platform and Manchester label & broadcaster Reform Radio. Via its Rhythm Lab department and the Co-Lab Theory incentive, this compilation pitches eight emerging artists with various industry mentors which in this instance rears the dubbed out, hip hop and grime-tinges of Mr Scruff's productions with the silver tongued, street smart knowledge of Superlative. Hear all about it!

Review: 2020 marks the 25th year of !K7's acclaimed DJ-Kicks series with Mr Scruff following contributions of late from Leon Vynehall, Laurel Halo, Peggy Gou and Kamaal Williams! Mr Scruff's adventures in sound brings to DJ-Kicks more than 30 tracks of wildly varying styles featuring highlighted music from Equiknoxx, Tiger, Errorsmith, Max Graef and Zongamin. Scruff brings to his edition an exclusive collaboration with CyberPunkJazz ("3001: A Space Disco Remix") and an unreleased track from Andy Ash to boot. Alexander Robotnik makes in there with the wild New York post-funk of "Love Supreme" alongside a heavy Tony Allen percussion session in "Gbedu B". DJ Nervoso for the win too!

Review: Mr Scruff's Friendly Bacteria album was something of a return to form; a sprawling, soul-flecked concoction full of broken beat, jazz, dub and classic house influences. Here, two of the album's highlights get the remix treatment. On the A, "We Are Coming" - a bumpin', basement-bothering bruk cut in its' original form - is turned into a warm and wide-eyed deep house shuffler by Berlin-based Max Graef. It's an excellent revision, which weaves the original samples and keys into a fuzzy, analogue-sounding groover. On the flip, Scruff himself extends and reworks "Feel Free", turning in a hazy nu-jazz rub built around rubbery double bass and snaking, muted horns.

Review: Culled from the tracklist of Mr Scruff's recent Friendly Bacteria long player, "Render Me" now has a chance to shine in the spotlight, and all beefed up for the dancefloor to boot. It's a pleasantly mixed bag of styles here, with Andres taking the tune into languid and smoothly jazzy shuffle-core, Scruff's own moody, organic 2-step re-tweak and best of all, Royalty and AD Bourke's widescreen electro-pop revision: a total bomb with extra Chicago house fizz for good measure.

Review: It's been some six years since Mr Scruff's last album, roughly the average length of one of his marathon DJ sets. Much has changed in the musical landscape since then, but the tea-loving Mancunian is still ploughing his own mixed-up, soul-influenced furrow. That means tracks that comfortably meld hip-hop, dub, jazz, dubstep, downtempo groovery and - most pleasingly - broken beat. It's actually the album's "bruk" moments - the Vanessa Freeman-voiced West London soul of "Come Find Me" and thrilling Robert Owens hook-up "He Don't", in particularly - that really set the pulse racing. Of course, confirmed fans will find plenty more to enjoy, from the baggy sweetness of "Render Me" to the classic Scruff-isms of "What", which sounds like something from his 1997 debut on Pleasure Music.

Review: Stockport's one-man-cottage industry, Mr Scruff is back with a new two-tracker on Ninja Tune, again complete with his own trademark cover illustrations. This time round, lead track "Be The Music" goes for a more 4/4 electro-disco sound than you might expect of Scruff - albeit stretched out into an eight minute workout complete with funk bass and hissy hi-hats. Second track, "Nervous Energy", is more what you might expect and features his trademark shuffley beats, analogue synths and quirky sounds left, right and centre!

Review: Tireless DJ he may be, but Andy 'Scruff' Carthy hasn't been all that prolific in the studio of late. This two-track single is his first release for some six months. He's clearly been listening to a lot of new music though, because "Feel It" in particular sounds very current. Combining his usual hip-hop influenced bounce and low-end flavour with vintage analogue bass, touchy-feely chords and old skool vocal samples, it's a slow 4/4 jam with a bit of wiggle around the hips. "Bounce" continues on a similar theme, wrapping Maurice Fulton/Boof style synths and pianos around a weighty midtempo house groove. Check it!
