Review: For the third release on his fast-rising Childhood label, German producer Muallem has turned to Colin McBean AKA Mr G. As you'd expect given his impeccable track record over the last three decades, The Forced Force Is Not The True Force - McBean's seventh full-length excursion and first for three years - is really rather good. It sees him draw inspiration not from the tough but funky tech-house he's known for, but rather a combination of warehouse-ready, rave-era house music and vintage electro. The result is a superb set of spacey, sweaty dancefloor treats - with a handful of contemplative ambient moments thrown in - which flit between peak-time ready energy, mid-set weightiness, and the kind of saucer-eyed slow jams that sound superb during warm-up sets. Intergalactic, retro-futurist bliss.

Review: Don't Be Afraid return with the second chapter in a double compilation, celebrating a decade at the cutting edge of electronic music in the UK and beyond. '10.02' sees Semtek's label delving deeper into a fertile underground, further connecting the sense of musical curiosity and willingness to experiment that's been implicit in DBA's namesake from the beginning. Highlights come from Motor City legend Scott Ferguson (Ferrispark) with the knackered mood music of "This Is What I Love to Do", legend Mr G goes back to the Metalbox days on the tough, steely and funked-up house of "Birthday Jam", through to moments of sublime and life-affirming deepness as heard on Pablo R. Ruiz's "El Sol Se Acerca" or Minos's dubby "Laminar Flow" respectively.

Review: Mr G goes full alien in 2020 with the Extraordinary Abilities EP; a six pack beaming down all the necessary rhythms and drums tracks you would want from the man. All roads lead to the thudding beats of "Late Nite @ Montecello" with its titillating vocal hooks and flexed basslines mirrored by a dubbed out version in "Gathering NYC". Warm basslines and familiar no-nonsense kick drums are the name of the game in "The Made" with stepping breaks and club basslines ruling the day in "Embassy". Jazzed up ambient house interludes in "SoundBath@The Loft" with more beatless cosmiq in the otherworldly "LDBPT3". Phone Home.

Review: Mr G's latest high quality outing was made in cahoots with fellow British techno veteran Duncan Forbes, a friend and former Spooky member (alongside Sasha's go-to engineer Charlie May). Forbes offers up two fresh reworks of Mr G Cuts: a rolling, drum-laden deep house take on "Hip-Shaker" rich in hand percussion, hazy female vocal samples and spacey electronic motifs, and a fuzzy, mid-tempo revision of "Flex D's" that peppers a druggy groove with spacey electro synths and eyebrow-raising French spoken word snippets. Best of all, though, is the duo's collaborative studio jam "D&G Throwdown", a deep but percussively pulverizing techno stomper that benefits greatly from hazy riffs, echoing percussion hits and mind-altering sub-bass thrusts.

Review: Global Underground's Nubreed series has a huge amount of kudos, having brought respected DJs like Lee Burridge, Steve Lawler and Danny Howells to attention during the early 00s with a series of iconic mixes. Although it was on hold for much of the second decade of this millennium, it has been successfully resurrected and now gives the same platform to Theo Kottis. In keeping with its usual format, this instalment sees the Beautiful Strangers boss explore a range of styles and sound across two mixes. Accordingly, his selection ranges from Gigi Masin's melodic piano composition, "Maja", to the Mountain People's sensuous deep house "La Onda", taking in some underground classics like DJ Assassin's garage/house hybrid "Face in the Crowd" as well as left of centre oddities like The Horn's "Villager". It's a fitting testament to the Nubreed aesthetic.

Tony Humphries / Various
Review: The choice of Tony Humphries to mix Running Back's first label compilation is a significant one. Getting his big break in the early '80s as an understudy for the legendary Shep Pettibone's Kiss FM show, Humphries went on to become one of the defining DJs of house music's formative years, with residencies at New Jersey's Club Zanzibar and London's Ministry of Sound. His previous mixes illustrate his continuing ability to bridge dance music's past and present and his new one for Gerd Janson's imprint will mark its fifteenth anniversary. It is a timely reminder of what has made the Frankfurt powerhouse remain on many favourite label lists for over a decade. It's a mix of golden oldies and recent classics alike: from Todd Terje's smash hit from several years ago "Ragysh" and the anthemic "The Voice From Planet Love" by Precious System, through to more recent bombs. Two by Running back alumnus Shan ("Bassline Party"/"Work It") and the legendary Mr G's Motor City ode "Ben & Gerd" (Killin It M Day).
