CLUB E.A.S.E. - #2
Whodunit - (6:17) 112 BPM
Review: George Evelyn serves up the second volume in what we're told will be an ongoing series of EPs featuring "club music made for basements and afterhours". Up first is '1More Tune', which has a vaguely Latin, carnival-esque kind of feel, but is driven along by a hefty, heavily treated bassline that whump-whump-whumps along throughout. Chuck in some acid-fried synth freakery towards the end and asses will shake to this for sure! It's accompanied by 'Whodunnit?', a slower-moving jam that's aptly titled, rocking as it does something of a film noir vibe with its tension-building horns and eerie pianos.

Shout Out! To Freedom...
Wonder (feat Haile Supreme & Shabaka Hutchings) - (6:32) 115 BPM
Played by: AFTERLIFE, Alanna Lyes
Review: Veteran British downtempo producer George Evelyn aka Nightmares On Wax presents his ninth studio album on the esteemed Warp Records. Featuring 15 new tracks, on Shout Out! To Freedom...' Evelyn encouraged all the guest artists to 'make music inspired by what freedom means to them'. Some of the highlights include the evocative Balearic beats of "3D Warrior" (feat Shabaka Hutchings & Haile Supreme & Wolfgang Haffner), the dope urban swagger of "Wikid Satellites" featuring neo-soul artist Greentea Peng, and the jazzy sunset feels of "Isolated" (feat Pip Millett & Sabrina Mahfouz).

Wonder (feat Shabaka Hutchings) - (6:32) 115 BPM
Review: Following from Nightmares On Wax's Imagineering single the legendary Warp artist follows suit with Wonder, a two track trip diving through soundsystem filter funk and crestfallen electro-jazz. Featuring the golden vocals of Haile Supreme across both tracks, "Own Me" sees the artist's voice morph between half Ol' Dirty Bastard Wu-Tang sample & half cosmic soul train instrument. Backed by heavily dubbed-out beats, peaking filter switches and dope horns, Nightmares On Wax looks to textural love ballads in "Wonder", also featuring Haile Supreme and British jazz saxophonist Shabaka Hutchings in effect. New school jazz meets future pop.

Dreddoverboard (Funk mix) - (6:43) 114 BPM
Review: An album that's as ubiquitous in people's record shelves as Anthony Kiedis' Scar Tissue biography is for people bookshelves, Smoker's Delight has been the definitive Nightmares On Wax record since its original release 25 years ago. Regarded as one of the finest trip-hop albums of all time, this 20-track anniversary edition sees the inclusion of new and largely unheard material in the jazzy beatdown vibes of "Aquaself", and dubbed out piano loops of "Ascend". Extra bonus material includes a funk version of lounge time hit "Dreaddoverboard", and a live recording of Nightmares On Wax's all time classic "Night's Introlude". Take another hit.

Ground Floor
Nightmares On Wax - "Reclaim The Balcony" (feat Wolfgang Haffner) - (6:43) 118 BPM
Review: Nightmares on Wax main man George Evelyn cut his teeth at soul and funk all-dayers in the 1980s - he was a teenage breakdancer - before falling in love with house and techno. Both of these aspects of his heritage are reflected on Ground Floor, which he's trailed as an attempt to go back to his roots. The EP opens with the stretched-out, soulful deep house of "World Inside", which not only boasts a wonderful vocal from Andrew Ashong, but also snappy, dub-influenced rhythm patterns reminiscent of some of his early bleep productions. That aspect of his career is also referenced on "Reclaim The Balcony", a breakbeat-driven house bumper that boasts some seriously heavy sub, and electro-tinged wobbler "Dirty Triumphant", which was co-produced by Acid Mondays.

Review: It would be fair to say that Studio K7 has pulled off something of a coup in getting Kenny Dixon Jr. to agree to compile and mix the latest installment in the long-running DJ Kicks series. It is, somewhat remarkably, the legendary Detroiter's first commercially available mix set. This triple-vinyl edition features a whopping 19 cuts - all in unmixed form - from the 30 track mix. Musically, it's a blazed, jazzy, soulful and groovy as you'd expect, and contains a mixture of downtempo beats, nu-jazz and hazy house cuts from the likes of Flying Lotus, Dopehead, Peter Digital Orchestra, Nightmares On Wax, Soulful Session and Lady Alma.

NOW Is The Time (Deep Down Edition)
Dreadoverboard - (5:48) 115 BPM
Review: Amazingly, it's 25 years since George 'E.A.S.E' Evelyn and then production partner Kevin 'Boy Wonder' Harper sat down and recorded "Dextrous", their monstrous, bleep-era classic on Warp. A quarter of a century later, Evelyn is still going strong, though the grooves have mellowed a lot in that time. Here, Warp celebrate the producer's epic career with a much-deserved retrospective. All the familiar favourites are present, from the rush-inducing thrill of early dancefloor smashers "I'm For Real" and "Aftermath", to the sinewy downtempo goodness of the decidedly Balearic "Les Nuits", the blazed hip-hop dub of "195 Llbs" and stoner soul of "70s 80s". This version also includes a number of exclusive remixes, with names like JD Twitch, Special Request, LFO, Morgan Geist and Loco Dice putting their own spin on this classic material.
