Review: Four volumes in seven months... Actual Sounds are ruthlessly efficient when it comes to showering the scene with fresh booty-shaking bootlegs. And it's business as usual as we're thrown around by the limbs to a 28-track strong selection of wide-eared funk fusions that range from an uptempo breakbeat cut n' shut of Nina Simone ("Ooh Baby") to Brooklyn era block busters ("Down With The King") via classic rave-meets-early house mashery ("A Bigbeat Treat"). A bargain and banging - these booties are keepers.

Review: Years ago, if someone offered you some street jam you'd have said no; jams made of pavement and general dirt just don't make the cut for an all-star breakfast. Then Actual Sounds comes along and your understanding completely changes. Gone is the gritty, fag butty, exhaust pipey grime and in comes the royal block-rocking fodder from some of Actual Sounds' finest funky upstarts. Comprising sneaky booties and authentic grooves, this 18-strong collection is a one-stop-shop to party town. Highlights include Mr Mezdup's percussion and glitch-heavy rub of The Specials "Ghost Town", Rory Hoy's high voltage acid attack "Hey!" and Freddy Fresh's beautiful seasonal sonic soliloquy "Summer's End".

Review: Putting aside the question of whether Ram Skank is in fact back by, um, "dope demand", this full-length debut should warm the cockles of anyone who likes their beats and breaks heavy, groovy and laden with cheeky samples. In true Big M fashion, Back By Dope Demand restlessly shifts between styles, mashing up vocals, breaks, beats, rave noises and sub cabinet-busting basslines with gleeful abandon. Expect to hear future garage rinse-outs, breakbeat bombs, funk breaks smashers, revivalist rave jams, 4/4 bubblers and a skipload of skank-heavy bangers. Killer.

Review: Killer funk infused breakbeat from Ram Skank here on the There Were The Breaks EP, with two original cuts and three new remixes. It's the Funkanomics refix of "Rainbow Cemetery" that we're digging most, with a head nodding cut-up vibe that sounds like the early - and less abrasive - work of Frenchman Sebastian. Don't miss the original cut of "Pass The Cheese" either, which shines with a breezy charm that reminds us of Katalyst circa Manipulating Agent.
