Review: SBM is a new collaboration between Philpot co-founder Micahel Baumann (AKA Soulphiction) and the mysterious Blunted Monkz (an artist who has made just a handful of appearances on EPs and compilations since debuting in 2011). Happily, the quality threshold remains high throughout. Opener "Gotta Have It" sets the tone, serving up a rolling deep house cut built around low-slung dub disco bass, echoing vocal samples and layered percussion. "Tripolis Jam" is an even sweatier and more intensely percussive affair, with restless cowbells and heavier drum hits working in unison with a fuzzy, punk-funk bassline. Finally, they unveil the EP's undisputed banger, "Criticize", a woozy but energy-packed, jazzy deep house jam featuring vocal snippets from the Alexander O'Neal classic of the same name.

Review: Giant Cuts' Back To Jack series launches with an EP of revivalist house goodness from Phazon, one of the many aliases of Dirty Funker Paul Glancy. Title track "Freqbox" sets the tone, building slowly via waves of atmospheric chords and jaunty piano riffs, before morphing into an up-all-night assault of wild TB-303 acid lines and scattergun drum machine hits. The mentalist '303' lines come to the fore on the no-nonsense Phuture style jack attack that is "D Minor Experiments (Acid Mix)", before Glancy doffs a cap to Mr Lee, Richard Sen and early Bang The Party releases on EP highlight "This Ain't London".

Review: By his impeccable standards, Michael Baumann has had a pretty quiet year, with EPs on Musik Krause and Circus Company his only releases of note. Here, he finishes the year in style, returning to the Philpot label he co-founded with another impressive pair of tunes. While the heady deep house warmth of "Obsidian Fields" is nominally the lead cut - think soul-flecked Rhodes chords, sun-flecked guitars and unfussy grooves - virtual flipside "Born Again" is arguably a stronger proposition. While it, too, features some typically tactile electric piano motifs, it's built around the kind of raw, distorted, broken techno rhythm he does so well. The track manages to simultaneously be tough and dreamy - a particularly attractive proposition.

Review: There's a raw, sweaty, back-in-the-day feel to this two-track taster of tracks from Philpot boss Soulphiction's live set. "Mind & Body" is built around formidably loose and organic sounding disco drums, complimented by a familiar extended vocal sample from a stone cold disco classic. Yet it also has warm keys and just the right amount of deep house pads. The results are electrifying, offering just the right balance between disco release and contemporary house chops. "Mind & Body", on the other hand, is deep house all the way - think undulating grooves, wide-eyed elecric piano chords, hissing cymbals and the most delicious "wet" electric bassline you'll hear all month. Stellar stuff, all told.

Review: Freerotation is one of the UK festival circuit's best kept secrets, with this year's edition notable for about 15 sets from Move D. Inspired by events such as this, Philpot boss Soulphiction recorded these two tracks in honour of the festival whilst rehearsing for his live set at Freerotation this year. Raw, deep and emotive, the original version of "Freerotation" dovetails between drifting chords, delightfully light key refrains and juddering vocal swoops over the brittle jacking drums. Up next, the Jackmate dub features some nicely spaced vocals from Suzana Rozkosny and is a more rhythmically intricate counterpart to the original, unfurling into some brilliantly dubby key patterns and unannounced deviations into acid freakout status.

Review: Philpot boss Michael Baumann swaps hats on this pleasing two-tracker, offering tracks from both of his current musical projects. First up is "Full Swing" from collaborative 'live' project Missing Linkx, a delicious, surprisingly innocent concoction that gives deep house an organic twist thanks to some warm keys, simmering strings, jazzy trumpet, warped analogue bass and swinging beats that fall somewhere between 4/4 and broken beat. Flip for "Lovin' Dubbin' Feelin", a solo Soulphiction cut that promotes the same live approach to music-making but adds a faithfully dubby production sheen and a wonderfully bluesy vocal. As with "Full Swing", it's both effortlessly soulful and comfortingly loose.
