Review: Bombstrikes introduces Suki Soul to its illustrious roster with a dazzling debut release, "Right Back At Ya". A luscious slice of funk-infused disco, Suki's production and vocal prowess evoke the timeless sounds of Melba Moore, D Train, and Patrice Rushen. Collaborating with long-time partner Leroy, Suki has curated a musical masterpiece, enlisting a formidable lineup of musicians, including drum virtuoso Derrick McKenzie (Jamiroquai) and percussion maestro Russ Tarley (Incognito), ensuring that her vision is brought to life with the highest level of musical excellence.
Review: A heavyweight transatlantic vocal team-up here, as the in-demand tonsils of San Francisco's Brian Lucas share the spotlight with those of the north of England's equally in-demand Suki Soul. Together, they take on Inner City's 'Back Together Again' from 1993 - a track yours truly used to absolutely rinse back in the day, so hopefully it'll mean something when I say they've made a pretty decent fist of it, too. Yam Who? & Jaegerossa's disco-flavoured Extended Mix is accompanied by a matching instrumental but my money's on the Eric Faria House Mix, albeit possibly just because it's the closest to the original...

Their rendering wisely leaves the song structure intact, simply upping the tempo a notch or two and giving the track a light topcoat of shimmering nu-disco polish, while Suki turns in an impressive vocal performance - especially when you consider that she's having to try and compete with an original sung by a trio. A cert on soulful and nu-disco floors for the summer, with simple vocal and instrumental rubs to choose from.

Review: The boogie vibes are strong in this three-way team-up between disco stalwart Yam Who?, northern UK vocalist Suki Soul and the mysterious Mr Smith, about whom we can't tell you much except that he once made a record called 'Santa's Techno Sled' so he can't be all bad! Atop a background that's long on squelchy analogue synths, fat funk bass (both organic and synthesized) and gloriously 80s-sounding drum machine beats, Ms Soul promises her lover that while she'll "be a good girl for the world", it really is the quiet ones you've got to watch...
