Third Attempt
Browse the latest digital releases by Third Attempt
Review: Following a trio of largely overlooked but very good EPs, Third Attempt (real name Torje Fagertun Spilde) drops an album built around the best of those quietly scintillating sets. Bookended by picturesque, ambient style interludes, Momentary Bliss works as a showcase for the Tromso-based producer's distinctive trademark sound - a loose, languid and sun-warm blend of jazz-funk instrumentation, infectious breakbeats, warming basslines, scratched-in hip-hop samples and Aim style downtempo instrumentation. It's the kind of toasty and entertaining set best suited for wavy front room dancing and blunted sessions on the sofa on a Sunday afternoon. It feels like an echo of another time, but that's no bad thing.

The Secret Soul Society X Hardway Bros - "Yo, We've Landed" (Hardway Bros remix Redux) - (7:51) 100 BPM
Review: Draw a line from boogie to Balearica, via Italo disco and deep house, and somewhere along that arc you'll find this latest V/A collection from Manchester's long-running Paper Recordings. Crazy P have been in the Paper camp since the early days so are a fitting choice to open proceedings with the gloriously hazy 'Last Knockers', after which other standouts for yours truly include the slow-building, prog-leaning acid of Anisto Tropics' 'Topaz', Natasha Kitty Katt's typically infectious remix of Diskobeistet's 'Gammal Morro' and the sunny, summery disco-house of Benny Pitcher's 'Transatlantic Motion', until finally MADe's 'You're The One' plays us out on a mellower, more downtempo note.

Review: If proof was needed that the term 'deep house' now encompasses a much wider range of sounds and styles than it once did, just compare this latest 'Paper Cuts' installment to any volume in Paper's seminal late 90s 'Splinter' series... we have, indeed, come a long way baby, and the more traditionally minded might argue that much of what's here would sit better under the umbrellas marked Balearica or leftfield electronica. But 'Paper Cuts #5' certainly makes for a varied and engaging listen, with standouts including Mordisco's strutty, punk-funkish 'Musica De Baile', the warped funk of Minus The Majors' 'Peanut Dust' and Neon Transmission's rave-basslined, pop-vocalled 'Driving Me Crazy'.

Review: The mighty Paper Recordings bring us a split EP from two producers who (as the EP title kinda hints!) both hail from Troms? in Norway: Keecen and Torje Spilde AKA Third Attempt. The deep disco-house of Third Attempt's 'Push' and wonked-out squelch of Keecen's 'Gone' are just the hors d'oeuvres: it's the entr?es that make this EP essential. Third Attempt's 'Discotek' is a bass-y, brassy stomper - complete with Loleatta vocal bites - that could get the dead up and dancin', while Keecen's 'Define Jazz' rocks more of that phat, squelchy bottom-end and wouldn't have disgraced Basement Jaxx in their 'Remedy'-era prime.

Review: Label co-owner Flash Atkins is at the controls for this second celebration of Paper Music's first 25 years. While there's a smattering of material from the label's first 15 years, the majority of Atkins' selections come from releases put out over the last decade. Like its' predecessor, it's an action-packed affair full of high quality cuts. Standouts include the swirling nu-disco bliss of Rave-Enka's "Honningen", the hazy lounge-jazz-meets-house sleaziness of Diskobeistet's "Birklunden", the piano-powered chunkiness of Leon Sweet's "Beat Slave Auto", the analogue deep house bubbliness of Doc L Junior's "Twilight" and the early morning deep house hypnotism of Ryan Kick's remix of Space Coast's "Just Past Midnight". Best of all, though, is the TB-303-powered hypno-house insanity of Ralph Myerz and The Kosmik Diamondz 14-minute "Acid 4 Eddie".
