Review: Over the last few years, Turbojazz (real name Tommaso Garafalo) has established himself as an esteemed member of soul-fired dance music that frequently defies easy categorization. In that time, he has appeared on Sampling As An Art Records, GAMM, Boogie Café, Support System Recordings and Local Talk. Here he begins his 2024 release campaign via a fine hook-up with vocalist Rona Ray on his own Last Forever label. In its original mix form, 'Like You' is unsurprisingly assured, with Rona Ray's super-sweet lead vocals, D-Train style synth squiggles and warming electric piano chords riding a hip-swinging US garage beat and deep, UK garage-style sub-bass. Garafalo's pal and soulful house star Sean McCabe delivers the accompanying remix, adding layers of synths, crunchier drums and his own trademark rhythmic swing.

Review: Italy's Tommaso Garofalo has been doing his thing as Turbojazz for well over a decade, chalking up releases on the likes of Local Talk, BBE and Defected along the way. It's his own Last Forever label, however, that provides a home for this debut long-player in which he displays his mastery of a range of styles, with cuts ranging from the straight-up jazz-funk of opener 'The Standard' to the haunting future R&B of the Sara Vanderwert-vocalled 'You Are Worth It', via ambient interlude 'Novalude', the West London bruk beat-isms of 'Constellated Ceilings', the laidback jazz-hop of 'We Lost A Night' (feat Demetrius Rhymes & ARYA) and the unabashed experimentalism of 'Illudion'.

Review: Local Talk's periodic round-up of classic cuts from the label's bulging back catalogue returns for an eighth time, with imprint founders Mad Mats and Tooli gathering together a predictably fine selection of tracks. Most bases are covered - house-wise, at least - from trumpet-laden Afro-house brilliance (Dasco's "African Power"), and ultra-soulful, Atjazz-esque broken house deepness (Wipe The Needle's super-smooth "Enchanted"), to "French Kiss"-inspired house hypnotism (Soulphiction's "Believe"), 21st century jazz-funk/deep house fusion (Crackazat's fine rework of Art of Tones' "The Rainbow Song") and ultra-deep, Nina Simone-sampling dancefloor bliss (Emvee's "Brotherman"). In a word: essential.

Review: In honour of the imprint's fifth birthday, Boogie Cafe founders Jimmy The Twin and Alex Dinham have decided to offer up a first label compilation containing previously unheard tracks from their growing family of artists. There's naturally plenty to set the pulse racing among the woozy deep house, shuffling broken beats, seductive synth-boogie and retro-futurist US garage on offer, with highlights including the musically expansive brilliance of Sean McCabe's "Infinity", the slick New Jersey bump of Goshawk's "Home (Throwback Vibe Mix)", the Balearic nu-disco bliss of Piers Kirwan's "Shout", the spacey Afro-bruk shapes of EVM128's "Tuff" and the sub-heavy dancehall-soul bounce of Haze City's broken house gem "Yer Tiz". Top stuff from the Bristol-based imprint: don't let it pass you by!

Review: Following on from Unbreakable, his 2016 debut on Local Talk, Tommaso Garofalo aka Turbojazz returns to the UK label. Inspired by Detroit techno and broken beat / nu jazz in equal measures, "Two" sees Garofalo focus on the dance floor in his own inimitable fashion. Scuffled drums are combined with ticking percussion and warbling synth lines to crate a vivid, expansive sound. "The Joint" is just as distinctive; centred on a disco filter and dusty melodies that are looped as a back drop to mischievous acid lines, it is one of the finest interpretations of modern deep house that you'll hear this year.

Review: S3A and Poon welcome Italian vibe maestro Tommy Garofalo to SAAAR for an lavish seven-piece soiree. Dusted with more of his dreamy jazzy signature he's been developing on labels such as Local Talk and G.A.M.M. Flexing from the squidgy mild acid disco funk of "Atmos" to the lolloping double bass jacks and warped strings and pianos of "TSOS" by way of the woozy aquatic synths and sensual soul whirls of "OrangePeelSkin" and far-out deep dream desert jazz ("The Deepest"), this is Turbojazz's most accomplished and generous EP to date. Live on.

Review: As the title suggests, Local Talk's latest compilation showcases some of the best remixes and alternate versions nestling in the Swedish label's bulging archives. A quick glance at the track listing confirms the presence of some serious studio talent, with Atjazz, Kai Alice and Kaytronik amongst those supplying superb re-rubs in their own distinct styles. Highlights include, but are not limited to, Alexader Lay-Far's bustling and fuzzy rework of his own collaboration with Ashley Beedle and Darren Morris ("Slope"), Glenn Underground's wonderfully positive and musically expansive deep house rub of Kiko Navarro's "Nea Kemeni" and Basic Soul Unit's thrillingly stab-heavy "Basement remix" of Kyodai's "Moving" - a prime slice of early morning sleaze that's been a little overlooked since it appeared a few years back.

Review: Turbojazz man Tommy Garofolo is well known to Local Talk co-founder Mad Mats, having previously released an EP of Latin jazz reworks for the Swedish veteran's G.A.M.M imprint. This time round, he's showcasing his original production talents, delivering a couple of loose, jazzy and sumptuous deep house gems. He begins with Motor City soul shuffler "Unbreakable", where the slick vocals of guest David Blank spar with heady synth lines and fluid Rhodes chords over an MPC style house groove, before doffing a cap to the liquid jazz-funk of Herbie Hancock on the sparkling deep house shuffler "Unicorn Rising". Finally, EVM128 serves up a jazzy and sensual broken beat/nu-jazz rework of "Please U".

Review: Back in 1983 a new-wave band called Re-Flex last raised the not so pressing issue of The Politics Of Dancing. Well, now it's the 21st century and everything, and CT-HI have felt the irrepressible urge to bring up this issue bang up to date. This means changing the 'cs' to an 'x' and it also means five fresh candidates to vote for. Bleary-eyed analogue electro-funk courtesy of Aeed, the soulful broken RnB of Parker Madicine, Chez Pete's quirky and brief drum short, Turbojazz's chopped and looped vintage jazz-hop and Jazz Madicine's cheeky grinder Interlude, "Bubbles".
