Review: Leeds label Shades of Sound seem obsessed with serving up melodious and colourful music tailor-made for sunny days and humid dancing at dusk. They're at it again on 'Disco Archipalego', a bold and entertaining label debut courtesy of Sydney producer Arp Decco. There three typically sparkling and kaleidoscopic original tracks on display: the mid-tempo, synth strings-laden Balearic piano house-meets-Reverso 68 cheeriness of 'Disco Archipalego', the synth solo sporting piano house-with-acid-bass flex of 'New Life', and the gorgeous 'Breeze', whose snaking sax solos, joyous melodious and chunky TB-303 bassline create a suitably loved-up mood. 'Tech Support' turn 'New Life' into an acid-flecked, sunrise-ready breakbeat house gem, before Joe Morris rounds off a fine EP by giving 'Breeze' a nostalgic, Balearic house-goes-breakbeat re-fix.

Review: Big Miz makes a triumphant return to Dansu Discs with his latest EP Heartfelt Nonsense - delivering five weighty tracks that epitomise the artist's signature sound. Opening with the collaboration "Glass In My Hand", featuring Bemz, it sets the EPs tone with its deep house groove and hip-hop-infused vocals. Tracks like "All The Time" and "Acid Dreams" showcase Big Miz's knack for blending classic Chicago sounds with his Glaswegian flair, while "Green Baldy" offers a no-nonsense, floor-filling jackin' vibe. Closing with "Yes", Big Miz rounds off the EP with finesse, turning it in with some versatility and infectious beats.

Jamie xx feat Honey Dijon
Review: Jamie xx and Honey Dijon team up for a floor-filling heater on "Baddy On The Floor," coming hot on the heels of a string of Jamie xx releases over the past few years, including "idontknow," "Let's Do It Again," and most recently, "It's So Good" in January. The track is a disco house fusion, pulsing with a classic energy. Jamie xx expertly weaves a sample of Keni Burke's "Let Somebody Love You" into the production, creating a sense of nostalgic familiarity. Honey Dijon adds their signature touch, infusing the polished sound with a hint of underground club magic. 2024 summer banger!

Review: Following outings on Groove Culture Deep, Dobro and Small Great Things, former Endless Music regular Luca Olivitto returns to theBasement Discos for the first time since 2022. The Berlin-based producer has more than proved his credentials of late, so it's no surprise to find that the two tracks on show are both high-quality. First up is title track 'Deep Waves', a gorgeously warming, tactile and sunny slab of nostalgic Italo-house revivalism piled high with jazzy bass, colourful chords and sparkling piano motifs. On 'Down The Line', Olivotto delivers another musically rich and positive slab of retro-futurist deep house that sounds like a long lost workout from 1992.

Stacy Kidd feat Peven Everett
Review: Two Chi-town veterans scene join forces with predictably fine results that are served up in three quite different mixes. In its Original form, 'Body Jerkin' is a disco-house paean to the delights of the dancefloor with a full vocal from Everett, live-sounding hand percussion and naggingly familiar disco strings. The Chicago Mix kicks much harder from the off with rock-solid 4/4s, but almost immediately takes a far jazzier turn with meandering, wigged-out keys, Everett getting his scat on and horns joining the party around the three-minute mark. And then there's the Disco Mix, which opts for a more 70s-ish sound palette but takes a looping, cut-up approach. All three are eminently playable but the Chicago Mix is the one for the proverbial 'heads'.
