France - (3:47) 89 BPM
727 And Arp Breaks (ASOK remix) - (6:23) 87 BPM
Review: Perhaps the most impressive thing about Dampe's second outing on Dirt Crew is its subtle eclecticism. Compare and contrast, for example, the soft focus, ultra-deep electronica of superb opener "A Basement, Ten Years Ago", with the track that follows it, the dubbed-out, spaced-out deep house bliss of "727 And Arp Breaks (Original Mix)". It's a pattern that continues throughout the EP, with the Rhodes-laden ambient jazz of "Live Birds" making way for the synth-laden, two-step tech-jazz of "Garden" and the tropical dub shuffle of "France". The EP also boasts a fine remix of "727 And Arp Breaks" by Liverpool techno type ASOK, whose brilliantly re-imagines it as a hot-stepping slab of deep space dancehall.

Joint No. 5 - (5:19) 81 BPM
Review: Fans of sample digging deep house maestro S3A take note: the producer has finally dropped his long-promised debut album on Dirt Crew. While there are a couple of subtle musical references to his hip-hop style beat-making past - see the blunted, off-kilter beat science of "Joint No. 5" and the drowsy mid-tempo dustiness of "Interlude For Marc" - the majority of the album has its sights firmly set on peaktime dancefloors. Amongst the plentiful highlights you'll find the swinging, leftfield jazz-funk/jazz-house fusion of "Greed", the fuzz-bass propelled stomp of "Fever", the funk-sampling heavy house genius of "Clarence J Boddicker" and the heady disco-house warmth of "Friends".

Peach Shuffle EP
Carn (feat SMBD) - (3:24) 85 BPM
Review: Debutant Dampe resides in South East London, making tracks that fuse distinctively UK influences - think broken beat, the resurgent British jazz scene, Britfunk and off-kilter bass music - with nods to African music and the comforting sounds and dreamy chords of high quality deep house. You'll find all this and more on this expansive first outing, whose many highlights include the gentle tropical deepness of the Floating Points style brilliance "Zongo Junction, At Night", the beat-less, slowly unfurling bliss of "Move Me" and the drowsy broken house brilliance of "Peach Shuffle". That track is also remixed by Nebraska, who beefs up the beats and adds some jaunty new synths while retaining Dampe's deep and intoxicating vibe.

Deep Love 2018
Various
25 Places - "Bleak Moments" - (7:22) 85 BPM
Review: On their Deep Love 2018 compilation, you'll find label stalwarts to newcomers alike for respected Berlin imprint Dirt Crew. Their seventh compilation in the series, the label claims that it is the most complete in terms of sound and flow - and will blend in perfectly with that laid back, late summer mood. From moments of dusty and chilled-out deepness courtesy of Lorenz Rhode or Felix Leifur, lo-slung acid jams like Ponty Mython's "It's All Understood" or funked-up disco house like Frenchman S3A's "Modern Soul". Elsewhere, we have got the kind of slinky and sensual tech-house you've come to expect from the label - best exemplified by Canadian Dan Only or Jaxx Madicine's particularly sublime "Blue Bird". Essentially, it's more of the fine quality you've come to expect from this house music institution.
