Review: An Italo disco-themed Phantom Of The Opera overture with a touch of Michael Mayer influence, and flickers of Holy Ghost's breakout hit "Hold On", is something of the sound you should expect from Good Guy Mikesh's From Another World EP. Both versions of "Place Of Love" have the potential to put lumps in dancers throats the same way The Star-Spangled Banner does for American nationalists, while "On Patrol" is pure, bass pumping heat. The drums in "Holy Day" almost reference that of French electro pairing Justice, only Mikesh's synths, keys and chimes belong to the soundtrack of a '70s sci-fi cult classic.

Review: How does a label follow up a surprise summer smash? In the case of Ellum Audio and the excellent New York Is Alright from TV Baby, founder Maceo Plex returns with his first original material for the label in nearly a year, teaming up with Odd Parent's Maars on Going Back. A simple two tracker aimed at the dancefloors, the lead original mix takes the vocals of Florence Bird and weaves them deep into the groove of a dark, sonically hypnotic arrangement with all the usual Plex nuances like crisp drums, gloopily foreboding bassline and clipped strings. The dub version naturally discards with Bird's contribution yet retains the intensity.

Review: The latest missive on Maceo Plex and Alta's popular Ellum Audio label sees a debut from previously unknown producers Gotz Bokler and Nilk Bohn. "Pirates Poetry" ticks all the boxes, delivering a warm, woozy cut featuring an icy female vocal and the sort of shuffling, cocaine-addled grooves usually heard on Crosstown Rebels' biggest hits. 2020 Vision veteran Carl Finlow (Random Factor, Silicon Scally etc) delivers a pleasingly bright, bleep-heavy tweak, while Jupiter Jazz - Hot Creations man Danny Daze and pal Eric Estornel - weigh in with a suitably large, main-room friendly version. A decent package is rounded off by Bokler and Bohn's bouncy remix of dreamAwaken's "8 Bit in a Bit".

Review: Maceo's label Ellum Audio is really beginning to find its place in the tech scene; lavishing listeners with a salubrious, rolling funk, it's been just as much of a breath of fresh air as Maceo's productions themselves. Put the two together and you're onto a purebred winner... "Filthy Mama" twists and turns with the sonic toxicity of 2020 Soundsystem record performed live while "Stimulation" is more prog-inclined with heaps of beautiful emotion laced throughout.

Review: Scoring big hits across the modern house underground, Maxxi Soundsystem makes his way to Maceo Plex's Ellum Audio imprint for the warm and soothing tones of "Stella's Way", which centres around a looping synth riff that sounds as though it was lifted straight out of 80s radio. Huxley's remix pares down any such frivolities, homing in on the scattered vocal flourishes and dropping a mean shuffle and off-key chords for some ultimately funky functionality. Shall Ocin rounds things off with a version that capitalises on the lush melodies of the original and bolsters them with additional synths for an equally fuzzy jaunt.

Review: Having made his name with a decidedly fluorescent blend of retro-futurist house revivalism, the logical next step for Maceo Plex was always going to be working with his heroes. Here, he joins forces with former Hacienda resident and '90s remixer of choice Jon DaSilva for a cut based on the latter's unreleased remix of a Jones Girls cover. It's pretty much what you'd expect from both parties rolled into one; the booming synth-bass and cyber-synths of Plex, versus the '90s vocal stylings and bumpin' disco-house beats of DaSilva. Plex himself delivers a thunderous, techno-flavoured Dub, while solo bonus cut "Futre Musik", a tribute to German tech-housers Closer Musik, rises and falls for 10 gorgeous minutes.

Review: Few house producers have enjoyed quite as rapid a rise in 2011 than Maceo Plex. Here he jumps ship from Crosstown Rebels to launch his own label, offering two typically emotional chunks of Visionquest-ish synth-house. While the epic "Aint No Love" opts for a sci-fi tinged approach, it's A-side builder "Stay High Baby" that really impresses. Working with many of his usual elements - those touchy-feely vocals, a snatch of disco guitar, emotion-rich chords, snappy beats, big breakdowns, echo-laden pianos and a dash of acid tweakery - he carefully builds a naggingly hooky concoction that bueatifully ebbs and flows throughout.
