Frame Of Mind
Review: Amazingly, 30 years have now passed since the release of Gert-Jan Bijl's debut single as Gerd, the double A-side 'Vorpal Blade/Easin' In The S-System' - a pair of undoubted cult classics that have lost none of their lustre over the years. This EP focuses on the latter, offering a variety of versions made (and in many cases releases) at different points over the last three decades. Check first the 'Original 1994 Extended Version', a lusciously deep, spacey and emotive slab of immersive techno, before admiring the bubbly acid bass and swirling pads of the 'Unreleased Demo Mix'. We also recommend checking the raw, angular and moody 'Unreleased 2004 Version' and the 'Unreleased Bonus Version', which places the bassline, beats and ghostly chords at the heart of the action.

Review: They don't make them much more rulable than Gerd - the Dutchman has been quietly going about his business seemingly forever over there in the Netherlands. House and electro are his bread and butter but his ability to speak through his machines elevates everything he does to all new labels. Frame Of Mind is home to this latest EP and it launches with the metallic drum chatter, analogue aesthetics and cosmic house bump of "Kosmos Tour" before exploring lovely lazy deep house on "Red Girl", dancefloor darkness on "Videophonic" old school Virgo-esque Chicago sounds on "Fractalz". Yet another timeless EP from this master.

Review: Back in 1993, Nature Boy Milo Johnson followed-up the release of his sublime Ruff Disco Volume 1 LP with the two-part Necessary Ruffness EP. This first digital reissue, which comes on the back of a new edition of its in-demand predecessor, gathers together cuts from both of those 12" singles. In "Eurodisney (Unreleased Demo Mix)", the EP also contains a previously unheard, stripped-back take on the Italo-house inspired workout. There are plenty of other highlights across the remainder of the EP, though, including the breezy, sample-heavy chunkiness of "Real (Dubwize)", (Deep House), the bass heavy, jazz-funk fuelled bump of "Whatchusay (Demo Mix)" and the undulating, Philadelphia International-goes-house vibes of the ultra-positive "Philly Bound".

Toyin Agbetu presents Shades Of Black
Review: Gerd's Frame of Mind label aims to reissue classic older tracks as well as fresh new house sounds. Here are seven exquisite deep house cuts for you by producer Toyin Agbetu. A forgotten hero of the UK underground responsible for some of the most exquisite music out there. Between 1990 - 1992 this veteran producer made everything from street soul and hip-hop to moody Chicago and Detroit inspired house and soulful garage cuts. All crafted with passion, love and devotion. With this EP Frame Of Mind introduces you to some of his finest works recorded under the Shades Of Black alias, where Gerd has selected several out of print releases from the Intrique label. A must have for fans of classic house such as Larry Heard. Since quitting the music business, Agbetu is these days a writer, educator, artist-activist and Pan African community worker.

Review: Dirk-Jan Hanegraaff, Gert-Jan Bijl and Mark Ripmeester released more music via more aliases than you've had Nandos... The proliferation of electronic gold coming from their Dutch laboratory is staggering. Celebrating 25 years, It's Thinking was one of the most significant projects of the time. Flexing from the darkest dancefloor to the lightest of lounges, the document is still as immersive and innovative as it was in 92. The title track (famously remixed by Bushwacka years later) is the epitome of everything about early 90s house while "Surviving Desire" is a darker exploration of techno and the then-burgeoning influence of Detroit while in between we have the daydreamy synth melodies of "Down In A Bubble" and the joyous house uplift of "Mild At Heart". Still resonating hard to this day, there's no overthinking this one.
