Review: Many happy returns to Los Angeles imprint Friends of Friends, which with this expansive compilation notches up a decade of championing "one of a kind artists working to find new ways of connecting the digital and analog worlds". The weighty, 20-track collection naturally offers a great snapshot of the label's distinctive musical headspace, languidly strolling between woozy, semi-acoustic trip-hop beats (Somi & Haris Cole), evocative cinematic soundscapes (Cuddle Formation), drowsy redlined ambience (Deru), jazzy warmth (Sweatson Klank), loose-limbed bluesy dub disco (James Alexander Bright), atmospheric, post-house dancefloor shufflers (Keep Shelly In Athens) and buzzing, percussion-driven mutations of leftfield bass music (Slete Catorce).

Review: Indian Wells is Calabrian producer Pietro Iannuzzi, who presents his third album via Los Angeles based Friends Of Friends. Across a range of artfully composed and emotive tracks, the album, entitled Where The World Ends, channels feelings of geographical, social and political isolation formed from borders both ageless and imposed. Choirs of wordless vocals provide a universal element of communication throughout; breaking down barriers of language, creating connections and crossing borders. Lead single "Cascades" is spiritual and evocative deep house on the techier tip, which will appeal to like minded sounds on esteemed imprints like Crosstown Rebels or All Day I Dream. The second single is the title track, and shows a moodier side to Iannuzzi which could get airtime in Berlin's top clubs: calling to mind the trendy sounds of local labels like Stil Vor Talent or Kindisch. Mixed at Sudestudio near Lecce, (Puglia) by local songstress Matilde Davoli.

Review: Slowly building a devoted following with his unique take on electronic music, Boston's M.O.O.N.'s debut full length traverses a wide range of emotive synthesizer music by forgoing the usual dance music formulas for freer arrangements and lush instrumentation. While the rhythms are rooted in variants of house, boogie, and synth-pop, the album never tips it's hand stylistically in any particular direction. This results in a playful balance of retro sounds and futuristic ideas highlighting a deft melodic sensibility. Highlights include the deep sax driven drifter "Time", the ethereal punk funk of "Jon F" or the Kompakt style techno-pop of "Alicia".
