Review: Body poppers get your fine behinds down to the front.. Woz is back from his WxT excursion with some serious classical electro vibes in the form of "Grains". Sitting somewhere between classic Lee Coombes and Man Parrish, it's a stripped back neck snapper of the leanest proportions that taps deep into break culture while strutting into the future. "Celsius" flips the vibe but maintains the stripped-back, groove-focused attitude as we're locked deep into an MAW style percussive swing charged by the organ and vocal hook. Hypnotic.
Review: Oof! New house magic from the Lobster Boy label, brought to you by newcomer Studio 6! Two easy reasons to check this EP out and hit the download button upon instant listen: first and foremost, this is the label to check and follow if you're into club-centric funky house with a touch of the old-school, and these dudes always scout the best new talent out there. Secondly, "Fruit Machine" is an instant hit of euphoria, a bouncy rush of four-to-the-floor that simply goes the groove totally right by perfecting the balance between techy, funky and sexy; there's an instrumental mix on here as well as that blazing original cut!
Review: Quadrants main man and Merseyside's finest Mele is back with Queens Day: no doubt a tribute to Amsterdam's best party of the year and what a fitting soundtrack it is. A Latin-esque Carnival flavoured track that crosses over with bass music splendidly. Those whistles and steel drums are pretty sick, but just wait for that drop! Second track "Body Thing" continues on with the Latin festive vibes; those steel drums go even more ballistic with even more funk, this track could easily mix well with some summery big room tech house for monstrous effect.
Review: Redlight isn't messing around, that's for damn sure. The Bristolian has already released on Mercury and Polydor, two major majors, and now he's back up on Lobster Boy with a new album! The "Intro" sets the scene perfectly to an LP that explores the various shades of house and club music, a start that falls neatly into a funky, seductive bassline house number in "Gold Teeth". "Lessons" offers listeners a bit more of a classic house sound, while cuts such as "Lion Jungle" - which features none other than Prodigy - verge onto more UK-centric, hip-hop-filtered sounds, and others like "Threshold" drop us into pop / r&b territories. The latter is particularly suited to radio playback, and it's no wonder why this guy has been released on such big labels.
Review: It's business as usual from London's Lobster Boy label. Bristol bad boy Redlight teams up with the sultry vocals of Roses Gabor for a dirty, late night bass driven ditty on "Metronome". There's just as much bump and shuffle as there is low end on this unashamedly UK track. And just wait until you hear that absolutely mental drop. Represent!
