Review: More value-for-money goodness from Situationism's 'In The Bag' series, which offers up tried-and-tested tunes and never-before-heard remixes of catalogue cuts. As you'd expect, label bosses Situation are heavily represented, with Max Essa's dreamy, squelch-along Balearic nu-disco tweak of 'Say Goodbye' being joined by Masterman's deep and spacey house revision of their Andre Esput hook-up, 'Not So Crazy'. The hits come thick and fast elsewhere across the EP, from the groovy, dubby, disco-tinged deep house shuffle of 'Peqach Snapps' by Francesco S, and a gorgeously summery spin on Javontte's 'Beautiful' by South Beach Recycling, to the deep, broken house sunshine that is 'L'Amore' by Aaron Matthews, and the mid-tempo New Jersey garage retro-futurism of Bittasuite's 'We Have Landed'.
Review: Sheer quality here from Situationism as they bring us a track aimed straight at underground house floors: 'Dance Or Buy' is about as likely to get played on daytime radio as Lichtenstein are to win the next FIFA World Cup, but if you're someone whose musical vocabulary can stretch to encompass Blaze's 'My Beat', Larry Heard's 'Washing Machine' AND Mutabaruka's 'Dis Poem' then trust us, you need to be adding this to your collection forthwith. Remix-wise you've got a throbbier 6AM Dub and a slightly more light 'n' airy BRS Remix to choose from, but the three don't vary hugely and any one of 'em will get knowledgeable floors moving for sure.
