Tru Thoughts
Played by: Juno Recommends Downtempo
Review: Early this year the Tru Thoughts label delivered us Hemai's Strange Beauty album that's full of orchestral jazz sounds, free dub, percussion and an assortment of vocal works. To continue the celebration of its success comes the Strange Beauty Instrumental version that sees all these broken beat and nu jazz numbers turned into sweetly cruising instrumental classics. Enscond yourself in the vocal-less vibes of "Gone Surfing" and Balearic tips of "Noa Noa" next to equally breezy funk sessions in "Brother's Shuffle" or the stepping electro-acoustic soul-time classic "We Could Be Jaded". A real treat for jazz cats chasing the beat.

Review: For a new spin on broken beat Morcheeba vibes crossed with something like Air - look to this debut album Strange Beauty album by emerging young artist, Hemai. Taking in collaborations from vocalists Wallace (NZ) and Maralisa (aka Space Captain), to some Japanese Bossa Nova inspired action in "Noa Noa feat. Emilia Anastazja" - Erica Tucceri's flutes take us straight to the pleasure zone all the more in "We Could Be Jaded". Across the LP expect a warm and welcoming concoction of neo-soul, with breezy downbeat sessions in "Gone Surfing" to subtle cosmic disco in "When Day Breaks". Singer-songwriter Fifi Robo appears in the R&B-pop swoon "Lover Dancer" and a very woozy "Bandit's Pockets" - mirrored similarly by "Awake Indigo (feat Ruby Wood)" - with plenty of jazz, electronica and percussion to be explored between.

Review: Japanese artist Masaaki Yoshida aka Anchorsong based out of London is a firm favourite within the Tru Thoughts collective. Having released three albums for the Brighton outpost since 2011, he brings a sweet new double drop to the label in an aptly titled, New World. Bringing shades of a melodic exotica sound to the title-track through the use of traditional folk elements, wind instruments and harpsichords, an infectious and groovy broken beat rhythm does the rest! For your dubbed out alternative with some dusty flutes, swing and vocal snippets to boot, look no further than "Tunis Dream".

Review: Over the last year, we have seen a number of different projects land from Crafty 893, with this latest selection entitled 'Smart Dumb' being what we believe to be what everything has been leading up to. To put it simply, it's a powerful project, showcasing both Crafty's unique production ability with a collection of emotive yet rave-ready instrumentation, coupled with encapsulating lyricism and raucous performances. The project shows so much variety, from the incredible sing-along hook of 'Sincerely, Crafty 893' and 'Back It' alongside Big Zuu, to the more classic grimey flavours of 'Goods' and the 'My Headspace' freestyle. It's somewhat of a masterpiece and we feel that Crafty is well overdue his flowers, with our favourites including the choppy drum rolls of 'Get Down' and of course the unforgettable reload flavour of 'Wotless' alongside the legendary Sir Spyro.
