Fires
Fires (Victor Calderone & Mykol remix) - (6:14) 125 BPM
Review: Given that his Crosstown Rebels label debut, 'Horizon Red', was widely praised as one of the underground club cuts of 2023, hopes are naturally high for Made In Pete's speedy sequel. In its original form (track one), 'Fires' is a burning hot (sorry) blend of moody vocals (and vocalisations), shuffling house beats, rubbery synth-bass and meandering TB-303 acid motifs. He provides a tougher, darker and more after-hours-friendly 'Dub Mix' of his own, while the package also boasts two other revisions: a deeper, dreamier and more loose-limbed rework by UK scene stalwart Bushwacka!, and a deliciously dark, twisted and mind-mangling tribal house-goes-acid rework courtesy of Victor Calderone and Mykol.

Cope (Rigopolar remix) - (7:15) 125 BPM
Played by: MR ABSOLUTT, Shubostar
Review: Dombrance has spent the last few years making music inspired by imaginary French politicians of the 1960s, '70s and '80s. To round of the project, he's pitched up on Discolypso to share the final two tracks - and a wealth of remixes. 'Bayou' is a certified throb-job in which alien-sounding synths and heady vocalisations rise above a pulsating, Italo-disco groove, while 'Cope' is a darker, techno-tempo workout rich in analogue electronics and driving grooves. There are too many remixes to mention them all, but our picks include Lindstrom's breezy, electrofunk-influenced Norse disco take on 'Bayou', Baldelli and Dionigi's hybrid dub disco/Afro-cosmic take on the same track and Francois K's suspenseful, stretched-out, slow-build revision of 'Cope'. Throw in a deliciously druggy, Italo-disco-goes-rave revision of the same cut by Diskjokke, and you have a genhinely brilliant package.

Review: Global Underground's' Select' series acts as a kind of annual nod to all the electronic music that floats their boat, with each digital download edition offering two (uncredited) CD-length mixes and full then versions of each included cut. 2024's edition - volume nine in total - is naturally packed to the rafters with tasty tracks from both established producers and rising stars. That means an attractive, immersive and frequently emotive mix of ambient-tinged deep electro (Pablo Bolivar & Nacho Sanchez), evocative tech-house (Dixon re-working Nandu's 'Around', Guy J's hypnotic, acid-flecked 'State of Trance'),pitched-down neo-trance dreaminess (Joris Voorn editing Solee), grandiose big room workouts (Fur Coat & Lexur), 21st century acid house (Phunkadelica remixing Damon Jee), and uplifting progressive house (D-Nox).

Glitterbox Archives Vol 4
Art Of Tones & Inaya Day - "Give My Love" (piano dub) - (5:03) 127 BPM Hot
Review: Glitterbox knows how to throw a party, and "Glitterbox Archives Vol 4" proves it once again. This EP collects four previously unreleased, dancefloor-tested gems, each offering a unique flavour of the label's signature sound. Kicking off with a bang is The Shapeshifters' "Try My Love (On For Size) (The Rub Dub)". This extended version of the already infectious disco anthem dives deeper into its groove, layering dubby effects and pulsating basslines that will have you moving right away. Next up, Michael Gray and Kelli Sae's "You're Gonna Make Me Dub Somebody Else" takes things down a notch. The "dub" moniker lives up to its name, stripping away some of the original's funk elements and emphasizing the hypnotic rhythm section. Kelli Sae's sultry vocals remain captivating, while the dub treatment creates a more introspective and atmospheric aura. Art Of Tones & Inaya Day's "Give My Love (Piano Dub)" is a revelation. This stripped-down version showcases the song's beautiful piano melody and Inaya Day's powerful vocals in a whole new light. Rounding out the EP is Qwestlife's "Hit It Off (Babert Remix)". Italian house maestro Babert injects his signature energy into the track, transforming it into a driving house anthem. Teni Tinks' vocals are chopped and looped, adding a playful touch to the infectious groove. This one is sure to get the crowd moving and leave them wanting more. A sparkly feast for disco devotees!

JuJu - "Wanting Touch" (instrumental) - (7:02) 129 BPM
Review: In an industry where the term 'veteran' is bandied about far too freely, Colin Curtis is the real deal! His DJing career goes all the way back to legendary Northern Soul club The Golden Torch in the late 60s. In the 70s, he was a resident at Blackpool Mecca alongside Ian Levine, where he became one of the first DJs to introduce the more modern sound of jazz-funk to the scene. By the mid-80s he'd become an early UK champion of house, too, but these days it's on the jazz-dance scene that he's most revered - and here he serves up a 26-track connoisseur's collection that shows why. Ranging from straight-up jazz and soul to soulful house and leaning heavily towards the Afro- and Latin-flavoured, some of these cuts are recent offerings, some date back as far as the 70s, but on jazz-dance floors, all will go down a treat.

Review: Next up from The Future Sound Of London team, a vibrant collection of highly energetic remixes as Papua New Guinea is given some tasty overhauls, courtesy of Jumpin' & Pumpin. First up, L. Major touches down for a vibrant, industrial rework, focussing on crunching drum sounds and moody breaks to match, before Nishesque fuses both hard hitting drum & bass with glittering progressive house, somehow! Next up, more breaksy goodness with Soul Central pumping through unique rhythmic grooves, followed by a killer closer as Dee Montero unleashes a vibrant, funky inspired finisher. Top work!

The Utopia Project - "File #3" (Mak & Pasteman remix) - (4:49) 126 BPM
Review: Nu Groove Records delivers another gem with "Nu Groove Edits, Vol. 4," a compilation that breathes new life into classic tracks from the label's illustrious history. This release spotlights the artists who shaped the legendary NYC label, offering re-interpretations by leading selectors of today. It kicks off with "Tonight's The Night" by NYC favorites How & Little (The Sound Vandals), given a fresh treatment by Italian duo NiCe7. The track retains its original charm while incorporating contemporary production elements, setting the tone for the rest of the journey. N.Y. House'n Authority's seminal "APT. 2A" gets reworked by UK deep tech aficionado Hugo Massien, resulting in a deeper, more introspective version that retains the groove of the original. The collection also features a remix of The Utopia Project's "File #3" by Mak & Pasteman, showcasing their signature blend of soulful vocals and driving basslines. Then it closes with a bang with the duo Honey Dijon & Luke Solomon re-imagining A.B.T.'s "Luv 2 Luv U." Their edit infuses the track with irresistible energy, making it a guaranteed dance floor mover.

Summer Vibe Edits
Believe What I Say - (7:05) 125 BPM
The Love That You Want - (6:34) 126 BPM
Review: Despite the title there's no particular discernible 'summer' theme to this latest batch of re-edits from German maestro Alkalino, but that's probably just as well - after all, no one wants to hear 4/4'd up remakes of holiday 'classics' like 'The Birdy Song' or 'Agadoo', do they?! Instead the Audaz boss serves up another typically classy bunch of reworkings, drawing on sources that include Change ft Jocelyn Brown's 'Angel In My Pocket' ('I Remember All So Clearly'), Lenny Williams' 'Midnight Girl' ('The Music Plays And Plays'), Central Line's 'Walking Into Sunshine' ('I Got To Get Away') and Talking Heads' 'Seen And Not Seen' ('A Larger Forehead'), to name but a few.

Busting out with the melodies in "Hot & Lost" to some package nostalgia in "Dance Mania," Chesster goes deep. "Tribute" pays homage to classic US house with that classic garage tinge and UK rave sentiments and funk-infused rhythms. Additionally, grab the the Prunk remix which focuses heavily on a dirty, deeper pulsating bassline with head nods to the Dirty Bird label.

To mark the occasion, the Bristol-based imprint has offered up this vast, 34-track compilation featuring new and unheard cuts from its ever-expanding family of artists. Naturally, it not only reflects Shall Not Fade's output, but also that of its various offshoots and series. So, there's plenty of high-grade deep house and immersive, breakbeat-driven deepness, but also surging, high-tempo rave-era nostalgia (see the tracks by TESTPRESS and Sheffield sorts Adelphi Music Factory), bassline (ABSOLUTE & HRSN), futurist techno (Marc Brauner), deep electro (Halo), hip-hop revivalism (Lydia Eisenbatter), progressive house and trance-influenced loveliness (MNL), and much more besides.

Review: Following a two-year gap in which he focused on his House Puff and Rutilence labels, Parisian house stalwart DJ Steaw returns to Kerri Chandler's Kaoz Theory imprint. The three original cuts on show are prime Steaw: rock-solid, high-grade house workouts full of audible nods to the halcyon days of US house in the nineties and early noughties. The headline attraction is 'Get Back To The Fonk', a bumpin', spacey and tactile chunk of peak-time ready deep house haziness blessed with plenty of percussive funk. Kaoz Theory regular Josh Buttler remixes, opting for a more loose-limbed rhythm track, echoing melodic snippets and cut-up, garage-style vocal samples. Elsewhere, 'In My House' is an organ and synth-sax-sporting slab of '90s New Jersey nostalgia and 'Don't Stop' is gently acid-flecked deep house hypnotism.

Played by: Distance
Review: Once again, the legendary skill sets of Alix Perez are on show for all to see, with this sizzling new collection of 140 rollers looking like another monumental collection from 1985 Music. First up, Psychosis gives us a swampy stomp through gnarly bass drones and bone-chilling atmospheric excitations, followed by Flowdan's killer appearance on 'Militia', a more abstract tweak fest across metallic reverberations and hard hitting, poetic lyricism. Next, glittering synth work gives us more rumbling goodness on 'Circadian', which sees Visages join the party, before Ebb lands of 'Hazchem' for one final smokey spike of original stepper flavour. Top stuff all around

Lead cut "City Lights" kicks off with some deep and melancholic bassline house next to some moody techno reminiscent of early Ben Klock in "10247". "The Clap" delivers some footwork inspirations next to some spookier electro wares in "Neophile" - banging. "Pisecean" gets all breakbeat and new age in the mix alongside some warehouse techno in "Regular Disturbances" alongside some melodic 'Mathew Johnson' inspired sounds in "Old Paris". Closing out the EP is "What" - a British Murder Boys-esque slice of Middle Eastern themed gothic EBM.

Planet Earth
Rush Hour - (6:07) 127 BPM
Review: Following years spent flitting between labels including Toy Tonics and Razor N Tape Reserve, COEO make their bow on Shall Not Fade. In keeping with the Bristol label's approach to digital releases, it's an expansive and action-packed affair. Title track 'Planet Earth' is one of the Munich-based duo's more forthright cuts to date - a thrusting, bongo-laden techno tempo rave workout propelled forwards by an insanely good (and rubbery) electronic bassline and psychedelic acid lines aplenty - while 'Satellite Bay' sounds like a cross between early '90s synth-pop, Kraftwerk and Euro-dance. Elsewhere, 'Rush Hour' gloriously joins the dots between hip-house, vintage MK productions and the Pet Shop Boys' Relentless' album; 'Kawasaki Racing Club' combines breakbeats and early UK progressive house sounds; and 'The Stage Is Yours' is a head-nodding, midtempo acid breaks affair.

Without You EP
Lex (Athens) & Dennis Liber - "No Time For Formalities" - (6:16) 128 BPM
Review: Almost two years on from his last appearance on the label - a collaborative release alongside German drummer, percussionist and producer Locke - Athenian veteran Lex returns to Delusions of grandeur. This time round it's a nominally a solo mission, though Locke and Dennis Liber do appear as featured collaborators on selected tracks. Our pick of a very strong bunch is 'Without You', a hypnotic and locked-in acid house roller full of mind-mangling TB-303 motifs, jazzy Rhodes licks and spacey chords, though the deep and funky, disco and jazz-funk tinged 'Strip Town' is almost as good. Locke and Guto Fernandez hook-up 'Purity' is a fine vocal number that sits somewhere between percussive Latin house and nu-disco, while Dennis Liber collaboration 'No Time For Formalities' sounds like a long-lost piano house track from 1988.

Review: Hilit Kolet makes her debut on Rekids with Hot Mess! Featuring remixes from the legendary Mike Dunn, it follows her own versions of Terry Farley & Wade Teo's "Why We Dance". It's her first EP for Radio Slave's label and the title track is a driving anthem that expertly blends marching rhythms with iconic house vocals, heightened in the 'Even Hotter Mix' which as its namesake suggests, spices up the intensity. Moving on, Chicago house maestro Mike Dunn infuses some stylish flair into his take, slowing down the groove, crafting an infectious bassline, and honouring the original's captivating vocals with warehouse style. Boom.

Boogie Angst Edition Four

Casbah 73 & Osunlade - "Let's Invade The Amazon" (Yoruba Soul mix) - (6:22) 127 BPM
Review: In keeping with the approach of its predecessors, the fourth annual Boogie Angst compilation brings together "cool cuts" from the past year and a smattering of exclusives and previously unreleased gems. As you'd expect from a label helmed by Kraak & Smaak, it's a genuinely joyous and celebratory affair, packed to the rafters with party-starting workouts. For proof, check the revivalist disco-boogie cheeriness of Titeknots' 'Feels Good 2 Me', the future soul shuffle of 'Treat U Good' by Moods, Noah Slee, Lyriya & Meron, the summery electrofunk sunshine that is Art of Tones' kaleidoscopic rework of LUXXURY's 'Just Like It Was Before', the Rhodes-laden warmth of Kraak & Smaak's nostalgic 'All I Need' and the spiritually-enriching Latin deep house shuffle of Osunlade's Yoruba Soul rework of his Casbah 73 collaboration, 'Let's Invade The Amazon'.

Supernova - (8:11) 125 BPM
Review: Monty Luke's follow up to his latest REkids release arrives via Nightdubbing and in the form first of all as "Supernova" - a deep blend of spacey textures with retro vocal samples. "Starstorms" delves further into the cosmic unknown with driving bass rhythms and raw pads, while "New World / Old Future" showcases Luke's mastery of scratch-like drums and intricate melodies. "Avantgarde Dancehall" adds a psychedelic twist with wonky sonics, while "Travelling 'Round The Sun'" closes the release with dub-rooted drums and spoken word poetry. Dope. Drawing from his Detroit roots, Luke's futuristic soundscapes continue to captivate, pushing boundaries into mainstream techno and cultural storytelling at its finest.

Featuring a wealth of exciting artists, we see the likes of Trail, Relict, GLM, Able, EVOLVED & more arrive with some fabulous feature work, unloading emotive harmonic structures and smooth drum arrangements for a truly ethereal underground experience. Our highlights for this one would of course have to include 'Halo' from Dominus, a smokey slink through crunchy synthetic gargles and metallic drumlines, backed up by the gnarly LFO work of Vektah's 'Rotation Heavy' and the head-low bops of 'Rhythm Choke' from Theoretical, again demonstrating the range of sonic beauty on display here.

Musica - (5:49) 125 BPM
Review: They've yet to make as much of an impact in the northern hemisphere but Melbourne-based outfit Mildlife are big news Down Under - their last (second) album 'Automatic' went Top 10 nationally in 2020, and won the ARIA award for Best Jazz Album to boot. Now they're back with long player #3, 'Closer', and it showcases a sound that's hard to pin down, with the album as a whole fusing elements of jazz-funk/jazz-fusion, Balearica, cosmic disco, psychedelic pop and modern indie, and even straying close to ambient territory on the title track. With the tempo seldom rising above walking pace ('Musica' being the only exception), there are no obvious dancefloor moments here - instead, it's an album that's best served whole, when in a mellower frame of mind...

Runnin'/AM_909
Runnin' - (7:05) 127 BPM Hot
Review: Deetron is back at Nu Groove, bringing a two-track release, 'Runnin' / AM_909,' and it's a soulful techno and house journey you won't want to miss. Drawing inspiration from Detroit's golden era, Deetron gifts us with two tracks that dive deep into the realms of melody and rhythm. "Runnin'" is a lively, techno adventure, featuring an irresistible piano-synth loop that'll have you moving to the beat. The drums hit with precision, and the bassline carries a hypnotic depth. As the track unfolds, layers of synths and effects gradually build up, leading to a standout breakdown with a stuttering drumbeat and swirling synths that heighten the anticipation. The return to the main groove is explosive, leaving you craving more. Now, "AM_909" takes a slightly more mellow approach, but the magic is just as potent. The bassline weaves a deep and hypnotic spell, complemented by swirling and psychedelic synths that create an atmospheric vibe. While it leans towards a more subdued tone than "Runnin'," it remains just as danceable. The breakdown is a gem, featuring a stripped-back groove that allows the bassline and synths to take the spotlight. The track then builds up to a crescendo before gracefully concluding with a gentle outro. It's an experience that adds a different flavour but is just as captivating as its counterpart.

Kind Of... Robotnick
Lipstick - (6:38) 126 BPM
What You Think Of Me - (5:19) 127 BPM
Review: "Kind of... Robotnick" the third installment in the Simple Music series, presents a diverse collection of tracks that sees the Italian legend provide both instrumental and vocal numbers. With tracks like "Lipstick" exploring the complexities of personal image and "What You Think of Me" delving into the insecurities of modern life, the lyrical narratives add depth and relatability to the album's themes. "Kiss Me Love Goodbye" offers a poignant reflection on the banality of contemporary romance, juxtaposed with a woman's refusal to succumb to trite expressions of affection. Meanwhile, dance-floor oriented instrumentals like "Moving Light" and "Frenzy Games" infuse energy and rhythm, showcasing Robotnick's adeptness at crafting infectious beats.

Review: Since 2022, Fort Romeau has been using the Romantic Gestures label as a vehicle for the more dancefloor-focused side of his output, usually via periodic, single-track releases. This mini-album tells the story so far, gathering tracks released at various points over the last 18 months. There's much to admire throughout, from the rumbling UKG style sub-bass, funky house beats and deep house textures of 'Hold Up', and the driving heaviness of 'The Man From Another Place' (where a shower of sparkling synth sounds descends on the weightiest of rhythm tracks), to the ghostly two-step deep house excellence of 'The Zone' and the immersive, ultra-deep wonder that is standout 'Melody Dub'. 'A Thousand Times At Night', with is booming sub and poignant pianos, is also superb.

Released on the renowned Defected label, the song is a full-fledged house music fiesta, brimming with energy and infectious grooves. The track opens with a powerful punch, its four-on-the-floor beat setting the pace for a pulsating dance floor journey. Elba's clever use of a catchy trumpet melody takes center stage, weaving its way through the song and leaving a lasting impression. The addition of his own processed vocals adds another layer of intrigue, further solidifying the track's playful and captivating atmosphere.

Next to get the treatment is Brass Construction's 'Changin' (1975), followed by - among others - Rare Function's 'Disco Function' (1976), Johnnie Taylor's 'Disco Lady' (1976) and Sylvester's 'Dance (Disco Heat)' (1978). That leaves just two tracks whose source had our disco detectives scratching their heads - including the infuriatingly familiar 'Funky People' - but you get the general idea!

"Sprungboard" showcases his signature blend of intriguing percussion, subtle noise manipulation, and an irresistible groove.

For us, this is a project best absorbed through the attached continuous DJ MIX, but our standouts would have to include the brain-boggling wave synth work of The Rumblist's 'Mind Blown', alongside the more throwback metallic dinks of Lucas's 'Light & High Beauty' original. Sensational stuff from all involved.

Good Times (Pig&Dan's Melodic mix) - (7:21) 127 BPM Hot
Good Times (Pig&Dan's Stripped mix) - (7:59) 127 BPM
Review: The third and final set of Equanimity remixes sees Spencer Brown tap a variety of artists to rework tracks from the album. &friends impress with an understated but powerful version of "Awu Wemadoda". The combination of rolling tribal drums and subtle percussion with Ladysmith Black Mambazo's soulful vocals is nothing short of spellbinding. In stark contrast, Pig & Dan's 'Melodic' take on "Good Times" is a lush, woozy deep house track, powered by a resonating bass. The pair also drop a leaner 'Stripped' version of the track, which resounds to cacophonous filters. Changing tact again, Jamie Stevens' house version of "Papi's Cenote" is led by gently spiralling acid lines and plaintive piano lines.
