Review: Bocca Grande is a musical collaboration between Tokyo artists Kousuke Ishida and Yuka Kobayashi. Ishida has a long history with electronic music, producing since the age of 16, while Kobayashi is a classically trained pianist. As you would expect, this collaboration, previously explored on the Cray And Pinky single in 2008 bears some rich fruit, flitting between the bumping house of opener "Abend" to the downtempo hip-hop of "Below My Hands" and dusky slo-mo grooves of "Even If". It's undoubtedly Kobayashi's piano playing that steals the show however, with his upwardly spiraling melodies on "Slow Gravity", improvisational keywork on "Room In A Clutter" and jazzy tones of closer "As Adele" all contributing to what is a one-of-a-kind album.

Review: What better way to celebrate a decade in business than by getting Chicago deep house legend Larry Heard to select and mix a double-disc compilation of label highlights? Hats off, then, to Rebirth, who managed to persuade Mr Fingers himself to deliver his first commercially available DJ mix. As you'd expect from both label and DJ, it's a wonderfully atmospheric and melodious affair, with Heard selecting and blending emotion-rich tracks and mixes from Chromatic Filters, Bocca Grande, NuFrequency, Tevo Howard, Motor City Drum Ensemble and James Teej. The first disc, in which Heard races through 28 tracks in just over 70 minutes, is particularly memorable.

Review: Rebirth reach number eight in their long running series of essential label cuts, and on paper it looks to be the best yet. Thankfully, the music inside also lives up to our expectations, with Morgan Geist's remix of Bocca Grande's "Procedure 2011 (reprise) offering an early highlight, with its satisfyingly squelchy bassline and percussive touches that have made Geist one of New York's most in demand producers over the last ten years. Other highlights include Todd Terry's reworking of Ellesse's "New York Boy", which brings some classic 90s flavour to the compilation, Tevo Howard, whose Chicago prowess is displayed finely in the dusky FM coated "Crazy Love", and the Jacques Renault remix of "Manetta's Fine Food", subtly bringing in numerous melodic elements over its bumping, clattering rhythms.
