Review: Volume 14 in the series, so regular buyers should know what to expect by now. For the uninitiated through, the 'Playa D'en Bossa' series harks back to an earlier era of 'Balearic', before the term became synonymous with ethereal chill-out grooves, whale song and fluttering Spanish guitars, and when it referred instead to an electic, open-minded approach to programming DJ sets. Accordingly, the 23 tracks here range from house and nu-disco (see cuts from Dis-Connection, Alex Twitchy and Dr Basement) to trance and EDM (see, eg, Tom-E Project's 'Shine' or Little Madam's 'Yeah Uh Uh Ah'), much of it served with a distinct Europop twist, with Joma's 'Space Virus' and Nick Saley's 'Bengal' among the highlights.
Review: Glitch City steps up to the wheels of steel to kick off his new year with this cracking dig into the Sub-liminal archives and the results slap in quite a few cool directions. Firstly, the mix is super tight and really creative. Secondly, Sub-liminal have such a sick discography that's all pure timeless dancefloor D&B murkage, you're guaranteed to get your hands some fantastic tear-ups here. Thirdly, it's got Oz's 'Like That', which remains one of the most unique beats in D&B. Naughty across the board, both Glitch City and Sub-liminal have delivered something special here.
