Review: No one does contemporary disco like Dimitri From Paris. And no one has the compilation licensing clout like Defected. Naturally this is a match made in glitterball heaven as DFP spans 40 years of grooves with a spotless collection of his own edits and upfront jams. Ranging from his own twists on standard disco gems such as "Le Freak" and "Lost In Music" to the likes of Disclosure's "F For You" and Todd Terje's "Delorean Dynamite" this is, without question, one of Defected's most extensive, expansive and exciting collections to date - which really is saying something. A natural fit for all house, disco and funk fans young and old.
Review: As Sebas Ramis' Sub_Urban Music label gets set to celebrate a decade in deep house, the label's compilation series reaches its eighth 'chapter'. Given the significance of the anniversary, you'd expect the label's latest trawl through its' archive of released and unreleased music to be extra special, and it most certainly is. Rich in rolling, deep, groovy, heart-warming and sun-kissed house sounds, 'Chapter 8' is packed to the rafters with high-grade, club-ready treats. Our picks of a very strong bunch include JT Donaldson's tactile and evocative remix of Ramis's 'High Hopes' (as well as the same remixer's wonderful rework of Dirtytwo's 'Hopeless'), Folamour's deliciously dusty revision of Guri's 'Everything I Do', the rubbery, glassy-eyed loveliness of Sebb Junior's 'Need a Break', and the bouncy brilliance that is 'Endless Luminosity' by Scott Diaz.
