Review: House of Disco welcomes a new name to the roster: debutant SHEE, an Irish producer that the label has already tipped for future greatness. The four tracks on show are certainly quietly impressive, with the Irishman offering up a varied selection that's undeniably a cut above the norm. Check first opener "Our Love", an intoxicating, spine-tingling affair that sees SHEE wrap undulating acid lines, atmospheric electronics and blissful female vocal samples around an elastic house groove, before turning your attention to the warmer, jazzier and subtly disco-tinged track that follows, "Forgotten". Title track "Jiraya" is wonderfully dreamy, colourful and vibrant, with Shee painting bold brush strokes over a tough house beat, while closing cut "Funk, Nah" adds a little mutant P-funk hustle to a chunky deep house groove.

Review: In sporting terms, statistics tell us that teams do better on "home turf". It seems a fitting title then for House of Disco's latest multi-artist extravaganza, which is the musical equivalent of a thumping 5-0 home win with free beers and hugs at full time. The standard is uniformly high throughout, from the bounding bounciness of LPM's rap-sampling disco-house cut "Get With It", to the impeccably warm and sun-kissed jazz-house vibes of Purple Ice's "Adeus". In between you'll find the rolling, synth-heavy warmth of Mix & Fairbanks' deliciously loved-up "Shergar's Revenge" and "Me, You, Us", a chunky sample-house number by Shee full of swirling strings, looped guitar riffs, hazy chords and righteous spoken word samples.

Review: Two fierce and firin' nu-disco/disco-house bullets courtesy of Irish producer SHEE make up this latest from Eats Everything's Edible label. 'Get Loose (On & On)' has something of a DJ Sneak-ish cut-up feel, but with a BPM count that harks back more to the mid-90s than to today's considerably lowered tempos. The accompanying 'Get Up And Dance' is a little less frantic but no less strutty, and sports a looped "get up and dance" vocal that puts this writer vaguely in mind of 'Renegade Master' in its sheer relentlessness and attitude. One for when the crowd's got plenty of vodka and Red Bull inside it!

Review: Fresh from outings on Stamp Records and True Romance, Monologue Records and Sterns Edits founder Ben Gomori makes his bow on House of Disco. There are two top-notch original productions to savour: the squelchy bass and even squelchier 'acid' thrills of nu-disco-tinged jack-track '7am at Wintergarten', and the similarly TB-303 laden - but altogether more spacey-sounding - electronic house bounce of 'Mars Joint'. The accompanying remix package is predictably strong, with Massimo Pagliara adding a touch of star-fall brilliance to '7am at Wintergarten', before Jordan Nocturne beefs up 'Mars Joint' in an Italo-goes-acid-house style. The SHEE Remix of the same track, meanwhile, is a tough-but-heady techno take that will appeal to many modern DJs.

Review: David Hanke and co are back with a new album, Paradise Lost, which arrives just one short year on from their remarkable debut long player, Sidewinders. Inspired by Milton's epic poem of the same name, Hanke now presents 12 "dark, mysterious and unpredictable" cuts that in his words capture his own personal feelings of having "been to paradise and then lost it". Judging by the likes of the Dick-Tracy-with-the-shakes vibes of the title track or the fierce hip-hop assault of "Fire (featuring Aspects)", he clearly hasn't lost it at all!

Review: Following the release of his debut album last year on Black Sun, Robin De Wolf aka Phara returns with a four-tracker for Par Grindvik's label. Paramount One is a real mixed bag. At one end of the spectrum, there's the shimmering, glitchy sound scapes on the title track, while at the opposing end, "Mordecai" sounds like a modern update of Dave Clarke's "Red" techno menace. De Wolf continues to surprise with "Shee", where tough break beats support spaced-out synth stabs. Finally, on "LSK-500", he strips away all musical elements to deliver a masterclass in tough, drum-heavy techno that has echoes of DJ Shufflemaster.
