Review: With artwork reflecting some classic James Bond-isms, Mia Mendi makes a triumphant return to Watergate Records only months after her debut. Back in remix form, no less - TH;EN, Widerberg, and Moonwalk are employed to take on Mendi's production suite, with the 'melodic techno specialists' collectively injecting some sidewinding dynamics into her originals. TH;EN goes big room on the stutter in a remix of "Distant Present" while Widerberg pulls out massive swathes of acid and huge lunges of bass reworking the title track, with Moonwalk crowning itself as the sundowner epic of this release for sure.

Review: This latest collection from Mia Koden is a great example of just how exciting the more abstract ends of the bass music spectrum can be, with four brand new mysteries to unravel. First up, the uneasy atmospherics and spooky textures of '10easy' lead the way with an unnerving feel from the off, followed by the choppy drum sweeps and high-ended hat-taps of 'Racket'. Next, 'Sludge' arrives for a gnarly march through pulsating pad swipes and clackering percussion below, before the delicate drum work and heavily delayed vocal samples of 'Apres Vous' then bring this project to a close.

Review: Veteran British producer Thomas Gandey (aka Cagedbaby) teams up with Mancunian Youtube stars Mia Mendi (Hydera) on their third outing, following up impressive releases on Stil Vor Talent and Los Suruba's Nazca Records. This once comes courtesy of Berlin powerhouse Watergate, featuring the late night, neon-lit boogie-down business of "Ubi" complemented by its seductive vocals. Also on offer is the brooding, acid-tinged dark disco journey of "Gatekeeper" followed by the slinky and hypnotic mood music of "Nightliner" packed full of sparkling retro synth sounds and immaculate rhythm programming.

Review: Glasgow's Mia Dora have been made a big impression over the last 12 months, following a string of on-point EPs and a much-played remix of Roots Manuva for Big Dada. Here, they return to original home Moda Black with another chunk of melancholy peaktime house - all twinkling melodies, robust bottom end and woozy, touchy-feely, pitched-down vocals. DJ T takes the best bits of the original - the chords, melodies and vocals - and layers them on top of a chunky, bass-heavy new groove on his rework, while label bosses Jaymo and Andy George give the original a total overhaul. Their interpretation - fluid, energetic, deep and bassy, with some delicious new strings - is arguably the best thing on the EP.

Review: Glaswegian producers Mia Dora are the latest combo to be signed to Jaymo and Andy George's hyped Moda Black imprint. This first EP showcases their trademark style, a woozy mix of thickset tech-house low-end, woozy deep house synths and R&B vocal cut-ups. The moody "The Awesome Sauce" sets the tone, coming on like a future anthem for those who like their beats crunchy and their grooves smooth. "Occam's Razor" sounds like a sweaty hoe-down between Waze & Odyssey and Eats Everything, while "Mantis" sees them flexing their rave muscles with a thoroughly debaunched rinse-out. "Half A Devil", meanwhile, is woozy, leftfield and altogether slightly odd - but rather fine with it.

Review: Those who've been paying attention to JD Twitch's sets over the last 12 months will undoubtedly have heard "Un.sub", the title track from this excellent EP from former Moda Black combo Mia Dora. A wild combination of relentless cowbells, bass-heavy bottom-end and warped electronics, it sounds like techno from another dimension. The rest of the EP is similarly impressive, from the bumpin' late night house flex of "Raw Kiss", to the surging techno of "Et Le Mein". The EP also features a woozy, off-kilter collaboration with Glaswegian veteran MASH ("Feathers"), which laces a kooky spoken female vocal over sparse beats, foreboding bass and atmospheric electronics.

Review: Fledging label Teng follows up on the recent impressive Neville Watson record with Mias Void's Tactics. Coming from roughly the same sonic angle as Watson, the title track features eerie acid lines and ponderous chords underpinned by doubled up claps. "Believer" meanwhile is more restrained and informed by the modern European and UK trance sounds - think Nathan Fake and Traum - as lullaby melodies unfold over tinkling rhythms. The final track is also an introspective one, with the seductive piano tinkling and warbling bass prevailing on the Barking Dogs version of "Tactics"- an understated end to the latest missive from this promising label.

Review: This year saw Berlin clubbing institution Watergate turn 20 years old. To celebrate the milestone, they took the experience outside the club for a full weekend rave, plus the release of this mammoth 20 track compilation of new and unreleased tracks. Highlights come from legendary artists such as the ever reliable Henrik Schwarz who appears with the highly engineered soul of "You Need Attitude", veteran of the scene Sasha gets a seriously heads-down groove happening on "Wolf Cider", Hamburg maximal heroes Extrawelt deliver as expected on the hypnotising "Rover" and former Mobilee co-head Anja Schneider gets the hands in the air on the uplifting house of "Can't You See Me No More?' plus many others.

Review: Mark Knight's label brings together some of the sounds that were showcased over the course of the ADE. Basement Jaxx kick start the compilation with the stomping disco house of "Never Say Never", while Harry Romero shows that he's not just a US house head. Working with Doorly, he drops "The Truth", a tough techno track, led by heavy claps. The techno influence lingers on Maceo Plex's "Conjure Superstar", which features an unusual combination of rave sirens and sublime, 808 State-style synths. As is the case in the wider electronic world, this reinvention of the past is in abundance on Amsterdam 2014 and apart from Plex's track, the most impressive contribution is Dosem's "Chase the Link", which sounds like a particularly dark version of vintage Lil Louis.
