Review: Toolroom's annual White Island compilation bounces back this year with a wide range of house styles. There's the lush melodies and breathy vocals of label owner Mark Knight's "Make You Happy". Meanwhile, vocal tracks are, as always, a prominent feature. Pete Griffiths delivers a soulful track in the shape of the piano-led, celebratory "Get Together", while Melanie Ribbe's "Big" is a more subtle affair, with haunting vocals riding a rolling, techy groove. In contrast, ESSEL delivers a throbbing, primal workout in the form of "Sweat". Havoc & Lawn's "Reflection" offers another take on the perennial sound - this time, the focus is on a brittle, stepping rhythm.
Review: Toolroom Miami 2023 is this year's hottest soundtrack to one of the most anticipated conferences in dance music. Included on the album are 50 of the finest underground dance anthems from the likes of: Jay Vegas with his hot disco dub take on label chief Mark Knight and Lukas Setto's "Get With You Tonight", Aussie Kristin Velvet with the heads-down groove of "Perfect Division", through to the deep swing of Hannah Wants' remix of Eskuche's "The Sun", AZETE's deep down and dirty "Love Me Loco" and the sweltering tribal tech house of Tony Cortez & Orito Cantora's "La Negra" feat. Orito Cantora - plus much more.
