BROWN & FRANDANSKI VS ORIGAMI
CROSS THE POND (DROP MUSIC) 12 - 102814
SYNTAX EXCLUSIVE! The Inland Knights Drop Music imprint serves up another fine slice of house funk courtesy of Brown (Myna/Drop Music/Aroma) Frandanski & Origami. "Switched On" the A1 is a bumping slice of house funk very much on the Inland Knights tip with a male vocal that has a similar vibe as Gwen Stefani's "Holla Back", very hip shit! "Not The Only One" is next up on the A and has a more funk fuelled vibe with a slick funk bassline, dope shuffling beats and a real cool vocal too. Rounding off the ep is "My Baby's Ass" another shaking funky house number based around some great old school soul / funk samples and a bit of disco action.(DRM052)HOUSE- 5/07/07-UK

BRETT JOHNSON
INSIDE OUT (HI PHEN) 12 - 104269
Brett Johnson follows up his biggie for Freerange with another killer for the Hi Phen MD imprint. The ep kicks off with "Hard On The Eyes" a jacked up deranged workout that sounds like Green Velvet mixed up with Tiefschwarz, Troy Pierce and Derrick Carter. Totally fucked up shit that both house and techno dj's WILL freak on! On the flip Brett teams up with Freaks' Justin Harris on "Butterflies" for a Music For Freaks styled beefy jacking house bomb that is deep, funky and quite the party starter. Rounding off the ep is "Emotional Disruptions" where Brett gets into his Seasons styled material, beautiful, melodic and funky as they come.(MD018)HOUSE- 5/21/07-UK
DAHLBACK & DAHLBACK
SWEDEN 10 CANADA 0 (TURBO) 12 - 104346
The cousins are back on Turbo, back with a vengeance!! Jesper & John bring an all-out dancefloor assault so get ready...'Bempa' sports an uber-squelchy synth riff and some crazy distortion effect applied to the kicks that makes sounds we've never dreamed of until now! 'Rolle Niva' is pure genius, combining sounds from 50's sci-fi movies alongside manic sweeps, jacking beats and some amazing sequencing. Unbelievable. The finisher is 'Tumba', rolling, jacking and pretty much annhilating, just like the two tracks before it. Tiga once again does a brilliant A&R'ing job with these two clever Swedes!(TURBO039)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/21/07-GE
SHREWD
I AM A FOOL *SWIRL PEEPZ* (SHREWD) 12 - 104381

MIDNIGHT BLUE EDITS (ARCO EDIT) 12 - 104241
Arcobaleno boss and Italo afficianado Serge Santiago delivers his best re-edit yet, this time reworking a pair of gems from the catalogue of Italo legend Gino Soccio. The a-side reworks Soccio's early 80's hit 'Remember', taking the distinctive percussion loop and key stabs from the original and turning it into a bass-fueled DJ tool that sounds brilliant on a proper system. The flip sees his rework of 'The Visitors', again faithfully sticking to the vibe of the original while creating an enormous dancefloor buzz.(ARCOEDI204)ELECTRO DISCO- 5/21/07-UK
BUMPER
COSMOPOLITAN LOVER (20 20 VISION) 12 - 104244
The 20:20 crew keep the flow of quality electronic disco rolling here with this fine release by Bumper. 'Cosmopolitan Lover' features a wicked Prince-like male vocal that delivers the title hook so well you'd think it was the Purple one himself behind the mike. Bleepy synths and a rolling funk bassline add to the decadent fun. Two remixes from Electric Press really prime this tune for the dancefloor, squeezing even more funk from the original with some wicked programming touches and edits.(VIS149)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/21/07-UK
PRESSURE DROP
YOU'RE MINE *TIM DELUXE* (GREAT STUFF) 12 - 104265

FOX N WOLF
YOUTH ALCOHOLIC *ONDA/DE CRECY (KITSUNE) 12 - 104266
'Youth Alcoholic', the anthem for a new generation? Fox N Wolf spit some grime, booty boozey crunky hip house punk party igniting action.

ITCHY DOG (DUBSIDED) 12 - 103684
HUGE RELEASE on Dubsided!! The red-hot Jesse Rose is up to his old tricks as he beings you a bucketload of funk spread across this 3 tracker. 'Itchy Dog' is a tracky, loopy slice of fidget action punctuated by occasional bhangra samples, twisted bassline pressure and a jackin' Chicago swing that will have the Heather/Justin Long fans all in a lather. The flipside cuts are both stellar as well, with both 'Everyday This' and 'Second Letter First' offering up some techy, filthy and dirty grooves. BACK IN DA HOUSE!!!(DSD012)HOUSE- 4/30/07-UK

The man is a master and he shows you why once again!(12RDJSX672)TECH HOUSE- 5/21/07-UK
NOVA DREAM SEQUENCE
DREAM 8 *DJ YELLOW* (COMPOST) 12 - 103978

PLANET FUNK
STATIC *SATOSHI TOMIIE* (BUSTIN LOOSE) 12 - 104104

EROTIC DISCOURSE (20 20 VISION) 12 - 91669
Woolford's 'Erotic Discourse' is getting more hype than the Super Bowl even and after one listen to this NASTY electronic houser we know why.

GOD IS GREEN *KIERAN* (SKINT) 12 - 104047
'God Is Green' is the brand new single from Alloy Mental (aka Phil Kieran, Martin J Corrigan and Danny Todd). Released on LIMITED GREEN VINYL it sounds like like Nitzer Ebb on a collision course with Iggy & The Stooges while tough techno bangs in the background. Phil Kieran goes solo on a remix that adds a dirty jacking twisted dancefloor edge to the track sounding like Ark / Mossa material.(SKINT131)HOUSE- 5/14/07-UK

Bryan Jones returns to his own Ringside imprint in good form. Bringing with him newcomers J Lettow and william Alexanderfrom Lingo Recordings fame. Kicking off is "Make You Move" a pure funk bomb, complete with stellar piano and horn loops and those trademarked Bryan Jones drums that never fail. Next up is "Vibe Like Tonight" is the pick of the platter. Building up with a tough as nails disco loop that drops into a delicious groove half way through. Flip for "Hold Tight" a sinfully sleazy hip house jam already receiving massive support from the usual suspects. Last is "Rub On The Fat Booty", another rap sample fiasco with a bumpy bassline, vocal bits and a very twisted vibe.(RR003)HOUSE- 5/14/07-US

CANDY DEALERS
OOH LA LA (AGAVE) 12 - 103098
Jay West and Christian Mallloni have joined together to create a hybrid filter funk sound all of their own. The originalreaks havoc on the dance floor creating serious synth sweeps and bass drops to keep this track versatile and improvisational throughout. The vocal sample quirky as it is rings in your head while the percussive rhythm and killer bassline drithis piece home. Nightshift boss man Hipp E steps up for the B-side with a new style and brings down the house. Extended peak time mix here with big synth rides, crispy rhythm and big kick. Wicked breakdown riddled with bits from the original and ever expanding sonic modulation takes this cut to the limit.(AGAVE0718)HOUSE- 5/14/07-US
JOI CARDWELL & STEAL VYBE
WANDERLUST (SEASONS) 12 - 103288
Driving tempo with a deep sound, lively percussion, light delicate keys, charging bass and Joi's vocals very lush and sounding great in this style of production. Soaring synth solotops the proceedings off and graces most of the track. StealVybe doing what they do best. Also on the A-side is a downtepo jazz version with some serious instrumentation, a definite not to miss and on the b-side a very long dub that turns the track out.(SL32)HOUSE- 5/14/07-US

Lastly "Just One Groove" takes the vocal from the main cut,throwingitover a nasty late night groove reminiscent of some of the East Coast sounds of the mid nineties.

MIGUEL MIGS
THOSE THINGS W/LISA SHAW (SALTED) 12 - 103326
Featured track from Miguel's latest full length with Lisa Shaw on vocals. The original has an electronic edge combining old school funk elements with new school synth textures and melodies all backed up by some tough and dirty bumpin' house beats. Second mix on the A-side is by Simon Grey, he flips the script and takes us on a ride into old school disco inspired territory with an impressive musical styling that showcases his unique and complex arrangements and change ups. Flip for Miguel's "Migs Salted Dub Deluxe" mix with ample amounts of dance floor pressure and funk appeal. Staying close to the same vibe and flavor of the original while using minimal vocal elements leaving the main focus on the dirty groove.To close we have a take by Scott Wozniak deliviering a straight up NYC style deep house affair. A bouncing bass line bumps on top of some crisp and tight Wozniak beats while a bubbly organ key progression sets the tone and sits nicely underneath the vocal all together maintaining a steady groove andkeeping the energy moving.
