a lot has happened to blm since his last solo ep back in 2008, fatherhood being the main factor for his absence. thankfully the nappy changing musical magician didnt stop tinkering with his synths in that time has come back with a string of forthcoming productions that mark a real step up in quality for him. so, first up blm releases on home soil on his own fof label. garage is back keeps things silky smooth – simplicity is the key here, the percussive elements building slowly before the evocative vocal of suz brings a hypnotic sexyness to the whole affair. step to this is the logical progression from his last fof release (believe in love) with its skippy beats and uplifting stabs being a sure winner for the coming summer. mulletover promoter / dj / all around sexual dynamo geddes provides a rather splendid dub remix of garage is back on the flip. cleverly using key elements of the original to keep the flava but dipping the tempo to give it more of a groove based feel. we think its a high watermark for the man.. check it

ltd 2010 repress !!! marco carolas string of recent releases on plus8 and his own 2m imprint are now effortlessly hurtling forward under the weight of their own momentum and the bloody cash ep shows no sign of relenting. in fact if its possible, this collection of four new combustible tunes adds another dimension to his already substantial repertoire. on the title track bloody cash, carola immediately shows his intent, letting fly with a spiraling tribal groove full of bright, crisp percussive elements that stretch skywards towards the sun. the tough, earthy beats keep everything rooted to the ground as he taps into some age-old hedonistic urge, creating a universal groove that rolls out across the oceans before breaking on the shores of each continent with an all encompassing call to dance. the main body of the track incorporates a straight synth stab doused in reverb that sets the scene for the finely crafted main keyboard riff, which is an accomplishment in itself. alternating between two complimentary parts, it elevates the backing track to another level. perfectly balanced and enhanced for maximum danceability, its without doubt one of carolas finest works to date

heavy support from the likes of marcus intalex, jubei, ulterior motive, bailey, loxy, ed rush etc.

nice price deal !!! >a night on the wonk< is on an experimental tip with highly addictive horn and chime hooks. the gemmy remix takes the chime section, gives it some of the well known purple treatment and turns it into a highly distinctive but slightly sickly intro. i say sickly but thats perhaps because i have listened to it a lot of times in a fairly short period of time. however we are then treated to a bleepy roller with moderate variation to keep things interesting. this makes it perfect for an early set or casual listening. >detached reality< crackles its way through some haunting vocals and evil guitar riffs creating a tense but soothing atmosphere ? detaching you from reality, sinking you into your seat while your mind starts to play tricks with itself. what are we really here for?

a dark bassline and classic synth stabs keep things moving along, with the occasional surprise of some classic 909 claps and shakers within. this tracks are crafted specifically for that moment during the party when the crowds minds and ears have combined with the djs master plan, and everyone is locked firmly in place ready for the ride. its a powerful heads down dance floor bomb that simply works.

>afro rock vol. 1< is one of the most important compilations of heavy original 70s afro funk and soul to be released in recent years. originally surfacing on duncan brookers indie kona label in early 2001, the album single-handedly kick-started the thirst among jazz, funk and soul fans and diggers to rediscover lost music from africa made during the 60s and 70s from a time when many countries were gaining independence and celebrating a pan-african identity within their music. the album was one of the first to reach a far different audience to the traditional ?world music? market and spawned many further projects and labels in its wake. a year later, the >nigeria 70< compilation surfaced on strut and labels like soundway and analog africa would continue to unearth amazing lost gems from the motherland.

ferrispark records has always been known for its devotion to unique and soulful releases heavily influenced by the deep sounds of detroit and chicago. carrying on in the same manner is scott fergusons, disco and deep house infused, >midwest born & bred ep<. the first mix of >keep on lovin me< mixes dirty detroit rawness with chi-town acid to get dance-floors stirring while the second mix is more reminiscent of mid-90s nyc and chicago house. in the late hours of the night, flip the record over for the seriously grooving, slow, deep, and druggy, >staggerin & stumblin<.

the second release since their return to vinyl, soul heavens vinyl cuts 2 is another chance for the label to open up its box of tricks and showcase their latest & greatest tracks for the soulful house community to enjoy! bringing together new tracks from sean mccabe, johnny montana & aphrodisiax, soul heaven once again show their dominance of the genre with each track perfectly polished & sounding great. a real taste of miami for those whove missed out, and once again a welcome return for this much loved & influential label.
