now hitting release number six, fly by night music serves up something slightly different from riccio (bosconi // super value), complete with a remix from craig smith (6th borough project), for its latest offering. this is an equally classy release but more of an obvious disco tip. coming in a press of 200 limited blue vinyl and a letter press sleeve, this is another boutique package from fbnm. the man behind the jungle way ep is italian riccardo zanaroli aka riccio, who most recently appeared on the widely lauded bosconi compilation bosconi stallions. a dj, collector, producer and record seller, riccio is a staple on the italian scene and brings plenty of louche disco funk to this release.

polymath james leyland kirby must surely have one of the most confounding cvs in the business: he spent years taking the piss out of the music industry with anthems rallying against the (vv)mcps, he notoriously fell out with various well known record labels for reasons you ll just have to google, goaded aphex twin with a series of tributes and channelled his love of everything from falco (rock me amadeus), chris de burgh, frankie goes to hollywood and stockport karaoke nights into a stream of increasingly bizzare 7 s back in the early noughties. but at the same time he was responsible for releasing some of the very earliest material from boards of canada (hell interface: 1997), made a ruck of frankly groundbreaking industrial electronic records, brought new beat to the worlds attention and, in 1999, made his first album as the caretaker, a project that would go on to release some of the most loved ambient/ lynchian albums of recent times.

a label dedicated to the freedoms of expression, the delicacies held above genre stereotypes, and the overall pursuit of unorthodoxy. we are a collection of artists, neither here nor there, visionaries who believe in the subtle variations that are frequently overlooked in todays cluttered electronic spectrum. we are devoted to the imperfections of contemporary dance music, the 4/4 pulsations of a universal language, an unconventional mindset, and, of most significance, the nuanced bedroom producer secluded from contemporary disorde

it is something of tradition for tosca to get their albums remixed. indeed, they once released a record comprised entirely of 13 mixes ofone song, 2002s *different tastes of honey*, variations on *honey* from 1999s *suzuki*. it is a way of keeping things fresh, injecting someuncertainty into proceedings, knocking things out of balance in order to check how they should be re-aligned. after releasing *odeon* earlier this year, tosca comes back with *tlapa - the odeon remixes*. *tlapa* meaning, this life arouses pure adventure. the remixes come from bredon moeller, joyce muniz, siler city, ltj experience, beat pharmacy, marlow & truby, sephane lefrancois, afg aka antye greie and rodney hunter. the double vinyl comes with a cd-copy included.

another handy 12 inch of dj tools, de- and re-constructed from the raw materials of james holdens *the inheritors* album and thoroughly road-tested in his own dj sets. this time it is the turn of trippy instrumental album interlude *the illuminations*. in its 12 inch version club incarnation, holdens mystical cascading arpeggios are juxtaposed with a skittering detroitian thump to cater for a multitude of bewilderment-inducing dancefloor moments the world over. the drumsolo strips things back to functional old school techno basics as we get to eavesdrop on holden jamming with his modified dr-110 drum machine. finally, the extended arpsolo draws out the melodies of the original into a dreamy boards of canada-esque bonus indulgence.
