>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.
truly beautiful deep house records are things to be treasured, akin to proper songs that will last the test of time, not made to meet a fleeting fad. this is one of those records and a real pinnacle & departure for blm & pawas. although the term deep is an oft overused one, >waiting game< personifies the genres true key traits with a subtly moving groove that gradually builds, using layers of subtle percussion and a rich, warm synth motif to make a rich tapestry of sounds before finally introducing the beautiful female vocal that gives the track its name. patrice scott liked the track so much that he agreed to remix it - his first ever outside of his own, excellent, sistrum label. using plenty of the original track parts but taking it a different direction, patrice really has come up with something special. the track moves along with snippets of the main vocal and clever use of the main synth, the groove being underpinned by patrice s classic sense of production before moving into a more classic >detroit< ending - a mindset with a bigger, more dramatic sensibility

nice price deal !!! 8 years after his first vinyl release georg levin can already be described as a long-time yet unlikely member of berlins electronic music scene. with both his solo project and his production outfit wahoo he is definitely too much on the soulful side to be a typical representative of the techno and rock sound the city is known for. however, it may be this supposedly alien surrounding that gives his compositions and productions a distinctive blend. to his credit georg also had a no.1 on traxsource in late 2009 as a precursor to the release of this, his second album album and debut for bbe.

revys music is strange. there really is no better way to put it. having grown up in the pacific northwest usa before moving to tokyo, the influence and contrast of nature and technology are made clear in his mesmerizing pieces. his sound is one that is complicated, rapidly revolving between themes which are at times serious, beautiful, strong and others almost comical and ridiculous. each track encompasses such an emotional gamut that they themselves seem to be intelligent entities.
odaka (also known as rawakari) delivers some nice abstract techno in the best idm tradition. he dabbles here with a flurry of machines, to obtain that distinctive analogue sound to go back to the basics. even the graphic design is the result of a more back to basics technique, without the assistance of a computer once again, but rather via sketching and plain and simple drawing. a very sincere and sympathetic release on this belgium label (brussels to be precise, wallonia, roughly same areas as confined). record is mastered by pascal demez (herrmutt lobby, kadah/vresky) check!

dolly continues after the great jakob korn release... steffi and old klakson label partner dexter colaborate. dexter drops dolly 2 with some mad old schoolish detroit influence called 1992... this is what we would have loved to hear from reese! with the trade mark sharp beats of dexter injected with phat funking kms techno (including reese bassline). redbox is the same recipe. dancefloor orientated old school house and techno influences with powerful production skills. big peaktime tracks without doing the standard tricks... pure dancefloor blizz!
sometimes collaborations really work. when the combined energies of two very different people come together in a studio something magical happens and they also have a lot of fun. dimitri nakov and martin dawson (king roc) are two very exciting young producers with very different approaches to music and sampling, and their combined energies has created something glorious & original called sao paulo nights for john digweeds ever impressive and diverse musical melting pot, bedrock...
