the fried tofu crew follow up their excellent first course with another tasty selection! on the a-side sweet soulful voices catch you from the first try on. but dont be hasty, or you will burn your tongue. this is hot and far from being a dessert. after the first impression of sweetness, you will feel the spicy taste coming through. we all love that slight burning on the lips, making you really feel the feel. the first cut on the b-side digs even deeper into sweetness. somehow everything seems to be so lovely, each time this one is played out. its clear that even the ruff guys cant resist the taste of honey. real sweet and spicy, thats how its got to be. things are straightened out on the final cut, which finishes off the meal with a raw funk jam. the extended guitar groove gets back to the basics. sometimes few essential things, combined in the right way, can be all you need. a typical mistake when preparing a meal is to add too many different spices.

summer has come early. the fog is literally lifting and willing the summer to come early with this excellent ep for metroline. lead track diggler’s job is a breezy house number with pimping keys and a beautiful bass bounce. there’s plenty of movement in the percussion and a light touch that just begs for summer to come. shout romance is a shade tougher with its up-front kicks and acid-tinged bassline. it has slow burn intensity that is nicely counterbalanced by smooth reverb-soaked vintage synths.the jackspot remix of shout romance really brings out the funk in those synths, underpinning that with down-the line percussion and skittering hats that give the track a real drive. rounding things up nicely is in the right mood. the track’s bassline is sticky, sweet treacle over which congas and vocal cuts are expertly sprinkled to create a tasty treat. it never gets sickly though… horns are deployed sparingly, and the track has the same cool as a cucumber minimalism that makes this ep pure pleasure on the eardrums

babylon by car is entirely in this ambiguity, between nostalgia and modernity, between pop and post-punk, electronic music and rock, past and future – its where kraftwerks >men-machines< celebrated an endless future with obedient machines. botox summons the ghosts of the century, from cybotron to wire, from fad gadget to john carpenter, to give birth to greatly personal music and, in all honesty, a rather unique sound in french electronic music. botox doesnt swagger to keep their motors running. both melodic and fierce, >babylon by car< comes as it is. and its probably the best way to take it in

croatian nu-disco/funk/boogie overlord ilija rudman has swung by around here. once more he is spinning his audio gems on the legendary bearfunk label. this time is the ever so funky new release soul embrace . ilija gets his niles rogers hat on and peppers this sparkler with chingy-funk guitar. add in some big rolling, dx-style, chugger bass and lashes of darting percussion and there you have it...floor-filler dynamite. the original mix and the spectacularly 80 s styled extended mix make an appearance. our man also goes straight for the beat jugular with his drum, beat and percussion heavy bonus beats mix. to round things off, label head bear, stevie kotey, takes on the remix duties. he brings some real bass along to the party and new layers of slick keys. turning down the floor quotient just a notch, this one is pure slow-burn disco done well, very well.
