all three parts of the art21 neurotwin compilation as 4x12 inch box (2x yellow & grey marbled / 1x clear / 12x black vinyl).

16 songs from the eurovision song contest, presed on 180 gram heavyweight vinyl.

124 recordings know how to put together a deep house compilation, and they re sounding fierce on this latest, appropriately titled levels up. the jams come heavy and funky from a range of on-point operators, leading in with tom jay s quintessential new jersey bump n grind on hanging on. david moran is a little more shadowy but no less groovesome, while nicola brusegan takes things on a sweet and smooth tip. across the whole double pack there are classically informed jams to satisfy the most weary deep house heads, but keep an ear out for the old-school flavoured heft of freak ds power of bass, which should get some seriously jacking airtime in the right kind of dance.

so the shag edits hits volume 6 and again welcomes in new talents to the roots for bloom roster. ethyene delivers a sample laden vocal sprung straight up house classic. lk slows the pace but replaces with soul and crystal clear percussion. georgi barrel opens up the b side on one to please any daytime party with great use of his well equipped studio and a sample to die for. david moran seals off the ep in true shag edits style, no barriers, great sampling and all with a great party in mind. followers of the shag edits will not be disappointed.
