The Mole ‘Caregiver’

Canadian underground hero The Mole pops up to deliver his first album in four years, and it’s exactly the smoky, funky, bluesy offbeat tech house we hoped for.

CHOICE CUT – The Orb feat. Lee Scratch Perry ‘The Observer In The Star House’

Dub legend Lee Scratch Perry and what remains of The Orb put their heads together and manage to come up with the downbeat album we’ve been looking for.

Radioactiveman ‘Waits and Measures’

Keith Tenniswood delivers his fourth album under the Radioactiveman moniker, and we rather like the electro breakbeats contained therein.

Guest Chart – Soul Clap

We offer up the floor to the prolific US production and DJ duo, who deliver a list of ten of their remixes and original work that are worth a hefty weight in gold. Expect broken house music, rolling garage, and experimental electronica for the dancefloor, amongst other sounds.

Keep an eye out for… Vondelpark

With a forthcoming release on R&S, home to the likes of Joey Beltram, you might not expect Vondelpark to sound like Jamie XX meeting Mount Kimbie and James Blake for a chat about anti-club tunes and lo-fi glitch stylings. But they do, kind of.

Various Artists ‘Great Minds’

Manchester’s enigmatic Mind On Fire has been responsible for promoting a diverse range of nights, while compiling original productions from like-minded locals onto numerous CD-Rs. So it makes sense the micro-imprint’s vinyl debut showcases such diverse work.

Back in the bath with Crazy Penis

Expectations are high for the release of Paper Recordings’ remix album of A Nice Hot Bath with Crazy Penis.

From Belgrade (with love)

One minute your exposed to ear-bleeding breakbeats and mind numbing hooks, the next your on some distorted Caribbean beach listening to some guy talking about SMS text messaging.
