wruhme, robag & metaboman       zwei maenner split      12          this is a split release between the two acts that have graced the label so far - we start things off with 'Easy Woman' - a killer downtempo trip of organically flavoured music like theo parrish meeting jonny greenwood with a deep dose of bass science, while 'August Macke' has a thudding midtempo 4/4 beat rolling alongside rustic congas, layered warm chord haze, mo' heavy bass and sweet whispered vocalising.  future balearic or just damned good new music with soul, that will do for me.

frivolous       crankkongestion 12          new act to andy vaz's excellent background imprint. daniel gardner from canada provides yet further evidence of the burgeoning scene developing in the northern reaches, influenced rather by european progressions than detroit, chicago or new york. here, more kooky, funkier francophone sounds blend with the well documented axis running from matthew herbert through to marc leclair -the result, four tracks of top bollocks down the disco.
villalobos, ricardo     808 queen of bass       12        a 4/4 heads off with melodic and deep echoing stabs, reminiscent of basic channel, subtlety is the key across the tune,  all have been timed to perfection and the atmosphere permeates the track, soaking up every drop of funk. there are two mixes on the flip, both stripped to the bare essentials and heavy on the sub bass movements, but the length and depth of the a-side takes the winners cup.

nitty gritty / osbourne, johnny / coco tea      false alarm / in the area / trouble again / death in the stadium        10         The music was getting digital following the success of Tubby's Tempa and the addictive Sleng Teng, and Jammy's was not about to be left out, with the rhythms being rehashed and honed down to drum machine, bass and guitar/organ, the singers ruled covering lots of sound war lyrics, social observation, and some culture and reality - but the sound of the singers voices was what carried the swing, as Nitty Gritty, Coco Tea, Frankie Paul, Tenor Saw, Barrington Levy and others niced up the dances.

Dreamy.
