I’ve always loved the charged Hi-Energy of this Disco (dare I say, Classic) release from 1979. Big, bold syncopation drives the sizzling intensity of this number all the way as Jacobs delightful vocals ignite the airwaves. A chorus full of melody hits you as every drop of emotion of squeezed till the pips squeak. A

Undoubtedly the best way to describe the third release from the label is its title. Fever In The Air, comes complete with one mix saying all that it needs to as Cari’s emotionally rich, yet understated vocals adorn the hypnotic implications generated by a simple bassline and deeply effective pads care of DifferentMe.

Splendid release which causes instant impact as soon as the Kick and bass hits. Davina Moss’s smoking production lends both heavyweight flair to the occasion plus a sense of more playful melody in the shape of ShatZ’s lyrical rolls.

Techno’s defining stalwart explodes all over the stereo in a fit of Punky, fizzy fuelled rage that in the appropriate parlance: I Fucking Love. Low-slung and meaning business dirty rhythms are punched out across the spaces in-between as Anika’s attitude spiked vocal tickles the imagination with all sorts of devilish and political possibilities. The album

Argentina’s Mariano Mellino’s spine-tingling productions excite moods and ambiences tastefully on both numbers here. The title tracks lends unfussy yet impactful ripples of sound that provide introspective, dark notation while at the same time ultimately pounding drums as sprinkles of grainy keys adds sparkle to the arrangement. Ultramental, follows feeling brighter with punchier beats informing

Flying at you in a blaze of Disco glory is this new one from Crispin J Glover who pulls no punches but packs plenty of fevered surprise when it comes to exhilaration.
