Chanan Hanspal: The Garden Sessions (Here and Now Recordings.)

The album packs 10 tracks including the gorgeously re-mastered "Footprints in The Sand." This isn’t a four to the floor album though, you won’t find one house track one here but that’s the point!

Norman Jay MBE presents Good Times 30th Anniversay Edition (Strut)

National treasure Norman brings us all another Good Times No. 30 in fact! Plenty of disco and soul from his crate digging vaults which is right up my street and hopefully yours too. Mark Capanni's version of 'I Believe in Miracles' sets.

SINTILLATE @ CC Club (every Friday, 10pm-3.30am) London

It’s quite an achievement for a night to last five years in the volatile and competitive world of Central London clubbing. It’s even more impressive when it doesn’t sell out musically in order to achieve such a status.
