Die & Interface Feat. William Cartwright: Bright Lights
The vocals and smooth production will no doubt divide people. Bright Lights is a ‘love it or loathe it track’, but as it clocks in at under three, minutes it won’t exactly get on anyone’s nerves for long...
Flore: Raw (Botchit & Scarper)
When compared to the other dance albums out at the moment Raw is way above them all. Probably because it isn’t merely just a dance album, its far more than that, there are so many little elements to maintain the listeners interest...
Dogtown Clash: Hole In My Head (Westway)
With a throbbing bass line and instantly familiar hook Hole In My Head will be rattling round your head for hours after you first hear it. MC SirReal takes the mic for a couple of verses but the mix is so full there’s little room for vocals...
Karton: All You Need
Quite often in films, the plot will involve a scene in a club, where a supposedly famous and cool band are playing. More often than not, this fake band, with its fake crowd, looking realistic, but are playing what the film producers think is cool music...
Cakeboy: Swamp Thing (Mutate Records)

Fabriclive 52: Zero T (UK Fabric)
Irish producer Zero T (formerly Zero Tolerance) comes good with this considerate mix of deep, bass-y drum & bass and dubstep. Complex breaks and heavy speaker rumbles rule the roost but T ensures proceedings remain colourful...
Richard Earnshaw: In Time (UK Groovefinder Records)
Ironic choice of title for Earnshaw’s debut album, being that it has taken a staggering seven years to bear fruit. Thank goodness then In Time is a fat, juicy peach of a record. Earnshaw demonstrates real confidence...
Milky Disco 3 (to.the.stars): Various Artists (UK Lo Recordings)
London-based Lo Recordings have been at the forefront of the nu-disco revolution for some time now, thanks in large part to its cult Milky Disco compilation series. Milky Disco 3 is another triumph, serving up fresh and original space...
Renn: Nights In Africa (UK Reel People Music)
A new acquisition to Oli Lazarus’ more than reputable Reel People camp, Renn drums out some rhythmically infectious afro-house. It’s gloriously crafted stuff, layered with warm melodies, lowdown b-lines and some slick...
