The one and only edit king really struck gold with his iconic rework of Marvin Gaye's 'I Want You,' which now celebrates 20 years with its first-ever 7" reissue on Most Excellent Unlimited. Stripping back the original to spotlight Gaye's sensual vocals and minimal conga-driven rhythm, this near-drumless edit is pure magic. On the flip, Mr K delivers a euphoric edit of Billy Paul's Philly disco gem 'Only The Strong Survive' and stretches its soaring vocals and propulsive groove into an extended, floor-lifting finale. Both sides are essential: one intimate and sultry, the other triumphant and explosive, making this another essential 45 rpm from Mr. K.

UK producer Trevor Huddleston aka 36 and the Indiana-based Past Inside The Present label's head Zake return to their Stasis Sounds For Long Distance Space Travel project, a universe that suspends the listener in time across glacial soundscapes and a general sense of cosmic awe. Soft, slow-moving drones and textural washes drift like solar winds through the vacuum, suggesting the boundless calm of deep space. The production is rich, gentle with tonal shifts and barely-there harmonics that evoke both distance and intimacy, wonder and melancholy. It feels like music beamed in from the edges of the known universe. If you fancy a contemplative journey from the edge of Earth's thermosphere into the unknowable beyond, tune into Stasis Sounds on your best headphones.

Panarama's follow-up to Cartagena! delivers another essential slice of Colombian musical history with Michi Sarmiento y sus Bravos: Salsa y Descarga 1967-1977. A new 16-track compilation, it captures the fierce, joyful energy of Michi's golden era on Discos Fuentes, a label synonymous with Colombia's explosive tropical sound. Born in 1938, Michi was a saxophone prodigy who led his Combo Bravo with swagger, blending cumbia, guaguanco, boogaloo, and salsa into relentless, percussion-heavy grooves. Backed by two blazing trumpets and a young Joe Arroyo on vocals, Michi's sound is rich with tumbling congas, sharp montunos, and wild sax riffs. Two choice cuts from the comp, 'Mirame San Miguel' and 'Cumbia Raja', come pinched from the wider bag, displaying characteristic stridency, a charisma that peeks through even on high-lopped, vintage recordings such as these.

Boston duo Soul Clap make a routine yearly stopover in Detroit with House Of Efunk, a DJs' slamdown paying collective tribute to the dance musical legacy of Motor City. Detroit's influence on the House of Efunk is undeniable, and this 25th release in the conjoining V/A series of EPs hears Soul Clap join Axel Boman, Juliet Mendoza, Ataxia, and Mathew Jonson for a serious-unserious serum of dance delirium. Best among them 0s the lo-fi astral projections of Boman's 'Ev'ry Body Wants To Be A Star' (hint: you already are) and Ataxia's future-lectro acid finesse-tration, 'Soul Clap'.

Spanish techno powerhouse Andres Campo hits hard with four uncompromising club weapons for DCLTD. 'Conte Bleu' wastes no timeiit's heads-down tunnel techno with acidic flashes, reverb-drenched vocals and glimmering melodies swirling inside the chaos. 'Nuit Blanche' flips the script with a more syncopated, breaksy structure, its flickering metallic textures and jazzy FX giving way to an enormous vocal-led breakdown that manages to be both weird and raucously effective. On the B-side, 'Ligne Jaune' is all pressure and paranoia: distorted spoken samples swim through the mix as punishing percussion surges forward. 'Pois Gris' closes the set in sci-fi mode, splicing synthetic sirens, looping vocal chants and relentless stomping drums into something as dystopian as it is danceable. Designed for big systems and dim lights, this is techno with teeth.

Fennesz's first album in over five years is a moquettish mosaic of heart-tugging synth string movements and tinctured textures, described by its releasers P-Vine as bearing "terrifyingly detailed sound image". If inhalatory gasps in the face of the Byronic sublime were merged with the atmospheric-communicative chatter of radio and telecoms, this would be the sonic result. Described as Christian Fennesz' most introspective album to date, the record follows a newfound process for the artist, which came after the construction of a new studio and the sticking to a strict regimen. The likes of 'Personare' and 'Goniorizon' reflect this commitment, with new molten plastic ventures in sound yielded as a result; clock the tender, hand-pulled, doughy sound design on the latter track in particular.

Five years have now passed since Richard Sen launched the Darkness Is Your Candle label with a typically atmospheric, clandestine and dancefloor-ready EP ('No Sameness'). Astonishingly, this 12" - a set of Sen reworks of cuts by American singer-songwriter John Grant - is only the second release. On side A, we get two takes on 'Disappointed' (vocal and instrumental) - both of which add Grant's distinctive, low register vocals to a new wave-influenced backing track rich in ghostly synth sounds, pulsating electronic bass, crystalline synth strings and spooky effects. Over on the flip, Sen gets his mitts on 'Voodoo Doll', first delivering a mid-tempo vocal version full of ear-catching, delay-laden synth sounds, chugging beats and bold bass, before concentrating on the groove and wayward synth sounds on the accompanying 'Sunshine Dub'.

Originally released in 1996, this track has long been a staple in the deep house canon and this 2025 reissue delivers a collection of the most iconic remixes alongside with a key fresh version. The track's timeless appeal is fully realised through a combination of classic and modern renditions. Side-A has one of the most important versions with the sublime Salt City Orchestra's Out There Mix, a deep house masterpiece with ethereal vocals, hypnotic basslines and an epic feel that makes it timeless as the day it was released. The Trevino Remix flips the track, introducing a more techy, peak-time energy with a rolling bassline that transforms the deep groove into an undeniable floor-filler. Side-B showcases two more versions, beginning with the Frits Wentink Mix, which strips down the track to its soulful essence, focusing on intricate percussion and atmospheric elements. The final track and newest version, the MIDGE mix, brings a new era to Mushrooms, blending modern house vibes with a touch of nostalgia while maintaining the original's soul while infusing a fresh tempo and atmosphere. Mushrooms remains as compelling as ever, proving its staying power in the house music world - and this reissue just proves once again, how in demand this track still is today.
