Shoot The Bar (7:46)
Primary Colours (6:51)
Oliva Funk (6:31)
Review: Florence based label Bosconi is back with 100 Hz aka UK legends Lee Renacre and James Chapman who have been around since the late eighties. This is their second release on the Italian imprint; their Mila EP was their first for the label back in 2009. On the A side we have a re-issue of their 1989 track "Shoot The Bar" a sturdy and cyclical house groove on the tougher side of things with a nice double bass holding the track above a tight rhythm and dreamy Rhodes piano. "Primary Colours" sounds more like minimal, but given more of an edge by all the dusty and lively analogue machines that power it along. Its bumpy bass and restrained synth stabs supporting some simplistic rhythms and works quite well. Finally "Oliva Funk" is more of a classic NYC house cut, those rapid fire cowbell strikes will help it bear even more resemblance to classic Kerri Chandler style vibes.

Some Kind Of Arrangement (7:49)
First Refusal (7:46)
Review: London's Archie Hamilton breaks away temporarily from his usual home of Fuse London to throw down some fine hi-tech minimalist grooves for prolific Frankfurt imprint Pleasure Zone. When considering that they've previously offered up the likes of Vid and Ali Nasser, you can appreciate the Romanian influence on this 12" too; Hamilton's sound is really developing well. On the A side "Some Kind Of Arrangement" has the funky and cyclical hypnotism that could have him likened to the likes of Barac while on the flip "First Refusal" is more deep down and drugged up; perfect for the morning set with its paranoid and low slung groove.

Review: MOi? Who? Give it a listen and we'll give you one guess. His sound is unmistakeable isn't it. The new Ukrainian hero of rolling and funky minimal is back under yet another alias (and imprint) and he's already up to number four. "Track 1" on the A side is built for peak time headrushes on the dancefloors of Concrete and Hoppetosse. Expect this one to de destroying crowds of the underground this Summer! The B side offering is a bit more stripped; the fierce bass supported by some swirling and hypnotic pads on this surefire DJ tool that'll make even Ion Ludwig step up his game!

To The Unknown (10:10)
To The Unknown (Malin Genie remix) (6:43)
Review: The star of Ukrainian iO (Mulen) continues to rise in steadfast fashion with his funky minimal grooves fast becoming the choice for many tastemakers. So much so, that massive Parisian house label Apollonia have tapped him for a release; not bad at all! "To The Unknown" is ten minutes of funked up, minimal house bliss for freaks that you could imagine a crowd full of hedonists at Sunwaves festival going absolutely mental to. The remix by Amsterdam's Malin Genie (Vigenere/Oscillat) is pretty sweet too, giving it a smooth deep house vibe that doesn't get as abstract as the original.

Uncle Sens (7:22)
Copacul Vietii (7:22)
Speologie (7:12)
Zibi (7:45)
Review: Raresh's Metereze imprint is back with some more emerging homegrown talent, this time in the form of up and comer Limpid. He is also part of duo Alsi, who have released on Body Parts, Colourful and Project London. On the A side "Uncle Sens" is emotive and sexy deep house with those hypnotising keys and that killer bassline doing most of the work over a.. well, pretty minimal groove! "Shine" follows in suit with its swirling pads and funky yet restrained style: which sums up why these Romanians are so good at their craft. On the flip "Speologie" gets a taste for some reduced acid sensibilities like fellow label mate Melodie: this one's sick! Finally "Zibi" gets back to the emotive groove but has a bit more guts about it, compared to the first side. Featuring sombre atmosphere, subdued melodics and a very tight rhythm powering away beneath. This guy's one to watch!

Cinematicorc (8:13)
Love Keep Mapping The Head (11:23)
Review: While he's barely paused for breath in the last decade, it's still been eight years since Fumiya Tanaka delivered his last album, Unknown 3. The epitome of long overdue, You Find The Key is his fourth album. Interestingly, it sees the 44 year-old, Japanese producer tweaking his now familiar bass-heavy minimal techno blueprint. Thrillingly, the bass lines are bolder and jauntier, and the beats jazzier, resulting in an altogether funkier take on the minimal techno style. Of course, there are still moments that recall his previous work - see the deep and dubby "Swallowed Memory" - but it's those that take a sideways step towards funk-fuelled pastures ("Munich Uncertain", "The Only Your Researching") that stand out.

Phalanx (5:11)
Warg (7:04)
Review: The master of dark journey tracks known as Recondite returns, this time for Scuba's esteemed Hotflush imprint. The sombre and doomy vibes of the title track are a bit more restrained than Lorenz Brunner's usual tracks but just as foreboding with those now trademark 'wonky' melodies which truly work a treat. "Warg" on the flip has a bit more momentum and definitely more elements incorporated into its sound. It's funky, in a brooding way of course; with another epic melody for some seriously dramatic dancefloor moments that he's known for.

Wishing Well (10:57)
Loop 2 (0:17)
Review: Fresh off unleashing the superb You Find The Key LP by Fumiya Tanaka, Zip, Markus Nikolai and Chris Rehberger's cult Perlon label coax some fresh material out of Margaret Dygas. Perlon is of course a label Dygas has been aligned with throughout much of her celebrated career, though she's only put out a handful of 12"s and an LP on the label. The two-track Even 11 is a welcome sight then and the title track finds Dygas tunnelling deep into a rich groove of expert percussive detail and tripped out effects atop a thick and luscious bass line. Complementing this, "Wishing Well" is one of those trademark Perlon B-side trippers, suggestively hinting at acquiring a stable groove whilst all manner of intricate, leftfield sounds help gently push the track forwards.

A Juiced Lie (7:19)
Track 4 (4:02)
Review: Mehdi Djebali's back everyone: look out! Always bringing the goods on his eponymous vinyl only imprint, number 10 for the label sees the Frenchman throw down some more rolling, downright funky and undeniably sensual grooves to make discerning dancefloors sweat. Starting out with the smooth liquid groove of "The Nine Stars" which you could imagine warming up a heaving dancefloor just after midnight at Concrete. On the flip there's the ultra deep and super sexy "A Juiced Lie" that calls to mind the classic Parisan deep house sound of the early noughties by local heroes Jerome Pacman or D'julz.

Review: You can never have too much Point G right? Self-professed 'long-time galaxy traveller' and all round French production legend Gregory Darsa is never shy when it comes to putting out music, be it fresh cuts, alternate takes on classic or unreleased gems from his personal archive. This Classics & Unreleased Jams double pack is the latest in a long line of Point G releases in multiple platter format and will have the selectors out there salivating. Issued on Cabanne & Eric V's Minibar label, the seven cuts featured canvas punchy house workouts to deeper tracks and more minimally-minded groovers. Do check Cabanne's own edit of "Mister Dallas" in particular!

SAM - "Brooklyn Nights"
Zendid - "WS3"
Mikisderek - "Sump1"
Review: DisDat is the new brainchild of New York's infamous underground party, ReSolute. For their first release, they showcase three different sonic interpretations of their iconic warehouse mornings that stretch out far into the afternoon.

Leading the release is S.A.M. (of Oscillat and Delpahine notoriety) with the aptly named "Brooklyn Nights" - a driving track made for the dancefloor, with its acid-tinged bassline complimented by S.A.M.'s trademark emotionality.

French duo Zendid provide the pulsating "Ws3", whose scattered kick drum underlines euphoric and fluttering elements.

Matthew Burton & Bangladesign, together as Mikisderek, bring the release to a close with the subtle and introspective "Sump1", as equally suited for the beginning of a night as the early morning after

Hazard (12:11)
So Doo (8:46)
No More Space (7:11)
Review: Bucharest minimal hero Arapu presents the second release on his own new Liniar imprint and its business as usual really: trippy and hypnotic deepness for weirdo afterhours shenanigans. He's got some fierce competition that's for sure, but we think Arapu's one of the best of the bunch at the moment; as demonstrated on the title track with its infectious swing and darkly funked-up groove hypnotising you into submission. On the flip "So Doo" is probably the most restrained offering on here, letting its sombre sound design do most of the work backed by a gutsy stomp. Finally "No More Space" hammers the message home on this sinister and tunnelling groove which chugs away like a steamtrain through the reductionist darklands.

Kabusawki (9:11)
Review: Thilo Dietrich hails from Kaub in Germany's West-Rhine region and appears for the third instalment on Pager entitled The Saga Of Bennos T.S. For the Offenbach/Frankfurt based record label run by Markus Sommer & Phil Evans. On the first side "Caria Marey" is bleepy tech house that rolls deep while "The Great Sventon (Bob Harley Road mix)" is glitchy minimal funk that's perfect for paranoid afterhours gatherings and reminiscent of early Minibar releases. Finally on the flip we've got "Kabusawki" which is definitely the most advanced and well executed production. The trippy and bumpin' groove on this is absolutely wicked and is a must for fans of quirky grooves like that of Perlon or Boogizm.

Craig Bratley - "Raw Trax #1" (5:17)
Craig Bratley - "Night Moves" (5:28)
Review: Craig Bratley's Magic Feet imprint is back y'all and in fine form as always. The Kukushka EP features Roe Deers on the A side, who contributes the infectious deep house stomp of the title track which has just enough dust and rust thrown into the mix to make this a standout track. Also on offer is the the retro 80's leaning remix by man of the moment Markus Gibb which would mix in well to a Lauer or Tuff City Kids track. On the flip Bratley serves up the rusty and gritty acid jack of "Raw Trax #1" which is so convincing you'd think it was a lost tape from 1986 while on "Night Moves" it goes for more of the nu-disco vibe with some rich arpeggiations and emotive pads that will cater to the best boogie playgrounds out there.

Review: Sensoramic is a new label on a mission of sensory expansion. For the debut release the UK based imprint drafts new producer Karousel to deliver two cuts of machine driven house. S.A.M., the Danish Oscillat/Delaphine favourite appears on the remix fresh from delivering a slew of killer originals and remixes as well as his most recent Mandar collaboration with Lazare Hoche and Malin Genie. On this Reshape, he is at his most sublime best delivering an emotive retake on the original that stretches heady organs and melodies alongside a beat that refuses to let up.

September By Touch (12:31)
490 (12:28)
Review: If the weekly arrivals at Juno are any indicator, it's a rich and plentiful time for fans of the Romanian sound with so many interesting artists helping to push the minimal genre forwards. Barac Nicolae belongs at the forefront of this movement and he's been in fine fettle so far in 2016, with a recent contribution to the Rawax Aira series a particular favourite here. It's Cluj-based Midi Records (affiliated with the popular venue of the same name) that score the latest batch from Barac in the shape of the Seen and Unseen EP. Whilst they may adopt a slightly darker tone than recent Barac material, both "490" and "September by Touch" are slow cooked under the Romanian's signature jagged groove.

Fizmo Theme (5:22)
Review: No one does minimal house quite likes Koos Ludwig. The man from Devanter is back with more of his trademark sound: rolling subterranean grooves that will no doubt rock the underground this Summer and beyond. Always the prankster, what would an Ion Ludwig release be without absurd track titles and get a load of this one "Now On The Ocean Sky Only Knows Back In The Mountain Is Where It Goes"; which is as rolling, bass heavy and dark as you'd expect. By comparison, the title track is more uplifting with its dreamy synth leads and infectious syncopation in its rhythm department getting the job done nicely. Finally on the flip "Fizmo Theme" hammers the message home in dark and dubby fashion, getting that spooky trance inducing vibe happening just as well as any Melchior Productions track.

Review: British minimal upstarts Alex & Digby are back for French artists Guillaume Taillieu and Lamache's Discobar imprint. If this is anything like their last release "Crowhurst" then we'd best be excited. Rest assured they do indeed bring the goods once again on "Angolan Rumble", where they deliver some reduced grooves that glitch and bump about the place like classic Perlon or Minibar. "Suckerfish" follows in suit but this one is a sweet serving of minimal funk that reminds us more of DBX. Finally on the flip we've got "Snitch" which is probably the most advanced offering on here, with some great textural sound design and mood settings which tumbles way in restrained fashion delightfully over its ten minute duration.

Review: Enzo Siragusa's Fuse London imprint is back with more top notch minimal grooves for the afterhours shift. Londoner Anthony DiFrancesco teams up with newcomer Samuel Bellis team up on the DB Productions project who serve us with some deep and rolling high fidelity grooves like "One Way To Pluto" which is paranoid and trance inducing; just perfect for the morning set for when things get weird. "Adderall" gives you a good kick just like its namesake; this one is more energetic and on the deep house tip but still loopy and hypnotic enough for perfect dancefloor dynamics. Finally "87-88" gets a remix by French deep house maestro Alexkid with label boss Siragusa himself and it's a good one: stripped, bass driven and functional.
