The Air Texture series of ambient compilations is amongst the best around. This fifth edition features a disc's worth of selections from San Francisco-based Brit Spacetime Continuum (AKA long-serving producer Jonah Sharp) and Amsterdam-based eccentrics Juju & Jordash. Sharp's selection is reflective of his love of deep and spacey fare, some of it influenced by the Motor City (check the cuts by Fred P and Patrice Scott), but also includes vintage material from I:Cube, Sunshine Jones and old pal Move D. Juju & Jordash serve up a slightly more wide-ranging and occasionally grandiose selection, drawing together sublime contributions from the likes of Gigi Masin, Max D, Planet Love and Magic Mountain High, their acclaimed collaboration with Move D.
