Review: Ultra-sidechained French house stylee from Toolroom, here presenting the latest instalment in what has so far been a choice V/A collection of the best future house and deep house bits known to the label. This is a front-facing affair, with megastars such as Armand Van Helden, Mark Knight and Julio Navas fronting the A-side with the string-centric euphorizer 'The Music Began To Play' and the popcorny, momentarily arhythmic stabber 'Raw'.

Review: Another anonymous minimal tech house label in the vein of greats such as Stablo, EEE or Digwah. Here is this one on DEE, its second one-sided release, featuring rolling UK tech house vibes aplenty on 'Te Amo'. Be hypnotised by this mysterious cut's bass-driven groove; infectious pop overtones underpinned by tight rhythm programming.

Review: If you're in the mood for some cosmic grooves, wayward disco and pagan psychedelia, Multi-Culti's Cult Edits series is always worth checking. The imprint's latest offering is packed to the rafters with mind-altering goodness. Inigo Voltier sets the tone with "Ti Amo", a Fairlight-powered bounce through post-Italo oddball electro territory with added mix-80s power-pop guitars, before Angelina Amor reworks a sludgy slab of European industrial/new wave fusion. Youkounkoun's throbbing "Cosmic Yoyo" sounds like post-apocalyptic Italo-disco after a fist full of downers, while Asa Moto's "When The Funk Is On" is a funky but undeniably weird electro-industrial cut rich in delay-laden vocal snippets and metallic percussion hits.

Review: Powerhouse US hip hop label Cold Busted has been serving up the beats to keep us on our feet for what seems like ever. Taking the reins here is MTBRD who hails from the UK and is a prolific studio hand. His take on the high-flying Jet Set series from Cold Busted is a glorious one with four soulful and well-constructed tunes that will appeal to his ever goring fan base. This one comes on the heels of his well-received Damn Fine LP last year and offers heavy boom-bap on the opener, shimmering electric piano on 'So Long' and cinematic design on 'Ti Amo' before infectious vocals define closer 'Lost In Translation.'
