Review: Sound Exhibitions are back with another of their bumper box set collections which pull together the works of several key label artists. There are five 7"s in all and a wide range of styles from the pumping disco funk of Luciano FM's opener 'Fly Guy' to the more deep house leaning grooves of Mosaik's 'Pazarski Den' (Chicago Beatdown). Jazzed up disco and infectious hand claps get the party going on Monsieur Van Pratt's 'This Jazz (For Jorman)' and there is also some seductive slow motion beatdown from friends and long time musical collaborators Luciano FM & Stradivarius on their 'Nu Cafe.'

Review: Apparel Wax have all eyes on summer with this hot new 7" which starts a new sub-series from the long running crew. It has the in house production team at the buttons for two brilliantly deep and jazzy hope outings. The first is a nice warm soulful house roller with clipped and funky beats, a fine female vocal and endless depth. Then, on the flip, 'Track 2' is damn sexy with its lavish sax lines drifting up top over percussive grooves that are laid back and loved up. Rather fascinatingly, this one comes with "non GM seeds".

Review: Apparel Wax quickly follow up their summery sounding first 7" with a second sizzling offering that is perfect for warm nights of outdoor dancing. The label collective is behind the music which kicks off with 'Track 1', a slinky mid-tempo house cut with jazzy sax lines lighting it up and dusty drums moving your feet. On the flip things are just as airy and carefree, with 'Track 2' featuring a cute vocal and lots of fluid synth expressionism. Like the first drop, this second one comes with "non-GMO seeds."

Review: Adesha and Vincent Kwok come together once more for a new transmission that takes its stylistic cues from "the glittering dance floors of the disco era to Minneapolis-inspired funk." These are lush tunes with gorgeous backing vocals, fine sax sounds and irresistible drums. First is 'Hot Mess' which is a classic disco workout with pumping drums and nice loos percussion under the soaring vocals and cosmic synth rays. 'Girl Fan' has a sizzling sax solo and describes the stages of fandom over punchy beats. This is the third collab from this pair on The Sleepers Record label.

Review: Malaga-based producer Pablo Dread comes to Beat Machine Records for the eleventh edition of the special series Swinging Flavors, this time for the titular 'Hardcore Blips'. It's a limited edition 7" vinyl featuring swanging bassline kicks, shaking us to our core. This is a full-throttle journey hurtling towards uncontrollable euphoria with electrifying vibrations that magnetically pull us into a one-way ticket to ecstasy. The track's old-school rave sound, a hallmark of Dread's productions, immerses us ambiances typical of the 90s, with recurring piano chords that give way to a heavy and strict drum & bass drop. The single features a special remix by Fanu (Janne Hatula), known for his dynamic and evolving rhythms. Hailing from Helsinki, Finland, Fanu takes a departure from his usual thick chord-driven pieces, opting for a more minimal yet delightfully busy and slightly wonky approach. Drawing inspiration from Luke Vibert, this remix adds a playful and unique twist to the track.

Review: Dutch hardcore label Sealand have tapped up legendary breakbeat antagonist FFF for a special 7' release which stays true to the rowdy, cut-up style both label and artist are known for. On the A-side, Tommy de Roos flies solo for 'Titan (Back On The Case)', a full-tilt raggacore explosion to set the dance alight in all the right ways. On the flip, we get a true insight into the hardcore culture from this part of the world as sealand's finest rapper KD and local scratch legend DJ Vindictiv jump on for a 'Dead City Version' of the track, marking the first time the old friends of FFF's have appeared on the same record as him.
