Review: In the midst of a slew of high-end reissues of New Order's classic material (including represses of the singles, no less), here comes a mouth-watering deluxe edition of their 1985 album Low-life. It's always a bold statement to call a release 'definitive' but it's hard to imagine topping this lavish box set with a 180 gram pressing plus a double CD, double DVD and accompanying book. There are full live performances from 1985 in Japan and Belgium, and every possible remix, outtake and demo version you could possibly dream of. And that's not even saying anything about the original album itself - a true totem of 80s synth pop in all its glory.

Review: Second time around for Madonna's Finally Enough Love box set, which celebrates the iconic artist's unique achievement of notching up no less than 50 number ones on the Billboard Dance chart - the first artist in history to do so. In effect, it's a celebration of her Madgesty's links with dance music culture, showcasing 40 years of popular reworks of her biggest hits, presented in a 'rainbow edition' box set where each of the six slabs of wax is pressed onto different coloured vinyl. So, alongside classic early hits and reworks from 1987 remix album You Can Dance, we get revisions by everyone from Junior Jasquez, Jellybean, Shep Pettinone and Pet Shop Boys, to William Orbit, Aviici, Felx De Housecat, Jacques Lu Cont and Tracey Young. Madonna-ologists assemble!

Review: New age fans and Celtic music aficionados unite, for high priestess Enya is presenting an authoritative, long awaited vinyl edition of her 1997 greatest hits box set A Box Of Dreams. Enya's enduring popularity since her debut in the mid 80s remains a beacon of hope for humanity - a shout out for optimism and serenity in a world where such qualities feel indulgent if they're to be found at all. Gathering together the best of her work from her 1986 debut up to 1997's Paint The Sky With Stars best of, the music has been arranged around three thematic collections, Oceans, Clouds and Stars, moving from the upbeat via piano instrumentals on to choral and meditative ballads. Sleeve notes and some additional poetry from Roma Ryan make this a special edition which fans will rejoice at.
