“Sam Baker’s Album” operates within recognisable Brainfeeder territory: instrumental tracks with compressed sound; unquantized, misshapen beats, with an analogue haze hanging over it all like smog (although Baker actually works digitally, favouring the Roland SP-303). But within these familiar parameters Baker successfully applies his creativity to making funk-derived sample-based hip hop sound fresh.

Danny Wolfer’s is back again on Greece’s Echovolt label. Once again we see his trademark style of soulful, narrative electronic music spread across these four barrio tinged tracks, the standout being the massive Poverties Paradise which is a deeply emotional vocal excursion reminiscent of some of the most classic Chicago cuts with the signature Legowelt stamp planted firmly on it.

Microthol return to TRUST with a new EP ‘Supergravity’. Far fiction electro once again serves as a way point for tracks like ‘Supergravity Solutions’ and ‘Atlas Detection’, while the outlandish polyrhythmics of ‘Andolit Swaras’ prove microthol’s ability to create strangely compelling abstract electronica. The EP’s final track, ‘The Bliss’, provides another surprising turn. Working with Sensational, legendary MC for the NYC Jungle Brothers, and Dj Brace, Microthol deliver a weighty workout of industrial acid hip-hop.

Unmissable modern House groove from Ostgut Ton’s co-founder Nick Höppner. ‘A Peck And A Pawn’ is pure groove science, augmenting the crisp and spacious aesthetic of Berlin-style House with a subtly accentuated Funky swing to exceptional effect. Flipside, ‘She Parked Herself’ is Detroit-influenced, with classic-sounding and sweeping melody guided by shook square bass and drums.. ‘Swivel Flick’ is slower, more intimate and involved with sensuous atmosphere and supple, kinky flow.
The first record of the Enlightened Wax series is a fine blend of incandescent house and techno tracks, flaring through the darkness of the night. All the tracks are written, mixed, and produced by Restoration and Appointment Records co- founder Marieu, without the use of any software.
