New release on Nation, the “Rhythm Relics” EP is an approach towards the beginnings of an evolving acid-driven Dance scene in the UK two decades ago. Stemming ideas from that era, Saturn V and X2 came up with a testament of evolutionary ideas and musical shape-shifting to bring our influences to the audiences of today.

2AM/FM – Desolate Cities [MOSDEEP004]

2 AM/FM - Desolate Cities

After their collaboration with Traxx on a previous MOS-release, James T. Cotton and D’Marc Cantu team up as 2AM/FM for more serious Chicago House roughness. ‘Desolate Cities’ has all ingredients we love to hear in proper dark house track, this very reminds us to the best works by Phuture. ‘Give This World’ goes more on the melodic tip, and reminds to classic tracks by Virgo, Ron Trent and G-Strings.

Various – Creme Jak Be Somebody ! [CREMEDIGISMACK 01]

Creme Organization round up their impressive team of disco and house mutants for a fairly crucial look at some of their consistently awesome output from the end of this decade. With a roster including James T Cotton (aka Dabrye in jackin’ house mode), Jamal Moss (under multiple pseudonyms like IBM and Africans With Mainframes), Legowelt and D’Marc Cantu you can expect expert teachings from the real raw skool of jack. Particular highlights come from IBM on ‘Music Box’ with 10 mins of sleazy tripping oddness, warehouse reverberating acid from Legowelt on ‘Zompy Land’, sh*t-yer-pants Chicago house from Polarius, and an exceptional contribution from James T Cotton on the funk chopping kicker ‘King Of The Box
