Nightmares On Wax - Aftermath #3 - 24-Mar-08 08:03 AM
The third in the Aftermath series brings NOW's own remix of I'm For Real which doesn't really offer up any radical changes on their classic track just doubles up on the arpeggio and adds different skippy percussion. However if you have the originals like me and can't decide whether to buy this then head to B1 for the proto-Jungle shuffling snares, big bad bass and rave stabs of In Two Minds - pull up my selector!!

Neil Landstrumm / Mike Fellows / Jeremy Blake - The Fourty Million Dollar Beatnik - 26-Jul-07 10:26 AM
A bluesy, hazy, druggy album that conjures up the feeling of being lost in a psychedelic desert. Blake, Fellows and Landstrumm create their own twisted late night Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. Very California but with a dark atmospheric twist.

Purple Kings, The - That's The Way You Do It - 21-Jul-06 12:53 PM
I will never forget the day I walked into the record shop where a friend of mine was working and reviewing the new releases at the time. Upon checking this Dire Straits - "Money For Nothing" sampling monstrosity out he pulled it off the turntable and frisbee'd it across the shop in disgust. That's the way he did it and I would advise everybody else to do the same. Avoid!

DJ Hell* - Diese Momente EP - 13-Jul-06 06:15 AM
Almost 20 years on DJs Hell and Naughty sample the main synth riff from Cerrone's "Generique Pt. 2" (from the 1978 Brigade Mondaine soundtrack) and create a relentless funky groove that builds to dramatic effect.

Mankind (3) - Dr. Who - 21-Mar-06 12:10 PM
Released on cobalt blue vinyl when Tom Baker the Fourth Doctor was at his peak, this funky D.I.S.C.O re-working of the Ron Grainer theme would even make a Sontaran get down on the dancefloor. A vocodered vocal describes the character of the Doctor amid nice delays, bouncy bass and chirpy synths.

The B-side entitled Time Traveller is of no relation whatsoever and in my opinion is a waste of space. It would have better to have a Dub or Remix of the A-side.
