I think Quiet Move by Captain Mustard has to be my favourite Lovefingers track. What was yours? Thank you
Lovefingers.
You can tell a bit about an artist just from the label they appear on.
Sui Generis has featured with Rush Hour and Soma, so you know there is going to be elements of techno and house. What you might not know until you listen is just how amazing it sounds.
Taken from
Shlomi Aber's Be As One label is this from
Itamar Sagi. Repetitive tech-house is good.

Debut ArtQuite a peculiar
Kenny Larkin track. Taken from a split with Incogdo aka Carl Craig & Derrick May.
Panorama Bar favourite XDB has out on
Wave Music the
Lost Tapes EP which really highlights this guys raw talent when it comes to producing a wide range of electronic music styles
Dorothy's Fortress had a couple of belting disco-house EP's out last year. More prolific than Retro/Grade.

This is taken off
Rising Sun's fantastic debut
12" Sun Dance. Deep minimal house music, complemented superbly by a gorgeous remix wrapped in cotton wool from
Sven Weisemann.
2009 saw the emergence of
Cottam, an artist who I am very keen to hear more of this year. Hailing from Preston he'd been soaking up electronic music for years in various forms before finally coming up with his own winning formula, his
three EP's to date have all been received superbly, offering a sumptuous deep house sound that often samples and re-works old soul, funk and r'n'b tracks. Fans of
Soul Clap, take note.
This is
a 30 minute mix that I have done for the guys at
The Joint and their weekly radio show. Cheers guys!
Tracklist:
Servi - Laistrygonen
Abraham - Magpie
Mark E - Codsall Juniors
Paskal - Sweet Settings
John Talabot - Naomi
Comtron - C64 Carat (Tom Trago Remix)
Idioma - Landscapes (Tim Paris Remix)
Geheimtipp - Geheimtipp 3 Side A
Ron Geesin - Mominous
John Daly - Juno Skies
Stream/DownloadHmm, I guess Sweet Settings by
Paskal was one of the most slept on tracks of last year. So, so beautiful. Paskal also features on
Etoka's celebratory 20th release. Lot's of nice minimal through to deep house on there.

Hey Oscar WildeAnd normal service resumes, will hopefully post a bit more now :)
Going back to 1998 is this by Family Of God on In Flagranti's
Codek Records... amazing stuff as you'd expect. You can find this and other pre-millenium Codek cuts on
Blast Head's
Middle Taste Of Codek. So good.
More curio old stuff getting editted and re-released.
Cowley and Socarras get editted here by Morgan Geist, but there's also a remix by Oni Ayhun in this package!
Out on
Wurst Edits is the sublime
Latin Combo by
Ulysses, upbeat disco for the modern dancefloor.
This starts off on a fairly similar track to the original, then
KiNK descends into darkness, bass and acidic oscillating synths. Nice.
Chicago inspired house from
Lil' Tony. His latest
Underground Sound Of Helsinki EP is pure goodness throughout.
Spanish tech-house from
Memphis, simple yet very effective and refreshing production based around some strange, strange vocal sample. Like it a lot.
Again, loving the relative simplicity of this
Martin Buttrich track for
Desolat.
