    1. only child featuring veba -find a way -yam who remix-grand central uk 12''
    Yam who?= real deal.lovely lovely lovey.
     
    2.DJ Mitsu the Beats - Ep 2 - Planet Groove 12'' -Japan 12''
    Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ! The one we've been waiting for.''Right Here'' featuring Dwele is simply a piece enchanting music from the killer album from Sendai Producer Mitsu and his ''Awakenings'' album.Theres a collaboration with members of Little brother and a wicked track called ''Rendevous'' featuring Mark de Clive Lowe on the flipside.Essential.
     
    3.Da Lata - Serious - Palm Beats -uk 12''
    Dancefloor devestation personified as West London remixer Paul Seiji goes head to head with Da Lata for already one of the biggest tunes on the dancefloor.Awesome original mixes plus instrumentals on both with sub bass added on Seji's mix for the hips n headz and great drums.Seiji's mix of Steppah Hunter is fantastic but this mix is baaaaaad.
     
    4.racla -zampa/reflection - soul sauce -japan 12''
    as with last single theres a toshio matsuura mix ......flip it over for the soul sauce mixes and check out the sleeve.Best looking giraffs ive seen on a record cover since i dont know when....
     
    5.Koop -Alternative takes ep - Compost - German 12''
    Never let you go' by Carmen Lundy is one of the all time jazz vocal classics.....Yukimi Nagano is one of the most spine tingling
    female vocalists around today.Here Koop's live version recorded live at Motion Blue in Yokohama has Yukimi delivering spine tingling listening pleasures that'll make you think some one has off loaded half a dozen ice cubes down the neck of your shirt.Hird...Two banks of four & a mix by mikael nordgren mixes on the 12 aswell but when you hear 'Never let you go' the first time....you'll be re winding the rest of the week.
     
    6.Bakura-veya,veya- /thinking about -  - Especial cd. Japan
    Next installment from Osaka label Especial that i think i'll get into the shops on vinyl 12'' around the end of next month.Cida de Assis teams up with Domu & Marin to deliver a future brazilian classic whilst 'thinking about' which has already been played by Gilles n' Patrick on da radio has a melody that will uplift your spirit and fill your dancefloor with booty swaying singing girls !!
     
    7.Don carlos-take me higher featuring michelle weeks  -irma unlimited - usa 12''
    Yukihiro Fukutomi on the remix.oH MY GOD ! uplifting anthem that has the strongest of men going weak at the knees & previewed on the radio show a few weeks ago .You neeeed this.......U dig ?!?
     
    8.viva brasil - skindo le le -7 bridges/p vine -japan 12''
    im very late on this 12....(i know im crap ! )as its been out a month ......but finally i get my mitts on a copy that has skindo le le & batucada recorded live at the kabuki theatre in san francisco in 1983.club tastic.
     
    9.headtop -sweet power - uk 12'' white
    remember mad shit ?this is the same crew with a 4/4 version of a james mason classic that does the do.
     
    10.various -family planning vol 2 -mainsqueeze uk 12''
    4 tracker.....peven everett (you lot seen him live yet ?)goes for a re rub on gabriel pt2 and theres tracks from da one away....likwid biscuit & a great track from quango feat lain.
     
    11.astor piazolla -vuelvo -remixed by koop -chicooligan usa 12''
    4 hero take on el viaje but its koops mix that tickles my fancy.....
     
    12.didier sound system -composition *6 -Timmion - Finland 7''
    Great little 7'' from Didier.Tall man with long hair & da beats.mid tempo afro shanigans on a funky slab of wax.300 pressed.super limited.respects to da jussi & sampsa for the tip off.
     
    13.earth wind & fire -never -cutting edge - japan 12''
    maurice white & gregory curtis track gets remixed in vocal & instrumental form by the very respectable sunaga t.very nice indeed.
     
    14.d.o.i -audible ep 2 -revirth - japan 12''
    its deep.stick with it....big on the bass notes and then trickling keys & rhodes gently nudge you into submission.At the half way stage you're hooked and then there's no looking back before the rhodes solo teases you and you're sold till its close.we love love love this.subtle ness is in !
     
    15.Kentaro Takizawa -Driving -High Contrast - Japan 12''
    We liked the last single and this is the followup....Head straight for the flip side for some jazzy trumpet & bass led jazz fusion over some decent house production.
     
    16.passion dance orchestra -worlds theme 2 -needs -german 12''
    everyone 'needs' some needs in their world.these are the remixes of the club favorite coming out november 10th.
     
    17.tama wai para -april lady -obliquesound -uk/usa 12''?
    nice vocals on this 12 but im heading for the wai wan instrumental who consistently throughout his career has nocked up some fine productions.
     
    18.Force Of Natures - Forces oF Nature - Exceptional 2 x 12'' LP
    At last......the Japanese press of this album was extremely limited on vinyl so hooray for everyone as this rock solid album see's light of day on a uk pressing through Exceptional Records www.exceptionalrecords.co.uk. Well respected members of the Japanese underground, Kent & KZA took 3 years to make this album which although initially came out over a year ago Im forever going back to.Classic album.
     
    19.various - required listening volume 1 & 2 - do right - canada 12'''s
    2 great singles from John Kong's Do Right label.More styles presented over two slabs of vinyl than London Fashion week but its all good as John brings us previously unheard gems from Toronto.From hip hop to house to soul and all points in between John delivers the ''something for everyone'' strategy and comes out smelling of cherry pie.My particular favourites are Pedras da rua with Terra DoBravo & Ivana Santilli with 'what matters' but theres 7 tracks laid over 2 12's so go seek !
     
    20.double exposure/skyy-everyman/call me - -vel 001 -japan 12
    looks like a booty to me and has a killer version of everyman re edited by joe clausell whilst blaze do the do on call me from skyy.
    apparently pressed in usa for the japan market.
     
    21.jeff bradshaw -slide- hidden beach usa 12''
    soooooooooooo.....soulful....buy it.
     
    22.Jafrosax -Jafrosax ep -Raindog -Japan 12''
    New single with a collaboration from Yukimi Nagano (koop/Hird/Stateless/Similou)and Yukihiro Fukutomi.....It's jazzy house which grows on you and its big with Frankie Valentine apparently.
     
    23.plej - you - exceptional -uk 12''
    Looking for a soulful track to brighten up your morning on an autumn morning to uplift your day ?Look no further ! You found it !
    Jonatan Backelie on vocals and we all know how good that makes it....U dig ?
     
    24.Fragile State -Every day a story -bar da lune- uk 12''
    4 hero production.nuff said.
     
    25.Natures Plan -Somewhere beyond -far out - uk 12''
    oragnic goodness ! 4 hero production and carina andersson (remember les fleur'? )on vocals.
     
    26.jersey street - burning - electric chair -uk 12''
    raw deal on the mix......nicely does it boogie boyeeeee.
     
    27.Dinning Rooms -Flamenco Sketches - Nicola Conte Version - Schema 12'' -Italy
    Ahhhhhh......The latest top notch ,don dadda Nicola Conte remix comes to us in the shape of a rework for those rather fine Italian gentlemen...The Dining Rooms.Due in September with a John 'Do Right' Kong remix to come , Nicola (the nu jazz bossa king supremo....)comes through with a scorcher so hot that you'll need blister cream at the ready.His version is modal jazz with an afro cuban jazz beat.The flute player,Nicola Stilo uses Coltrane esque scales whilst on keys Mirko Signorile shifts to a Bill Evans approach.The mix was completed during the recording sessions for Nicola's new album so it has the same sound and conception of it.And trust me if you hear this record and are feeling a little damp with excitement then trust me......you'll need nappies when you hear Nicola's forthcoming album not dropping till early 2004.Me ? well...I've heard it and all my trousers now have elasticated bottoms to stop any leakage.
     
    28. russ gabriel -spirit of corea soulman on wax-uk 12''
    no title for this promo but what you get is an brass stabbed thumping afro bumpin guitar led groove with great keys underpinned by a 4/4.love it !
     
    29.Penny Drop -ma futura featuring Hilton Smith -
    unmistakeable sound of Roots Manuva masquerading with Hilton Smith personna with this low slung low end bass bumpin,rump shakin,hip swaying groove over the soul drenched soulfulness of  ma futura.
     
     
    30.electric sheep - naked moon -hmv/quality -japan 12
    limited edition 12 with shuya okino & hajime yoshizawa joining for a lush 12 journey.Respects to the drew 4 comin thru.love this record and after a dig at home i discover that i have the track on a promo only one sided 12''     from a year ago.Moral of the story ? Know your records Wezzer!!....Saw the hmv pressing go for 120 a few weeks ago on ebay.....golly !
