DJ Rashad - Itz Not Rite EP
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Planet Mu's commendable Juke and Footwork agenda turns out a heavyweight EP from scene lynchpin, DJ Rashad. With his releases on Juke Trax and Databass plus countless DJ spots around Chicago, Rashad advanced the Booty styles of his peers, DJ Funk, Gantman, Paul Johnson and DJ Godfather, to form Juke as we know it today. Following DJ Nate's awesome album, Rashad drops six heavily functional heat generators, from the taut, bombastic velocity of 'Itz Not Rite' to the hyper-bounce of 'On Da Cush', the rampant acid tweak of 'Who Da Coldest' and the centrifugal soul samples of 'Baby'. Make no mistake, this is fiyah for the dance!!!

Like a less raw, more polished big brother to DJ Nate's frantic hip-hop dance tracks. Pretty great.

Tropics - Soft Vision EP
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Planet Mu enter that parallel '80s zone that's seemingly swallowed up half the youth of today, presenting the emotive debut release from Tropics. This melancholy young man has already been touted by the likes of Pitchfork and XLR8R and caught the attention of Lucky Dragons, who asked him to remix their 'A New' with lovely results. Over these three tracks Tropics taps into that nostalgic vibe but with a more muscular, modern lean, acknowledging IDM programming dynamics to articulate his style. 'Give It Up' jams on a cosmic disco soulboy flow with gorgeous twinkling melodies and haunting Annie Lennox-alike vocals, while 'Melorr' approaches the same slo-mo boogie spot as the Thriller edits and the immensely popular ' Soft Vision' sounds like a widescreen version of the Games tracks. We can imagine this fella turning out a fairly wicked album...

The title track dropped on XLR8R a few months back and it was one of the songs of the Summer, in my opinion. Cavernous and warm, like Brainfeeder stuff sans all the amphetamine jitters. Another big score for Planet Mu.

Julio Bashmore - Chazm / Footsteppin'
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Brizzle's Julio Bashmore impresses yet again with two tracks for the Ten Thousand Yen label, fresh outta Swansea's burgeoning Bass music scene. Apparently these tracks were inspired by Julio's recent trip to Finland, where he competed in the International Amateur Rifle shooting championships. He was victorious, in case you're wondering. Most notably this release includes the magical 'Footsteppin' jam, a true anthem in the making, full of Deep House sensuality and infectious garage swing. Currently on rotation with Brackles and TRG among others. The more tribalist 'Chazm' takes the flipside, smoothly blending sub-loaded, cruising rhythms with a hovering tropical synthline to brilliant effect. Choice!

Dødpøp Vol 2
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Dødpøp provide an outlet for the freakiest Norwegian strains of Skweee with their second label compilation, featuring 15 tracks from Beatbully, Sprutbass, Spartan Lover, Daniel Savio, Rigas Den Andre, and Marcus Price, among others. The production values are noticeably elevated for this installment, not that it was ever a bad thing, it just seems like they've all consciously upped their game is all - and with ace results. The choicest selections come courtesy of Niño and his G-Funked roller 'Get On The Floor', from Marcus Price (he of 'Mat, Bira, Kvinnor, Weed' fame) and his crumbled crunk joint 'Negro Cookies', and definitely Slow Hand Motëm & Beatbully's 'Expecting Company', a drugged-off slowstyle R'n'B song with arcing arpeggios and brilliant lyrics. That's totally not to discount other winners like Beem's 'Manka' and tru-core 8-bit Skweee like Sprutbass's 'Alley Oop Es' and Slugabed's teeth-grindingly discordant remix of Melkeveien's 'Yo!', because they're all good too! Highly Recommended.

Isaac Himself - Kunst
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Crushing, dubstep-inspired 'tronics from Isaac Himself, founder of the Analogue Quadrant label. 'Kunst' lays a framework of cavernous halfstep drums to hold a surge of melodic energy, next to the razored synth progressions of 'Cohort Grammer', dischordant power-IDM on 'Youths Abundant Fruits' and DMX Krew alike electro in 'I Request An Audience'. Recommended!

remixes of a killer track. Worth it even just for the tensnake remix which uses a C+C Music Factory sample.
