01: ZINC & MS DYNAMITE
âWILE OUTâ
(BINGO BASS 12â)
âMeanwhile Crack Houseâs âBlunt Edgeâ returns, recast with a more memorable vocal from Dynamite as A-side âWile Outâ. Effectively a sequel to âGet Lowâ, her vocal of Geeneusâs âCrackishâ, itâs another deadly appearance from UK garageâs first lady, sounding sweet and spitting hard in equal measures.â â full review here
02: FANTASTIC MR. FOX
âSKETCHESâ
(BLACK ACRE 10â)
Frazzled circuits and stuttered pistons ascend dangerously close to Heaven in one of the maddest â and most brilliant â electronic tracks of the year so far. Superb Sbtrkt remix on the B-side, but itâs hard to fail with source material this ecstatic.
03: RICHIE DAVIS
âLEAN BOOTâ
(UNITY / HONEST JON’S 12″)
Having previously released Watch How The People Dancing, an essential compilation of 80s tracks from Unity â âthe worldâs greatest digi labelâ, this month Honest Jon’s gave several of its strongest riddims well-deserved 12″ single pressings. It’s hard to pick a favourite, but Richie Davis’s sweet, swinging and almost infuriatingly catchy ‘Lean Boot’ is the one we can’t turn off.
04: PATRICE SCOTT
âDISTANCE AGAINST TIMEâ
(SISTRUM 12â)
High-velocity soul from Detroit house producer Patrice Scott, a sleek, forward-thrusting groove offset by phased sci-fi synths and piano notes reflecting off its surface like moonlight off dark water.
05: KRYSTAL KLEAR
âANTEATERâ

âWith a debut release coming soon on All City â a label that have put out material by Hudson Mohawke, Mike Slott, Dabrye and more in recent years â Krystal Klear combines heavy analogue bump with amazing, light-headed melodies that will appeal to fans of Dam-Funk, Gosub, Kyle Hall and James Pantsâ â download here
