Apparently DJ Harvey and Lovebirds have been hammering these "personal edits" from the Sirsounds crew in recent DJ sets. Listening to the clips, it's easy to work out why: they're a cut above the rest, edit-wise. There's a good variety of sounds and styles on show, from the stuttering drums, blissful guitars, dewy-eyed vocal snippets and rich boogie synths of "Love Me Right (Version)", to the eyes-closed synth solos and driving disco-funk grooves of quirky closing cut "What Does It Take". Our pick of the bunch though has to be the effortlessly eccentric Italian electro-funk insanity of "SASA", which sounds a little like it could be a lesser-known outing by Tullio De Piscopo (though don't quote us on that).

Pontchartrain is Detroit producer Dustin Alexander, an edit specialist and long time collector who aims to make people happy and at home with his music. He certainly does that here with a lush selection of jazz fleck deep house. "Love Is Madness (The Friends & Lovers Dub)" is a smooth grooving number awash with heart swelling chords, while "I-80" is laced with drifting trumpets and new age ambiance that encourages you to dream while you dance. Demuja offers a feel good mix of "Love Is Madness" on the flip and Simon Black & Leafar closes out with old school feelings, irresistible chords and sexy sax lines.
