The release preserves the most sleek of Alton's signature.

Patrick Luca's cultured Island Issues returns with a run of new releases for 2025, starting with Madrid Issues. This various artists collection focuses on producers based in Madrid and features label friends old and new including Damián Schwartz, José Cabrera, Dubbyman, DJ F, Deenamic and Caustica. Deenamic has been making moves for years on labels like Freebeat, Neroli & Mother Tongue's curated Yellow Jackets. His 'Mad-430' is a moody and lo-fi dub house cut that opens in deep and atmospheric fashion with deft synth lines woven into the mix. Next is Prayers For The Long Life head honcho DJ F, who has worked under various aliases and explored a range of sounds across the acid, electro, techno and house spectrum. He offers 'D-Mind' which is a sweet blend of grinding, mechanical house groves and glowing melodies that leave hypnotic and wispy trails. Caustica is a mysterious alias from a producer also known as Diffuse Arc and Persa, that works across downtempo, house and electro. His 'Tears' is a lively jam with electro rhythms doused in lush synth harmonies and a warm machine soul. The flip-side opens with a remix from usual suspect Dubbyman, who is a specialist of deep atmospherics. He remixes Chirie Vegas's 'Fackin' Jacks' ft. Kunta-K and flips it into a dubby beatdown with low-slung and rolling kicks, Spanish rap vocals and loved-up chords for a feel-good late-night sound. Then comes master craftsman Damián Schwartz, a richly musical house expert: his 'Azul' is a punchy deep house vibe with leggy kicks and jazzy synth improvisations that dart about above classic Detroit chords. Last of all, José Cabrera is another Spanish mainstay who co-runs A Harmless Deed with Schwartz and has his own raw style. 'Game Over' taps into classic house with cowbells, hopeful chord structures and a warm, balmy groove that brings the good times. Madrid Issues shines a light on the rich vein of underground talent that call the Spanish capital home while also offering up plenty of tasteful club sounds.

Forbidden Dance Records proudly presents its 10th vinyl release: “Various Shades Vol. 1”—a milestone that encapsulates the label’s commitment to diverse and innovative dance music. This V.A. EP features a carefully curated lineup of artists, blending renowned names with emerging talents: Patrice Scott, Aleqs Notal, XDB and Gary Superfly.

Cataleya Music continues in 2025 with Coflo covering Stevie, remixed by Glenn Underground. Coflo grew tremendously as a producer in 2024, dropping the fantastic If It Goes on Cataleya towards the end of the year. His cover of Visions sparkles with vocals from Nimiwari and positive synths. We last heard Nimiwari on Exclusively, the fourth release on Cataleya. Glenn Underground needs little introduction. The Chicago native has been creating incredible music since the early 1990s. His main home today is Strictly Jaz Unit Muzic. Glenn Underground's Nova Journey remix of Visions features a lively bassline, thoughtful keys and layered vocals. The package is rounded off with Coflo's Backside Dub. This is a deeper version with sparkling keys and calming vocals. Visions is a fantastic package!

Trinidadian Deep is once again back on Neroli [his 8th contribution since 2012], this time joined by Chicago’s Light Work Productions. ‘Orisha Stomp’ (Rework) is a fierce percussive and pulsating jam while ‘Italo Disco’ is a relentless melodic builder. On the flipside ‘U R Loved’ closes the record with its trance inducting romantic vibes! Deep!

No Return! Soul Quest are proud to present the latest release from Berlin based DJ and producer Jean-Jez, who continues on with a musical journey with flourishing roots and a bright, bright future. Jean-Jez has made waves in Berlin’s underground for a good while now, with his Kedi Bounce parties (whom he co-founded) quickly becoming a celebratory cornerstone of community and culture. His DJing style and production approach act as a core expressional loop, with Jean-Jez embracing a multitude of styles and sounds with both. Bridging the gap between house, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Afro-Latin and beyond, Jean-Jez is all about nurturing the collective joy found within music - either through his own tunes or deep in the mix at a Kat Nip party. ‘Soul Notion’ wears its heart on its sleeve and embodies the core musical principles to which Jean-Jez holds so very dear. ‘Did you want to dance!’ kicks things off with a deep melodic embrace, before spreading outwards with brassy frills, evocative simmering drumming patterns and vocal samples which kick the inner consciousness into another gear. ‘Take me to the moon’ contains an up and front piano lead, with uptempo drums providing a twist and flair to proceedings. Some inspired vocals add further to the atmosphere, one of airiness and emotional escapism. ‘What is it tell me’ stirs into life with a wide scope through the low ends, but Jean-Jez cooks up a storm with some wondrous jazz guitar that weaves one final spell to get lost deep within. To wrap things up, Jean-Jez enlists his own collective: Kedi Bounce to put an Acid twist on ‘Did You Want To Dance’ to close the ep in style. This mix is exclusive to the vinyl mix and won’t be released digitally. Jean-Jez looks to celebrate and resonate through his music, and this EP is a full demonstration of his abilities to bring things together. Seamlessly blending some of his favourite styles, this record contains all the feels to be wished for, and an experience that leaves plenty of room for return visits, this EP has you covered.

Italo house has enjoyed quite a resurgence in the last few years, with plenty of new releases popping up that sound convincingly authentic in their production and aesthetic. It's always nice to savour the real deal, though, and it doesn't get much more real than the one and only Don Carlos when it comes to direct-from-the-source dreamy 90s peninsula house. Here, the Don compiles a comprehensive selection of classics from the genre. With shimmering pads, soulful vocals and synth-flute leads aplenty, this bygone LP is steeped in both nostalgia and not-so-subtle reminders that not too many of the more recent pretenders have added a great deal to the form. Highlights permeate the comp, from Montego Bay's 'Everything' to Kwanzaa Posse's 'Wicked Funk'. The unabashed positivity of Golem's 'Music Sensations' makes for a welcome addition, as does the driving synth energy of Eagle Parade's 'I Believe'. In truth, the LP doesn't put a foot wrong, transporting listeners to the balmy hedonism of golden-age Rimini. Though it's never good to generalise, the old adage 'Italians do it better' certainly seems apt here.

A great mixture of jazz, funk, afrobeat and house on new album by Italian outfit Asakaira for Quattro Bambole. "Asakaira is the name of a place that does not exist, an "invisible city" that is the backdrop to the meeting of four musicians. Michele Vassallo (sax and efx), Giuseppe Desiderio (bass), Francesco Fasanaro (percussion) and Giuseppe Limpido (drums) who together have already gone through various experiences to immerse themselves in an imaginary space, of the border! So, they exploit this nature to transcend the limit, throwing caution to the wind with carefree abandon, but not before carefully noting the history and legacy of jazz, hip-hop and afrobeat. Asakaira' s sound is psychedelic, fluid, constantly evolving: afrobeat & jazz punk alternate with funk, electronic music of Mediterranean culture. An absolutely "stateless" sound, while maintaining its own timbre and stylistic coherence to make it recognizable. The choice of not having a harmonic instrument present in the lineup gives ample space to electronic effects and the groove, creating a sort of modern ritual. The eponymous debut album, released by Quattro Bambole Records, consists of seven tracks, in which the ability to reinterpret their native sounds with polysemic rhythms emerges in a work where layered drums and percussions intertwine with effected saxophones and psychedelic bass lines. A path that moves between songs with a more "ethereal" ancestry, such as the opening track "Night Tales", an acoustic groove that rests on the use of the handpan, an idiophone instrument that gives the song a psychedelic vibration and like "Chatting With You" where a soft and extended overlapping of multiple musical meters emerges, between neo soul, jazz and hip-hop."
