Satisfying in all the right ways, he is not afraid to show a bit of muscle in the low end with a captivating growl. Bushwacka takes a less dramatic approach, letting the track swell slowly and builds momentum.

The fruits of their collaboration is “Discordia”, which again sees the release towards a slightly more abrasive and mysterious take on dance floor techno. Rounding off this impressive debut is ViL in solo mode, with the tough, percussive “Szandor”. Download Direct Downloads

Having been a staple in the Parisian scene for over two decades, DJ Deep’s vast knowledge of electronic music is indisputable making his return to production in recent years all the more exciting, releasing on Tresor, Rekids, and his highly regarded label Deeply Rooted. ‘La Grande Brasserie’ features rolling kicks and a subtle rhythm as futuristic stabs ebb in and out of the mix, contrasting to the ‘2e Service’ version which, whilst sharing a similar aesthetic, sounds bigger with its echoing synths and infectious claps.

Fusing that rare narrative alchemy that sings across dancefloors universally, they continue to tap into the essence of house and techno with a precision sense of playfulness and poignancy… And turn heads on every occasion. This return to Sasha’s Last Night On Earth is no exception. The follow up to last summer’s ‘Rufos’ EP, once again it shows the foursome at their most evocative, widescreen and, in the case of ‘Somerset’, most ardently euphoric. A beautiful tune named after the UK’s most beautiful county, it’s a rolling, break-based evangelise that endlessly lifts with timeless rising chords and a that cent vibe that can’t help but take you back to ‘Northern Exposure’-era 90s. ‘Nuan’ offers serious uplift, too. The payoff from an enduring deep drive, everything is based on the striking, crystalline vocal textures that help turn the track into …

Described by Hypercolour as ‘spacey and dusty deepness’ and that’s pretty on point. Vocals are provided by one Rev Be, which Rozel utilises across these three versions. The deep bleep techno of “Better Weather” in its original version calls to mind the sounds of northern UK sounds from the early ’90s, the trippy dub version – or Phazed version – is vaguely reminiscent of Derrick experiments around the same time with its funked up, flanged out and reversed elements galore. Finally is the more straight ahead and dancefloor friendly bounce of the Abyss version. Download Direct Downloads

German veteran Ian Pooley sets the tone with the jacking, acid-tinged deep house bounce of “Time”, before M Ono shows off his synthesizer soloing skills via the glassy-eyed Balearic house brilliance of “Waffelhaus”. Iron Curtis’s contribution, “The Further You Look”, sounds simultaneously low-slung and gently dreamy (it’s a fine combination), while Black Loops doff a cap to the greats of disco-house via the funk-fuelled, sample-heavy stomp of “Is This A Banger?” If you’re in …
