SM:)E, 1995. Used CD
A nice early single from 4 Hero – with their early squelchy techno meets breakbeat sound, a far cry from the elegant modern tones they make now.

Chilli Funk/Internal Bass, 1999. Used CD
Fantastic stuff – and an instant classic! East West Connection have come up with an incredibly soulful batch of deep house tracks here – mixing together classic soul, touches of jazz funk, and some incredibly warm and moody rhythms. The result is a beautiful batch of grooves that will

From the dancefloor, to the jazz combo, and back again – the Re:Jazz project takes a surprising twist with this remix follow-up to their brilliant first album! On that outing, Re:Jazz re-made recent dancefloor tunes in new jazz-based versions – going for the warmest, most soulful

Dorado/TVT, 1993. Used CD
D*Note's first full length, before Charlie Sexton delved into the jazzy drum and bass thing, when he was still working in the tight modern jazz funk vein! Includes "Judgement", "Babel", "Now Is The Time", "Aria", "The Mandarin & The Courtesan",&

Flower (Japan), 2004. Used CD
A hard-driving mix of soulful house tracks – put together by Yukihiro Fukutomi, whose own work is pretty darn soulful too! The set skips along in a really pulsating groove – one that has a surprising amount of acoustic percussion percolating around the bottom of the rhythms, while

Village Again (Japan), 2006. Used CD
The cover's got a retro look, but the music is all modern – a great selection of contemporary cosmic soul numbers, all picked by the mysterious Black Finger! There's a style here that's very much in the vibe of Especial Records – and like that label, most of the work here is from both

Tokuma (Japan), 2003. Used CD
Do these guys ever get tired of making great records? We think not – and this sweet little 8 track set is more than proof of that fact! The album's a slice of Jazztronik's mellower side – the warmer, jazzier, more Brazilian-styled tunes that have always set them apart from most other

Groovetown, 1995. Used CD
We've got to be honest and admit that we always felt that Brooklyn Funk Essentials were one of those second generation bandwagon jumpers of the acid jazz scene, though this LP is not without some redeeming moments, principally the Masta Ace remix of their take on the Pharoah Sanders classic "Cr

R&S (Belgium), 1995. Used CD
One of the pseudonyms 4 Hero issued drum & bass under, with their signature jazzy soulful tones, but some serious breakbeat action too, reminding you they mean business. 11 tracks in all, including "Fragments Of A Lost Language", "The Naphosisous Wars", "The Chase The

Lo Recordings (UK), 2006. Very Good+
New grooves, but with an older dancefloor style – recorded here in a sound that's got lots of the dark electronics that showed up on the European scene in the early 80s! At many levels, this record is one that could have played big in the clubs in Berlin or Manchester, circa 1983 – as

|
Eightball, 1994. Very Good+ 2LP
Great stuff from the early days of the New York Giant Steps/8 Ball/acid jazz scene! Despite the title, most of the track have house music at the base – but in keeping with the New York approach to acid jazz in the early 90s, most of the cuts are seasoned with a very healthy dose of real

BBE (UK), 2010. New Copy
Afro club thumping grooves from South Africa's Spoek Mathambo – a far reaching world of sounds blending expertly crafted electro funk, South African kwaito, and globally enriched grooves of many kinds. It's unpredictable from on cut to the next, and it's compelling where ever it goes!

Ricky Tick (Japan), 2010. New Copy
Another amazing moment from the Ricky Tick label – an imprint we've trusted since their very first single, and one who never lets us down! As with other Ricky Tick projects, which seek to revive the best sounds of European jazz from years back, this big band set sparkles with the sort of
