For the third volume of this hip Japanese series, Travelphonic go to New York – and come up with a batch of some of the best singles from the Giant Step label! Giant Step's been a key part in fusing the underground soul and club scenes in the Big Apple – and their singles have always been one of their strongest calling cards over the years. This package is a great overview of that work, and features 10 tracks in all, a few of which are out of print – including "Twisted" by Ultra Nate, "Stars (Tauriva mix)" and "I Realized" by Jiva, "Surrender" by Seek, "La Noche Y El Dia (Ananda Project voc)" by Susana Baca, "Saturday Night Experience (Shelter voc)" by Jody Watley, "Rideaway Getaway (Blaze rmx)" by Agent K, "Lamentations)" by Carl Hancock Rux, and "Heaven Sent" by Donnie. CD

A great little collection that seeks to put the Bristol scene on the map – and to show the kind of inventive jazz the city's been offering up in recent years! The compilers aim to demonstrate that Bristol has as many newly-creative acts as the sort that have been bubbling up in London on labels like Brownswood – and the range of material here really shows a similar way of blending newer ideas and older execution – especially strong in the rhythm department, and with an effortless mixing of acoustic and electric modes. If you've been digging sounds from Comet Is Coming, Nubya Garcia, and Joe Armon-Jones, this set is a great place to take that interest further – on work that includes "Bergson" and "Jabba" by Waldo's Gift, "3.3 Encke Ups" and "Sea Of Apathy & Indifference" by Run Logan Run, "Flump (Ishamel Ensemble rework)" and "Grook" by Snazzback, "Owl" by Lyrebird, and "Bourdain" by Alun Elliott Williams.
