The second great batch of tracks from Chilli Funk Records – and like the first, a warm soulful selection of modern house tracks, with plenty of acoustic jazz in the mix, and a really strong sound all the way through. Titles include "Que Calor" by Soul Camp, "Kurage (daylight mix)" by Su Paka Pooh, "Mint Sauce" by East West Connection, "Surgical Spirit" by East West Connection, "Mundo Latino" by Ghetto Swing, "Never Lost Faith (deep mix)" by UC Heights with Anthony Flanagan, "Off & On (bush shuffle mix)" by Lacarno & Burns, "Waiting On The Corner" by Man Alive, and "Loca Blue" by DSL & Nate Juan. CD

A surprisingly great little album – recorded on the occasion of the Ensemble's third decade in music, and a record that sounds a lot better than we remember! At the time of release, we kind of "pooh poohed" this one because of its divergence from some of the group's other styles – some tracks are straighter, more composed, and less improvised; others use a larger sound palette, and go for themes that are almost sentimental and nostalgic at times. Yet somehow, going back to this one, we're stunned at how interesting we find the whole thing – as each track seems to offer up a new surprise, and the series of musical visions expressed shows how much the group had grown during their time together. Includes the wonderful "Prayer For Jimbo Kwesi", the percussive jammer "Third Decade", the sonorously-wonderful "Bell Piece", and the tracks "Walking In The Moonlight", "Zero", and "Funky AECO". LP, Vinyl record album
