Feature continues

Kitsuné Maison Compilation 3 Kitsuné

Green & Blue: Loco Dice & Ricardo Villalobos In The Mix

Green & Blue: Loco Dice & Ricardo Villalobos In The Mix Cocoon

A Bugged Out Mix By Miss Kittin

A Bugged Out Mix By Miss Kittin Resist
‘Two CDs to lose yourself in: a Perfect Night opens with a cheeky Princess Superstar a cappella before DJ Ki’s menacing beat kicks in. A Perfect Day is, well, just that. All in, what a weekend.’ (April)


Semtex Presents Grimewave Antidote
‘A who’s who of London grime. Dizzee, Lethal Bizzle, Kano, Whiley, Roll Deep… they’re all here and they’re killer fresh cuts, mixed by Semtex into a fierce night out on a dark dancefloor.’ (October)

The Kings Of Diggin’ – Compiled By Kon & Amir And DJ Muro Rapster
‘This double CD set is a slick eye-opener into freaky funk and daring samba disco and by far the best in the series yet.’ (July)

Gypsy Beats and Balkan Bangers

Gypsy Beats And Balkan Bangers Atlantic Jaxx
‘A superb collection of klezmer classics, Ukrainian beauties and almost ludicrously uplifting tunes.’ (June)

Party-Keller Vol.2 Compost
‘A great successor to the equally ace first compilation, which nods to old skool funk, disco, hip hop and soul classics and gives them all a new edge.’ (November).

Fabric 30: Rub N Tug Fabric
‘Just like their sublime ’n’ seedy club sets, disco’s trashed and made to feel filthy, house soars like a cheer in the room, and electro basslines beat the speakers into submission.’ (September)

The Hacienda Classics – Compiled And Mixed By Peter Hook Virgin
‘Peter Hook’s three-CD compilation actually manages to nail what it felt like to be in the best British club of all time.’ (April)

Special thanks to all the reviewers in 2006!
