Maybe our favorite record ever from Thievery Corporation – and one that really stays true to the sound of all the styles that have inspired them! For over a decade, the duo have been playing with elements borrowed from bossa nova, old soundtracks, French pop, and lounge – but this is ... CD

A brilliantly soulful set from Nicola Conte – a record that's got all the tight jazzy instrumentation we love in his other records, but one that's also got some wonderful vocal work as well! Singers are a perfectly-chosen batch of the best of the underground – and include Jose James, ... LP, Vinyl record album

A relatively unsung collaboration between Freddie Cruger and Anthony Mills – working together as Wildcookie – who bake up a pretty tasty mix of eclectic beats and synthy soul production, and freeform soul vocals. The vibe is just wigged out enough, with a oddball lyricism grounded by a ... LP, Vinyl record album

Onur Engin's "Night Images" gets refreshed, remixed and revisited nicely by house legend Glenn Underground, Ptaki and Inkswel on this solid single on Glenview! 12-inch, Vinyl record

Modal brilliance from Gerardo Frisina – possibly his greatest album ever, and a set that really shows his true transformation into a jazzman! The set's got a wide range of acoustic jazz instrumentation played live, and features none of the rhythm programs you might get on earlier Frisina ... LP, Vinyl record album

A low price, but a really great package – one that's overflowing with some of the best recent work from the mighty Schema Records! If you read these pages at all, you'll know we think that Schema's one of the greatest things going these days – a modern label, but one that's committed ... CD

Plenty of movement from the great Gerardo Frisina – a set that's awash in all the Latin and modal elements we've always loved in his music – and a record that filled with jazzy touches throughout! Rhythms are both live and programmed – but even the latter have a very spontaneous ... CD

It's been awhile since we've heard from Red Astaire (aka Freddie Cruger), but it's definitely been worth the wait – as it's given him time to dig through his vaults, and come up with this second volume of rare recordings! Most of these cuts have never been issued before – and represent ... LP, Vinyl record album

First half of the second volume in one of the defining moments of music in the 90s! While the first collection of Headz set off the whole trip hop phenomenon, this set reached further afield, involving techno, post rock and even digging up a few more recent historic moments in the development of ... CD

The album that was supposed to set the pace for a new generation of beatmakers and foretell the sound of music to come, from the late 90s heyday of drum and bass, when it seemed as if things were really poised to jump off for Roni Size and his Bristol massive. Perhaps the larger musical community ... CD

A stunning full length CD from Nuspirit Helsinki – far more soulful than any of their earlier singles, with a unified feel that we never expected, and a solid sound that will keep us coming back to this one for years! The record's infused with strands of recent work from London and the ... CD

A totally great live set from Quasimode – and one that really returns the combo to the core brilliance of their first few records from Japan! The setting is completely unfurled and unbridled – the main quartet soaring away in a fast flurry of piano, bass, and percussion – always ... CD

A great new groove from Quasimode – and a set that has the combo really coming across with a sound that's more sensitive than before! The quartet still have their great ear for a strong bottom on their jazz tunes, but most numbers here move in a midtempo speed, instead of their previous ... CD

A great little package of grooves from London – featuring some of the best soulful underground tunes of the past few years, picked from import labels that we've been stocking on pricey singles, all compiled here as a great introduction to one of the strongest trends in modern music! Titles ... CD

Bossa via Paris – and a wonderfully dreamy set from the team of Tom & Joy! Joy is actually Joyce Hoze Liwer, a beautiful vocalist whose approach to the lyrics not only recalls some of the bossa greats of earlier years, but who also manages to stretch them out with a more sophisticated ... CD

A cheesy cover, but one of the greatest albums we've heard so far from this jazzy Japanese combo – a set that has them sounding even more dynamic than ever – but with a slightly different vibe! The instrumentation somehow feels even leaner, but still has all that very bracing feel from ... CD

Retro-styled funk from the mad Chris Joss – a producer and DJ who's been bubbling under on the French scene for years, but will no doubt burst big globally with this tasty set! Chris' music is a perfect match for the ESL label – as he's got a keen ear for a classic-styled groove, and ... CD

This great series just keeps on getting better and better – and we've got no problem saying that we really love this latest installment of Rewind! As with previous volumes, the focus here is on older tunes, redone by current artists of the global groove underground – served up in a ... CD

Righteous club from Joey Negro and his legendary Sunburst Band – a contemporary group, but one who sparkle with a really classic 70s feel! The tunes here are completely sublime – upbeat, soulful, and soaring with an energy that few other groups can match – hardly a too-forced ... CD

Totally wonderful work from Leron Thomas – an artist we're only discovering with this full length album, but one who we totally love already! Leron's got this hip style that's a mix of funky soul and darker, more sci fi-styled touches – some crispness on the beats, weird processing on ... LP, Vinyl record album

Remixed work from the Hip To The Jive album by Renegades Of Jazz – a mix of club styles and jazzy samples, done in a mode that takes us back to the earlier years of labels like Compost, Schema, or Irma Records – or maybe like the early work of US3! The remixes here follow suit in ... CD

An album we never thought we'd see from Francesco Gazzara – but one that still pleases us a heck of a lot! Gazzara's a name we've trusted for funk and other groovy styles from the Italian scene for almost 20 years now – but here, he moves away from his previous jazzy modes into a ... CD

DJ Clent bills himself as the "low end legend" in the notes to this record – and the sound here definitely lives up to its promise! Despite the Windy City reference in the title and the album's photos, the music here is hardly the usual Chicago house – and instead is a deeply ... CD
