Various Artists - Prime Numbers
Although less than a year old Prime Numbers, the label run by Manchester based DJ Trus’ Me, have carved themselves a reputation as a purveyors of some seriously deep and soulful music. This double pack of one mixed and one unmixed CD of the same songs, serves as a snapshot of the label, and the...
Various Artists - Dust Till Dawn 10 Years Of Drop Music
Funky house. What a horrible thought. But some house music has to be funky right? Right, and that’s where Drop Music come in. The English label run by the Inland Knights crew have been ploughing a furrow of particularly British house, similar to Glasgow’s Deep Freeze Recordings, for ten years n...
