From what has been a year of representing the Afrodeep sound, Bomba Records brings more to the table of house with Mvimbeni (lom’Africa) which is a call to all Africans to remain true to their being African. A collection of talented producers to make the call even louder and reach a wider audience has brought the talents of label mate Morra DeRey whose mix features the touch up of first lady of Jazz House Paris Cesvette; Aero Manyelo who is ever so the energetic provider adds herbs to his mix. To entice the ears, Mvimbeni also fetaures the talented production skills of Nkokhi, Sculptured Music, Dj Hypnosis, Clement and Cocosoul.

Out of Japan comes this lovely compilation of productions by Yasushi Ide that includes his classic releases in extended versions such as “A certain peace” featuring Monday Michiru (Joe Claussell Main Vocal), “Plein soleil” featuringClementine (MAW Remix), “Sweet dream” featuring Byron Stingly (Blaze Shrine Vocal) or “Spirit of drums” featuring Mutabaruka (SUMO Afrobunce Remix) as well as previously unreleased versions and a brand new Mr. V remix of “Soul gallactic” which features Osunlade.
FFF sees the pair combine their wealth of dancefloor knowledge, and create a devilishly groovy tech house cut.
Tight beats and throbbing bass are overlaid with organ riff and filtered vocal sampler, to produce a killer cut.
On the remix is none other than Seattle’s Pezzner. The DJ favorite and Freerange regular is set once again to please all, with his fantastic rework. Turning the original on its head, Pezzner adds his own key and xylophone melody, to create a wonderfully hypnotic and beautiful revision. The man is a genius.
Rounding out the release, Tomoki drops his own Basement Remix. Deep and ever so warm, it plays on classic beats, and caressing synths, with the filtered vocal sample working away throughout. Excellent!
Taken from the suprise album of the year Same Monkeys, Different Zoo released in summer 2010 on Moodmusic , we have the standout vocal track Speak Your Mind as a remix pack on offer. –
A tribute to a special Lady, 124 bpm beats with melodic chords and soulful vocals, a taste of classic House from the DJN Project featuring Freeway.
