Crazy Itch Radio
CD
£10.99
‘Crazy Itch Radio' certainly scratches the spot, with Simon Ratcliffe and Felix Buxton swerving from all-out drama on the operatic intro straight into the jet-packed kaleidoscopic pop of the future hit single ‘Hush Boy' which features live collaborator Vula Malinga, last heard on ‘Oh My Gosh'. Rammed up next, ‘Take Me Back To Your House' is a sexy, energetic moment of what they call ‘banjo house' - the only new tune they've been playing on their current European tour. There's also Balkan folk woven into vocals from Swedish pop sensation Robyn on ‘Hey U', a hyper grime tune cussing vain boys from East London's Lady Marga, titled ‘Run 4 Cover', and ‘Lights Go Down', a Wil Malone-scored beauty with legendary British singer Linda Lewis.
‘Crazy Itch Radio' is available on specially packaged CD featuring a super-swish lenticular cover and vinyl.
Kruder & Dorfmeister
K & D SESSIONS
CD
£15.99
Viennese beatsmiths Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister prove themselves to be DJs with a difference on this stellar double-disc set. Instead of simply stringing together favourite tunes of the moment, K&D assemble something much more permanent and notable by gathering their own remixes for both well-known artists (Depeche Mode, Bone Thugs 'N Harmony, RoniSize, Bomb The Bass) and European cult acts (Rainer Trnby Trio, Count Basic, Knowtoryous, Sofa Surfers, Mama Oliver). The unifying thread can be called the K&D sound--a playfully off-beat and bass-heavy funk so singular that it instantly assimilates any piece of music into the K&D canon.
The K&Dsound is a great equaliser, elevating all music to a commonplateau of funked-up metagroove. Kruder & Dorfmeister see to it that vocal drum-and-bass, shady dub, frazzled big-beat,bouncy hip-hop, and down-tempo slink alike are pumped up with anabolic breakbeats, sizzling jazz breaks, and serpentinebasslines. Already indispensable as a compact collection ofK&D's rarest mixes, K&D SESSIONS goes one further, giving it up for two breathless hours and redefining the state of the art of trip-hop in the image of its Austrian saviours.

Mr Scruff
Big Chill Classics
CD
£12.99
The Big Chill has quickly become something of an institution for music fans across the UK and love it or hate it, there's no denying its influence. Whether you're an ageing hippy or a young thrill seeker the festival has welcomed with open arms people simply looking to have a good time and get along, and of course the music has supported this. One of the festivals best known veterans is of course Manchester doodler and tea drinker Mr. Scruff, so it's no surprise that those relaxed folks over at Big Chill HQ have asked the man to put together a compilation of ‘classics' documenting the ten years he's been playing at the festival. Subtitled ‘Big Up Your Tent' and spanning two jam packed cds, the tracks picked are not really dancefloor friendly, rather they're the soundtrack to your Sunday morning, a bottle of elderflower cordial and a copy of the Guardian, a seat in the shade and a trendy branded sun-hat. Both cds are of course filled with rarities old and new and there are plenty of tracks here I've never heard of before. We've got Nobozaku Takemura, Treva Whateva, Homelife, Fingathing, D'Angelo and Rick James peppered amongst classic soul, hiphop, blues, prog and rock ‘n roll. It's a varied journey but a hugely enjoyable one - Happy campers!
