Electronic-jazz pioneer Mark de Clive-Lowe returns with the second installment of his Midnight Snacks EP series.Vol.2 kicks off with two dedications: “Crush Velvet”, a break-heavy, broken beat jam full of twists and turns, dedicated to Phlash – Mark’s mentor and dear friend, the late great Phil Asher. “Sorceress” is dedicated to the legend Chick Corea, a reworking of his Return to Forever classic by the same name. Featuring Mark’s lithe rhodes and piano lines, it’s perfect for the jazz-minded dancefloor.Side B kicks off with the downtempo head-nod of “Float into ETHer” before taking things back up-tempo again with “Joyful Resistance Part II” – a latin jazz-flavored 3/4-time broken beat samba keeping our spirits high in these unpredictable times. An EP packed full of future classics from one of the masters of the game."Way before jazz hybridity became a worldwide phenomenon, de Clive-Lowe was busy designing its blueprint.” - Jazziz

CUT COPY COMPILATION FOCUSING ON THEIR BACKYARD. Rewind 10 years before this compilation and we were treated to the debut album from a relatively unknown dance duo that helped shape a new generation. Their debut album, Bright Like Neon, gave us one of the earliest glimpses of what was going on down under. Warm synths, fantastic melodies, essentially a third wave of the more discofied French sound. Fast forward to 2014, Cut Copy has become hugely successful and put a few more albums under their belts and they've turned their focus on where things started for them. 'Oceans Apart' put the spotlight on the up and coming Melbourne scene that has since become one of the most looked to in the world of dance not dance music. Broken into two parts on vinyl, the first sampler is a much more subtle introduction with some Lab favorites showing up. Part two gives us another diverse selection starting things off with Fantastic Man's 'Robotic Temptation', a soundtracky vibe that could have been pulled from a cinemax Macgyver parody (not a dis). Next up is Turkish Prison's 'Overboard' that offers a much more 'Cut Copy' sound. Bell Towers' 'After Party at Jackson's House' is menacing slo-mo cut. NoZu's 'Raw Vis Vision' is a stand out, sounding something like what I would imagine Konk to make if they were still making music
