D Numbers - New-Age Wondertwinism [Mesa]

Subtle, yet striking piece of brain food. I’m up to three listens so far and each time I’ve noticed a little detail that wasn’t there the first time.

Eric Lau feat. Rahel - Everytime [Kilawatt Music]
Not exactly a ground-breaker, but it works on me as it’s perfect for “getting your spring on”. Plus, I’ve had a soft spot for Rahel ever since I heard this.

Album, One of Many, should have been out last month, but I can’t seem to find it in any of the usual places(?)

Crimea X - Dream Is Gone [Hell Yeah]
Winner of today’s “I can’t get this tune out of my head” award. I know next to nothing about these guys, this looks like a good place to start righting that particular wrong.

DJ Nu Mark feat. J-Live, M3 & Erica Dee - Tonight [Hot Plate]

Lucas Arruda - Batuque [Favorite] *Brasil, fusion, up-tempo.
Spring has sprung. This release proves it.

“Batuque” Sounds a bit like Stevie (of the “songs in the key of life” era), sped up and on Cachaça. Methinks that Lucas is a fan, as he also has a Stevie tribute on his soundcloud.

Sambadi LP out now.

Colman Brothers - She Who Dares (Scrimshire Remix) [Wah Wah 45s] *Nu jazz, fusion, mid-tempo.
Another stand out colman brothers remix (to accompany this one by Tall Black Guy). Both are available on Colman Brothers remixed LP. If I haven’t bought this by the end on the month then I might as well just give up on myself.

Charlie Parker - Repetition (Mark de Clive-Lowe Remix) *Nu jazz, electronica.
MdCL maintains form. Love the last 90 seconds of this, wonder what Bird would make of it.
Not sure if it’ll get an official release … however, *this* has been out for ages and I still haven’t picked it up. Note to myself: What is your problem?
