#DJ HYPE PRESENTS DRUM AND BASS ESSENTIALS RARLAB FULL#
On the A you'll find 'Fug', a low-slung, bassline-driven party full of killer drum breaks, righteous horn solos and, and conscious lyrics that call for global action against inequality (little, it seems, has changed politically since). For this reissue 7', Mr Bongo has dipped into two of those albums - 1973's Second Time Around and 74's Promised Heights - and dug out two of the best-loved, most-sampled cuts. Review: In the early '70s, Cymande made a trio of killer albums that remain stone cold classics to this day. It's a poignant note of remembrance for two gifted musicians who shone their light into the world. 'That Will Be That' is an effervescent boogie jam with rich synths that interplay beautifully with Whitren's stunning vocal, while 'This Time' takes a starkly opposite approach with just the most delicate of keys lingering behind Whitren's powerful, echoing vocal. Sadly Whitren and Cartwright passed away two years ago, and this 7' of previously CD/digital-only material materialises in tribute to these wonderfully talented souls. Review: Emotional Rescue previously dived into the plush, soulful and verdant sound of Jaki Whitren and John Cartwright with the reissue of their essential International Times album back in 2013. For this project, Dimitri was entrusted with the original studio masters so alongside the much loved essentials remastered here are remixes and previously unreleased instrumentals. Review: This 20-track album features three brand new remixes of highly revered production duo Chic, by Grammy-award nominated producer Dimitri From Paris. The same could be said for Lynch's brilliant cover of The Nite-Liters' funk classic 'K-Jee', which adds a little South American sunshine to the familiar grooves and celebrated horn lines. Having been re-mastered from the original master tapes, A-side 'African Bump' - a jazzy, sun-soaked affair notable for its fantastic use of wah-wah guitar, Blaxploitation grooves and high-register horn solos - sounds better than ever before. Both tracks were recorded in the early 1970s and have become sought-after items amongst the Afro-Tropical collecting community. Review: For their latest release, Matasuna Records has put away their re-editing scalpel and instead decided to serve up two obscure old gems by Peru-based Argentine artist Enrique Lynch. Rich in rasping horns, wild organ lines and gnarly guitar riffs, it's just crying out to be played loud over a heavy soundsystem. The second 12' offers another chance to own 'Dreaming A Dream (Goes Dancin')' and the bouncy disco-funk epic that is 'Dancin' (Disco mix)'.

That sublime chunk of disco-funk perfection is followed by the buzzing horns, walking bass and high-register vocals of 'Galaxy of Love' and the punchy disco stomp of 'I'm Gonna Love You Forever', where relentless horns and spacey synth flourishes do their best to whip listeners into a frenzy. It draws together a quintet of the group's most potent and essential moments, beginning with the soaring mid-tempo brilliance of 'Say A Prayer For Two'. Review: If you dig disco but have yet to explore the bulging back catalogue of De-Lite Records stalwarts Crown Heights Affair, this double-pack could be exactly what you need. This expanded edition not only includes previously CD-only tracks, but also an unheard gem: the melancholic, Vibraphone and flute-laden lament, 'Dialogo'. It remains a superb set, with Pearson flitting between bluesy soul-jazz, bossa-nova-tinged Latin jazz breeziness, groovy post-bop workouts, samba-soaked soundscapes and breathtaking beautiful cinematic jazz (see the inspired 'Theme From Rosemary's Baby'). It's this posthumous set - made up entirely of rediscovered recordings made between 1968 and '70 - that here gets the deluxe reissue treatment.
