   double pack of house/techno deepness on a new German label
3. Mr Scruff – Ninja Tuna LP
   a welcome return from Stockport’s finest
4. The Revenge in general!
   running thing on the edits front – Hot Chocolate was good, their ‘Heavy love Affair’ is the bomb!
5. Unknown – Try To Find Me vol 1 (Golf Channel)
   Chic get a re-rub from another great edits label
6. Jazzanova – Let Me Show Ya (Henrik Schwarz remix) (Verve)

    the best of the recent Idjuts 12s and some brand new reworks
11. Vitesse Nayway – Edits 12” (Box Office)
    more from the Idjuts, making Phil Collins almost acceptable but it’s all about the soul chugger on the flip
12. Dr Dunks – Re-imagined in Alphabet City (Whatever We Want)
    two ace edits – one slow cosmic vibe-up and a slow house bomb
13. Linkwood – Whats up with the underground (Firecracker)
    another back cat re-issue from the jazz house dons – how’d I miss this first time?
14. Dixon, Ame & Henrik Schwarz – DPOMB (Innervisions)
    massive wild pitch bomb from the German house mafia

    cosmic Balearic rock chugger
18. Laughing Light Of Plenty – The Rose (Whatever We Want)
    midtempo house with a different vocal – very promising debut
19. Andy Ash – Carnival De L’Sprit 2x12” (Stilllove4music 2x12”)
    solid double pack of latin house and bootleg grooves
20. Lil Louis & The World – I Called U (Epic)
