Under the E.R.P. alias, Gerard Hanson has been making some of the finest intergalactic electro known to humankind since the tail end of the 1990s. His catalogue is meaty and some of his older, out-of-press records are now frustratingly hard to find - hence this tidy double-pack from Frustrated Funk. It includes all three tracks from Hanson's 2007 label debut, "Vox Automaton" - the body-popping brilliance of the title track, the Drexciya style underwater trip of "Nerve Play" and the deep electro lusciousness of "Parfume Persuasion" - as well as the trio of cuts originally released on the "Alsoran" from the same years. These are arguably even better, with the melodious, cinematic and futuristic title track, and wonderfully poignant "Irma" standing out. Exceptional.

Andres has always been out there doing his thing, but it feels like an age since he dropped "Andres III" on us. Finally, the Detroit hero is back with a splash on his regular home of Mahogani Music with a stunning follow-up that brings out the best of his many musical threads. There's Cubano style vibes on "Back In The Old Times" and hand-clapping gospel tinted house grooves on "Mighty Tribe", sweet and sexy downtempo jams like "I'll Wait 4 U" and mad heavy R&B beatdowns like "What's Ur Name Again" - that's just the first four tracks and when they hit like this, you know the rest of the record's just as strong and just as varied.

Starting as it means to go on, or at least to some extent, the return of Duster is both surprising and completely logical. We always knew the San Jose, California rockers had more to say, it's just taken them 20 years - two decades, or more time than you thought anyone would wait to release a new record - to confirm those suspicions. In many ways there's not been a whole lot of changes to their sound. People once described the band as space rock, albeit we prefer to add some focus to the grunge nuances that are clearly audible through open ears. Today we're presented with, in their own words, "tranq-rock", as subdued and suited to zoning out as it is inviting, hook-y and powerful. Sounds oxymoronic? Just check the combination of woozy, druggy "Copernicus Crater" and scuzz-filled, heads chugger "I'm Lost" and you'll get it.

Fans of Palace will likely have been supporting the solo guise of the band's ex-bassist, William Dorey, for some time. Currently on album number four, praise has been thrown at the unarguably talented outlier from various corners of the music press, despite the fact he remains elusive in terms of both live shows and anything close to the traditional publicity circus. A man doing things very much on his own terms. "I Didn't Know" is a two-track, or rather two-version single release taken from that last LP. A song that feels out of time - oozing 1960s trippy folk-esque trappings - and yet beyond any notions of trend or era. Packed with wonderful musicality, from string harmonies to acoustic guitar-set rhythms, it's as nice as it is accomplished and universally accessible.

Spooky Bizzle couldn't be more aptly named: "Haunted Joyride" is a restless dubstep cut with hammering drums and lithe synths all manner of unsettling samples and weird sound sources. It's one to amp a crowd, lock them in a loop and send them utterly wild. "General Riddim" completely flips the script with a swaggering reggae groove that is sun kissed and laid back, perfect for outdoor parties and Sunday BBQs. Add in the fact this comes on a tasty green 10" and you have a platter that really matters.

Nearly five years after the first seven-inch appeared, the seventh volume in J Rocc's on-point "Funky President Edits" series lands. As with the tracks contained on previous volumes, the showcased cuts have long been staples in his DJ sets and should be considered "tried and tested bombs". First up on side A is "Flight #2", a shuffling, ear-pleasing affair that combines jangling elements from a semi-acoustic Afro-Soul cut with borrowed chorus vocals and languid, laidback percussion. "Greddy Foot", on the other hand, is a low-slung funk bomb -a slightly dubbed-out revision of a James Brown original with additional vocal samples from other Godfather of Soul workouts.

There's not a lot of info about this one other than it's a "mysterious" re-edit that's been setting alight the DJ sets of some serious selectors on the European electronic disco underground. Whoever is behind it, and whatever the original source material may be - we've not got a clue - "Koy Jaye" is astonishingly good: a throbbing chunk of glassy-eyed, shirts-off Italo-disco/Bollywood fusion that layers exotic Indian vocals and snaking horn lines over druggy arpeggio style bass and a stomping drum machine rhythm. It's the kind of thing capable of sending dancefloors crazy at four in the morning, and there's always room in the record bag for jams like that.

NDATL is proud to announce the return of KemeticJust to NDATL after it's first 2010 hit "I Got Life" for our 25th release! We couldn't be more satisfied with result. "Here for It" starts of with the Original Househeads mix feat the lush vocals of Terrance Downs snappy drums & light guitar swing that immediately catches the listener. Then KemeticJust takes us into a chord laiden deep tech remix, which hypnotizing and soothing at the same time. The B Side see the Deeper Tech Rub which take us into territory unknown, sparse piano and vocals surrounded by an entangling bassline to take any dancefloor into the stratosphere! We hope you'll enjoy this as much as we do!
