Leisure Recordings 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: The Leisure Allstars make a triumphant return with the second single from their debut album with a collaboration featuring New York hip-hop crew The Good People. "A Lot To Say" is a slice of golden era, jazz-tinged hip-hop. The piano stabs, head nod beats and rolling bassline give Emskee and The Saint the perfect backing for their rhymes, reminiscing about the good old days of hip-hop when bling was just a platinum-encrusted glint in the young P Diddy's eye.

Review: Tuff Love is the new project from DJ Hoop, orchestrator of the debut release from Bristol's newest record label. Latin America is the destination and Tuff Love blend samba horn stabs with dusty beats to create a fresh addition the cinematic side of hiphop that might be more often associated with labels such as Ninja Tune and Grand Central. Remix duties are undertaken firstly by fellow label mates Mr Benn and Drake Scorpio, whose Jazzment Mix drags it back up to the Caribbean for a soca bouncefest before professional beardsman and Tummy Touch label boss Tim 'love' Lee gets his lothario hands on it and take it off the rails and into uncharted leftfield territory, with added elephant noises.
