Turbines has them sounding more like a band and less like a studio project, but around their psychedelic boy-girl harmonies, circling guitar lines and insidiously weird lyrics, there are still plenty of analogue gurgles and swoops and strange, dubwise production finesse

This is the sort of LP you play from start to finish while on a car journey in the sun on the way to a festival: it’ll gift you with positive feelings through its infinite groove.

While it’s hard not to view the five solo instrumentals as some of the strongest work here, overall Getting Closer is well worth some private investigating.

The results are like a retrospective charting 25 years of innovation in UK club music.

Set them around rhythmically experimental dance tracks (‘An English House’, ‘Community’) and you have intelligent evolution.

Bold, brilliant and beautiful.

An album that perfectly epitomises the new wave of house music--and may even be its peak.

With only a couple of uninspiring tracks, this is an ambitious game-changer that’ll leave you with a renewed optimism about the future of music.

On the whole, Cold Spring Fault Less Youth is a cerebral and arresting follow-up forged in harmonious invention.

Perhaps a marginally less absorbing spin than Nick Höppner’s addition to the series last summer, but judged on its own merits, Panorama 05 still constitutes a solid house mix.

It’s an accomplished record.

It’s another master stroke from Cosmin. Faultless.

Their darker second album leans more towards mid-80s baroque-pop.

Overall, the hybrids hold together: as their No. 1 single ‘Feel The Love’ has shown, this may well be an experiment with the mainstream that pays off big time.

It’s intense, ambitious and, in places, uneasy listening, but at the core of Overgrown lies unalloyed beauty.

Once you delve in you’re taken on a guided tour through the duo’s illustrious back catalogue in a quite majestic way.

Mastered by Berlin’s leading engineer Tobias Freud, the craftsmanship is simply untouchable, but the absence of any absolute stormers creates a slight shortfall.

The guest list on Amygdala proves his pull, boasting marquee names to help Koze construct a dense, intense and highly individual album of nuanced house.

While it could have been clipped of a couple of tracks, overall the devil is in the glitchy, Fever-ish new details--and Dave has rarely sounded better.

Nostalchic’= is the record you want to be listening to during the afterglow of good sex or a perfect ecstasy trip.

The finest moment is ‘Fantasie Mädchen’, a manic banger on which Gudrun Gut provides borderline psychotic vocals.

A charming, optimistic LP, delivered with a smile.

Producer Nigel Godrich has made of this a modern masterclass--and one that sets the bar for collaborations extremely high.

Not always easy, but definitely worth it.

He’s made a motherf***ing exciting record, that’s for sure.

The tomfoolery may alienate some listeners, but across all genres of music, few concept albums have been crafted with such a level of infectious invention.

Put intellectual conceits aside and Untogether’s dense, throbbing undercurrent, a soundtrack to some alternative dancefloor, proves alluring.

It’s sassy, saucy, sexy and attitudinous, and though you’ve heard a lot of it before, Lady hits the spot more often than it misses.
