Somebody Told Me (RSS Clandestine dub) (6:03)
Baz Bradley - "Acid Love Bath" (7:30)
Secret Soul Society - "When The Night" (4:47)
What I Am - "Work Dat" (CC edit) (7:20)
Review: You can always count on Magic Wand to bring a classy edge to any edit they press, and their latest batch of re-rubs is no exception. There's a downtempo slink and Balearic haze to the tracks on offer here, leading in with RSS' Clandestine Dub' of 'Somebody Told Me' before Baz Bradley takes over with the piano-powerd paean to tripping, 'Acid Love Bath'. Secret Soul Society slip into something more comfortable as they sample Whitney Houston for 'When The Night' and then the CC edit of What I Am does some magic with an eternal Wham! banger.

Paprika Soul - "Come With Me" (Bossa mix) (5:00)
Soft Sugar - "Metro" (Funk mix) (7:21)
Soft Sugar - "Swampin" (alternate mix) (6:40)
Review: Having started with the widely celebrated Special Touch album Garden Of Life and following up via The Soundstealers and Amazonia, the Heels & Souls label now cruise back in for round three with Paprika Soul and Soft Sugar and more of that sunkissed goodness we need in these winter months. The three versions of Paprika Soul's 'Come With Me' all offer the kind of slow and sensual satisfaction you need when traversing the balmy waters of Balearic, from the slow and steady 'Sea Breeze' version to the laid back funk of 'The Chill'. Soft Sugar's 'Metro' is a peppier house track with nifty organ stabs and a subtle breakbeat roll, while 'Swampin' has a slower, off-kilter warm-up vibe to die for.

Onironauta (6:52)
Grace In Space (5:44)
Mediterranean Dreams (6:41)
Becalmed (5:59)
Review: International Feel kicks off what is presumably a new series given its title, Mediterranean Dreams - Part 1. For it, they turn to Perugia synth obsessive, underground mainstay and fine producer Feel Fly for four tracks of breezy and sunny disco-house chuggers. 'Onironauta' brings retro Italo chords and nice chunky drums, 'Grace In Space' is a leggy cosmic wonder with far-sighted chords and muted acid magic, then 'Mediterranean Dreams' is pure 80s dream house bliss. 'Becalmed' is the most rough edged and analogue house jack track of the lot.

1739 (4:56)
1739 (Francis Inferno Orchestra 3rd Grade Recorder Class) (5:54)
1739 (Fantastic Man remix) (5:12)
Review: Next up on Amsterdam's Kalahari Oyster Cult is Brent Lewis, an percussionist and drummer that has collaborated with many famous artists throughout his career. His music takes ancestral rhythms from all over the world and combines them for a unique world beat. His track '1739' which is taken from 1987's Drumsex LP receives a modern reshape by Francis Inferno Orchestra that accentuates all the entrancing qualities of the original. On the other side, fellow Aussie Fantastic Man gets onboard for another psychedelic rework which takes the track into balearic house territory.

Mezcal Dream (feat Amanda Zamolo) (4:41)
Review: New reissue of Morcheeba's ninth album; though far from their most defining LP, 'Blaze Away' captures Skye Edwards and co. at a lesser-recognised career highlight, after the departure of co-producer Paul Godfrey. A tripped- and dubbed-out odyssey and ode to positivity, with guest features from Roots Manuva and Amanda Zamolo, and supersoaked in delay and psychey note progressions - you can be sure you won't be disappointed by this latter-day gem from the trip hop pioneers.

Review: This reissued LP from 1984 follows Strangelove's previous issue of Sjunne Ferger's early singles and soundtrack work on Children's Mind. Restored and fully remastered from the original tapes, it comes with new liner notes and photography. A sonic snapshot of Scandinavia's early '80s electronic/progressive movements, Mindgames is a singular album with a Balearic outcome that showcases a lifetime of musical and personal exploration by the Orebro native. As a child jazz drummer prodigy, arts venue operator, music teacher and Aikido practitioner, a bewildering array of personal and creative influences are channeled into Ferger's only long player.

Review: When he's not playing guitar in the likes of Oasis and Ride, Andy Bell likes to explore electronic pastures as GLOK. Every year since 2019 he's released a new album, and here's the third, Pattern Recognition. His approach is assured and highly developed, taking on a kosmische tone that nods to Cluster et al thanks to the guitar work threaded in between the synth lines. It's warm and undulating, and oh so easy on the ears - the sound of a veteran musician stretching their legs and enjoying every minute of it. Watch out for album highlight 'Process', featuring the dulcet tones of Shamon Cassette delivering a laconic line in poetry over Bell's chiming arpeggios.

Review: Under the GLOK guise, Sometime Beady Eye and Oasis guitarist Andy Bell has long been interested in blurring the boundaries between raucous, riff-sporting indie music, experimental electronica and the kind of chugging, danceable musical trips that were once the speciality of the late, great Andrew Weatherall. Bell further explores this ear-pleasing, mind-altering blueprint on sophomore GLOK album Pattern Recognition, wrapping psychedelic, effects-laden guitar solos, riffs and motifs around lo-fi machine drums, post-punk bass, ghostly electronics, intergalactic synthesizer melodies and occasional guest vocals. The results are undeniably enjoyable, with highlights including the 8-bit, slo-mo shuffle of 'Process' (featuring the echo-laden spoken word vocals and Shamon Cassette), the effects-heavy shoegaze brilliance of 'Kingtsugi' and the slow-build sci-fi throb of 'Invocation'.

Need You (7:06)
Need You (Don Carlos In Paradise remix) (9:02)
Need You (LTJ Xperience remix) (7:30)
Need You (Freddy dub mix) (8:43)
Review: This coming together of two very different legends makes for a perfect soundtrack to your summer sessions., Dj Fede makes thekbeats and the one and only Chicago house vocalist Robert Owens is on the mix. He provides his sultry, smoky tones to 'Need You' which is a dreamy Italo deep house classic that will have you cuddling the nearest person to you on the dance floor. Fellow Italian house legend Don Carlos steps up with his more bumping In Paradise remix and laces in some soft acid then and LTJ Xperience remix brings even more soul before the final Freddy dub.
