Review: While he's not put out many re-edits of late, Luke Una has serious scalpel-job pedigree. Back in the 2000s, he and then DJ partner Justin Crawford released a series of largely disco-focused edit EPs on the hush-hush Electrik Souls series. Here he returns to the format with the first in a series of reworks focused on his popular, dusty-fingered E Soul Cultura project. He begins by teasing out and lightly toughening up a killer Caribbean cut from the 1990s, Ella Andall's 'My Spirit Is Music' - an insanely rare and hard to find number that the Sheffield-born DJ has naturally tweaked sensitively. Elsewhere, he emphasises the 'proto-house dub' feel of Slick Mission's early UK house number 'Time's Up', before going even dubbed-out and more percussive on Manu Dibango's lesser-known cover of Latin disco classic 'Jingo'.

Review: ***B-STOCK: Sleeve damaged but otherwise in excellent condition***
On Cartao Postal, Evinha offers a deep, evocative collection of tracks that manage to both mesmerize and transport. The Sao Paulo-born singer weaves in elements of MPB, samba, and bossa nova with a natural ease, the rhythms flowing like a gentle tide. Her voice feels at home in every corner of the record, whether exploring soulful melodies or swaying in more jazzy moments. The understated orchestration brings warmth without overwhelming, keeping Evinha's storytelling centre stage. This is a release where every note feels purposeful, quietly drawing you into its layered beauty.
