Wanna Do - Move D - Curle Recordings
Originally penned to be given away with the 50th edition of German magazine Groove, Curle has nabbed it, along with additional track 'Nautique', and released it. Both tracks are pretty ace, to be fair.

Set You Free - Distance - Chestplate
A clever move here by Chestplate boss, Distance, for this new single of his own productions. The A-side is the prime-time banger, with cheese-grater riffs and a drizzle of moody vocals from New Zealand's Stepa. However, it's really all about 'Gorilla Force' on the flip. It's a ridiculous tune, writhing in syncopation, deadly bass weight and haunting synths that borrow niftily from Burial's sound palette, all combining to produce a beastly piece of music. Tip!

Warm Spell - Sinkane - DFA Records
Apart from being the best sleeve design we've seen in a while, it's also one of the best remixes, as Larry Gus (Panagiotis Melidis to his friends) goes to work on Sinkane's tropical sunset-inspired original. Playing with the original samples in a totally different manner, he turns 'Warm Spell' into an edit of an original, and then remixes it. Make sense? Sure does, if you check the whole seven-and-a-half tribal minutes.

Micro Mega (Remixes) - Strip Steve - BNR
A release featuring this many remixes runs the risk of being a mixed bag, and that's the case here. Frenchman Théo Pozoga is Strip Steve and all these re-rubs are versions of tunes taken from his debut album 'Micro Mega'. The Funk D'Void version of top single 'Stomp' works really well, as does the Jimmy Edgar remix of 'One Thing'. It's also good to have The Glimmers back with their take on 'Radiocheck'.
