![[ MM 148 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_mm-148.jpg)
I am a fan of everything Sam Geiser has done with Music Man, and I think this is the best thing he’s done to date. So simple but insistently brilliant. - Jeff Mills – The Drummer [Purpose Maker]
![[ PM-022 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_pm-022.jpg)
More Mills(art) loveliness. - Trish Van Eynde – Subject Belgium [Subject Detroit]
![[ SUB-033 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_sub-033.jpg)
Fantastic funkiness, straight forward Subject Detroit music. Trish Van Eynde is on fire. - Silent Servant/Santiago Salazar – La Noche/La Minoria [Historia y Violencia]
![[ H&V 002 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_hyv-002.jpg)

5 novelties (* all in promo status.)
- Jolka – The Jolka Experience [Sect] / Davor O. – Transitional Objects Remixes [Matrix]
![[ Matrix 20 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_matrix-20.jpg)
10/10 (The Jolka Experience). No need to say more… "Transitional Objects Remixes" is a simply awesome package of mixes. This is the best thing Matrix has done in a while. - Traxx – Faith [Nation]
![[ NAT-007 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_nat-007.jpg)
Classic, great forward thinking house music. Jack your body !! - (A guy from D) – (A track on A-Side) [(An UK label)]
(I can’t tell you any details yet……) That D guy returns to an UK quality techno label with sweet, sweet techno stuff. This is what Detroit techno soul is all about. - Rennie Foster – Songs For Homeless Housers [Greta Cottage Workshops]
![[ GCW 003 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_gcw-003.jpg)

![[ ESR-001 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_esr-001.jpg)
Reminiscent of B12’s work, great melodic stabby winner on new Crawley-based label to definitely look out for.
