A while back I got my hands on the new Grooveman Spot album and one of the first tracks that caught my attention was “Affection” featuring Ahu. She was so kind to inform me that the “Change Situations” single had just gone online for sale. Check out the flipside with my man Erik Rico, cuz he makes it funky! The full album is going to drop in a few on Planetgroove. Get that digital dope via iTunes!

My oh my, what a year this is promising to be. So many good releases when it comes to Electronic Beats. We have the new Mr. Dibiase“Cakeology” release on Fat City and what a selection of goodness this is. A few joints on here are nothing less than amazing! “Brazilian Lady” is just mind-boggling and even comes close to a Pete Rock production in my book. A few of you might have snagged this from his Myspace already, but it’s official now. Another favourite of mine is “Be Fly” which is soothing and eases ones mind. All in all a quality EP with some heavy hitters on it if you ask me. You can BUY the vinyl at our friends at Rushhour so you’d better order while supllies last.

Deluge and me just came back from Joya Mooi’s album pre-listening party at MC. Late as usual we missed the whole shebang, but still got to chill with Full Crate, Mar, SirOJ, Joya, Yoji and miss Mountainwoodfor a minute. I had heard an early leak of “When I Take A Step Back” (produced by Presto) and was semi impressed at the time. After having heard the rest of the album I can truly say this…I’m a fan of miss Mooi! Not because she has the looks, not because she’s a nice person, but because I truly admire the way she comes across as an artist.
One of my favorites is the duet with Mar called “My Day”. Her debut album “Hard Melk” is a soundtrack for the new theater play BH and features almost every single Dutch producer you’d want on your album. Just to name a few: SirOJ, Presto, Hayzee, Wan, Dub Spensa and Crate who kinda put everything together musically. You can check out the entire album over HERE and view her video after the jump. Hurry up and be amazed…

This is the second time KrystalKlear has come to my attention and I decided to let ya’ll in on a little secret. This mystery artist from Belize is going to be releasing his debut release in April on All City Records. Massive synth waves flood the ears and take you back to the Boogie. It’s artists like Dam-Funk that pop to mind when hearing this typical early-’80s boogielicious funkiness. Klear’s productions are on that Neo Boogie tip that only few have managed to produce on a level to my liking so far. Keep your eyes and ears open for more of that f0nk!
