ED BANGER VS RAM RECORDS
The clash of label heads. Which one will win your party persuasion?
Isotope - J's Bee - Far Out Recordings
A two-track LP teaser from Jap jazzers J's Bee. A sweet fusion of minimal electronics and live instrumentation. Early Tortoise meets ECM.

Dopest & The Raddest - Jurassik - Menu Music
Terry Hooligan and Jay Cunning's well-respected label is back and firing on all cylinders, and following 'Round The Globe' by Lady Waks comes this by Londoner Jurassik. Mashing up elements of breakbeat garage and future jungle vibes on the title track, with tasty old hardcore flourishes, Jurassik demonstrates how his productions have come on in leaps and bounds in recent times. DJ tool 'State Of Mind', meanwhile, utilises a great "Give me a motherfuckin' breakbeat!" female vocal sample.

Secret Society - Phil Taylor - Fraction Records
The 'Original' mix is just ok, but doesn't get stuck into any of its multiple themes with enough conviction. The 'Subimpact Mix' goes straight for 'hard' and '303', bettering the 'Original'.

FM BXL EP - Arbeid Adelt!/Bene Gesserit - Walhalla
An EP of highly sought-after minimal/coldwave gems is set to get a timely release for this year's Record Store Day festivities. From the more eccentric beginnings of Benelux's pre-MIDI, minimal-wave sound, both bands have been eeking out some of the most brilliantly skewed, primitive electronic music - the best of it (focussing on the early years) is compiled in this essential, soon to be very collectable, 7-inch.
