Review: J.J. Hermsen – Stil de tijd

De thema’s die in Stil De Tijd worden behandeld zijn divers, en de invalshoeken erop ook – dat maakt het een leuk boek. Er zijn wel een boel puntjes die het geheel lastig verteerbaar maken voor mij en daardoor is het een “mixed bag” met een paar goede en een flink aantal slechte punten. Eerst […]

Class of 88

Class of 88 was originally published by Virgin in 1998 and sold thousands of units. Since then second-hand copies have been selling for up to £135 on E-Bay and £229 on Amazon.

One of the nice things about it is that the tracks have been remastered and sound super clear and crisp. According to one reviewer even […]

Todd Osborne – Bout ready to Jak Remixes

This record just came in… Todd Osborne is a rising talent from the Detroit area. Just celebrated his birthday party in a local neighborhood bar and now back on Spectral Sounds, the little brother of the ‘white trash’ Ghostly Intl label of Sammy Valenti. The twelve inch includes remixes by Shake aka Anthony Shakir (Frictional), […]
