Back catalogue: All genres

Review: Having been released digitally earlier this year, Jacques Greene's masterful return to Luckyme is granted the vinyl issue the cover art deserves. Listening to this three track EP, it's all too easy to see how far the Montreal based Greene has developed as a producer since he broke through back in 2010 with The Look EP for the Scottish label. If you've been paying close attention to Greene's production work and general direction since then (starting his own Vase label) you'll understand the Canadian is slowly maturing into a producer in the traditional sense, increasingly happy to step behind the buttons and work an arrangement around a vocalist. Such is the case on the title track to On Your Side which features the tremulous vocal tones of How To Dress Well's Tom Krell and "Faithful" which pairs a bubbling acid flecked broken house shuffle with Oliver Day Soul's gospel style delivery. Final track "Quicksand" demonstrates Greene has lost none of his talent for snaking vocal edits and oven warm melodic leads.

Review: Luckyme finally deliver Jacques Greene's debut EP on vinyl after pressing issues, and it's quite the looker, with artwork done in part by the mysterious Montreal wonderkid really impressing in full twelve inch glory! Greene is not shy in wearing his unabashed love of R&B on his sleeve, but this EP's roots are firmly in houseU deep Chicago hooks, acid synths and post-garage beats all abound here. Title tune "The Look" is the glossiest of this set - chopping and subtly pitch-shifting vocal lines into something truly anthemic, while basslines and synths pop and gurgle over a clap-based drum track. "Good Morning" goes deep into Detroitisms, fully loaded with tweaked enveloping pads, jacked-up beats and just the right amount of piano. On a future-funky tip, "Holdin' On" layers snapping percussion and garage-patterned beats on top of subtle vocal chops and more epic pads, while the slower "Tell Me" sports a hypnotic arpeggio that'll burrow its way into your cerebellum after just a few minutes listening.

Review: Jacques Greene records are as interesting as they are innovative and for this latest essential long player he joins forces with Joel Ford, Satomimagae (RVNG) and Leanna Macomber. It finds the Montreal produce conjuring up floaty breakbeats and lashing of loose, free flowing synths to maker for an idealised club sounds that will be impossible for dancers to ignore. There is fresh spirit in these tunes as well as sedate shoegaze sounds, shimmering pads and super sweet grooves to make any party that bit more special.

Review: Deliciously deep breakbeat bliss from Jacques Green, 'Relay' first handed us the baton back at the start of the year and has been on heavy rotation ever since. Now it returns for a second lap of the track with this exceptional reboot from man of the moment Skee Mask. Bending heads a well as dancefloors, his remix delves deep into the cosmos as the track progresses. What begins as deep and spacious suddenly plunges into multi-dimensional fractured chaos. Let's do another lap.

Review: Now a firm fixture in the LuckyMe fam, Montreal's Jacques Greene delivers what could be his biggest cut to date. Ticking every box from UKG to tech by way of soul, there's a silkiness and timeless appeal to the vocals, synths and funk-coded broken drum arrangement that appeals to all DJs from all corners. Meanwhile on the B we have an extended version of "You Can't Deny". Resplendent in its processed R&B vocal hookery and soft padded groove, it's yet another reminder why Jacques resonates with all corners and genres of the globe right now

Review: Back on LuckyMe for another round of R&B tinged beats from the next dimension, at this point Montreal's Jacques Greene is certainly a dab hand at matching forward-thinking production with accessible pop tropes. "No Excuse" centres on a heartfelt vocal hook, but all around it fall chunky found sound beats while winsome synths warble overhead. "Feel What" places its own vocal sample in a more distant reverb chamber, letting the snap of the broken beat drums take to the fore of the mix. "Night Tracking" is the more obviously club ready cut with its discernible house thrust, but even then the bewitching melodies spell out a more reflective purpose to this EP.
