COLLATE Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Astrolife gathers together a cast of classy house warriors who know how to take things deep in style. Nigel Hayes opens the 12" up with an iconic sample framed by smoky pads and chunky rhythms. Collate & Balaur bring something a little more dubby, and dare we say it's infected with a little Goa-ready hypnosis. M&M get remixed by DJ Rocca for the high-pressure, Colonel Abrams-flavoured "Vibe" and Vincent Inc tackles a classic from Duke and creates a freaked-out exotic fever dream of a version for the adventurous souls out there. It's the perfect finishing touch to a record that balances poppy appeal with electronic weirdness in a fresh and flamboyant way.
