THE NEXTMEN
'5 - THE BEST OF FAT CITY'
FAT CITY

THE NEXTMEN are one of the UK's leading hip hop outfits. Remember their acclaimed debut 'Amongst the Madness' released on 75 ARK in 2000. Now they return with '5', a celebration of five years of FAT CITY RECORDINGS mixed and blended by THE NEXTMEN. The 19 tracks include both the most in-demand exclusives and favourite moments from the Fat City Recordings back catalogue alongside unmissable anthems from the renowned club night 'Friends & Family'. There are also some Nextmen tracks in new forms with accapellas from their 'Amongst The Madness' to spice up the mix. The artists featured in the mix include GRAND CENTRAL's beat supremo AIM, MARTIN BREW, CUTTY RANKS, DEADBEATS, J LIVE, PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS and more …

MINOTAUR SHOCK
'RINSE'
MELODIC

For the uninitiated, MINOTAUR SHOCK is the solo project of 26 year old Bristolian DAVID EDWARDS. His debut album 'Chiff Chaffs and Willow Warblers' received exceptional critical acclaim in 2001. 'Rinse' compiles the much sought after first two vinyl-only EPs with extra tracks, and shows just how accomplished David Edwards is. From the space-age scrapes of 'Let Me Out' to one of the best pieces of ambient music anywhere 'Albert Park Music' to the anthemic 'Motoring Britain' it was alway inevitable that this music would have to be released in CD format for the masses. Sounds like a combination of APHEX, SQUAREPUSHER, PREFUSE 73, BOARDS OF CANADA and FOUR TET.

STASIS
'PAST MOVEMENTS'
PEACEFROG

STEVE PICKTON aka STASIS is well known to fans of early UK electronica, he was among the early pioneers of the sound that included BLACK DOG, APHEX TWIN, KIRK DEGIORGIO, B12 and PLAID. 'Past Movements' is a compilation of rare classics (the majority of these 12"s are long deleted) together with unreleased material from the early nineties. The whole album contains the spirit of classic Detroit techno, while retaining Steve's unique and much forgotten sound, which conjures up the heady times of WARP's groundbreaking 'Artificial Intelligence' compilation. Featuring beautiful and delicate heartfelt strings mixed with morphed disco electronic elegance, these tracks are timeless classics that deserve to be heard by a wider audience.
