Chymera - Wish EP // NRK
Chymera's (a.k.a. Brendan Gregoriy) debut three-track EP for NRK has dub techno and Detroit influences written all over it. For fans of uplifting melodies, catchy strings and deep basslines, this is a no-brainer.

Underworld - Oblivion With Bells // Underworldlive/Different
It's been five years since the duo's last studio effort, A Hundred Days Off, was released. The wait is now officially over and well worth it, that's all I have to say.

Tiger Stripes - Mad At Me EP // Get Physical
Berlin-based Get Physical stable has been kind of struggling with quality material recently ("Heater"? Why?), but the new EP from Swedish producer Mikael Nordgren (a.k.a. Tiger Stripes) doesn't disappoint.

Stimming - Funkworm EP // Diynamic
Another top notch release from Hamburg-based Diynamic imprint. Strongly recommended.

VA - Ralph Lawson's 2020 Vision // 20:20 Vision
Ralph Lawson's latest mix-CD showcases 20:20 Vision's recent releases, featuring tracks from Paul Woolford, Simon Baker, Burnski and others. The mix starts off with Lawson's edit of "Praise" by Art Of Tones which, in my opinion, is one of the best tracks the label has put out so far.

Radiohead - In Rainbows // Radiohead?
So, how much did you pay?

Also on heavy rotation:

Basteroid - Upsets Ducks LP // Areal
Fairmont - Flight Of The Albatross (Original / Basteroid Mixes) // Border Community
Le Noir - Eleny (Luke Dzierzek / Radio Slave Remixes) // Fling
Serafin & Roman Bruderer - Mountain004 // Mountain People
Mudd - Spielplatz (Quiet Village Deep Space Remix) // Rong Music
Kalim Shabazz - Peak Bomb (Phonique Remix) // Thugfucker
UBU - Pixels (Guy Gerber / Pete Heller Remixes) // Azuli
