Hello Kitty
Kitty-Yo records sent me a whole host of quality material straight outa Berlin.
Monosylabikk is the moniker of Filip Kaniecki, a Polish artist who produces abstract Hip Hop with samples from Polish Jazz records. 'Rocks', his new album is a continuation of this cut-up sound with instrumental tracks fusing filmic soundscapes, snatched vocal samples and chopped beats plus vocal tunes with collaborators Bee and MC Coherent Motion.
The whole album reminds me of 'Private Press' era DJ Shadow. Fans of Shadow and The Avalanches should definitely check this. Highly Recommended.

'Particles' is the new album from Jens Doring aka E:gum , Jerry Lusion and Hp.stonji. His discography includes releases for labels such as Digital, Skam, Klein and Phantomnoise among others. However it is under the name E.stonji that this electronic solo project is released.
The tracks contained within combine breakbeats with idm structures and ambient grooves to create beguiling abstract Electronica.

Finally some more straight-up dancefloor material from Electro Houser, Plastique De Reve. The Jeux Sans Frontieres EP contains 5 tracks ranging from the Baile Funk bounce of 'Favela Norte' through to the 303 soaked Acid House of 'What's on Your Mind?' and the 2-step / Dubstep riddims of 'Allright'. Quality.
