Manchester's Krystal Klear returns to All City with 'We're Wrong', the mysterious project's most classic house inspired offering to date. The title track is a pure early-90s Crystal Waters piano anthem, while flip side 'From The Start' adds a contemporary funky touch. Anthem alert!

Onra's 2007 'Chinoiseries' was a wonderful journey into oriental-tinged experimental hip-hop, now he returns a few years later in a similar style. Keeping the quality high across 32 short tracks, dicing and traversing vintage Eastern samples with yes, Dilla-esque multi-fluidity. Lush.

One of our favourite producers at the moment, Manchester's xxxy, could hardly have chosen a more fitting title for his All City debut: 'Kerpow' is a prime-grade breakbeat slammer that alternates big pads, cowbells and squarewave bass stabs. It's backed by 'Down With U' which gives a Juke-style hook a Drexciyan spin. Outstanding single!

Selected as Artist of week #42

All City presents the worldwide debut of The Midnight Eez. Reportedly a 1995/1996 mixtape demo given virtually anonymously to All City co-founder Splyce during a record buying excursion to NYC, this somewhat 'unauthorized' release will hopefully unearth its original creators to give them their overdue credit.

The first part of All City's new 'Collabs' series has technostep master Martyn side with hip-hop experimentalist Mike Slott. 'All Nights' is a killer house track with a percussive dupstep groove beneath its Shed-style chords, which his followed by 'Pointing Fingers', a playfully abstract downbeat exercise in a FlyLo vein.

Another fresh set of beats straight out of LA brought to us via Glasgow's All City Records and the sixth edition of their LA Series. Featuring the pairing of Daedelus and Teebs, this electrifying set of instrumentals raises the bar for LA's finest beat-tweakers.

Our favourite French beatmaker returns with 'The One', a great stumbling hip-hop single featuring the vocal talents of Slum Village's T3. Comes with instrumentals and two different remixes by Detroit's Waajeed.

Parisian beatmaker Onra gets all retro with 'Long Distance', a great slice of downtempo electro R&B. Featured vocalists on the title track and its flip, the equally funky 'High Hopes', are Oliver DaySoul and Reggie B, also known from their work for All City and 4Lux. Should get steaming hot on the floor with this one.
