Various - Spring Tube Sampler 02

Spring Tube SamplerSpring Tube is a relatively new label who've been sending me some good stuff of late... if you've get to catch the Spring Tube vibe, then this second label showcase is a fine place to start.

The general idea for the label seems to be to put out what they regard good music regardless of genre. Hence, there's quite a range of styles on here, and so every single track might not be to every single listener's taste (one or two are a bit too proggy or a bit too "downtempo" for me personally). But hey, variety is the spice of life and all that. For our purposes today, this has enough groovy little nuggets – Antifish's laidback chillout/deep house cut Everything Will Be, Claes Rosen's Into The Bloom, the drifty, uplifting, want-to-hear-it-in-Ibiza-really sunshine prog of Kenneth Thomas's All Is Not Lost, and more – to make it certainly worthy of your attention.

Out: Last week, sorry, but I didn't get to review it at the weekend as planned - an emergency tooth extraction due to excruciating pain kind of got in way of things…

About: Spring Tube is run by Russian duo East Sunrise and Latvian DJ/producer Slang, but as far as I can tell they're based in the US. Find out more at their Facebook page and website/blog thingy

Oh, and the toothache seems to be gone now. Just in case you were wondering. But I'm not counting any chickens just yet...
