Always the pinnacle of all things funky and fresh, we are treated this year to another volume of the much-lauded Saint Germain Des Pres Café series.
Now rolling with 15 volumes under it’s belt, these compilations always deliver the highlights from a year’s worth of electronic delights. Taking in Downtempo, Nu-Jazz, Funk and House we get a full-spectrum tracklist this time around with cuts coming from Crazy P, Nightmares on Wax, Rey & Kjavik, Ty and many more.
As an amazing addition to volume 15 we’re gifted a rare-find in the form of a second disc mixed by the dons of downtempo Thievery Corporation. The duo trawl the back-catalogue of their label Eighteenth Street Lounge and bring us tunes from Thunderball, Ocote Souls Sound, Federico Aubele, Congo Sanchez and of course Thievery themselves.
