Ben Gomori's Monologues Records brings two of its most popular releases to vinyl after a long wait. Laurence Guy's 'Les Mur' EP signalled the start of a great run for the London producer, with releases following on Church, Dirt Crew Recordings and Fort Romeau's Cin Cin. The title track is a graceful, deep piano roller, while 'Sunlite' goes into chuggier, synthier territory.
Young French talent Leon Revol has released on Apersonal and Kolour LTD with some very fine sample-heavy grooves, but 'Clear Definition (Dub Mix)' shows he's not short on his own ideas - with a tinge of the early Herbert sound to it. 'Eulogy For Hip-Hop' takes some lush disco strings and whirls them into a romantic slice of early doors class.
