The king of the compilation continues his powerful reign with a majestic selection of tracks endorsed by his new Brownswood Recordings imprint.

Gilles Peterson is king of the compilation. It often seems there's barely a month that goes by without a CD that bears his name emblazoned upon it. Now one might see that as the mark of a respected music lover and talented DJ or alternatively as a sign of money-grabbing opportunism. But the latest CD assembled by Gilles, and the first on his fledgling Brownswood Recordings label, suggests a case of the former since it's a nice insight into what Mr Peterson really rates and what the new-fangled label's output can be expected to sound like.

What is fantastic about this collection of tracks, which broadly fall into the categories of jazz, broken beat, soul and (proper) rhythm and blues, is the mix of unknown gems and well-known bangers. Amongst the tracks that fans of Petersons BBC Radio One show have already been throwing shapes to are Simbad's down-tempo broken beat monster "Soul Fever," Nicole Willis and the Soul Investigators' memorable "Feeling Free" and Brownswood's own startlet Ben Westbeech's "Nothing Else."

And for every nu-jazz dancefloor destroyer, there's a new discovery. Take London soulster Iman's "Who Was I Trying to Fool?" as an example. Make no mistake; this is a beautiful piece of music. Iman's melancholic but genuine vocal delivery complements the reasonably minimal melody and beats wonderfully with the combined result being a real sing-a-long slice of soul. Elsewhere, there's an exclusive - Yellowtail's soulful "Over It" which closes the compilation on a bright and breezy high complete with tight harmonies and stirring brassy business.

The DJs amongst you will be happy to hear that 12" album samplers will be dropping from now until Christmas. Don't hesitate to get hold of these limited edition lovelies. In fact, get two of each. They're an investment you simply won't want to wear thin.
