This year's edition - the eight in total - is no different. Without fail, Futureboogie Recordings' annual 'Summer Riot' EPs are always amongst the Bristol-based imprint's finest releases of the year. It naturally includes some highly influential and classic cuts - see Mr Flagio's throbbing 'Take A Chance', Charlie's intergalactic 'Spacer Woman', and a track that helped inspire the Chicago house movement, 'Feel The Drive' by Doctor's Cat - alongside a clutch of rarities and lesser-celebrated workouts such as Mr Mine's 'Hypnotic Tango', Clio's 'Faces' (which sounds like much of the Pet Shop Boys' debut album, 'Please'), Wet's 'That's The Game' and the Latin-influenced, horn-heavy strut of Vivian Vee's 'Remember'. Should you require an introduction to the camp, sleazy and synth-heavy world of 1980s Italo-Disco, this superb set should be an essential purchase.
