(Herald rating: * * * * )

Excellent and seamless selection and mix of international house tracks by DJ Mike L, which starts with surreptitious grooves from Klub Filter and Bount, picks up the edge slightly in the middle order (Ginko's funky Strawberry Split with distant chinking guitars, which leads neatly into Papa Stomp's 70s groove Make a Lot of Noise) and, toward the end, the pleasantly relentless beats are punctuated by some git-down'n'git-wid-it grooves. Fashionable DJs will know about this one.
