Passport to Paradise continue their winning streak with an exclusive release from man of the cloth, digger extraordinaire, John Zahl / Jaz. If you ve seen his video for Thump, you ll know that Jaz and his works are weird, wrong and wonderful: in a word, the ethos of PTP is alive and kicking in this release. First up, Geisha chugs along in the cosmic dust of 80s synth assortments and flourishes of koto. Scatter-brained brilliance from the deepest of Osaka basements. A2, Move to the Beach, heralds a sleeker, sleazier side to Jaz s episcopal offering. It builds itself out from a latent groove that ushers in the end of the night, carrying you to the empty seafront just before dawn, where a breeze ruffles the palm trees as you dig your eyes into the moon. Turning the page, we have a rework from the same post-Kraftwerk heritage, but this one is more potent synthpop roller, a straight-up, no frills edit for the toughest of dance floors. The final track, Twin Theory, is a lofty affair from the outset, its arpeggiated bass holding the track to ransom: it is playful yet very serious, sublime and sarcastic. This is what Passport to Paradise are bringing to your homes and dancefloors. Don t miss ou

DJ Feedback

AARON LEVITT - WWFM AND STAMP THE WAX

Phoooar the title track is amazing. Just the kind of bonkers stuff I love. Reminds me of the Lipelis stuff out on LIES recently.

ROBIN LEE - FAZE ACTION

Loving this weird and wonderful world of Jazz. Takes me back in time a bit. It's sort of Balearic, Italo disco, synth laden production is very evocative of a time in the 80s when the world wasn't quite as small a place as it is now. I'm trying to figure out if the spoken word on the title track is a Japanese person putting on a thick European accent or is it just a European person speaking Japanese? At any rate. Will be supporting.

TIM SWEENEY - BEATS IN SPACE

I could see playing this on Beats In Space radio show if I could get the files!

GEOFFREY MUGWUMP

A1, B2 are my picks to play out at first listen, but its a great EP a s a whole. will play at gigs and will consider for radio plays.

MARK GILBERT - STUPID HUMAN

Defo support, dope release ! can i have files. This ones a keeper and i'll buy vinyl as thats my preferred medium anyway.

PIERS HARRISON - SOFT ROCKS/ PERSIAN

Not only is Jaz in my top 10 Episcopalian ministers / DJ's OF ALL TIME but he's also a dab hand in the digging and editing game. these 4 left field dance gems span the mood spectrum but all have a quirky charm that makes them impossible to dislike.

ANDY SIMMS - SOFT ROCKS

Loving the Jaz Edits especially Geisha & Move to the Beat. I'll play on Radio tomorrow night & they will definitely get a spin at Kinfolk this weekend.
