Anonymous records are always fun. It's the inherent mystery they carry that pushes the hype to the next level. This record isn't entirely in the dark, it just seemed like the record label forgot to credit the artist on the actual record or the sleeve. Luckily for us, London prodigy Lukid can take the credit for this one. "Genie" is a great upbeat track loaded with summery vibes and a whole heap of bass. The track samples BBQ Band's "Genie" (sample appears around 40 seconds), and leave more of a 90's vibe than anything else. This one aint cheap, but you can pick it up from Discogs as usual here.

I know what you're thinking—all I ask is that you try to remeber that old saying "don't judge a book by it's cover". Today's track comes as a re-edit of "I'm Not Moving" by none other than Phil Collins. If you ask the average kid what they think about Phil Collins in this day and age, you may get little more than a sour looking expression. Luckily, for those that respect Collins' place in musical history, we have a spectacular re-edit allegedly coming from two North London locals known as the Idjut Boys. This re-edit seems to transcend the seemingly immiscible sounds of both Phil Collins and dub disco—which until I heard this, did not know was possible. I can't really put my finger on what attracts me to this track so much, but I can tell you confidently that before this, I've never had Phil Collins lyrics stuck in my head. This white label record will cost you a pretty penny, but with a B-side featuring a Marvin Gaye edit, the price is hard to argue. Purchase it from Discogs.

During my weekly trip to my local record store, I stumbled upon this white label masterpiece that I thought deserved a post. Simply bearing the catalog name of "MICHAEL001" on the A-side, this record features two unaccredited edits of Michael Jackson classics "I Can't Help It", and "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" by Norwegian producer Terje Olsen. While the B-side sounds more like a demo cut of "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough", the A-Side features an upbeat disco edit that highlights the timeless vocals and a prominent bassline—a true gem that consistently entertains during the almost 10 minute track length. While I am unsure of it's availability digitally, you can pick up copies of this limited white label from Discogs here.
