As we unfold the second instalment of our annual compilation of exclusive gems we couldn't be more excited to have Mr. Eric Sneo kick things off with the aptly titled -yet grinding- "Beauty Of The Sky", followed closely by the rocksteady groove and haunting electronics of Arjun Vagale. Rafa Barrios picks up from there, strips things down to a bare minimum and adds a cheeky sample which everyone will recognize. Paride Saraceni graces us with a heads-down number, complete with house strings and meaty chords, while Matt Sassari and Reinier Zonneveld give us the claustrophobic "Gas". Closing up, Raffaele Rizzi's "Rebus" constantly evolves and builds over a rubber-band bassline and commading vocals.
