Jay L - 6/10

This is Jay L's second release for BRSTL (a label from Bristol of course). This small imprint by Shanti Celeste and Idle Hands' Chris Farrell is now into double figures. 'Show Me' is a good snapshot of Jay L's recent Boiler Room debut with his take on classic US house with a bouncing, British bassline.

'Blue Age' is a smooth, deep cut, all walking bassline, broken drum groove and shimmering keys. All in all, this is a super-confident release that tells the world the Bristol house scene is alive and well.
