Larry Heard 'Rebirth 10' (Rebirth)
House heads already know precisely who Larry Heard is: he’s Mr Fingers and the producer behind perennial vocal anthem ‘The Sun Can’t Compare’ as Mr White. He’s also already remixed three tracks for Italian label Rebirth (check out ‘Even If’ by Bocca Grande on the second disc/mix), and has now been recruited to mix 46 of the label’s best. The music is excellent, and while the mixing doesn’t always soar (hey, there’s a lot to cram in here), remixes from Morgan Geist, dOP. Soul Clap and Mark E are a reminder that since the closure of Buzzin’ Fly, Rebirth have picked up the baton when it comes to vocal house.
