boxout.fm Recordings' 2nd V/A Compilation Sees Lush Lata Handpick Dancefloor Stompers

After 2021's 'SUCHI SELECTS', boxout.fm Recordings is back with the second instalment of its artist-curated compilation series with 'LUSH LATA SELECTS' handpicked by New Delhi DJ Lush Lata.

The 7-track compilation kicks off with 'Cognac Bounce' by duo MadStarBase, who continue to prove themselves masters of creating booming dancefloor numbers with a sensual oomph while Zealotantrik continues that boom but with the colour of some lo-fi artefacts. Following Insowmya's sampled esoteric percussion-heavy 'Shut Up', collaborative numbers by PAV4N and Sukh Knight, as well as, Captain Fuse and Mukt highlight the defining quality of the compilation: heavy use of sampling, picking up vocal hooks from a variety of sources but more commonly vintage records and creating bass-led compositions.

The latter collaboration by Captain Fuse and Mukt remains the most interesting offering on the compilation as Geeta Dutt's 'Tumi Je Amaar' transforms into a stuttering concoction of slow-funk and hip-hop.
