More than twenty years after Confessions on a Dance Floor reignited Madonna's love affair with the club, Confessions II sees her reunite with producer Stuart Price for a record that once again places the dancefloor at the centre of the story. Drawing on house, disco and euphoric electronic pop, the album explores the dancefloor not simply as a place to party, but as a space for freedom, connection and transformation.

Another great throwback, and first time on re-issue by synth-pop trio Bronski Beat Thruthdare Doubledare. The album marked a significant change in the direction giving way to a rougher and rawer style, featuring more real instruments, ever-powerful lyrics and more variety in genre.

We've received a very limited restock of time-traveling duo Angine de Poitrine's Vol.1 math rock sensation. If you missed out best advice is to nab a copy quickly.

Following their acclaimed collaborations with The Heliocentrics, Karl Hector & The Malcouns return with Sahara Swing a fusion of Afro-funk, desert blues and psychedelic soul. Inspired by the music of the southern Sahara, the album is built around crisp drums, rolling basslines, snaking electric guitars and bursts of brass giving it that loose, live-band feel. For fans of Mulatu Astatke, The Heliocentrics or the Analog Africa.

One of this week's standout rediscoveries, Natrus finally brings to light recordings that have been lost for over 40 years. It's the first-ever release from the Birmingham roots reggae outfit Natrus, with recordings unearthed and lovingly restored by Reggae Archive Records. The vinyl captures the warmth and authenticity of Britain's flourishing late-'70s reggae scene. A fascinating lost chapter in UK reggae history until now.

Before hip-hop became a global force, it was a handful of DJs, MCs and independent labels capturing the energy of New York block parties on vinyl for the very first time. Super Rappin' NYC: Grandmaster Flash And The Roots Of Rap traces those formative years through a collection of pioneering recordings that helped shape the culture from the ground up.

The latest Rare Groove Collection heads to Addis Ababa, gathering twenty essential cuts of Ethio-jazz, funk and soul from legends including Mulatu Astatke, Mahmoud Ahmed and Getatchew Mekurya. Ethiopian Rare Groove (2LP) is a gateway into Ethio-jazz and is packed with recognisable highlight such as Yègellé Tezeta, Tezeta, I Wanna Do My Thing rather than deep-archive obscurities.

And lastly, one for the adventurous. 1984 – A Happening captures Nurse With Wound's second-ever public performance, recorded in Amsterdam in 1984 and left unheard in Steven Stapleton's archive for over four decades. One of the most influential and uncompromising acts in British experimental music this is less an album of songs than an immersive piece of experimental sound art. Issued as a handmade, heavyweight vinyl edition of just 300 copies worldwide, it's a genuine collector's piece.

Ancient Infinity Orchestra return with their third album, It’s Always About Liberation, a new record that deepens the vision of their acclaimed recent work while moving into darker, more searching emotional territory.

After nearly three years, there's a brand-new installment in Tramp Records’ Disco/Boogie series. Can you Feel it Vol. 5 offers a colourful mix of 13 obscure but brilliant MODERN SOUL, DISCO and BOOGIE tunes that will take you on a guided tour back into the late 1970s and 80s Disco era. Never released tracks.

Norwegian innovator, trumpeter and producer Nils Petter Molvaer presents Be Quiet an album built with nine distinct artists including Imogen Heap and John Paul Jones, recorded in cities spanning Bangkok, Rome, Berlin and London. Across landscapes of electronica, ambient textures and jazz improvisation, Be Quiet unfolds as an intimate, spatial set of recordings with Moalvaer's unmistakable trumpet voice.

On their eponymous debut album FATHERS the collective uses jazz as a jumping off point for an 8-track set that seamlessly blends jazz textures, hip-hop beats, and funk grooves into a potent mix. New generations of musicians continue to explode existing notions of what jazz is by fearlessly taking the music in new directions.

Nuevos Ríos is the new project born from the meeting of Colombia’s iconic band Canalón de Timbiquí and the Toulouse-based trio Reco Reco, known for their explorations of trance-driven rhythms from South America and beyond. In this music, we feel tropical heat, musical traditions, and the sweat of European dancefloors in a unique cocktail —instantly addictive and irresistibly danceable.
