Totally Wired - A New Collection from Acid Jazz

More than two decades away informed on this latest Totally Wired compilation: A New Collection From Acid Jazz, a fresh chapter in one of the label's most defining projects. Originally launched in 1988 by Eddie Piller and Gilles Peterson, the series captured the sound of the emerging acid jazz scene, then a tight-knit movement centred on forward-thinking club culture and rediscovered rarities. This latest instalment reflects a label in confident form, with new signings like Earth-O-Naut and Quiet Fire laying beside exclusive material from Matt Berry, Chris Bangs, and a rare Soul Revivers 45 featuring Kokoroko's Shiela Maurice-Grey and Anoushka Nanguy. Vintage highlights include the Acid Jazz Orchestra reinterpreting Corduroy and a floor-shaking take on 'Rock Steady' by The Brand New Heavies.
