Break New Soil's impressive "Breaking New Soil" series reaches its fifth instalment and whilst we've been treated to multi-track EP's, the latest from label is a weighty eight track compilation. "We created the series as a platform to bring together artists from our roster, friends of the label and also material that we've been sent for consideration" says label boss Gregor Tresher. Each and every track is selected because its worked well in my own DJ sets. It seems that with each instalment we just have more to bring you." For Vol. 5 we are treated to new tracks from label favourites Marco Effe, Romano Alfieri and Luca Bear or as Gregor calls them "our Italian family" and BNS debutant, Coyu. "His Suara label is for me, one of the most consistent right now" says Tresher. Macromism return with a follow up to their vol. 4 contribution, which was one of the highlights of the ep and drop another bomb, whilst we also welcome Mr Bizz who impressed greatly with their recent release on Octopus. Alex Dolby & Santos obviously need little introduction and with Gregor working on a remix project for them, the favour is returned with a new cut that presents a new side to their sound. Wrapping things up are Mario Da Ragnio who returns to the label with a nasty little groover and new Italian artist Alex Delia who drops an essential tool for the floor.
