Now that record stores are stuck with a glut of mediocre house music mixes, it’s encouraging to know some labels are actually trying to inject some new life into the mix-CD genre. UK label Hooj, self-proclaimed occasional providers of “half decent house” fulfills its obligations with the decent Le Future Le Funk. Compiled and mixed by Red Jerry and Ross Cale, Le Future benefits from a wide range of track selections of glitzy, new-school house and techno, featuring Metro Area, Brooks, Swayzak, Mr. Velcro Fastener and Rokysopp’s remix of Mekon’s “Please Stay.” Sure, the mix could have been whittled down to one CD but this is still a far better listen than any Ibiza-related mix.
