With its rapidly increasing range of gay bars, Amsterdam-style window-box prostitutes and impressively chilled attitudes towards personal cannabis use, Belgium has recently started competing directly with Holland on cultural terms, though musically they've long left their European neighbour in the shade.
Via the likes of legendary label R&S and the country's infamous Fuse club, the tiny nation of 10million souls has long appreciated quality cutting edge clubbing and music and Dr Lektroluv is the latest Belgium character to prove the rule.
Firmly based in the electro (clash) trend sweeping the world's better dressed nighteries the good Dr appears to be consolidating his position as Belgium's DJ Hell on this, his third such mix CD, by continuing his theme of mixing 80s electro-disco rarities with cutting edge new disko grooves.
Delving beyond the more obvious names The Dr clearly knows his stuff, digging deeper in his medicine cabinet, to find some seriously effective musical medicine. Thus Detroit's Drexciya appear under their Japanese Telecom alias while Depeche Mode's The Death Of The Night makes the cut, though reworked by Disko B's for his Electronicat mix. Sony's much hyped contenders Jollymusic also contribute their anthem Radio Jolly (via an Alden Tyrell remix) on what's an infectious and distinctly uplifting slice of new electro disco.
