Matt says: ‘Nightfall’ is the sibling album to our main chart compilation, taking in a more clubby after-dark vibe featuring tracks from our electronica, dance singles and jazz charts.

Opening the set is "Twinkling Stars", a track by Nine Circles and taken from our No. 1 collection, ‘Night Train’. Warming us up for the night ahead with its radioactive synth work and eerie vocals, it drifts hypnotically into modern synthstress, Kelly Lee Owens' "Love You Got", which starts to give us all the tingles and expectation of a Big Night Out through its 4/4 kicks and soaring vocals. Kelly’s been a regular on our racks for some time so this was an obvious inclusion. Next, we've got Ishmael Ensemble and Tranquil Elephantizer hitting the jugular via two highly charged and evocative club tracks which leave little chance to catch your breath. “Trisha” exploded earlier in the year when Luke Una played it on his Worldwide show and the Felix Dickenson remix we’ve bagged here buzzes with energy.

On to side B and after all that excitement we've got Psychederek who slows the pace with his inspired and genius, jazz-funk-themed take on the Manchester anthem "Pacific State", taken from his Sprechen-released, “Alt EP” (and originally penned by 808 State of course). The wind-down continues with Balearic bliss from Gábor Pörneczi aka Coyote, and smoochy soul from Private Joy - our Pops, who’s enjoyed a string of successful collaborations before blowing us away with her solo debut on Rhythm Section. Then it’s the turn of Kiasmos and Jasmine Myra to usher us into a more horizontal listening position as we await the comforting onset of slumber. “Sworn” is a delicate, piano-driven piece which pulls at the heartstrings; while “From Embers” tucks us into bed with a heavenly track rich with saxophone and seemingly godly synchronicity between its musicians.
