      • 10. That’s About The Time (I Fell In Love With You) - Quiet Fire

      This compilation sees the return of Acid Jazz’s iconic ‘Totally Wired’ series, which became a huge success in the early 1990s, following the international breakthrough of the likes of The Brand New Heavies, Jamiroquai and the James Taylor Quartet.

      Originating in 1988, initially compiled by Eddie Piller and Gilles Peterson as a ‘Best Of’, the ‘Totally Wired’ series became an independent music phenomenon, selling in the tens of thousands, with major label artists even vying for inclusion, with a significant influence in shaping the sound of the time as Acid Jazz went global.

      The return of ‘Totally Wired’ is a milestone that continues to showcase the depth and development of Acid Jazz, combining new and exclusive releases with previously unheard gems.

      Highlights include an exclusive unreleased track from Matt Berry, ‘Crucifix Lane’, following the release of his Top 30 album ‘Heard Noises’ in January, a new track from scene veteran Chris Bangs - ‘Tambores De Vida’, a white label cut from Soul Revivers’ forthcoming album (featuring
      Kokoroko’s Shiela Maurice-Grey and Anoushka Nanguy), plus recent releases from the wider scene, from BDQ, The Romero Brothers and the remarkable UK soul singer Carmy Love.

      Meanwhile, new signings Earth-o-Naut and Quiet Fire appear alongside label legends The Brand New Heavies, who offer an outstanding funk take on Aretha Franklin’s ‘Rock Steady’, and the Acid Jazz Orchestra’s one-off release, taking on Corduroy’s ’Something In My Eye’ - the first-time vinyl release of these titles.
