Summary: Kim Ann Foxman has had quite the career. As the former vocalist of nu-disco troupe Hercules and Love Affair she notched up serious acclaim, but in recent years has been building up her name as a house DJ and producer, releasing 12″s on a slew of labels including her own Firehouse imprint. Foxman’s ability to fuse the soulful, sensual sounds of deep house and the slithering, bass-heavy jackin’ flavors of the classic Chicago sound is rare, and completely visible on this hour-long selection. Mostly focusing on her own tracks (and including plenty of exclusive, unreleased tracks) she pushes through a variety of styles, never losing sight of the club and ending on a vintage cut from Aussie post-punkers Severed Heads.
