Miche – With Love Volume 3 (2xLP)

“With Love: Volume 3 (Compiled by miche)” is a richly curated compilation that sees DJ and collector miche expand the horizons of his celebrated series. It continues the “With Love” tradition of unearthing rare, independent soul tracks from around the world, but with Volume 3 he introduces a noticeably jazzier and more global palette. The collection spans styles such as Brazilian samba-funk, Turkish jazz-soul, private-press soul gems, and mid-century jazz funk, delivering 16 tracks on its 2LP or 2×CD formats. Highlights include Late Nite Music Band’s gliding jazz-funk in “Sundance”, Spectrym’s luminous “In Flight”, the emotional warmth of John Simmons’ “Ain’t Nothing Like The Love”, and the floaty, Brazilian-inspired Turkish gem “Gölge” by Nükhet Ruacan. Throughout, there is a thread of warmth and discovery — the sort of curation that invites both deep listening and movement.

Volume 3 doesn’t simply rely on previously known favourites; miche digs deeper into lesser-heard corners, combining feel-good groove with introspective moments. The sequence flows so that soulful vocals, layered instrumentation, and groove-driven rhythm sections balance each other — it works both for relaxed moments at home and for more active listening in social or club settings. In short, “With Love: Volume 3” is proof of a maturing curator, someone deeply invested in revitalising overlooked music and giving listeners both heart and movement.
