Previously in the Five Mixes Are Better Than One series: Part I & Part II & Part III. My father always used to tell me that sleep paralysis was something like horoscope signs: because there isn’t enough scientific proof that it’s real, this Darwin Lite papa chose to completely dismiss the entire phenomenon. It was cool […]

It is a self evident truth that everybody loves receiving high quality music for FREE! This truth appears to be the driving force behind Glasgow blog turned record label Phuturelabs who just dropped their first release today! Their first offering is a two track EP from Edinburgh producer Wira titled “Vloeitjes” (rolling papers to me and […]

I’m willing to bet £100 that anyone remotely interested in electronic music has listened to or owns a Fabric/Live CD. If you haven’t then I’m going to straight out say you’re lying! If you really haven’t then you’re going to go and spend those £100 on as many Fabric Live CD’s as you can! (Quick […]

Mellow Orange probably have one of the most fitting names out there for their music collective. Whatever they put out seems to always have a soothing little charm to it that makes you want to close your eyes and get instantly transported to a tranquil beach during an orange sunset, where living in sheer utopia […]

Its been out for a couple of weeks as an exclusive on Beatport but NT89’s and Saviles Plug EP has finally hit the shores of all major online outlets for your personal consumption and having been my most wanted EP for quite a while now, it’s safe to say my new favourite Italians (sorry Crookers, […]

I think you’re dope but don’t underestimate your following, I know for a fact that the Russian Federation is the largest country in the world. “S dnem rozhdeniya” means happy birthday in Russian.

Counter productivity. I end up delaying everything when my phone tells me to go do something profitable. I think this is due to the fact that I’m having a Club Mate cold turkey, a drink that a) has a really funny name b) my friends and I had all summer, and probably the reason why […]

He made a lot of noise this year and last under is other alias Momma’s Boy but Mikix the Cat is still working up the clubs with lots of fresh new tracks. Hot Block, anyone? As well as making beats, he’s recently collaborated with Japanese fashion brand Revolver, to put out some really cool high […]

Don’t you find it annoying when an artist with normal words for a name get so big that the actual meaning of the word is forgotten and all you associate with that word is the artist? I’ve literally forgotten what Justice even means. When someone shouts Danger, all I’m going to think of is that […]

Sometimes your favourite artists disappear for a while, and they come back with something you wouldn’t expect at all. That singer-songwriter you were really into disappeared for two years and came back with a tacky trance-pop album, that one obscure violinist released an over-the-top disco album and that classic hardcore punk band started making shitty […]

So I think I’ve pretty much only just recovered from partying last weekend to likes of Fake Blood, A-trak, Redlight, Mele, Herve, Sinden, Katy B and many more at the Count and Sinden album launch and I now feel fit to bless all you readers with some more music. First up is a recent remix […]

Slowly but surely, I am starting to get over my irrational fear for remix albums. Perhaps it’s that remix album phase that a lot of indie bands went through around 2007 that scarred me (Yes Bloc Party, I am looking at you), or maybe it’s a slight anxiousness somewhere that my favourite albums are about […]
