Hoooookid EP

Hyperdub may be renowned for its high quality output but they seriously upped their game with their first release of 2011. Like seriously upped. Now London based Morgan Zarate is defnitely no newcomer to the scene for those who haven’t heard of him. Long time member of electronic trio Spacek, producer for Ghostface Killah, Dizzee […]

Sunday’s Best Pt. IX

“Nothing is so musical as the sound of pouring bourbon for the first drink on a Sunday morning. Not Bach or Schubert or any of those masters,” Carson McCullers once wrote. Maybe I don’t have enough life experience but I prefer a bit of Allegro vivace con delicatezza and some Trina over a glass of Evan […]

Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs Remixed

I love dinosaurs. I really do. I don’t know what makes millions of year old extinct animals so fascinating but they have to up there with some of the coolest shit ever to have been on the planet. Even cooler than pints of beer that fill up from the bottom? So much cooler. Yes Jurassic […]

Applepips’ Orphan101 EP

Applepips has come long a long way since being launced in 2009 by Bristol based Appleblim and has arguably been on the forefront of  forward thinking music exploring areas between Dubstep, Garage, House and Techno. A label which doesn’t like to use the word ‘genre’ but instead read between the lines and push the very […]

John Roman – Sing EP

People often say too much of a good thing can be a bad thing but when the ‘good thing’ is John Roman’s output over the last year I honestly don’t know how the words ‘bad thing’ even come into the equation. I promise I will never ever use the words good/bad thing more than twice […]

Aloo – Klangbild EP

A lot of time it can be quite disheartening looking through emails only to find tracks from people stuck in the post 2006 electro era but every now and then you come across a a little gem and today this comes in the form of a free EP from Aloo. Looking into who Aloo is, […]

Maceo Plex – Life Index

January. Beyond redemption; a grey, gaping vacuum in which normally, all things of joy fail to thrive. The traditional comedown month of salads and staying in, of drizzle and fiscal woe, the odd bit of forgotten festive frippery  – a few cards left up here and there, the fairy lights hanging limply on a dying […]

Holy Ghost! – Do It Again

Hey what’s the matter? Nothing’s the matter. That’s why I can’t leave my house. I realise that this is the second of my posts in a row about a New York-based artist with Ghost in their name. Sue me. This track from Holy Ghost!, who’ve been drip-feeding us tracks since 2007’s Hold On, have finally […]

Randomer, Adverse & Fife

I’ve been following Randomer ever since I first heard his track Blind on the Hospital Records Podcast back in the day in which I used to be a bit of a drum and bass head and it’s great to see how far he’s come as a producer since then, releasing tracks and EP’s on labels […]

Graphics – I Need You EP

Guys before I start writing about some tunes all I want to say is protect your hearing and protect it good. Woke up from a night out this morning not being able to hear hardly anything from my left ear and I seriously thought I’d damaged my hearing in that ear for good. Turns out […]

Cut Off from the World

I never blog about things I don’t like, but I sure as hell do tweet about them. So I’m going to make a conscious effort this year to tweet less about annoying people in the street, stupid TV shows, ridiculous ads and ridiculous Daily Mail stories. Even though I’ve already broken that by ragging on […]
