Music sounds better with you....



Riiight, time for the weekly dose of new tunage I've discovered while spending hours scouring blogs like some type of socially inept hermit. All tunes are as yet unreleased, but causing a skirmish regardless so get your frontal ear lobes locked onto these bad boys....

BLOG BURNER:

It was a hard choice this week I have to say, but after much soul searching I've decided that this new mix from L-Vis 1990 on MJ Cole & Wiley's forthcoming single 'From The Drop' is doing the damage. You can always trust L-Vis to go freaky-naughty on the remix and he certainly doesn't disappoint with this. Elastic bass, echoed vocal chops & a true badman riddim makes this fairly heavyweight material.

Next up, Diplo & Switch have dusted off the old percussion organ to give Gyptian's new single 'Hold Yuh' a nice dancefloor friendly bounce. To be fair, lyrically this song could have been easily placed on 'Guns don't kill...' which is probably why they've done such a fantastic job remixing it. Drop this peak time & trick people into thinking it's early 90's house. (Exactly what I'll be doing at Glasgow University Union).

And the award for most unrecognisable remix this week goes to The Krays, if you ever wanted to hear Robyn in the style of Daft Punk then here it is. Consisting of Yuksek & Brodinski, The Krays have been firing off remixes all over the shop this year and the quality has never failed to impress. Slow building electro that will work for Aeroplane & Erol alike.

Finally, Riton & DJ Mehdi come together again after the summer success of their Carte Blanche project. Here they take on the Scissor Sisters new single 'Any Which Way', which already has a super-hot mix from Tensnake supporting it. On this version they fire off the sirens, beef it up for the dancefloor and get the piano chops out for the lads. Funkee. Catch Carte Blanche at the Sub Club for Mixed Bizness on the 29th of oct.

P.S the photos I use for these posts have nothing to do with anything other than the fact they look nice. Check out more at davidblackphotography.com
