London Roundup

We’re in London for just a few more days now. It’s been a blast here although I’m starting to feel like a bloated wale from all the Ale I’ve had (somewhere along the line, Beer replaced water…).
Much love out to Bok Bok and Manara for the Sushi, Cakes and Tea date. OMG soooo much fun!
Shouts [...]

Sawtooth Sucka

New music from the Wearhouse camp this week… Sawtooth Sucka (Lee Mortimer’s) No Letting Go EP marks the seventh release for the label and boats remix heat from the likes of Andy George and Zodiac Cartel.
Deep rooted in 2 Step Garage, the title track Letting Go samples Tina Moore’s anthem ‘Never Gonna Let You Go’ [...]

Wearing My Remix

Wiley’s Wearing My Rolex Remix pack dropped the other day.. Being backed by Atlantic Records, it’s surprising to see the single being reworked by some lesser knowns.
Err I mean, lesser knowns from Atlantic’s prospective I’d imagine, not ours. We’ve been man-crushing on the Pirate Sound Guys for time now and it’s fucking wicked to see [...]

7 Dunham Place

Picked up the debut Loco Dice LP the other day and oh boy is it proper. 7 Dunham Place is something of an Ode-to-New York and reminds me of Burial’s Untrue LP as it’s incredibly well rounded and “street” sounding.
Much like Untrue, the 7 Dunham is heavy with sound scape sampling (most obviously noticed in [...]

Pillz?? Want Pillz??


So I’m pretty surprised that I ended up leaving The End NOT high on E. The nonchalant little dance people did while muttering “Pillz?? Pillz? want Pillz?” in your general direction while you pass on the dancefloor was well amusing.
Sort of reminded me of those scalpers hawking Blue Jays tickets [...]

No Shirts!

First post from my time in London. We arrived yesterday in the late afternoon and after a short nap and some Indian Food, we made the trip down to Plastic People for the last FWD night.
Minus the shift guy with a tied back afro-puff pickpocketing unsuspecting girls purses, we had a fucking blast! Killer [...]

Bass Up North

Did a fair bit of Bassline hunting during our little break. One of the better bits I came across was this nifty I Got 5 On It boot by Mikey B.
It’s not surprising this got a huge reaction at a jam I played last week. Fuck what’s not to love?? Luniz + Wobble Bass = [...]

Vocals Rmx?


Aghhhhhhhh!!! The Techno Vocals strike again! This time Marc Houle’s 2007 anthem gets the bootleg treatment by Joe and Will Ask. I still prefer the original over JAWA’s refix but I’ve got to give the boys some credit. This boot is proper wicked!
Def check other productions from the pair. They’ve [...]

Knifey Spoony

Yes! I’ve been waiting for what seams like eons to write about this new bit from Knifehandchop. Now with Fabric being released on a compilation LP promoting Canada’s Electronic Music Festival MUTEK held annually in Quebec, we’ve got the green light.
Knifehandchop hits home with a gatted and chopped Ragga vocal over booming electro beats.
Knifehandchop - [...]

Zodiac Speaks to the Starrs

We wrote about the illusive Zodiac Cartel back in the winter months and feel it’s due time for some love again.
In addition to a new mixtape (seen in the post previous to this) Zodiac is back in action with lovey remix of Rennie Pilgrem’s Drumma.
Back when we first wrote about the Cartel there was talk [...]

And The Mixes Came Rollin’ In

It’s been a while since we posted something. Sorry about that! Good news is that during our little break, we got a shit load of tunes and music sent our way.
Figured I’d group the best of the mixes together in this one post. Oddly enough, all the mixes happen to be from our English [...]
