I forget about these quality Foals remixes but the Ambo gig last night and the Various Productions mashup during the week reminded me how good they are. Two really good examples of remixes that use elements of the songs to paint a different vibe the first techno/house, the second electronic/dubstep. Foals - Red Socks Pugie (Henrik [...]

Contributors include A-Force, Richie !Kaboogie, Sixfoot Apprentice, Redmonk, and various friends on the Irish "hardcore-continuum" scene. The first 'Monster Mash' by PCP [...]

Really nice to hear some new Herv considering he's been quiet for a while. This is all old-school rave, bleep Ceephax acid and Druqs ambience. It serves as a ten minute taster for his new album coming in March 2009. Download link to the ZIP. If you like this try: Free and Legal: Alphabet Set / Acroplane compilation

Portugal's Buraka Som Sistema debut album Black Diamond came out week and the band have released a 20 minute mixtape full of banging ghettotech tunes, mostly their own. The Kano collaboration sounds really good here and I'm liking Drop the Lime's dub bass remix of 'Sound of Kuduro' It's an intense skank and move. Buraka Som [...]

Annie Mac has been banging on about this track of late and rightly so, it's amazing. Easily the best remix I've heard in a while. At just shy of ten minutes, this is epic, disco house at its absolute best. Go on my son. Dj Mehdi - Pocket Piano (Joachim remix) It's from a 12″ EP from [...]

News has reached today that the crazy one out of Mars Volta.. (scratch that.. they're all crazy surely), Omar Lopez will release Old Money on the largely hip-hop label Stones Throw in late January. The album is available digitally . El-P's megamixx 2 is here. It's probably not that surprising considering Omar contributed to [...]

The response to Volume One launched Akala's career who has since released two critically acclaimed albums on his own Illa State [...]

The best album I've heard in the last month or so is easily the just-released eponymous album by Little Joy. The band are notable for being a new project by the drummer of The Strokes, Fabrizio Moretti. Although he only provides backing vocals to main singer Rodrigo Amarant and more sporadically Binki Shapiro, the stamp [...]

The honour of Fabric's first proper artist album release has fallen to Portugal's Buraka Som Sistema and their debut album Black Diamond. Their sound has been invariably described as electro ghettotech and Euro baile funk but in reality, it is rooted in Kudoro - a genre which is thriving in Lisbon's suburbs but was born [...]
