4.Synkro - Body Close

Synkro is one of my all time favourite producers and this track has a lot of hidden meaning to me. Every release that Synkro has had has been in my catalogue.

5.Villain Park - Play The Villain

Ive only recently found Villain Park and they’re style/flow is awesome. Reminds me of that old school style with that new school flow. Hip hop has always been a massive part of my life.

If ever there was a mix series that was more suited to a Sunday, and particularly one where you’ve got some scheduled chill time booked in, All Good Funk Alliance’s ‘Late Night Workshop’ is the one. All the previous 19 volumes have been lovingly handcrafted with the most soul soothing music the guys can lay there hands on and volume 20 continues in the same vein, with an hours worth of music that you’ll want to listen to again and again. The Autumn sun is beaming through my window and this mix is playing as I type, life feels pretty damn good right about now and I hope the good times find you too.

It’s always time to sit up and take note when there’s new music from K+Lab heading your way because this New Zealander really knows how to make the kind of tunes that has everyone hunting for their spot on the dance floor. There’s no getting away from that fact when you check out his latest free tune, a bouncy Drum n Bass bootleg of ‘Regulate’ by, Warren G feat. Nate Dogg, that has a great energy and groove with a touch of filth for good measure. Party making music without doubt!

Featurecast is another artist who has more than enjoyed his festival packed summer. The grassy, sometimes muddy fields of the UK, have taken a pounding when he’s been behind the decks and one of the tunes that has been getting the biggest reactions in his sets is his own remix of ‘Keep On Jumping’ by, Todd Terry. He’s put a somewhat unexpected House twist on the original which is not normally a path he chooses to tread, but as you can expect, Featurecast has done things proper by applying a Disco tinged, Bass House twist that’s so damn filthy, you’ll need to get jet-washed after each listen! Keep on jumping you will.
