Bestival on The Isle of Wight is the grand finale of the festival season here in the UK. Paul Cheeba was invited over to play this super cool festy and judging by the sound of this mix, the crowd was given a real treat! A shimmering and glitzy set of Disco, House, Hip Hop and Funk was laid down and is now available to us to enjoy. The best way to end your Monday!

A lush Progressive Breaks remix by, A9entOran9e, of ‘ Suburban Whispers ‘ by Wax Hands. The original, a deep Tech House number is lifted up a notch with some broken beats and very colourful synths. Highly atmospheric with a slight gritty edge makes for a very enjoyable listen!

The South Coast of England seems to be a never ending conveyor belt of quality music producers! Brighton based  House producer, Tom Luka, is the latest one we’ve come across and his edit of ‘ Limit To Your Love ‘ by James Blake instantly caught our attention! From the off you’re transfixed to it with the build, piano heavy from the original. It builds and progresses at a sublime pace giving off a real warming glow with the richness of it’s sound. This ones going down, deep down!

Meat Katie is back with his ever excellent ‘ Lowering The Tone ‘ podcast. The first hour sees him take a full on stance with his choice of music dropping in a few LOT49 exclusives. The next hour and a half is joyfully filled with an interview with Tech House guru, Ben Coda. They share a few beverages in Meat Katie’s front room and discuss production, Djing, f**king up, being in a band, social media, festivals, getting wasted and a time capsule. A very enjoyable listen indeed!

Meat Katie has also been busy updating his Bandcamp page of late with lots of free music going up. As is the way with Bandcamp, if you feel the music is worthy enough you can always donate a little to help these podcasts along the way. Hit the link below to find tons of the good stuff!

Another absolute treat for fans and lovers of vinyl and classic 92 era breakbeat hardcore c/o Jedi Recordings. Insomnia were the production duo of DJ UFO & Chris Rossi, both tracks were originally released on C.S.I Records and famously played by Top Buzz and Ellis Dee respectively, to buy the original vinyl is a matter of finding it (its rare) and will cost an arm and leg unless you make the right choice and pre order this vinyl repress with the blessing of Insomnia themselves  and at a very reasonable £9 with the added bonus of DJ jedi’s excellent remix of ‘Down To Earth’, its a no brainer really, support real oldskool by real oldskool artists and get to own to rare and much sought after rave classics!!!

INSOMNIA- NOSTALGIA/DOWN TO EARTH [JEDI RECORDINGS]

Wesbeanz is a dude we’ve featured on the ward a couple of times now. He has smooth touch to much of the work he creates, whether it’s producing Liquid Drum n Bass or mixing some chilled soulful grooves Wesbeanz knows how to deliver music that’s all rich and velvety.

This remix however of ‘ Fasten Your Seatbelts ‘ by Pendulum and The Freestylers shows the more heavy hitting side of the Wesbeanz coin. There’s no relaxing to be done while this mayhem making Midtempo monster is being spun! It’s grimy and filthy at it’s peak resulting in some jaw dropping drops! Immense work from Mr Beanz!

Syv have made some gorgeous sounding Deep House/Garage tracks which have been very well received, ‘Knockin’ however is a much darker number with a strong breaks influence, not a million miles away from say the Stanton Warriors with a nice stepping beat and subs that will make the floor seriously rumble, phat!!!!
