I may well have missed something on the musical path I tread, but Electro Swing and Los Angeles is a not combination I’m very familiar with. Here to prove it all works is though is the dapper gent, Duke Skellington. He’s on a mission to make sure L.A, and the world, are swinging to his beat with styles that include Future Swing, Swing House, Electro Swing and Swing and Glitch and it’s the latter of those where we’re heading with this bloc rocking party piece ‘The Genie(3 Wishes)’. Stacks of fun n filth to be found here!

Download ‘The Genie(3 Wishes)’ here via The Artist Union.

Italian Disco supremo, Belabouche, has broken through the 6000 followers barrier on Soundcloud and justly deserved too. To say thanks for reaching that personnel landmark, he’s sending us fee music which comes on the shape of this groovin’ edit of ‘Notice Me’ by, Sandee. It’s deliciously deep and seducitve, but has plenty in the tank should you feel the need to strut your stuff and there’s a very good chance that’s gonna happen!

Kemper- Light The Funk (Jem Haynes Remix) [Premiere]

Throwback Thursday! #8 in our calendar sees me rewinding to over ten years ago. I think this is probably the third mixtape i ever made. It was the era of myspace and  i had it on my page for people to download and listen to. No Soundcloud then folks! I used a little site called mix.dj.

Back then I was only able to do about 4 demos a year due to the price of buying records. It got a lot of praise from my piers so I decided to send it into iDJ (now no longer in publication) for their Raw Talent Competition and it got featured! With so much encouragement I graduated from the bedroom to the club and got my first gig – as they say … the rest is history!

InYou Records marks a 20th release milestone with 19 tracks of definitive house music!!!

The opening beats of Definitive Vol. 1 come from Oskar Smaal with ‘XYZ’, a track with all the right ingredients, beats that BUMP, Techy/Detroit stabbage, a real heater. Blend Bold go for more of a UK bass house style with the squelchy ‘Wise Watts’

Gribzy ‘Swing 65′ goes in deep n’ dubby with strong oldskool house influences. Andrew Pave ‘Get Away’ gives another unique slant on the experimental Bass house style leaning towards warehouse techno. Oliver Jay gets his ‘Beast Mode’ on with a swirly track in the Defected/DFTD vein.

Justin Pak provides the ‘Source Code’ for a stripped back drum laden chunky groove.  James DX beats on some ‘Caveman Drums’ knocking out a trippy thumper. Gianluca Russo shows he’s got ‘F**king Soul’ with a tasty track in the Country Club Disco/Simma Black style.

Martin Hellfritzsch & Pentia ‘Break It Down’ with buzzing bass, scratchs and infamous vox for some nuclear heat. FAKE SELF get’s deep (deep, deep, aaaoooow!!!) with ‘Dib Dab’ for the late night jackers.

Not yet in the playlist below are further killer tracks from the likes of TAWE, KUTA, josh Pearce, Spraoi Santos, Blu Leopard, ENGELHART, Hot Mustard, Cass & James Zed. All dance floor killers, absolute no fillers. Get your protective gloves on and cop this heat from 8/12/16

Breaking the boundaries in #7  of our musical advent, we have our friend SD Outfit. This Christmas Cracker urges you to drop the winter blues, crack open the eggnog and dance around in the dark to some naughty beats! Crossing all kinds of genre boundaries, it is fresh, it is funky and tech-fueled.

For his Christmas wishlist ….”If I would ask Santa for anything, I’d love an original press of the Pump DJs’ bootleg of Foxy Moron (Salty Remix), not even the Plumps have a copy of it anymore, but I’m pretty sure Santa would be a Finger Lickin’ fan, so no doubt has it kicking about in his crates.”

Thanks SD – we think so too!!

Two tracks, the title track, additional track ‘Marked As Red’ and 2 BIG title track remixes are the components for this EP. ‘What Is Life’ is a bouncing rhythm deluxe with subtle stabs, a thoughtful spoken word vox and oldskool rave spinback samples plus the well known ‘Tear down the place’ vocal known to fans of DJ Slipmatt’s seminal ‘SMD Vol One’.

As for the remixes, Luca Secco & Craftkind add in some extra rave vocals and give ‘What Is Life’ a tough, funky makeover. Matteo Rosolare & Jojo Angel explore darker avenues with their remix, allowing for plenty of space between the eerie keys and bringing a feel of intensity, In closing, we have a real bonus with US style grooves and deep drops of ‘Marked As Red’. Premium grade Tech House goodness from the Dusty Grooves imprint.
