Beat That Bird


I realize that this is ridiculously late, but wow, Justin Martin and Claude Von Stroke, together on one track. The result is pure dirty beats and quirky accents that make this an instant dance floor banger. I got the Claude Von Stroke EP last night, what genius. Keep an eye out for these two

Make The World Go Round


Well I've never really been a big fan of Busta Rhymes, but this really surprised me. Estelle's lends her vocal prowess to this banger, you'll find yourself waiting for her vocal interludes, and bumping your head ridiculously. I'll admit i don't know who the remix-er is but what a great job! Enjoy

The sound of the Underground


This track has been playing in my head the whole time i was studying for exams, what a beauty. The minimalist beat and romantic embellishments make this a track worth playing over and over again. Lie down, pour yourself a drink and enjoy the sounds of Iron Curtis.

Galactik Knights


It is said that those who cannot do, teach. Well since i can't produce great house music, as it is not my talent, i prefer to educate people about the many wonders of this genre. One sub-genre that has captured my interest lately is that of disco. The perfect prescription for a dull or unhappy moment. Disco epitomises happiness and bubblegum love ha ha. Galactik Knights seem to understand this all too well, judging by their offerings to the House gods. Jam out Kids. The Kids Want Deadbeat Disco

Dog days are Over


This band has to be one of my great finds of the year, the leads voice is so intensely piercing and moving. This song is the perfect pick me up for those moments when life is a tad heavy, the vocals are honest and true, while the delivery forces you to get up and shed the doom and gloom. Check out Florence and the Machine, you wont regret it.

Pursuit of Happiness


I'm really excited to be blogging about this collaboration, because it's probably the best thing i've heard all year in terms of mainstream music. Kid Cudi , Ratatat (On Production) and MGMT, oh my soul. This track works so well due to Cudi's crossover appeal, i think he's an indie rapper instead of just plain rapper, his vocals are hypnotising and captivating while the chorus draws you in unsuspectingly. Wait for the guitar solo and be amazed. Enjoy this cause I'll be jamming it for years to come.. I've included the video so you see how awesome the guitarist looks while doing his thing.

I Want You //////


The last time i heard anything mad sick from Azzido da Bass was during the days of the Crookers craze. Well it seems they're hiatus was warranted as they have returned full force with a new banger. This little number is a tad ravey but doesn't get annoyingly hard, its bouncy rave! Give it a listen..

Just a little Bit


I'm quite used to being proven wrong these days, so once again it came as no surprise when i found myself jamming out to Boy 8 Bit's remix of Florence and the Machines - Drumming noise. Wow the restraint is so apparent as he chooses rather to create simple minimalistic techno beats that make this a track worth having in any music lovers collection. Thanks to this remix i discovered the amazing Florence and the Machine, so good call all round. Enjoy

Stars Come Out


Well I'm sure you were all excited as i was to hear of Calvin Harris' new offering, Ready for the weekend. While i still believe that I created disco is better, i must say his production skills have been refined and no where is it more apparent than in my favourite track off the album, Stars Come Out. It's the perfect mix of easy catchy vocals and happy disco beats, that make you wanna dance till the sun comes out. Get it and judge for yourself
