TALK



Saving the best till last. This newcomer is making waves in the dub industry, 'Holy Mountain' packs a deathly dark drop that comes out of nowhere. Skittering bass and the odd tropical drum sample make this a super current release that keeps a unique edge.

Talk - Holy Mountain

PRINCE CLUB



This ones a grower. With support from the likes of Mowgli, these two young producers are attracting some serious attention.

Prince Club - Love Jackson

TEETH




Championing Dreamtrak's remix of 'See Spaces', swirling orchestra samples make for very delightful listening. However, Dolby Anol's stripped back, vocal enhancing edit has to be the favourite with it's irresistibly funky beat.

LIGHT YEAR



I'm completely won over by any track with sax samples, but the sax sample from Pulp Fiction?!?! Why hasn't this happened before.

Light Year - Marcellus

THE CHAIN GANG OF 1974



This track is seriously warped, but in the best possible way. Toadally Krossed Out's remix of 'Hold On' is innovative to say the least, and infectious doesn't come close. RIBBIT!

THE CRAYON FIELDS



The Crayon Fields are a four piece Australian band, keeping up the Oz reputation of delivering some of the world's best synth pop around, helped along dreamily on this remix by Opulent Sound.

SEI A


Sei A's 'Who Dares Wins' would be the perfect soundtrack to a trippy nightmare with it's ghostly vocals and dark whirring, winding bassline, but it's funky snares and bells keep you from screaming.

CLOUD NOTHINGS



Something completely out of the usual, but it's fun to break rules

Cloud Nothings - Understand It All

DRUMS OF DEATH



Kicking off with a bassline that SHOUTS that what's coming next is going to be brilliant, 'Won't Be Long' is the best sound to come from Drums of Death in a while. This track wouldn't have sounded out of place 10 years ago, but it sounds just as fresh now. Listen for yourselves..

Drums of Death - Won't Be Long

RUSS CHIMES & TONY SENGHORE




This track builds and builds until you give up guessing when it's going to drop, then it does and its nothing like you expect. Tony Senghore totally freshens up Russ Chimes' 'Targa' into a squeaking pitch shifting fidget-house extravaganza.

Russ Chimes - Targa (Tony Senghore Remix)

ART NOUVEAU



Art Nouveau were picked up recently after 'Miracle' caught the ears of Yolanda Be Cool, and thus it was released on their very own LP. You'll recognise the Fat Boy Slim sample, bounced around on a thumping tropical beat, determining a promising future for this French duo.

Art Nouveau - Miracle

DIDZ




Not much information floating around the interweb on this artist, but thanks to the Future Garage Forum we have 'Feelin Soul', and it comes packing some deeply penetrating garage beats.

Didz - Feelin Soul

DOC DANEEKA & GATTO VIOLA




Putting Wales on the map,  Doc Danneka & Gatto Viola's 'Backstabbin' Angie' is some seriously funky UK funk house with soulful garage vocals on the repeat to keep you grooving throughout.
