One of my fave set of fellas AkaAkaRoar are always setting the seaside on fyre with cleverly futuristic clubnights and guests. Bringing supastars like James Blake, Nosaj Thing, Bok Bok and Ramadanman to Life in Brighton is a big thing and I'm always sending brainwavves of deep love over to them. We even featured Aka resident Ben White in Milk Teeth a while back when he crafted us a party mix before playing our party with Tomb Crew and Boog-a-loo Crew, remind yourself here . This week they are smashing it again at Life with one of my favourite [...]
Before we get started: it was compiled by me, meaning it's unofficial . I had the idea a few days ago: some artists are so hyped that every song of their album(s) is possibily remixed, so why not make an "alternative album" of it, with the same tracks in the same order, only remixed. And since hype and The xx go hand in hand, it was obvious what to start with. Some of the songs had very few remixes (i.e.: one or two), so if you don't like something it's not [...]
(photo credit: Nicolas Hance Mcelroy ) UK's DangerDan (Dan Brooks) put together this chilled out morning mix for your listening pleasure. Included with it is a deep bass remix of The XX by London's Ben White . Give the mix some proper attention, then head over to Dan's soundcloud page for more eargasms. "Not my usual style of mix! starts with some 2step stuff into some ambient and then ends with some joy division and radiohead, downbeat is definately the right word to [...]
Mr White and Vesper run a tight ship over at the Squeeky Bleeps blog. I've been watching it for a while now, and if you haven't, go check it out sharpish. They only post stuff they're allowed to, without letting the quality drop, and they have a new feature that points to some of the best nights in London. Oh, and their charts are always on a good tip. Ben's put together an exclusive mix for us, it's filled with some of the biggest tunes doing the rounds. It mainly [...]

After shaking our bones with an intensely large set at Milk Teeth live last week, Ben White created this exclusive mix for our blog. The whole night was SMASH, with Tomb Crew, Boogaloo Crew, Jon Curtis and Ben packing a megamega dance space all night. The snow and ice meant SHIT to the raving cru who crushed it. Ben is a steel coated bass soldier, this mix is like a king size Red Bull smoothie - nourishing, intense and fucking DELISH. Can I've a sip of that? Course Bruv!

From London to Ireland to Berlinnnnn! Some of the best Dj's and Producers around the g-l-o-b-e have had a hand in this one of a kind remix package. Niyi's 'Ameilia' was one of 2008's most original and raw tracks, listed on numerous 'Best of 20082 lists. DJ Wool (half of Indie Dance Band The Glass) treats us to an Electro Tech mix that will keep them dancing in to the early hours. Beloved Ben Mono has created a funk monster. Cobra Krames does it [...]
I want to take this opportunity to introduce myself as "the new black"!!! Every Thursday I will be bringing you not only the best & newest in exclusive, unreleased party materials, aka evy chunes, but I will also be including a mixtape to get your heart racing like Sparks. Without further ado I bring you NIYI's "Ameilia" remix package! For those of you unfamiliar with NIYI allow me to give you the rundown. He started the seminal club Gauche Chic which is said to have kick started the "New Rave" dressing up craze. He's cleared a dancefloor [...]
Here's a set of 5 remixes of NIyi's "Amelia". They're pretty diverse in style. To be honest I don't think that the original was the best remix material, but theres definetely some good stuff in here. I particularly like Ben White's "Aint No Man Mix". Rumor has it he's only 17. NIyi - Amelia (Ben Mono Remix) -> Ben Mono link NIyi - Amelia (Ben White's Aint No Man Mix) -> Ben White link [...]
