It seems no great surprise that Om Unit and Machinedrum have crossed paths, in fact the only surprise really is that it took so long. With Om Unit being behind the fantastic Philip D Kick series of hardcore and jungle edit EP's in the UK and Machinedrum also reworking classic tracks from NYC, their upcoming collaboration makes a lot of sense. Reworkz EP [forthcoming Planet Mu]

Canada has produced several talented producers over the last couple of years whose sounds are fitting snuggly into the current electronic music movement here in the UK. Jacques Greene, Bwana and Kevin McPhee to name a few. Here at Hush House we think that the next name to be added to this ever growing list is Adam Hodgins. All of the tracks on Hodgins' soundcloud are of a consistently high

We are always a bit wary that we don't give away enough free music these days, so here's a little something to make it up to you! Mak & Pasteman, one of the most prolific production duos, have put the biggest of all dancefloor twists on Tyga's 'Rack City'. They keep the original bassline groove but understandably up the tempo and add those signature drum patterns, making this one an absolute

Since 2005 the Bristol based imprint Tectonic Recordings has been putting out a stream of consistently forward thinking bass music. Head honcho Pinch has curated a catalogue of releases which draw on Techno, Middle Eastern sound palettes and healthy doses of dark, sub-focused Dubstep. The two latest LP releases by Author and Pursuit Grooves have respectively blended Jazz and Hip-Hop elements into

Paul Rose goes by many aliases when it comes to making music but it is under his Scuba moniker that he has done the majority of his work. During his time as head of the great label that is Hotflush Recordings there have been many Scuba releases and remixes that have come out to great acclaim. It is on his two LP's, A Mutual Antipathy and Triangulation, where you really hear what Rose is trying

Today we welcome something a little special. Deetron, a superior producer and DJ in the House/Techno scene, and a name that has been firmly fixed in our memory since the release of 'Starblazer' back in June last year, has answered some questions ahead of his performance at Flux on Wednesday 22 February at Mint Warehouse. Deetron, you've just embarked on your world tour. How has it been so farʔ

Manchester's Alex Coulton is ready to deliver the tenth release on the increasingly interesting Idle Hands imprint. It will be the follow up to his EP on All Caps, which we featured last year.Representations - Alex Coulton [All Caps] Coulton makes a clear progression from 'Representations', taking things in a significantly moodier direction. 'Candy Flip' is a little punchier and frantic,

Ever wonder what happened to the darker, harder roots of UK Funky? Wonder no more. Sheffield's own Beneath (aka Ben Walker) is taking the genre back and developing that sound into 2012, giving you tracks that sound like Digital Mystikz and Objekt smashed together. Focusing more on rhythm, this more beat-driven style really does distinguish itself from the more mainstream, House-based club

With releases on Delsin, Styrax Leaves and Music Man, the behind the mask has had huge success in mainland Europe. Apart from living hin Germany not much else is known about who Redshape is, as he wears the mask even at live dates, however his music speaks for itself. His hard hitting techno vibes have graced many a dancefloor and mixtape over the last few years and 2012 sees his first release

18 year-old producer Charlie Banks stepped out with a huge debut EP last week, more than justifying the buzz that follows him. As well as making beats, Charlie also DJs and runs his own very successful night in Bournemouth called Hit The Deck. Charlie Banks - Saying What [Dirt Crew Recordings] The Saying What EP, released by Dirt Crew, features three fresh tracks by Charlie plus two

Jesper Ryom first caught our eye during a late-night YouTube session when we stumbled upon the brilliant 'Nature Boy' from last year. We were curious of how such a talent had slipped completely under the radar for us, and wanted to know more about this young Danish talent. We asked if he'd like to record a mix for us and answer a few questions, and being the lovely fella he is, he said "ja" (

One of the artists that we've been keeping a close watch on for the last 9 months or so is Kris Wadsworth. We first stumbled across this beat making magician when his Lime & Pink EP really caught our ears' attention. It doesn't come as a surprise that it now turns out he's been putting tunes out (on vinyl) for 10 years. Get your ears round this mix, it's all his own productions/remixes and if

Demolition Man appeared on limited pink vinyl at the end of last year but it is the latest release to appear digitally from the guys at Ramp for quite some time. Featuring the talents of Gerry Read and Canadian newcomer Kevin McPhee, this premium slice of bass heavy, dark and dirty Tech House really hits the dance floor hard. With a healthy splash of piano stabs and moody vocals to top the

Incase you've been away, Hinge Finger is a new and promising label run by Joy Orbison and Will Bankhead. Hinge Fingers arrival on the scene was anything but conspicuous. Which is why our introducing feature on the label was so brief! One inspired mix from Orbison uploaded on to The Trilogy Tapes soundcloud last December was all we had to go on. Those of you that were paying attention during the

We're sure most of you have never heard of 22-year-old Londoner, Boxwork. However, after stumbling onto his Soundcloud recently we think that this year that is sure to change. Influenced heavily by Jazz and Funk, Boxwork predominantly produced Hip-Hop up until last year. However, his attention was caught by artists like Ramadanman and Blawan which really shifted the focus to making some Bass

The latest in our Leeds local series is no newcomer to the music scene having already constructed a very popular previous project. This time he's solo and using his everyday name, James Welsh. Alongside his day job of working in a studio in Sheffield, James has turned his production skills to a stripped down, slowed down, version of House, sometimes even straying into the realms of Disco.
