FEATURECAST 's EP, Around the Block , was released exclusively on beatport last week. Here though we have a choice cut from it - a ghetto-funked ragtime tune with some tight rhymes from C. Reid. Catch the download in the player below. The entire EP is available on vinyl from JALÉPENO RECORDS as of April 2, but you can preorder here . Watch for a full album due later this summer. Oh, and here's a great video of the title track. [...]
A.SKILLZ and NICK THAYER need no introduction and I'm hoping Foreigner doesn't either. Here then, you have a bass-heavy monster of a bootleg that's been online for an hour and already has nearly 1000 downloads (at the time of writing). Why don't you be next? A.Skillz has a few more dates remaining on his Canadian tour. You should go - hands down one of the best djs I've ever seen. He's magical with turntables. Oh, and there's an interview with Nick Thayer coming [...]
The camp over at BOMBASTIC JAM have been busy lately. The four-track EP, to be expected I suppose is a mid tempo funk-and-bass-filled masterpiece from the icon label's newest talent, NYNFUS CORPORATION . Rising out of Budapest the threesome have made a name for themselves in the global ghetto funk scene and this release should see them wobbling to the top. I know you want the whole thing (and not these short [...]
It's amazing how time gets away. It's my last night in Puerto Vallarta after nearly two weeks of a family vacation. Internet access has been hit and miss despite the wifi in the condo we're staying in. That's the long way of saying I've missed two revamps from ELITE FORCE . Let's get down to it then. The first (which is the third in the series of free downloads) turns the underlying darkness of Muse into a bass heavy monster. [...]
Super funky number from DC's ALL GOOD FUNK ALLIANCE . It's in celebration of both their Rhythm & FX tour and release. If you missed the release, catch it here .

This tune is absolutely bonkers! Go get it and start following DJ SOL RISING immediately. ++++++++++ Links: djsolrising.com DJ Sol Rising on SoundCloud DJ Sol Rising on twitter DJ Sol Rising on facebook
I've been a fan of DJ EARWORM for eons it seems. His mashups are always tight and this is just another example of his technical perfection. For real, if you never heard any of the originals in this mashup, you would think this was a proper release. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =c8o23Ko_69s Download at djearworm.com . ++++++++++ Links: djearworm.com DJ Earworm on twitter DJ Earworm on facebook
Here's something from seasoned dj/producer VANDAL for just about any jock. The release is nearly impossible to define, covering breaks and electro with some techy deep house flair. Peep the tunes below then grab your favourite from beatport . If you weren't in the know, Vandal also produces under the alter ego, Captain Magic. This one's a bit of a stomper. ++++++++++ Links: vandalmademedoit.com Vandal on SoundCloud [...]
REVOLVR sent us his latest bootleg and it's a bit of a stomper. The mashup itself is pretty basic. It's undeniable though, that this would slaughter just about any dancefloor and it's due to the moombah breakdown. The cut had me searching for a moombahton remix of "Internet Friends" since I wasn't sure if Revolvr tweaked it himself or if there was something out there that was used. A few things came up but the EBORALL remix stood out for a few reasons. [...]
On Friday March 9th FORT KNOX FIVE , Thunderball, and All Good Funk Alliance embark on a 3 week tour. To celebrate the tour, Fort Knox Five is offering a free download of an exclusive DC's Finest bootleg from back in the day. "Monday's Feelgood" is a Fort Knox Five Remint with elements of the Happy Mondays and Gorillaz. Check it below. Free download Fort Knox Recordings presents "RHYTHM & [...]
The blunted trio better known as LANCE HERBSTRONG released their second album, Meth Breakfast , a minute ago. Their third single baths Cary Ann Hearst's tune from True Blood in bass, then splash a bit of AC/DC and Led Zepplin for some added pep. It's below, and by all accounts is a tune you need. More importantly, you need to hear this played loudly. The original tune is a bit sombre, and well twangy. The Herbstrong boys cook the rawness of the it into a meaty dish thick enough to fill [...]
We don't post mixtapes that often, but this latest from BASEMENT FREAKS is too good to pass up. I was hooked from the opening cut. It showcases a tonne of tunes from the BOMBASTIC RECORDS camp, which is headed by Mr. Freaks himself. The label is home to some Manalogue favourites - many of which appear on this mixtape so make to check the links below. ++++++++++ Basement Freaks Links: basementfreaks.net Basement Freaks [...]
The Manalogue jury is still out, deciding what we think of LANA DEL REY . Is she an indie-minded songstress or a guilty of being a manufactured pop star with millions in marketing dollars behind her? She's talented but the hype behind her was generated by HOW her label sculpted her image and told people to think of her. Regardless, this official remix from KRIS MENACE is gonna light up dancefloors like fireworks on the 4th of July - especially in those spring break-esque party towns. It's [...]
A few weeks back we gave away a tune from DC's ALL GOOD FUNK ALLIANCE . We told you they were about to drop an EP and well, that short player was let loose digitally via a beatport exclusive. Here then are those four tunes in question, including a free remix from another Manalogue favourite, FUNKANOMICS . In short, AGFA churn out three disco-ish nu funk tunes, while Funkanomics ghetto-ize the title track. Here are four party cuts that'll beat the pepperoni off of any meat tray. [...]
I'm in Mexico right now with my wife and kids. I won't lie, I'm enjoying the sun, salty water, and more than a few cervezas. Maybe it's the setting, but this new one from JALAPENO RECORDS really speaks to me. Wait, that's complete bullcrap - I love almost everything on this label - I just needed some lame segue and Mexico and jalapenos seemed to do the trick for now. Here's another confession - FEATURECAST has been near the top of my favourite producers list for [...]
Like whoa! The new long player from KRAFTY KUTS is all fire. As expected, the album explores breakbeat but the diversity in the spectrum still comes as a shock. Every tune in Let's Ride is an absolute must have. Don't believe me, check out the album mini mix. Oh, and over the past few weeks, Mr. Kuts has shared some exclusive bootlegs and personal edits of his. They've been time-limited so if you're into that thing and don't want to miss out make sure to click [...]
Event Preview – Chris Liebing Presents: CLR London 2012 Saturday March 3, 2012 – The Hub Studios When CLR first announced their 2012 London Warehouse party back in December, I knew it was an event that could not be missed. At that point, the lineup was simply Chris Liebing "and friends" with a "secret London warehouse location" which on its own is enough to excite any techno lover. This information has since been released, and there has been no disappointment whatsoever. Of course, label boss Liebing will perform one of his [...]
