Blog: Best Foot Forward

Jaw on the floor… ♥

"Banger".

Well, well, well, this is a very DFA-esque remix of Justice. I mean that with the best possible intentions.

Hairs on the back of the neck… Why was this never released on vinyl?

Solid chuggy offering from Late Night Tuff Guy kicking off from a foundation laid by SOS Band. Oof!

"Just keep on keepin' on"

Great Xmas mix from the chaps over at Wonderful Sound . Full of festive cheer. So much so, I've got a craving for a mince pie and a glass of sherry.

A new Winter Mix just dropped from TukTuk . Your man Neil Diablo on mix duty once again, and as ever sounding bang on form. Tracks included by Harvey's new 'act' Locosollus, ex buzzcocks man Pete Shelley, and a bit of classic Italo from G.A.N.G. Head on over to TukTuk's soundcloud for a full tracklisting.

"Can you do that to a classic?" Pete Tong asks… Leo Zero can.

This just played on the oh-so-ace-and-oh-so-hipster @NTSLive . Hip hop how it should be .

Hipster Brooklynites? Check. Funky bassline? Check. Slightly submissive sexy breathy vocals? You know it. Boom. Turned onto this bad boy by @ben_hauksson - mad props.

Re-edits are pretty boring. This one isn't. Released on C.O.M.B.i Records back in 2008, this is Eric Duncan let loose on the Village People track, '5 O'clock in the morning'.

Loving this. Madlib with Freddie Gibbs, part of a new LP coming in 2012. Following the Madlib longplayer collaboration hotstreak - Jaylib, Madvillain, now this. Excited!

Stressful day? And relax…

Big boogie business mixed by Francois K. Well into this.

Big big big sounds from Vaggio, featuring a little bit of "Let No Man Put Asunder", released Josh Wink's Ovum. What a fucking break. Close your eyes, imagine a big room, and let those hairs on the back of your neck step right up.

Another one from Japan, this time from Kenji Takimi , Crue-l Grand Orchestra main man - and Crue-l Records head honcho, I think (?). Anyway, BIG house track from the late 90's; been played to death over the years hence the crackly recording.

You must have seen this on a bunch of blogs already but it's too good not to post here too. The follow up to last year's Look Right Through , here's Storm Queen's (Morgan Geist to his mum) latest. Love this.

It's the weekend.; let your hair down with a bit of 80's hi-NRG disco from Roni Griffith. Big shout to Bobby Orlando on this one.
