Major Lazer - Bruk Out (Foamo Remix)

Just finished work and unfortunately couldn't make it to Kill Em All in Brighton tonight with Riton and Solo, but I do come home however to a new remix from 21 year old Kye aka Foamo, of Major Lazer's Bruk Out. Foamo keeps the catchy melody from the original and expands on it by bringing his own notorious bassline sound to the table and keeping the vocals that made the original so good.

Bart B More - Romane EP

With a successful year already under its belt Sound Pellegrino delivers another outstanding release this time from Dutch producer Bart B More. Take an accordion sample, pitch it up and down, throw in some solid world beat percussions and you've got Romane; Sound Pellegrino prooving again that "Less Is More". However one thing that shouldn't go unnoticed are the remixes for this EP. Sound Pellegrino have really worked hard and put together a set of remarkable remixes from Gucci Vump, Para One, French Fries & Bambounou and Rubix with the Gucci Vump being my undeniable favourite. Mad props on the artwork again. Best covers around by far.

Dállman's "Sorry The Cards Late" Valentine Mix

I had meant to finish this yesterday on Valentine's Day but alas my internet left me for the evening. Didn't even have that for Valentine's Day but anyway here's my latest mix the day after, hence the being late title pun, offering a different approach to my usual output. Starting off with some 80's synth pop, dreamy vocals before leading onto some more modern remakes, before ending on an all time classic with a bit of extra punch. I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed making this mix and hope you enjoy it too. Excuse some of the dud transitions.

You Got The Love For Some Mixtapes (Part 1)

With Valentines tommorow I thought I'd treat you to a couple of mixtapes which some artists have recently conjured up, swaying from their usual style and digging deep into those crates to bring a whole load of smooth and midnight loving jams to get you and your other half into that mood. If your single this Valentines, like myself these are some chilled out, feel good sets that will hopefully make your Valentines day a little bit more exciting.

First up is a mix from Breakbot who is the newest addition to Busy P's Ed Banger Records, famous for signings such as Justice, DJ Mehdi, SebastiAn and Feadz to name a few. His debut EP "Baby I'm Yours" is a soothing mix of electro and 80's funk with some catchy, indulgent lyrics from Irfane from Outlines. Jesus of the dance world Siruismo and La Funk Mob adop their remix gloves for some more funky basslines.

This leads us nicely on to this special mixtape he's done for Dazed. Some real charmers in this.

Heres his Valetine mix he did for MixClouds Valetine Mix Special which you can download HERE.

Month Of Love : Valentine Mix 2010 by Oneman on Mixcloud

Thats it for today but I'll be back tommorow for Part 2 with some more mixes for a Valetines Day Special.

L S Mitchell

Another producer who I'm hoping will burst onto the scene in 2010 is a young producer hailing from Jersey called L S Mitchell. With a string of official releases out on RuNT and Freek Records and some killer bootlegs of Daft Punk and Justice doing the rounds around the blogs its safe to say this young lad is on his way up. He' s recently finished a brand new track called Empire which he describes himself as mixture of Lazy Jays, Float My Boat and Hot City's, No More which is no bad thing. Definitely worth your time. Give him a shout on his Soundcloud/Twitter. I'm sure he'd appreciate it.
