Catch Of The Week – Elves Got That Good Good

This weeks catch is lifted from, what at first looks, a rather bizarre compilation courtesy of the Grasslands Gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Brocksteady – One Sixty Three Mix

I’ve finally got round to recording a new one sixty mix, and as the first two seemed to go down well with people I thought I’d share it on here first.

New WVTVPVCHI Out Today on RAW Records!

Sick of trawling through a sea of sub-par Trap in a quest for the real stuff?

Catch Of The Week – Give Me Love

+verb (pronounced Adverb) has been putting out free tunes almost by the week for the last month or so and with each new upload growing on us, we thought it was about time we featured him. We felt his latest offering ‘Give Me Love’ was so good, it just had to be our next EXCLUSIVE COTW.

Dub Bait Mix 004 – Paris Love Story

Bass heavy and dripping with party-time intent, the latest instalment in our mix series sees Paris Love Story deliver a prime selection of fresh, cross-pollinated club sounds.  Taking in 26 tracks in just under an hour (from the likes of Karma Kid, Lucid, Branko, Obey City, Baauer and XXYYXX) it’s a playful trip through a space where deep club beats, gutter bass, hip-hop swagger and loved-up house collide.

Catch Of The Week – Harlem Shake

We tend to use Catch to highlight lesser-heard tracks that might – and really don’t deserve to – slip through the net, but this week we’ve gone against the grain (or should that be with the grain?) and chosen a tune already being lauded as a certified banger all over the web. Featured in Rustie’s BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, as well as mixes from Diplo and Flosstradamus – and finally released last Thursday through Mad Decent’s free download off-shoot Jeffrees - heavy tune is heavy/credit where credit’s due etc, and this week has undeniably been owned by ‘Harlem Shake’.

WIZRD Collective

It was via a collection of crisp House remixes from French producer Dehousy that we first stumbled across the WIZRD Collective late last year, and since then they’ve put out a steady trickle of great tracks – House and otherwise – in the process forming a clear but unblinkered style and ethos.  Centred around trappy, swaggy, drum-led sounds that never take themselves too seriously – from the tongue-in-cheek Hip-Hop of Miami’s Metro Zu to the sleazy percussive workouts of Melbourne’s Lucid - it seems that the key ingredient for the wizrd collective is the fun!
