Justice - New Lands (A-Trak x SebastiAn Remixes)

Two Electronic heavyweights, A-Trak & SebastiAn, come through with a remix each of the latest single to be lifted from Justice's sophmore album 'Audio, Video, Disco'. The original is one of my favourite tracks from the album and these two versions are much welcomed alternatives. Pre-order HERE.

J Dilla - Dillatroit (Feat. Supa Emcee, Nick Speed, Guilty Simpson) (Official Video)

Official visuals for the latest single to be lifted from J Dilla's posthumous album 'Rebirth Of Detroit', which was released today and is available HERE. A pretty cool album on the whole and it has that raw Jay Dee feel throughout, but nothing will bring him back and nothing will compare to his work whilst he was here with us. R.I.P. James Yancey.

Redlight - Lost In Your Love

Following on from the brilliant 'Get Out Of My Head', Redlight this weekend made a special delivery on Annie Mac's show in the form of his new single 'Lost In Your Love'. The track has a similar structure to that of his previous single and is no doubt going to get lots of love on the radio, and should hopefully do well in the charts. Summer-ey vibes.

D’Angelo x Questlove - Bonnaroo Performance 

Bonnaroo on Saturday night saw soul legend D'Angelo take to the stage alongside The Roots frontman Questlove (or ?uestlove if you insist on impossible pronounciations) for the former's first gig in the US for over a decade - but after a string of gigs over here in Europe, he seems as sharp as ever. If you didn't have the luck to be in attendance at the gig, the lovely folks over at Hypetrak have the entire 90 minute set streaming, including a rather wonderful cover of The Beatles' "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window". Just yes.

Disclosure - BBC Radio 1 Mini-Mix

Guy & Howard, better known as Disclosure, tonight came through with their new mini-mix for Annie Mac, which was packed full of Hip-Hop, Garage & House (and much more) classics, alongside some of their own material. Keep saying that if I was a producer, I would want to make music like these two are, and if I did a mini-mix, it would be guaranteed to sound like this. Disclosure can do no wrong in my eyes, and this is one of the best mini-mixes I've ever heard. Tune, after tune, after tune.
