Calvin Harris & Example - We'll Be Coming Back (KillSonik Remix)

After the original was made Zane Lowe's Hottest Record In The World last week, Skream & Benga this weekend gave the KillSonik remix of Calvin Harris & Example's new single its first ever play. Example is an expert when it comes to putting together remix packages, and it seems as though alongside Calvin, he is now a part of one of the best remixes of 2012 so far. Massive.

XO Man - Really Mind

Set to be released tomorrow, 'Really Mind' is my favourite track from XO Man's debut EP 'Unwrap The Club'. The track has an infectious vocal, tight production and witty lyrics - all three of which are knotted together by XO's incredibly unique flow, and are evident throughout the EP. Drawing on his many musical backgrounds/influences, including Grime, Reggae, Dancehall & Dubstep, it seems as though the 6"10 man mountain has found a winning formula for making top quality Rap music for the club. Big tune - 'Quag' video on the way soon.

Mr. Ho - Mothra

'Mothra' is my favourite track from Mr. Ho's new two-track EP, which is the latest release on German-based label Klasse Recordings. One of the most consistent House labels around come through with another EP full of smooth and soulful grooves. Sick tune, pick it up HERE.

Saint Petersburg Disco Spin Club & Lipelis - I Need It (Lovebirds Mix)

German producer Lovebirds puts his own unique funky House touch to the new single from Saint Petersburg Disco Spin Club & Lipelis. Original is lovely, but Lovebirds is without doubt one of my favourite Electronic acts and adds another classic sounding production to his incredible back catalogue. Support.

Jamie Lewis - Without You (Feat. Marc Evans) (Master Mix)

Featuring the wonderful Marc Evans on vocals, here is the new single from producer Jamie Lewis. Love the chords and the classic House style, but its Marc's vocals that takes the track up to the next level. Summer time is definitely on the way. Buy HERE.

Usher - Hot Thing (Feat. A$AP Rocky) (Prod. The Neptunes)

After bringing you the Pharrell-featuring 'Twisted' earlier today, here is another cut from Usher's forthcoming album 'Looking For Myself', which features A$AP Rocky and production from Pharrell & Chad Hugo. Not a massive fan of A$AP, but he sounds sick over this, and if he goes down the right route with the beats, he could bring out a debut album that will surprise me.

Kelan Philip Cohran & The Hypnotic Brass Ensemble - Roust About x Stateville

Moving away from their usual Hip-Hop/Funk sound, here are my two favourite tracks from The Hypnotic Brass Ensemble's new collaborative album with Kelan Philip Cohran. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the HBE, they are a Chicago-based band featuring a drummer and eight brothers on assorted horns (trumpets, trombones, bari horn and sousaphone). Cohran is their octogenarian father, and is an important figure in music history, having played trumpet for Sun Ra, mentored Earth Wind & Fire and travelled the world in search of musical and spiritual enlightenment. Together they have created something a bit different to what most HBE fans will be used to, but it's still hypnotic and uniquely refreshing. Support.
