MANIK - Amber Knife

Bringing his funky Nu-Disco style to the table as ever, here is my favourite track from the new EP by Brookyln-based Deep House producer MANIK. Over the past 12 months this guy has rapidly become one of my favourite producers out there, and this new release is just another example as to why. Hell of a tune - dripping with coolness. Cop HERE.

Nicole Mitchell - Keep Moving (Manoo's Classic Mix)

Nicole Mitchell's new single gets some remix treatment from French-born Manoo, who turns it into a 90s sounding anthem, but manages to keep it fresh and relevant for the modern day dancefloors. This is wonderful - Nicole Mitchell has one of those voices that must be a dream for any House producer to work with. Buy HERE.

Dino Lenny & Hardrive - I Wanna Be Like Talking Heads

Italian DJ/producer Dino Lenny takes the bassline from the 1997 classic 'Psycho Killer' by Talking Heads and fuses it with Hardrive's House anthem 'Deep Inside', whilst putting his own stamp on it and adding some sick extra vocals. Lots of people try to rework classics, and usually fail, but this is perfectly executed and is on repeat here. There are also mixes of the prequel from Pirupa & Shadow Child. Can't get enough of this - another great release from Stricly Rhythm - pick up your copy HERE.

Knife Party - Rage Valley

As mentioned yesterday, it's not often than an artist gets two posts in short succession on here. But this is an overarching exception. After bringing you "Bonfire" a short while ago, here is the title track from their forthcoming Rage Valley EP, as premiered on Zane Lowe's show earlier tonight. It's the track that was originally entitled "F**k 'Em", but the final mastered version takes on this new name, but sounds very similar to the track they've been opening most of their sets with recently. Words don't describe how I feel about this track. Just LISTEN!

Knife Party - Bonfire

Dropped on Mistajam's 1Xtra show earlier tonight, here is (FINALLY!) the finished version of Knife Party's track "Bonfire", taken from their forthcoming Rage Valley EP, due out this Monday. Still can't quite get over how good these guys truly are, and this EPs gonna take it to the next level. Dillon Francis said earlier that "Bonfire makes me wanna wash my winky in a girls kitchen sinky" - me and you both Dillon, me and you both.

Dwele - What Profit

It seems like forever since R&B crooner Dwele dropped his last album 'W.ants W.orld W.omen' back in 2010, so the lead single from his fifth studio album couldn't really come at a better time. Sterotypically pure and soulful, Dwele is on fine form and has me excited for the new album, which he is currently working on in the studio. One of my favourite male vocalists of the 21st century - this is so dope.

Plan B - Lost My Way

After bringing you a live performance of this track on Jools Holland last week, here is the studio version of "Lost My Way", the next single from Plan B's third album iLL Manors, as dropped for the first time by Mistajam on 1Xtra tonight. It's a more emotional affair than the record's title track, but still retains that gritty, hard-hitting storytelling vibe. Seriously can't wait for the film and album to drop.
