Dabs - Subsidiary

'Subsidary' is the title track and my favourite track from Dabs' new EP, which is the latest release on Ant TC1's brilliant Leeds-based label, Dispatch Recordings. Aside from this, the Italian-born producer has drafted in Amoss to join forces on 'Stendhal', whilst Safire goes to work alongside Dabs on 'Time Carrier' to create a D&B grinder.

Rita Ora - R.I.P. (Feat. Tinie Tempah)

Remember back in 2010 when a Drake reference titled track called 'I'm Ready For You' leaked? Well, it turns out it was for Roc Nation's Rita Ora, and features her fellow London-born friend Tinie Tempah - the track is produced by Chase & Status and samples Nneka's 'Heartbeat'. What do you think?

Due to be released in March 2012, listen and learn after the jump.

Kill The Noise & Datsik - Lightspeed

Skrillex took to twitter today to announce the release of Kil The Noise & Datsik's new collaboration 'Lightspeed'. The track, the first collaboration to come from these two artists, is a heavy piece of Electro House with a tantalising build up and exciting drop that I can see setting off ravers all over the country.

Eyes & Ryan Keen - Tonight (Original x Remixes)

After countless remixes over the past two years from Samuel Cramer, better known as Eyes, the London-based producer is finally set to release his debut single 'Tonight', which features upcoming Folk singer/songwriter Ryan Keen. The laid-back Dubstep vibe works perfectly alongside Ryan's husky vocal tone, and creates a simply stunning track that can be compared to nothing else out there right now.

Nina Kraviz - Aus (Feat. King Aus On The Mic) x Turn On The Radio

There aren't many artists who you fancy as much as you love their music, but for me Nina Kraviz probably tops that category. The young Siberian producer yesterday released her self-titled debut album, and it's clear for all to see that she has come a very long way since her first standout releases on the likes of Cocoon & BPitch. Working with with Acid House and experimental off-beat rhythms, Kraviz has created a dark and enchanting masterpiece, which has lots of love and soul embedded from start to finish. Check out my two favourite tracks after the jump and get your copy HERE.

Be Inspired: The Life of Heavy D (Documentary)

After passing away on November 8th 2011, many artists have come together to pay tribute to Heavy D in a documentary entitled 'Be Inspired', which is taken from the late rapper's final tweet on the same day that he passed. The 40-minute documentary is an incredibly touching insight into the life of one of the nicest and most loved men in Hip-Hop, with words coming from Big Boi, Will Smith, Cee-Lo, Queen Latifah and many more. The film also includes coverage of his funeral in Mount Vernon, along with the original score by Jazz legend George Duke. Amazing.
