A1 Bassline - Buoyancy

After a number of well received EPs on his own label over the past 12 months, A1 Bassline has just released his debut single on Claude Von Stroke's impeccable label, Dirtybird. I used to be a huge fan of A1, but have started to lose to touch with his material as I've slowly lost interest in Bassline/Electro music; however, this release is stunning and is definitely the sound that CVS is into at the minute. Hopefully this will widen his audience and is the direction that he is going to go with in the future, because it's a huge look. Get your copy HERE.

Late pass. Released two weeks ago on Numbers, here is the incredible B-side on Mosca's new single, Done Me Wrong. Can't believe I missed this one, and I've got to give a huge thank you to Ace for introducing it to me on 1Xtra earlier today - speed Garage at its very best. Get your copy HERE.

Styles P - Children (Feat. Pharoahe Monch)

Whether it be as a part of the triple threat The LOX, or as a solo artist, Styles P has always had razor sharp slick talk and has thus created a cult-like following by his countless fans within the Hip-Hop and Gangsta Rap community over the past 13 years. His new album, Master Of Ceremonies, is a solid release full of sick rhymes, dope production and big features - this Pharoahe Monch featuring and 'Jenny From The Block' sampling (which he featured on many years ago) is definitely one of the stand out tracks for me. Pre-order HERE, and get your copy on Tuesday.

Christian Mcbride Big Band - Brother Mister

My favourite track from Christian Mcbride's new album, The Good Feeling, which was released earlier this week. The bassist with the mostest hosts a superb aggregation of players including his own band mate Steve Wilson, multi-reedman Ron Blake, trumpeter Nicholas Payton and his close personal friend, vocalist Melissa Walker. McB arranges and conducts the project which has been a life-long dream of his. Proper old skool Jazz.

360 - Killer (12th Planet Remix)

12th Planet puts his ever unique and bass heavy twist on 360's new single, which was released last month on Universal. Something a bit different, but I like it, a lot.

Josh Kumra - Quickie (Miguel Cover)

After joining Wretch 32 on Jools Holland the other night (full show tonight on BBC2), Josh Kumra has unleashed this brilliant acoustic cover of the latest single and one of my favourite tracks from Miguel's debut album, All I Want Is You. Made me even more excited to hear a debut EP/album from Josh; he's got a ridiculous amount of talent, his voice is a breath of fresh air and just keeps getting better every time I see him.

Maverick Sabre - I Need (Brookes Brothers Remix)

The Brookes Brothers come through with an incredibly sick remix of Maverick Sabre's second single from his forthcoming debut album, Lonely Are The Brave, which is set to be released at the beginning of 2012. This remix will be available on the official EP, which drops November 6th on Mercury. So much love for Mr. Sabre.
