Yesterday was Jill Scott’s birthday, and today we get the lead single from her upcoming album, The Light of The Sun. Featuring her fellow Philadelphia native, this is one of the best Soul tracks I’ve heard for a very long time.

Here is Soul Clap’s remix of Locussolus’s ‘Next To You’, which can be found on their collaborative mixtape for DJ Kicks, which they have put together with their record label owners and good friends, Wolf + Lamb. The four DJs behind this mix (Wolf + Lamb’s Gadi Mizrahi and Zev Eisenberg, Soul Clap’s Cnyce and Elyte) recognised it as an opportunity to offer a pretty definitive look at their style. On a basic level, these guys make slow-burning, steamy house music but round it out with elements from hip-hop, R&B, and vintage pop - breakbeats, rave-y vocal snatches, and funk samples split time with warm, undulating synth and bass. Beautiful stuff, which is available for you to buy now.

Jesse Rose has invited fellow creatures of the nights Catz n Dogz along with Martin Dawson, Round Table Knights and Mason as an all-star remix cast on his non-stop musical mission. Here is my favourite from the 3 track EP, which comes courtesy of C&D and Martin Dawson. Groovy.

Some new Mobb Deep, which is once again produced by Alchemist, and features Mr. NaSir Jones. Feels like we’ve gone back to ‘94 on this one. Prodigy & Havoc mean business again.
