Mele

If there is one producer blazing through 2010 right now its my fellow Merseysider, 18 year old boy wonder Mele, who has just dropped a fresh mix for the brand new Kool Kids Podcast which races through House, Garage, Grime & Dubstep, and is full to the brim of freshness from himself and numerous others, as well as a couple of classics to boot.

Fresh from playing Mega Mega Mega in London alongside The Count & Sinden, Fake Blood, Redlight as well as many others, Mele is now putting the final touches to his new E.P which should be landing before the end of the year on Sinden's excellent new Grizzly imprint, which should include the incredible 'Mugged' which has been tearing up clubs for me all year.

Another tune to look out for is 'Trappin', which he sent me last week, and which impressed me all the more as it is a total diversion from what he has sent me in the past, and is a big mad wonky house esque type number (its really hard to describe!), and which I predict is going to be massive and which is already receiving massive support from the likes of Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990 amongst others.

Also, after filling in for me last minute back in May to warm up for The Scratch Perverts at Chibuku, he returns for a second time on October 2nd to play alongside Joy Orbison and Roska in Ink, amongst a whole host of other big names in other rooms (including a Boys Noize vs Erol Alkan set in The Theatre). The mix below should give anyone planning on going some indication of what to expect!
