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!

Redlight

 
Had a little scout of the net this morning looking for a few new mixes to please my ears with, and was most pleased to find that the latest Fact Mag podcast has been mixed by one of Bristols finest, Redlight, the producer formerly known as Clipz.

I was fan of Clipz way back in 2003 when he released the amazing 'Showtime' Ep on Emcee Recordings which contained the amazing 'Cuban Links', and then on from his early releases on Full Cycle where throughout 2003 and 2004 he released some of the biggest Drum n Bass tunes of the time.

 I always thought in the years that followed Clipz got a lot of over the top criticism from some camps. Granted, I wasn't too big a fan at some of his later productions under the Clipz moniker, but some of the level of abuse on forums aimed at him was absurd, especially when considering some of the bona fida classics he had made in the genre, including the much overlooked and forgotten 'Saigon Killa' (no clips up on Youtube unfortunately!), and the tune I have posted below he released under his Humanoid guise entitled 'Tibetan Mist', which was a huge huge anthem a few years back in the North West of the UK (although strangely never really got played much round the rest of the country) after being released on New Line Recordings back in 2004.

Back to 2010 though, and the Clipz name is gone to be replaced by the new name Redlight, and with the name change came a huge change in genres too. Like DJ Zinc before him, Redlight has had no problem in settling in with the Dubstep/UK Funky/Whatever its called this week fraternity, and is already starting to amass a nice collection of bangers under his name, including the quite literally stupid 'Stupid', released a couple of weeks back on Digital Soundboy, a tune which has provoked confused but elated bass faces every time I have dropped it.

Redlights mix for Fact Mag is chock full of exclusives, unreleased bits and exclusive Redlight specials of some major tunes from the past few months, and also includes the ridiculously big 'MDMA', which I am sure is well on its way to becoming something of an anthem. If you have been a fan of Clipz in the past, or even a hater, and you don't know what he is up to now, get onto this right away, as in short, he is fucking KILLING IT.

Juke

So, yet another strange genre name has emerged in the past few months, with a sound developing from the streets of Chicago (the original birthplace of that little known genre named House Music) which goes by the name of 'Juke'.

By all accounts, Juke isn't anything particulary new and has been around and happening for a good few years now over the pond, but it has now started to gain a lot more attention since the release of the anthemic Addison Groove track 'Footcrab', which was released last month on Loefah's incredible Swamp81 label.



Addison Groove is an alias of the well known 'Dubstep' (if you can put what he does under that term) producer Headhunter, who thanks to a huge number of amazingly high quality releases over the last few years has become a major name in bass driven music circles, and is someone who has been heavily championing the Juke sound, playing a set of Juke in a a packed room 2 of Fabric recently, showing his love of the scene through a mix that was uploaded last December which you can download below. and of course producing his own take on the sound in the aforementioned release.

Headhunter - Juke Mix 2009 (Mediafire)

So what exactly does Juke sound like? The only way I can think of describing it is as a bastardized high tempo (you can mix Drum n Bass into some of it) version of Baltimore Booty Techno, with a big emphasis on pitching up and pitching down vocal samples, along with obvious influences from both Dubstep, Breaks, Hip Hop and Garage.

To be honest, its pretty fucking mental, and the early detractors of the sound immediately point out its very low production standards, which can not be overlooked, and some tracks do sound like they have been put together in 5 minutes in Music 2000 on the Playstation 1, a attribute that adds to the charm of the music for me though, as its obviously not a genre that takes itself super seriously, and seems more focused on getting a party started than pleasing those technical minded chin stroking types.

The genre seemingly has its very own dance craze going on in Chicago, with a whole host of videos on Youtube showing gangs having super paced dance off's and battles with each other in communtiy centres and halls, an example of which you can see below.

Probably the best mix I have found on the internet to introduce people to the sound is by a guy named Bare Bones, who is obviously highly clued up about the genre, a fact proven by the tunes he has included on this mix which are apparently like Juke gold dust. Its definitely not a mix for the deep music loving chin scratchers out there and does contain A LOT of silliness!

This sound will no doubt be a little bit too crazy for some, and I admit I certainly cant see Juke becoming a major worldwide scene with an impact like that previous Chicago export House music had on the world, but its definitely an interesting development and turn off in the hardcore continuum, and if its influence helps rub off on producers and helps inspire them to make tracks like 'Footcrab' and this little beauty below by a producer name Distal, then long may it continue.

Roska Roska Roska....

This week saw the release of one of the most eagerly anticipated albums of the year, as Roska, one of the most talked about and hyped up producers of the past 12 months released his debut album on Rinse.

Make no mistake, Roska is one of the most exciting talents in the UK Dance Music scene at present, and is seen as somewhat of a godfather of the UK Funky scene whilst also retaining close links with both Dubstep and straight up House, and after a bombardment of incredible releases and remixes the past few months has seen his star rise and rise, culminating in the release of his debut self titled album.

I have to be totally honest and admit that some of the vocal tracks on the album I am not a major fan of, although this is down to personal preference as I am never really a fan of tracks with 'smooth' female vocals. The production value on these tracks however are still very high and I can see the tracks working on the dance floor, especially with the females.

For me, its Roska's instrumentals which excite me the most, and I think that he is in a different league when it comes to the percussion elements of his tracks, and I can't express in words how much I love the track below entitled 'Squark'.

With the release of the album and all the subsequent press he is receiving Roska's schedule is manic at the moment with US tours, festival appearances, his weekly radio show on Rinse and much more all keeping him remarkably busy, and his rise to fame shows no sign of slowing down.

To introduce you to Roska's sound and what he is all about there is a mix below to download taken from the Disko 404 podcast, packed full of his own productions, remixes and more.

Deadboy

Every now and again an artist or producer seems to come from nowhere and absolutely knock you senseless, coming with a sound that is like heaven for your earlobes, evoking senses in your musical taste that you may have never knwon you had. Towards the end of 2009 a producer came to my attention who's sound is both strikingly original and yet carries a huge sense of familiarity.

Not much is known about Deadboy other than he's young, he's from South East London, and that he's making some of the most heart wrenchingly beautiful music thrown under the Dubstep/Garage/UK Funky banner since the master of sadness Burial.

His debut release on Well Rounded contained one of the most hyped up tunes of the year, the stunning 'U Cheated', as well as my personal favourite track of his, the unbelievably haunting 'Heartbreaker'. The most striking thing to me about the whole release is that it doesn't sound exceptionally well mixed down, which only seems to add to the warmness and the atmosphere of the tracks.

Deadboys next output is the stunning 'If U Want Me', a track which sounds like Old Skool Rave, Garage, House, Broken Beat and Pop all having a sleepover at Dubsteps place, and which is soon to be released on a special one sided 12" on the new look Numbers imprint, having been a staple track on a huge amount of mixes over the last few months for those DJ's lucky to have an advanced copy, including being the opening track on one of THE mixes of 2009, Modeselektor's amazing Resident Advisor podcast.

The quite frankly brilliant Fact Magazine podcasts started 2010 with a mix from Deadboy, and unsurprisingly, its nothing less than stupidly breath taking, and is a real tour de force through a slew of genres, featuring tracks from Martyn, Julio Bashmore, El-B, Joy Orbison, a stone cold Garage classic from Scott Garcia and even Theo Parrish, as well as all the productions from Deadboy himself that have catapulted him into the spotlight. Do not sleep on this, its just absolutely fucking glorious.

Hot City

Another producer to rant on about this post, and yet another one who's sound is difficult to lump into one specific category, fusing a whole host of influences from a plethora of scenes to create something that sounds incredibly fresh.

Hot City is another producer to have emerged from the huge melting pot that is London 2010, and in what seems to be becoming a more popular trait, is a producer with a sense of mystery around him. In theory, Hot City essentially makes House Music, but there is so much more going on with his sound its difficult to tie him down in that genre.

One immediately noticeable production trait of Hot City is the exquisiteness of his vocal cut's that he uses, at times employing them along with his incredibly catchy synth lines to create what sounds like the perfect merging of jackin Chicago House, skippy 2-Step & Garage and mad as you like Old Skool Rave, whilst keeping a close tie to the post Dubstep movement, all done with a sprinkling of that most vital ingredient, fun (there's even a track which has what sounds suspiciously like a Donk in it!).

Its a really hard sound to explain without sounding too much like a rambling tit, so your best off just listening to the stunning mix Hot City did recently for the XLR8R Podcast, packed full of fresh exclusives. Be careful listening to it in public though, it took all my strength to stop myself jumping up and dancing like a tit whilst listening to it on the bus the other day.

Seiji

A producer and DJ up now, who rather ashamedly I had never heard of up until a couple of weeks back, this fact made worse when I found out his history and past projects and realised that he's a bit of a legend and one hell of a prolific producer.

Ove the years Seiji has sprinkled his production magic on everything from RnB to Dancehall with his own unique style and was a major purveyor and pioneer of the Broken Beat scene, a scene which had undoubtedly had a huge influence on some of the fresh new sounds to be pouring out of the capital right now.

Seiji is also a driving force behind the much adored Bugz In The Attic crew, and was key to the the formation of the project, enjoying phenomenal success over the years with the project thanks to tracks like this:-

The reason why Seiji has finally come to my attention is thanks yet again to the wonderful Fact Magazine podcasts which he was in control of a couple of weeks back, plucking out a set which did that rare but lovely thing of absolutely blowing me away upon the very first listen.

Seiji seems to be able to skip effortlessly through a whole range of genres such as House, Dubstep, Garage, UK Funky and Hip Hop with a seam and flow that is deadly, moving between tempos constantly, at one point in this mix even employing an Old Skool release on Moving Shadow recordings from 1993 to devastating effect.

29. Seiji – I Can’t Let It Go [Seijigoodies]

The mix has been on constant rotation on my Ipod and a few of the tracks I just had to have, and going over the tracklist it became apparent that some of the best tunes in the mix were by Seiji himself. So imagine how happy I was after a bit of investigation and a visit to his website that a few of these tunes he had already given away for free, in fact there's a pretty obscene amount of free tracks on his site when you consider the quality of them.

I have posted my favorite tune I downloaded from there (although its the remix of Gorillaz that is my favorite track by him, its just not up on the site), and I recommend you go have a peek over there yourself as its definitely a site worth your attention - www.seiji.co.uk

Daniel Steinberg

Having only really started a love affair with House Music properly in the past 3/4 years, and with having a mountain of new music to catch up with from various other genres, it can sometimes be hard for me to keep up with all that is going on in what is probably the most popular Dance Music genre on the planet.

I do try my best to keep up to date with things and now and again find a producer or artist that reaffirms my disappointment in not starting my love affair with the genre earlier, producers like Daniel Steinberg.

I can't really give too much information on Steinberg's history or biography as he seems to be one of those producers who is much more well known on the continent and seems to play his trade on European shores. I can however share the music that has brought me to his attention and incited me to do this post.

Its safe to say that Steinberg's productions have a very unusual quirkyness about them, one production trait of his being his undoubted talent to incorporate strange and wonderful samples and loops from old and obscure records alongside his tight as you like percussion. For an example of what I mean take a listen to his quite simply BRILLIANT track 'Rush Me', sort of a per cursor to the Gramophonedzie style tracks which have become so popular of late.



Again, information on Steinberg is quite hard to find with him being a virtual unknown to most House music heads in the UK who aren't devout trainspotters of the genre, and mixes by him are apparently hard to come by as well, although I did manage to find a set recorded live in January at somewhere named Funkwerk (what country Footwerk is in I couldn't tell you!), which I have made available to download below, be sure to check him out!

Shortstuff

If there's one thing you will have to get used to on this blog, its me ranting on about how in love I am with a producer or DJ, and this post is going to take the gushing to a whole new level.

I first became aware of Shortstuff's name in the middle of last year after a couple of collaboration releases with Planet Mu's mad Garage purveyor Brackles, liked what I heard, and set about delving into finding some other releases by him, and it soon pretty much become apparent that Shortstuff is pretty much both producing and DJ'ing some of THE MOST EXCITING SHIT ON THE PLANET.

Seriously, this guy is on a completely different level to stuff out there at the moment, and the last few months has seen a flurry of releases on numerous labels, highlights being the Run DMC sampling mental synthstep collaboration 'Dont Sleep' with Hyetal on Punch Drunk, 'Pipey D' again made with Brackles released on Blunted Robots (the other side to Bok Boks frighteningly mental 'Citizens Dub'), and then there's the release a while back on Ramp Recordings of what has now become one of my favourite tracks in the past 10 years, the astonishing 'A Rustling', which staggers and stutters along sounding strangely out of time yet maintains a compellingly raucous rhythm.

Like his productions, Shortstuff's DJ sets are apparently a wonder to behold in a club setting (something I am sadly yet to see but will be doing my upmost best to rectify), and again like his productions can prove very difficult to lump into a category, bounding effortlessly through Techno, Dubstep, 2-Step, Wonkyness, Grime and beyond. In short, exactly what I want to hear.

There's been a few Shortstuff sets appear around the net the last few months, and, stand by for the gushing, they are breathtakingly good and structured fantastically, and are packed full of some major major freshness, as well as forays into classic Techno, overlooked Dizzee Rascal classics and so much more. I have posted the 2 sets that have been on non stop repeat for me the past 2 month or so below. Listen, be amazed, get an oxygen tank on standby.
