Danny Scrilla is either a part of or affiliated in some way with the riseandshine camp, I can't remember. They got on my radar from making three really solid mixes of uk funky. Here's a remix he's done of major lazer's hold the line.

Joy Orbison - Hyph Mngo

I first heard this tune on joy's mix on low end spasm, but it seems like it's popping up everywhere now. hypnotic shuffling broken, heavyweight... this has gotta be stiff on a real soundsystem.

tonight!

ITS MUCKY

I don't know, I might be just about officially hitting my auto-tune threshold, but this is still fire.. Kartel on syrupppy slow reminiscence tip, oddly creepy like many of his girl tunes. Makes you wonder if any of this material will see the light of day past myspace/youtube etc.. There's been like, two albums from the teacher on greensleeves since 2003.. How is that even possible!


Kartel - Without You

if a sound test

G REEL - IF A SOUND TEST

boy.. you remember them times there.

from blogtotheoldschool.. check it out, this guy is doing a lot.

Two Away

Some heat from nicki manaj, a new-ish dancehall/rap artist. Shout to dutty artz for the tip.


nicki manaj - beam me up scotty


nicki manaj - still i rise

two myspace clips from ikonika, whom i've just discovered.

three away

don't have time to write too much, but here are three joints that have been doin' the business..

KARTEL - LIFE SWEET
another sufferer's anthem from the teacher. heavy, heavy hook w/ deep producky. Shouts fly out to 'Russian' on the intro of this one and the next, is this a new producer?

Silver Star have also put a slightly odd refix of this tune over Game's "My Life" beat on their latest mix which is growing on me..

KARTEL - GRAVITY NUH HOLD WE DOWN
Another kartel, on a hustle hard tip, another big chorus and just the right amount of autotune. Has some epic trap-rap style rave bits in their just under the surface.. What!

"Me love thug music but if you nah sing that song / you no sing no song.."

MAVADO - SO BLESSED
What can I say about this tune? For me, stephen's slower, psuedo-rap experiments like 'overcome' have been some of the more exciting tunes of the year. This is another monster in the same vein.

Tubby T

I just found out that tubby t passed a few months back. I was never super familiar with his music, but what little I heard stuck with me for a long time. I think I first heard 'tales from da hood' at this party that ganesh and greg poole used to throw, many years ago. I didn't find out who the track was by until pretty recently, but there was a period in my life where the chorus would drift in and out of my head, looping away half-formed for days at a time.

Gone but not forgotten!
