Lunar C ft. Grace - 'Green Garden'

Lunar C - WY's finest and Don't Flop's most successful outbreak rapper and MC delivers this weeks 'string session' for SBTV. Featuring Grace on vocals, this rendition of Laura Mvula's 'Green Garden' - Lunar adds some powerful verses and undeniable lyrical flow complimented well by the female vocals and string instruments. Great way to put such a different spin on the original.

Traktion - Park Patrol

I've featured Traktion before on the blog. This is just a kid making music in his bedroom and the quality of drum & bass he's producing definitely impressive.

He's back with a new EP 'Park Patrol' which is available for free download for anyone who 'likes' his Facebook Page - the EP features 6 tracks in which he dabbles with other genres.

T2 - Heartbroken (De$iGNATED 2K13 Remix)

Was a huge fan of the original of this song back in the day, so naturally I'm welcome to any reworks to bring it up to times.

London based DJ duo DE$iGNATED do a good job remixing that vocal to three individual drops to different styles of UK garage.

Shy FX - Soon Come

When I first found out Shy FX's upcoming album 'Cornerstone' was going to be purely reggae based I was pretty disappointed because Shy FX is one of my favourite drum & bass producers of all time. But after hearing this first track 'Soon Come' I can't deny how much of a jam it is; looking forward to the album if the quality of music levels this throughout.

Chase & Status - Lost & Not Found

Gorgeous new track from Chase & Status. 

Released on their label MTA Records, this track will feature on their third studio album due for release later in 2013.

That breakbeat matched up with the vocals of Louis M^tters makes for an old school vibe and after featuring as Zane Lowe's 'hottest record in the world' I'm sure this is going to be getting some serious radio play.

Snoop Lion - Smoke The Weed (ft. Collie Budz)

I don't mock Snoop for his change in name and music direction, the guy has been in the game for a long time and I think its natural for an artist of his stature to want to try something new.

Reviewing some of the songs from the 'Reincarnated' album I was a bit put-off by some of the tracks I heard - it seems as  though he has sold-out on some tracks in order for him to gain some commercial success, however, that is not to knock the whole album, there are a select few tracks I love and this one featuring Collie Budz has got to be my personal favourite.

Daft Punk - Get Lucky (ft. Pharrell Williams)

So here it finally is, the official version of the song which has had the internet on buzz for the past few weeks.

'Get Lucky' is the first song to be released from the upcoming Daft Punk album 'Random Access Memories', featuring the vocals of Pharell, this song is nothing short of what I expected it to be - and old school smooth dance track with Daft Punks unique vibes.

It's probably the most anticipated album of the year, pre-order 'Random Access Memories' on iTunes HERE

Die & Jenna G - 1000 Soul Songs

Incredible track! When two huge talents like Die and Jenna G team up there is no doubt that the result will be something as fantastic as this. This one gets me all excited for the summer months upcoming.

This will be released on June 3rd on Gutterfunk records.

Disclosure - You & Me feat. Eliza Doolittle

Heard Disclosure play this when I saw them in Nottingham in March and have been anticipating the official release for awhile.

  Featuring great vocals from Eliza Doolittle, this is another big tune from Disclosure unsurprisingly, i'm sure we'll hear a lot more of this on the radio and in the clubs for months to come.


Single is released April 28th.

NEKA - What Would We Do

Neka (Aidan T) is a London/Southampton based DJ and producer.

I know Aidan personally and know that his knowledge of drum & bass is on point, this is one of the guys who pretty much introduced me to the genre.
Ultimately, i know this guy knows what he's doing when it comes to producing and if this latest track is anything to go by i'm expecting big things.

Ivy Lab - Afterthought (Ft. Frank Carter III)

Ivy Lab is a collaborative project consisting of 3 big DJ's in the drum & bass scene - Sabre, Stray & Halogenix. After dropping their first tune 'Oblique' at the beginning of 2012, they've been on my radar ever since.
This track is absolute bliss, 'Afterthought' features vocals from Frank Carter III.

TC - Daft Not To

I'm seriously impressed by TC's ability to produce quality tunes of varying genres.

Everyone (including and especially me) is feeling the Daft Punk hype with their new album coming up.

TC dropped this latest tune a couple days ago inspired by the French Duo to get everyone in the right spirit.

Quality tune.

WildChild - Renegade Master (AppleBottom Remix)

Classic track, i've heard this remixed in just about every genre.
