Introducing VOYEUR

Brand new production outfit Voyeur based in Leeds graces us with a couple of tracks showing great potential for the future. 'Morphment' is the latest production and particularly impresses with a grooving bassline, classey synths and good use of the vocal sample. 'Estella' is less original being along the lines of Boddika and Joy O but still emphasises production ability. We're excited for what's

Featuring JAM CITY

Those of you who were lucky enough to make it down to Square One in Leeds before the year wound to a close, would have been fortunate enough to hear some of this forthcoming material in its intended setting. As Night Slugs soldier on through 2011, they offer up a very fresh, five track EP by Jam City. Apparently sitting on a shed load of unreleased material, he certainly saved his best cuts for

Submotion Orchestra - Finest Hour LP

This one's long overdue, so our apologies go out to all of you – most of whom have probably already bought the release, but we still feel the need to highlight the brilliance of one of our favourite bands. It’s hard to believe that 'Finest Hour' is Submotion Orchestra’s first LP – especially as it seems as if we've been listening to them for years and years. The album sparkles like a diamond in

Introducing KOMMUNE1

Kommune1 got in touch back in November but after a lot of slacking on our behalf we've sorted a few questions which will hopefully ground his name in your memory. His productions come out in a variety of flavours but all with an strong emphasis on getting the dancefloor moving. This is his latest and also our favourite...Riddim Riddim - Kommune1 Where are you based, how old are you and what do

Introducing ELSEWHERE

Elsewhere, one part of the Manchester-based Pyongyang City Sessions collective, has contributed two of his own tracks towards the inaugural PYC Sessions ZIP. His drum programming on 'Moments In Time' in particular creates a suitably organic feel that fits perfectly with the soundscapes that flow in the background. 'Papadopolus' maintains a similar percussive style but is slightly more upfront in

Featuring FLOATING POINTS

Sam Shephard, aka Floating Points, is a producer who comes from a wonderfully musical background. His latest release on his and Alexander Nut's record label, Eglo, maintains the quality that we have come to expect. The two track combination shines with the jazz influences that have made Floating Points so widely respected as not only a producer but a DJ also - it is well worth checking this out.'
