Hey Hey... little late in the day for this one, but nevertheless it is still Monday... Just!
I've had an amazing weekend spent with old and new friends and getting down and dirty at Matter for the Mixmag Xmas Party... we got there a little late, but still got to see the likes of Fatboy Slim, Kissy Sellout, Jack Beats, Annie Mac, A-Trak, Cagedbaby and Jaymo & Andy George. Little bit peed off I missed Caspa as when he's with Rod Azlan, it is immense! Now to the tunes... going for a little bit of an Acid theme today, hope you like. :D

B.Rich - Make Me Dance (Squire of Gothos Remix)
I've been waiting a little while to get my hands on this remix... and bought it as soon as it was released, then Palms Out featured it in a post and gave it away for free... ah well, they deserve it! Top top remix and bass to make you squirm like a four year old playing with Brio.

M.I.A - XR2 (Ashburner Remix)
Ashburner is a fantastic new producer that I've been following on and off for the past few months after his 2-steppy remix of Too Many Men got my attention. He's currently got a lot of bookings in the pipeline and has releases for his own label For The Win records coming... big ups!

Myd - Train to Bamako (Canblaster Remix)
I've been waiting for the release of the Africa Saga EP from Radioclit featuring Myd, Douster and Lazy Flow for ages now... with it's release finally hitting the download stores recently. Not content on just supplying us with those fine tribal beats, however, Myd have got Canblaster to remix their contribution to the mini compilation, and its brilliant!


Mike Mind - Acid Machine
This has been by far one of my favourite tunes of the year, and since the man has been recently releasing his new 2-part EP Resonate on Turbo (see here for purchase details), I thought it fitting to deliver to you the tune that brough him to prominence in 2009. A masterclass in the art of layering the acid bass, this is just pure porn to my ears.


Savage Skulls and Andy Milonakis - Chickentown (Legobeat Hack Hack Remix)
A reall nice stripped down take on Savage Skulls' new collab with Andy Milonakis I was sent today that I will be definitely playing out soon... I'm thinking early on in the night mashed with some filthy bass to get everyone's feet pumping. Cheers lads, more of this please!

Afternoon all... got to be quite brief with this post, as I only have about half hour of internet in the Library at university (as Virgin Media are not installing my internet until Friday this week... 7 days after they said they would!) to get this beautiful selection of music to your ears. In the words of Kissy... "let's do it!"

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll (dangerDAN Remix)
A great new remix from one of my favourite producers at the moment, dangerDAN. Taking on a really positive vibe similar to the remix I enlightened you with last week of AVH's Funk Phenomenon. It starts off quite dark and chilled, with a rather soothing, rolling bassline that sweeps into the main beat. Karen O's vocals really compliment the excellent percussion work as well and the drop is rather Indian Summer-esc ;)... top effort!

Hostage - I Get High
I simply adore the big bass man Alan, far too much! He is simply a one-man-party sensation in action, and this is his latest track, currently getting much love from none other than the lady of the moment Annie Mac. Conjuring up a whole host of Kite-like renditions, then swooping into a rather tasty wobbly bass lick, I Get High really hits on all kinds of levels for me. The recognition Hostage is getting for this track is very long overdue and very deserved in my opinion.

Noob & Brodinski - Peanuts Club (Beatau Cue Remix)
Building on the success of their two recent remixes of Pon De Floor, Beatau Cue takes things a stage further with this new mix... feckin' massive! I literally can't wait for the opportunity to play this out... it is making me wet my little blue panties right now! Epic, epic stuff... much better than Renaissance Man's rather tame effort if you ask me.

Miike Snow - Black & Blue (Savage Skulls Remix) Switch's latest singing to his Dubsided venture show their true colours here with a cracking acid'y make-over of the latest single to be lifted from one of my favourite albums of the year.
If anyone makes a bassy, glitchyeryiness-kind-of tune that is as epic as this, this year, then please point it out to me. Jack Beats... cop a load of that!

rackNruin – Skitzo VIP
Currently taking a nice place on the most recent Orange Rockcorps ad, this tune with a tastier new take is making big noises on the club circuit at the moment and rackNruin's other material also has plenty of clout to boot. I'm not the kind of person to give away tracks like this, like some kind of 'blogwayman'. So instead enjoy the tune from the YouTube link above, and head here to buy it and support their work!
