Kanye West - Only One (feat. Sir Paul McCartney)

Just in time to mark the turn of the new year, Wednesday night saw Kanye West drop his first piece of new solo material in over a year, in the form of a heavily auto-tuned collaborative track with none-other than Sir Paul McCartney. Entitled 'Only One', the track is naturally a far departure form the rapper's last album Yeezus and instead appears to resemble a return to the sounds of Kanye's, primarily sung, 2008 album 808s & Heartbreak. All the same it's a beauty and, perhaps, more importantly Kanye's back.

Aquilo - Human

Ahead of it's full release next month, Lancashire based duo Aquilo have unveiled the title track from their forthcoming second EP and their first formal release since signing a major label deal. I was lucky enough to catch the pair perform the track live at their debut headline London show last Thursday and I can honestly say they blew me away. Hit the jump to listen for yourself and enjoy what might just be the most exiciting new in UK music at the moment.

Krystal Klear - One Night Only (Feat. Yasmin)

Featured on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show last month and given it's offical online premiere by the boys over at FACT just yesterday, Mancuninan House producer Krystal Klear teams up with the always effortlessly brilliant Yasmin on new single 'One Night Only'. Forthcoming on Rinse for next year, while the track may not be one for the purists if you enjoyed the combination of disco influenced house and pseudo pop vocals found on the producer's 2013 hit 'Addiction', you'll love this.

Hannah Wants & Chris Lorenzo - Rhymes

Included on the Annie Mac Presents 2014 album released just yesterday and already given it's official radio premiere by the lady herself last week, Hannah Wants & Chris Lorenzo collaborate again on monster new house cut "Rhymes". Expect to be hearing this a lot over the coming few weeks, something tells me this might just be the track that sees Bass music crossover into the mainstream.

Aquilo - I Gave It All

Ahead of their performance at their first ever set  of headline live shows backed by a full band later this month, Lake District duo Aquillo have unveiled the first track to be taken from their forthcoming second EP, expected later this year. With tinges of London Grammar, early Coldplay and even a little Bonobo "I Gave It All" is already up there with the most distinctive new music I've heard this year and adds further fuel to the building fire around one of the most exciting propositions in UK music today.

Joel Baker - If I Go (Ella Eyre Cover) (Prod. The Confect)

To mark the end of his recent stint supporting Ella Eyre on her UK tour the sensational Joel Baker has released a Jazz influenced cover of Eyre's hit single "If I Go", produced in partnership with long term collaborators The Confect. You can also buy tickets to catch Joel live for yourself as he supports Nick Brewer at the rapper's second-ever headline show late next month. Great to see London's young up-and-coming talent supporting each other so organically.

Sam Smith - Like I Can (Jonas Rathsman Remix)

Swedish producer on the rise Jonas Rathsman gets, perhaps, his biggest break to date as he's asked to remix "Like I Can", the fifth single to be taken from Sam Smith's multi-award winning album In The Lonely Hour. Late night vibes on this one. Props to Sam Smith for continuing to support the best that new electronic music has to offer.
