Clap Rules - Get Excited

My favourite track from the full-length debut Clap Rules album, which was released last week on Bear Funk. Clap Rules is the pseudonym of Fabrizio Mammarella, Andrea Gabriele and Max Leggieri, who all have a deep love for vintage equipment and recording techniques; they mix this up with a fresh modern approach to concoct electronic music with no boundaries. Sounds like something from the 60s/70s that has been recorded in 2030 - so much funk. Disco is still alive.

Nora En Pure - Saltwater

Not exactly a tune that will be getting the clubs boucning this Summer, but definitely something to have your iPod when you're poolside and fancy listening to some chilled out House music. Sampling the classic Careless Whisper, it's pretty much impossible to not sing, hum or whistle along.

Deetron - Solar Surge

Here is the stunning B-Side of Deetron's new EP, Starblazer, which was released this weekend on Rejected. He has such a unique sound, uses the funkiest chords and has become one of my favourite House producer of all-time over the past couple of years. Love the vocal in this.

iamcoxhead - Something About You

A new mix from yours truly, which showcases the stuff that I've been listening to as of late. House music always seems to be at it's best this time of year. There will be quite a few of these mixes over Summer. Hope you enjoy - free download as ever.

2. Stu Patrics - Things Working (Original Mix)
3. Tensnake - Something About You (Original Mix)
4. Huxley - Heidi Clam (Original Mix)

6. Piek - Please Listen

Wretch 32 - Don't Go (Feat. Josh Kumra) (DJ Fresh & Sezer Uysal Remixes)

Here are two smashing remixes of Wretch 32's third single from his upcoming debut album, Black & White. First up is a pretty abstract Electronic rework courtesy of DJ Fresh, who is the man that has brought us one of the songs of the Summer in Louder. The second is a brilliant Tech/Progressive remix from Sezer Uysal, who has been a popular figure on the underground scene for quite a few years now. Future Data don't let their artists put out poor remix packages, and this one is no exception, even though the Manhattan Clique remix is pretty poor. Enjoy, and make sure you cop Don't Go, which is out August 14th.

Sandra Nkaké - A Place for You (MdCL Remix)

Last month the legendary Gil Scott-Heron passed away. As a tribute Paris based vocalist Sandra Nkaké created 'A Place for You', based on Gil’s cover of Inner City Blues. It features Jean Phi Dary on rhodes, Antoine Berjeaut on trumpet, Matthieu Ouaki on guitar, Jî Drû on flute and Sandra herself on vocals. Sandra also asked Mark de Clive-Lowe amongst others to remix the song as part of their tribute. An incredible tribute, that you download for free HERE!

Toddla T - Watch Me Dance (Feat. Roots Manuva)

Here is the title track from Toddla T's upcoming album, Watch Me Dance, which features the legendary UK rapper Roots Manuva. T has gone for a much funkier sound on this LP, and I like it, I like it a lot. Another version will be on Manuva's album, but I can't really see it topping this. ENJOY & DANCE!

MANIK (NYC) - Need Your Lovin x Lose My Mind

Here my two favourite tracks from MANIK (NYC)'s debut full-length release, Armies Of Night. The New York City born producer has gained recognition from some of the biggest names with his discography boasting music releases on the world's best underground imprints, like Josh Wink's Ovum, L.A based Culprit, Steve Bug's highly praised Poker Flat, and the almighty Hot Creations- run by Lee Foss and Jamie Jones. It's hard to put MANIK in a specific genre, but Disco, Funk & Acid mixed together is the best I can come up with. Listen to these and make up your own mind - groovy.

Homework - Rally Racquet Club (Video)

I was excited to see the video for this after hearing the EP last week, and I'm glad to say that it didn't disappoint. Really glad they kept it simple - Made To Play never fail me. Great time to release this tune.

Huxley - Madatme

Huxley is best known for his groovy Deep House releases, however his new EP, Heidi's Frustation, sees him dabble in a few other genres. On this track he goes all funky old skool Garage on us, and for me it suits him down to the ground. He is one of my favourite producers in the world, and this just proves why.
