Roses Gabor - The Wonderful World Of Roses Gabor Vol. 1 (Mixed by Martelo) 

Roses Gabor is a name that many of you may not have heard, but I can guarantee that you have heard her voice over the past few years. Whether it's with Redlight on 'Stupid', Shy FX on 'Raver', SBTRKT on the incredible 'Pharoahs' or on tour with Gorillaz, this lady has become one of the most sought after female vocalists in the UK, and there is a reason for that. 'The Wonderful World of Roses Gabor Vol. 1', which has been mixed by my man Martelo, showcases exactly why. Click play, enjoy.

Drake - Take Care (DJ Cable Edit)

The ever impressive DJ Cable comes through with a spinna friendly edit of Drake's latest single, Take Care, which features Rihanna and samples Gil-Scott Heron/Jamie XX.

"As you know, the ladies love that “Take Care” joint, but in all honesty it’s a bit too mellow; especially when it comes to dropping it in the middle of a set.

I’ve basically added some 808s and the Think break, sped up the tempo a little bit, and given the arrangement a quick shuffle. The tune ends on a loop of the Gil Scott-Heron sample.

The end result is a slightly beefed up version, with a DJ friendly intro."
