Next To You

Here is Soul Clap’s remix of Locussolus’s ‘Next To You’, which can be found on their collaborative mixtape for DJ Kicks, which they have put together with their record label owners and good friends, Wolf + Lamb. The four DJs behind this mix (Wolf + Lamb’s Gadi Mizrahi and Zev Eisenberg, Soul Clap’s Cnyce and Elyte) recognised it as an opportunity to offer a pretty definitive look at their style. On a basic level, these guys make slow-burning, steamy house music but round it out with elements from hip-hop, R&B, and vintage pop - breakbeats, rave-y vocal snatches, and funk samples split time with warm, undulating synth and bass. Beautiful stuff, which is available for you to buy now.

Example - Changed The Way You Kiss Me (Mensah Remix)

Here is the 3rd remix to surface for Example’s latest single, CTWYKM, and this is my personal favourite so far. Mensah has put his own unique dutty twist on it, bringing us one of the best dubstep remixes I’ve heard for a long while. Make sure you get your copy on June 6th. For an update on the festivals Example will be at this Summer, check HERE.

Time

Chase & Status have been running a remix competition for their new single, Time, which features the lovely Delilah. My favourite comes courtesy of a man called Sitrus - layering of the vocals is sick and very unique. There are some rubbish ones floating around; it will be interesting to see which one they choose to go on the EP.

Lovesick

Last week I downloaded a track called Lovesick by newcomer Mariella; I liked it, however this week a remix by Mark de Clive-Lowe has surfaced putting a whole new twist on the song. Soulful house at its very best. Time for a quick 2-step.

Someone Like You

I was extremely worried about hearing any sort of remix for this track, especially Dubstep, because there was every chance it could get completely ruined. However, a young man called Sam Eyes has put his own twist on one of my favourite tracks in years and absolutely smashed it. Unlike many Dubstep producers he hasn’t tried too hard to make it’s something it’s not and made the track work in perfect harmony with the vocals. I don’t want to listen to any more Dubstep remixes of this now. Check some more of his stuff on YouTube HERE - talent.

Finish Line

Here is Mike Delinquent’s remix of Yasmin’s 2nd single, Finish Line, which will be available to buy on May 8th. Garage is well and truly alive - I’ve listened to this about 15 times today. One of the best remixes I’ve heard for a very long time. Mike is a top guy with a ridiculous of talent and there is a lot more to come from him in 2011 - follow him on Twitter.
