Zane Lowe, B Dolan and Aupheus. Hit the jump to see if he's coming to a venue near you. Introdiction.

Scroobius Pip - Introdiction

Here is the first teaser track from Scroob's upcoming solo record, Distraction Pieces, which is produced by Danny Lohner. The video was shot for £100 directed by Aaron Shrimpton & Scroobius Pip and shot by Tom Coles. This sounds massive - always thought that No Commercial Breaks was under-rated (better than most of the Dan vs Scroob stuff), so I really hope that Distraction Places delivers the goods.

Running

My favourite track from the upcoming remix album by Jamie XX, which sees him take the original sessions from Gil-Scott Heron’s latest album and put his own electronic twist on each and every track. A nice idea, executed well.

Puzzled By People

Here is one of my favourite tracks from the new Streets album, Computer & Blues, which will be released tomorrow. This is about 1 million times better than Everything Is Borrowed. Lyrically he is as good as ever. I urge you to get yourself a copy tomorrow - you will not be disappointed. This is the perfect way for Skinner to bow out. I will miss The Streets.

I'll Take Care Of U

In February 2010, Gil Scott-Heron released I’m New Here, his first album in thirteen years. In August 2009, as a member and producer of The xx, Jamie xx released his debut album XX. The album We’re New Here sees Jamie xx remixing thirteen tracks from the original I’m New Here album sessions. Here is the latest piece to come from it - I have so much love for both of these men. Out February 21st.
