Everything is relative when it comes to music, whether it be slinky dubbed out garage from the UK, or a mix of minimal techno and deep electro pop, even the squelch and beat trickery of another new beat phenomenon, and let us not forget the return of an old master and storyteller returning to the top of his game.
If you haven’t been seduced by the innovative funky, meets dubstep music of Ramadanman yet, then this fine rework is a great place to start. Tribal without the bad samples, this is perfect for the creative DJ/James Fox-Put it Back (Ramadanman refix)
Great remix of this track which came out on Mad Decent last year. This is rave music with better production than in the heyday, and on a big sound system anything by L-VIS 1990 generally does the business/L-VIS 1990-United Groove (Kingdom remix)
Another outstanding release from the ever consistent Planet Mu, this cut is available on the Ultra Heat Treated EP, far better than any of Slugabed’s bootleg remixes; this is the sort of quality you’d expect from Joker or Rustie/Slugabed-Titans
Taken from the stunning Black Noise LP, this is minimal techno that transcends that genre much like Matthew Dear, and becomes the most glorious blend of haunting textures, sculpted beats, and indie rhythms/Pantha du Prince-Stick to My Side
You should all have I’m New Here, Gil Scott-Heron’s brilliant comeback album, by now. If not here is a dark piece of poetic genius about the virtues of losing sleep/Gil Scott-Heron-Where Did the Night Go
