PLAYME RECORDS does it again, holding on to the top 10 dubstep beatport charts with Pimpin and the long awaited Geisha VIP from Cyberoptics' latest EP Tie Fighter.

Over recent months PlAYME RECORDS has proven to the dubstep community it's determination to remain as a top quality dubstep record label with hit's such as J-Rabbits latest release Sexy Party. Although PlayMe Records has mostly unknown Dubstep artists, if you're a fan of Cyberoptics (which you probably are or will after this post) then you know that Reid Speed (PlayMe records founder) has an ear for recognizing quality dubstep producers.

MUSTS

Money (Cyberoptics Remix) - Borgore. Gold Banana 'I'mma Mutha fuckin playa wiv no money in da bank' Wayyyyyy better than the original track

Flammenwerfer

I would be lying if I didn't admit that I've been super excited for this post for months. I'm very proud to bring you the first release from Flammenwerfer, a friend and fantastic DJ. Where most American producers today are jumping onto the complextro boat, this release would feel right at home on Boys Noize Records. I've been hearing these tracks as he's obsessively tweaked them for months, and I've got to say having listened to the final product it was all worth it. I could go on and rant about these tracks, but you should just take a listen, you won't be able to hear these tracks anywhere else for now at least:

Fiber (Original Mix) by Flammenwerfer

Banger for sure. Starts Electro Tech and then just assaults your face with AAAAAAAAAAH. But not in that Dubstep abrasive way, more in that first time you heard Proxy way.

Amino (Original Mix) by Flammenwerfer (GOLDEN BANANA)

My favorite of the two. Acid.

Looks like both tracks have reached the download limit, so you can grab it below:

Fiber / Amino - Flammenwerfer + (Zippyshare Link)
Be sure to check out his SOUNDCLOUD and flood his tracks with comments so that you can't see the actual wave form anymore.

ALSO
For those of you wondering what the absence has been about, recovering from a dislocated knee. Been watching unhealthy amounts of TV.

Banana Sundaes

In my opinion Facebook's best features are the fan aka like pages. It makes it so much easier for musicians to post whatever they're trying to advertise but more importantly share with their fans other musicians that they like. Having said the obvious, the other day Skream popped on my news feed with his usual 24/7 status updates talking about these guys The Weeknd.

These guys from Canada make some of the most original R&b/Soul DUBSTEP something that I haven't heard for a while if I'm being honest. Smooth melodies, soft lyrics, butter like lyrics that make you want to sink on the sofa and chill. Their FREE mixtape House Of Balloons is a chill out vibe with the exception of 'What You Need', this is definitely a track that you'd have on the background while shagging, if you have a romantic side that is... If romantic sex isn't your cup of tea then let me tempt you to shagging with Work It by The Prototypes in the background.

All in all if you want some quality smooth R&B/Soul dubstep then these are the guys you're looking for.

Enjoy~!

-Jumpman

Julio Bashmore - Battle For Middle You ]) Golden Banana

Great sample, beautiful chords, deep drop, and skipping drums; this ones already a classic

Jacques Greene - The Look

Great garage-y pitchraised Soul vocals and an undeniable beat to match,

C.R.S.T. - May Not Be Real

Deep/must-listen stuff, classically beautiful chords & percolating rhythms

Headhunter - Chasing Dragons

Back of the club, getting lost in the music material, haunting vocals

FaltyDL - My Freinds Will Always Say...

Geez, garage is back in a big way, and this one couldnt be classier

James Blake - CMYK

A bit of an old thing now but real must have, blake with his typically mindblowing production

Whole Post

Also dear readers, its come to my attention that recently downloads haven't been playing properly, if you can confirm this is just since i(jumpman) started posting, or other specifics, it would help me fix this issue as soon as possible, thank you.
