Bonjour!

Meteorites (Danny Byrd Remix) - London Elektricity (Golden Banana)
BEAUTIFUL DnB track, totally obsessed.

Someone Elses (Document One Remix) - Borgore, Adi Ulmansky (Silver Banana)
Epic Dubstep, semi-progish beginning with MASSIVE drop.  I'd love to drop this track.

Goody Two Shoes (Viceroy Edit) - Duck Sauce
Well if I'm good to you, you've got to be good to me.

Blind Cobblers Thumb (Tantrum Desire Remix) - Futurebound
LETS GO DRUM & BASS!  I FUCKING LOVE IT.

I Need Love (Spektre Remix) - Tomcraft
God, I also love Techno.  I love everything!  Someone scratch my head!

Still Getting It (Original Mix) - Foreign Beggars feat. Skrillex
I'm sure you ALL know what to expect from this.

Traction (Club Mix) - Bart B More
Electro House on the Tech side.  Maybe Electro Techno, too lazy to change it now.

Zen (Original Club Mix) - Kim Fai
This wouldn't be an AwB post without some Prog House.  Gotta balance out the filth.

Tonic (Original Mix) - Russ Chimes
Some Electro House on the funky side.

Virgo (Canblaster Dub Remix) - King Cannibal
Funky on the ravey side.  This shit is just primal.

No Way Out (David Tort Remix) - Spirit Catcher (GOLDEN BANANA)
Definitely one of the greatest Tech House tracks you can get right now.  Difficult to describe, all I can say is that it's incredible.

Roger More (Phonat Re-Edit) - LL Ton J (Silver Banana)
Disco House rules.  I also happen to be on a huge Bond movie kick (literally just finished Thunderballs before this post, how sick is that underwater fight), so the title makes me happy.

Clockworks - Canblaster
Some Funky flavors from France, of all places.  Canblaster doesn't really stick to a genre, he just sticks to consistently killing it.

Original Hardcore (Bass Kleph Remix) - Moguai, Westbam (Silver Banana)
As I've been saying, Bass Kleph is a BEAST right now.  And here's another sick Tech House jam to add to his collection.  Jackin drums.

Take Me Over (Mylo Remix) - Cut Copy
Some Nu Disco / Synth Pop flavors.  Gotta smile sometimes, no?

Miranda (Oliver Huntemann Remix) - Marc Romboy vs. Stephan Bodzin
If you're not into that smiling shit though, you can always cop some intense, brooding Minimal Techno.

Shake it (Original Mix) - Ben Delay & Till West
House that samples old 20s swing.  Baller.

Shuffling and Looking Dumb (Feat. Krystal) - BetaTraxx
Heavy but Fun Electro with some vocals.

Dynamite (Original Mix) - Alesso
Another BIG House track from this guy (he was the Golden Banana of yesterday's post), another Big Room House smasher that is getting played out by the Swedes.

Turn Up The Music (Original Mix) - Audio Jacker
And some more Disco flavors to end with this House track.

Get on this,

She Wore Velour...

Velour is the Funky collaboration between two established house and dubstep producers, who as far as i know have chosen to remain mysterious/anonymous. The EP, entitled The Velvet Collection includes four variations of a single theme, it is meant as an homage to the roland synthesizers of the 1980's. They're behind one of the track's of the year i like to think with Booty Slammer, overall very funk infused sexual emotive joints, hope you enjoy it.

Jam Hot Tracks from Jam City

Nightslugs is definitely my fav label of the year, and they've been hiding away some gems from this amazing UK producer for quite some time but now theyre finally finding theyre way out, especially thanks to his latest release on the label, entitled magic drops, and boy does the title track deliver just that, this guy has such clarity in his production technique, he has a dynamic range from spectral disco beats to hardcore subby 2step funky jams. Keep looking out for this guy, big things.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.  Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.  I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.  All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... Time to die.

For those of you that don't have the vocal mix.  One of the best Prog House tracks around right now.

Electro House on the Nu-Disco side.

Firecracker (Ravid & Fabian Remix) - Syndaesia

Scratcha DVA

London's Leon Smart, better known as 'Scratcha' DVA (sometimes known as Soule:Power), is definitely up there for the title king of funky, and is one of my favorite dj/producers out there at the moment. A longtime grime producer, and Rinse.fm resident dj, showcasing the best new UK Garage, Grime, Funky, & Dubstep every morning 5 days a week, has been tearing up 2010 with his own Funky productions, which he's been releasing through his own label along with tracks by some fellow Funky artists. He's also seen releases on Kode9's hyperdub label, his music can be described wonky, playful, percussion heavy tunes, with fluid organic jungle sounds and liquidy synths, unabashedly fun, sexy, club-house, heres a good sampler of his tracks i've gotten together, enjoy!

Joe (EDIT)

British label Hessle Audio, run by Funkystyled Dubstep producers Ramadanman & Pangaea and Forwardthinking DJonly Ben UFO, has been a veritable funky minimal gloopy dubstep thinktank always bringing a fresh sound. Their latest release was by Joe, who has released on the label before, his brand of funky brings a very minimal, percussive, latin, maybe even favelaflavored sound, backed by fantasticly low subs, reminiscent of very early oizo think stuff off "#1" Here are his two EPs, enjoyyyyy!

Girl Unit

Hmm, i feel like we need some more Funky, so here's some stuff by London DJ/Producer Girl Unit, one of the most exciting producers on the scene, with amazing deep hardcore sounds and a pitchshifting use of the drums, almost like talking drums, every so often breaking into half step. Bass music with tribal drums grime soundpallete and deep unstable organic synths, good stuff. This is his debut EP entitled I.R.L. out on the brilliant new label Night Slugs, which is run by Bok Bok & L-Vis. Make sure to grab this and enjoy, his remix for Marcus Price & Karli is insane.

Joy Orbison's '09 releases

Joy Orbison has been turning the Garage world on its head as he seamlessly unites its many facets, we seem to be entering a new era, with a new wave of artists helping to create an artfully progressive mutation of Dubstep. It came to my attention, that his must have track Hpyh Mngo had not been posted here, so i'm going to now, along with the rest of his released original work that i haven't already posted. Big Up to Joy!
