MIDLAND
Pelski readers will be more than familiar with Midland. We placed his debut (a stunning deep house collab with Ramadanman) in our Top 10 tunes of 2010. Since then, he’s seen some blistering releases on More Music and Aus and cemented himself as a remixer in demand. His tunes' versatility has meant they’re just as likely to be spun by Sven Vath as they are Ben UFO. His FACT mix last year was championed by many as the best of the year.
PARIAH
Pariah burst onto the scene last year with an amazing debut EP on R&S – Detroit Falls and Orpheus are still personal favourites – followed by a 6 track follow up on the same label (and... an album is in the works). His sets are a choice and inventive blend of house, techno and bass. Check his Boiler Room mix here.
BLAWAN
Blawan is responsible for the fiercest kick drum around; his searing tribalist beats flirt with 2-step, house, techno and everything in between. He’s had some great EPs on Hessle Audio and R&S, most recently ‘Getting Me Down’ (a huge tune.. (shameless self-plug alert…) that recently featured on my mix).
JAMES FOX
James Fox had a big year in 2010 with the funky/tech-houser ‘Put It Back’. And, after some delay, James Fox's grooving New Jack Swing (the track you hear overtime you go out with the Gorillaz sample and amazing synths) has finally seen a release. Check out his latest mix.
