Maya Jane Coles has blown up in the last year or so with her deep and techy house releases, each production marked by a distinctive warmth. Producing under another alias, Nocturnal Sunshine, she turns her hands to the dubstep template. Her snappy yet gentle snares are offset by some nicely understated bass, a complement to Alpines soulful, ethereal vocal work. A stunning remix:
Alpines - Cocoon (Nocturnal Sunshine Remix) {128kbps} [pelski highly recommends]
Half a year old this one... Tokimonsta slaps some crunchy, utterly satisfying hip-hop beats over Adreya Triana's r'n'b soul:
Andreya Triana - Far Closer (Tokimonsta Remix) [pelski highly recommends]
VVV goes all crackling, fizzing and experimental on this excursion into the seriously deep:
VVV - Reveries [pelski highly recommends]
Knowing Looks AKA Jason Hopfner serves up some chunky 2-step, in the hefty techno vein of Blawan:
Knowing Looks - Abandoned Skip {192kbps}
Pitched-up vocals from Pittsburgh's Kastle float over a mish-mash of ravey, acid-laced garage. Deep and yet manically energetic. A freebie from the Time Traveller EP, released some months ago:
Kastle - I Know
Deadboy - the wunderkind currently wowing crowds with his house/2-step crossover - lays some jittery percussion over a brand-spanking new track from legendary rocker Paul Weller:
Paul Weller - Starlight (Deadboy Remix) {192kbps}
