Apple Juice Kid / Peche Noir
Seems we're in the age of the free beat tape.
Dutch Outfit firstly, by the name of Peche Noir out of my favourite Dutch stable; AppleTree Records. It's a great project, and one I fully, fully, fully endorse. I'm gonna say no more on it, so as not to take away any of the surprise. But if you like what's in the player below - grab the FREE album from their website, here. (Gotta go to the download section. . .)
The Apple Juice Kid is somehow affiliated with Camp Lo. . And despite your first impression that this is potentially something of a disaster project. . He hasn't harmed the legacy of Miles Davis in any way. This completely bangs, and if you don't 'get jazz' yet. . this could be a perfect place to start. Again, check the player. . and if you like it, grab the tape. . from the link somewhere below.
MP3: The Apple Juice Kid - Miles Remixed
Thoughts on these most definitely welcomed. As are your recommendations. .

Daykeeper
Sorry to go video after video, but, for a song that i've been listening to pretty much daily, I had to get it out of my system.
The (Foreign Exchange) album seems to be of an equally high standard, however i'm saying that without putting ear to it yet. I have been warned that the first listen should be via my best headphones and preferably at night. So just waiting for the right window.
Check it.

808's & Heartbreak Listening Session
Got to go with thefader for the write up.
auto-tune haters sit tight.
approximately forty nude women, most of them wearing face-obscuring masks seemingly made of faux lamb's wool, stood in the middle—black girls in the front, white girls in the back
emotional nakedness

Souled - Fresh Minute EP
some stunning deep house out of Watford.
each track going in a different direction, yet never completely straying from its roots.
Bike Chain & Rockeez the stand outs - both receiving support from Domu, Forge, Peterson & Benji.
probably the best £1.79 i'l spend all year. 7digital stand up.
Souled at Myspace - I'm sure there is a discography to be getting up on after copping this.
grow UP
Bishop Lamont used to sit on the wack pile in my house.
listening to Dj Jamad's afromentals the other week. . 'Grow Up' hit my theory for six. I don't know if he's released an album as of yet, i cant tell you how many mixtapes he's dropped. . but I can tell you that dre's on the beat of this and its a hard track. here's a live performance rather than the mp3 cause im guessing itl be easy for you to find. . .and its the most i can muster while i'm sipping on weak weak tea. always make your own.

mutations
Kode 9's September chart for RA completely encapsulates the mutations the UK urban scene is currently undergoing. Funky, Dubstep, wonky and grime all coming together.
1. Mono/Poly - Oilfields
--- told you about this guy before. maybe you'l be more likely to take kode's advice on board.
2. Zomby - Spaceman
--- completely lost the plot. further out than wonky.
3. Burial - Feral Witch Child
4. Ikonika - Direct
--- Off beat, & hyperdub label mate
5. Apple - Segalizer
6. M.Double & Bandit - Untitled
--- ......? School me.
7. Mentor Roska - Feeline VIP
---regularly dropping ep's. . see juno. . and from a production side - kinda leading the funky charge.
8. Geeneus - Yellowtail
---killer arsenal. Gilles Peterson even got his funky on and dropped this. So in touch with the kids. Geeneus' behind the brand new monthly funky night at bar rhumba (LDN) 'Beyond'. Developments of the scene will most likely happen their first.
9. Kode 9 Vs. LD - Bad
---CANT get enough of these productions. speechless
10. Kode9 & The Space Ape - Bullet Against Bone
--- Mind blowingly raw dubstep. Will upload set on WW for you soon.
------
people have theories for days about how all four sounds will collide and how the bpm will hit 140 this and 138 that etc. . I have no background in musical theory so I'm kinda lost when it comes to debating this, but when sounds get a whole community this excited you kind of know its going to be something special once its all panned out. Excited. And i know a lot of others who are too.
Oh yeah. . . And your man's beaten the worst flu of his young life. Ginger tea.
