Always New Depths

First Aid Kit - Dancing Barefoot (Patti Smith Cover) - Full Live Version from the Laura Leishman Project

Two sisters, considerable harmonies, no production.

Job. Well. Done.

Moon Boots - Got Somebody

Amalgamating my interest in riddims in the Diwali Riddim, electro-funk and baselines in a beautiful way.

Floating Points - Farukx

Too smooth for spiel. 

Marlow & Truby - A Horse With No Name (Refix)

Who said I didn't love the people? Upped & shared on youtube by myself, my subscribers have gone through the roof - they're going to be severely disappointed unless they also love BBC Sports Montages.

This is a must have, obligatory electro-snare and an appearance on Mr. Peterson's show makes it a big one for this summer.

Rainer Truby & Marlow take on the classic America track. Taken from; The Soul Session feat. Karl Frierson "A Horse With No Name" Marlow & Trueby Refix forthcoming around june on German label Agogo Records http://www.agogo-records.com/en/news/index.html http://soundcloud.com/agogo-records/the-soul-session-album-preview

Jai Paul - Jasmine (Demo)

Intermittent. This is only the second Jai Paul track I've listened to since BTSU and I'm impressed. #highqual

Kendrick Lamar ft Dr. Dre - The Recipe

You can tell by my attitude to this, and other tunes as well as my head nod (and grime furrowed brow) to this that the weather is getting hotter & hotter leading up into this summer. 

Dre still sounds sick in 2012

5Five - Bossu Kena

"BOSSU BAKU PE" Officially #gassed. the piano is next level and the chorus is a sing a long.

If only Hip-Life charted in the UK...

Georgia Anne Muldrow - Seeds

If Georgia Anne Muldrow didn't like singing superbly over a beat of layered instruments, she probably wouldn't have written this song. She'd particularly hate 2.50 onwards.

Charles Bradley & The Menahan Street Band - Stay Away

Pure covers are rarely good. This differs enough from the original to be unrecognisable, and is all the better for it.

Preditah - Circles EP Promo

Grime doesn't come better than this, 8 bar edit. 

The beat in question is indeed Circles, makes even the worst sound okay, highlights are Scrufizzer, Footsie's switch up flow... and the reload. Sox gets a special mention, that brum flow. 

'...turn this place into gaza' is turning over in my head overandoverandoverandover in the office.

Ifan Dafydd - Miranda

Jacques Greene - Arrow (ft Koreless)

As the blurb on the link below says this follows up a breakthrough year for both artists and combines their familiar sounds to great effect. Banga

Newham Generals - Doomed

Youngteam - Seasondeux

Like electro-nu-soul, this mixture of genres is making it hard for me to be a structuralist. Sounds incredible.

Ifan Dafydd - Treehouse

Apparently Ifan and James Blake were roomies at university, although this might be an internet hoax - makes sense. 

Sounds good, maybe a little better.
