Well it’s been about six months since I last did one of my ‘monthly’ charts so I spose this one is a tad overdue. Anyway, here’s my latest selection of fings that make me shake what my momma gave me (and I’m not talking about my Christmas presents either, cos I would never do that, I am a good boy).
Most of the tunes in this chart are available to buy from Beatport, etc, so please support these poor artists or else they won’t have anything to eat this Christmas and that would be a terrible tragedy wouldn’t it? Yes it would.
01. Flore feat. Shunda K – Feel Me – Peo de Pitte Remix (Botchit & Scarper) – Peo is by far and away my favourite producer at the moment and I’m fairly sure I’m not alone in this. Yet another solid tune gets the Peo magic, this one’s essential for y’all. Make sure you ask your nearest and dearest to buy you this for Christmas.
02. That Girl DJ – Go Commando (Re:Connect) – this has been knocking about in my box (ooer) for a while now and it still makes me feel funny in the pants region. Note to self: must clean pants.
03. Deekline – I Don’t Smoke – Deekline & Tim Healey Mix / Krafty Kuts Edit (Rat UK) – A genuine party starter, if this doesn’t make your booty bounce then you’d best check the floor cos your booty has probably fallen off.
04. Enur – Calabria – Hot Pink DeLorean Remix / REL1 Re-Fix (CDR) – Commercial house, er, ‘classic’ gets a turd-polishing in a breakbeat stylee courtesy of REL1 from across the pond, who vastly improves the official version. This is available to download for free if you dig about on the interweb.
05. Michael Jackson – Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough – Hubie Edit (CDR) – None of you will have heard this edit yet as I’ve only just finished it, but you can rest assured it’s pretty much exactly the same as the original track therefore it is fucking amazing, naturally. Shamone.
06. Sidney Samson – Riverside – Peo de Pitte Re-Rub (CDR) – Peo in ‘Making Cheesey Chart Shlock Into Something That’s Rather Brilliant’ shocker! I quite like the use of the Renegade Master samples too, but then I’m easily pleased. Available for free if you ask Peo nicely. You’d best flash him some leg though, cos he likes that sort of thing.
07. Debtonate – Party Packer (Funk Weapons) – If you really like to rock da funky beat, somebody in da house say hell yeah. Hell yeah. Call it what you like, nufunk, funky breaks, cosy-as-a-granny-in-her-favourite-cardy-step, whatever… this is very tasty indeedy. Perfect warm up fodder.
08. KC Flightt vs Funky Junction – Voices – Riva Starr Remix (Hooj) – Part of the recent ‘Some Of These Were Hooj’ comp, this stands out above the rest and does the original plenty of justice, quite possibly even improving it. Mr Starr is on fire at the moment. He also has very handsome eyebrows.
09. Bassbin Twins – Whistle Choon (Bassbin) – This has been around for a little while now and, even though I’m not the biggest fan of dubstep in this part of soggy London, I pretty much wee my pants with excitement every time that bass kicks in. Note to self: don’t bother cleaning pants, best burn them instead.
10. Acidkids – Mad Mahoney – Trevor Loveys Remix (Acidkids) – Another one that’s been around for a while now. Trev lays on the breakbeats and basslines in his inimitable style with great gusto. This wobbles along like Jordan’s career, but it doesn’t need to get its Gazza-world-cup-1990-novelty-tits out in an Australian jungle in order for you to take notice of it. Or something like that.
Right, now you know what you should ask Santa for Christmas. Just make sure he doesn’t obtain the music illegally otherwise Jesus will swoop down from ‘pon high and kick him in the Christmas crackers.
I guess I should also mention that if you like any of the tunes in this list, then please check out my radio show, Hubie Sounds, on NSB Radio cos I rinse this kind of thing on a regular basis. Right that’s all from me for now, I’m off to wrap some mp3s, ta raa.
