Vallée De Larmes

Sorry for my absence this week, but here's a quick update courtesy of Hostage and a brand new remix. Lots going on in this latest mutant mash up from Hostage, and i think only his overview can even begin to describe this track; "Weird polka-xylophone oompa-oompa thing goes dirty wamp-wamp lazer-riff bass-drop!"

Noria

Been sent a new track from the Club Cheval camp this week, with champion artist Myd returning to the buttons with 'Noria' another afro-funky track by the young garcon, thats filled to the brim with rolling snares and dramatic synths.

1990 Gucci VIP

Absolute pleasure to be able to share this track right now, L-Vis 1990 has unleashed his 'VIP Remix' of Gucci Vump's 'Sha! Shtil!' to the blogs. This extended dreamy take on the track, which was released last month on Sound Pellegrino, is just full of blissful funky beats, so good it topped my October chart, and came in second for the month in the opinion of the whole Grindin ranks.

Crack House

DJ Zinc has come a long way over the past 12 months, working out his latest angle and developing his sound from his glory days of drum & bass and breakstep back at the start of the decade. His latest 'Crack House EP' on Bingo Beats is an excellent showcase of what he's come up with, and the results are certainly catching the eye of huge talents from across the spektrum of electronic genres, getting support from the likes of Skream, Benga, Diplo, Brodinski, Fake Blood and Annie Mac. This EP covers a lot of new ground, even touching on some old ground with the retrospective homage '128 trek', plenty of tracks, plenty of different sounds, but my pick from the whole EP has got to be the awesome 'Blunt Edge' which has been on rotation a lot with me recently. Check out a few of my favourite picks below, and the full 'Crack House EP' by Zinc is out on Bingo Beats and available from Beatport and iTunes now.

Vampire Killah

Scraped this one in just in time for Halloween. The good eggs over at Nightshifters are providing the treats, giving away a brand new EP to celebrate the spookiest of holidays. The ' Vampire Killah EP' by DJ P.O.L Style stays true to this theme with "sinister dark organ stabs mounted to an awesome house-B-more skeleton" and this is no novelty, but another fantastic EP from Nightshifters that won't cost you a thing. Along for the ride on the ghost train are LOL Boys, Trumpdisco, Rob Threezy and Nightshifters' very own ruler of the underworld DJ Donna Summer, you'd be silly to miss out on this great ghoulish package.

Roska

Ive rapidly become a huge fan of Roska over the last few months, insanely impressed by his funky house beats (His 'TWC' and 'Elevated Levels' EPs are a must for anyone liking this sound, both available from Juno). With so much support gathering, this week sees Roska's debut at FabricLive's Room 2, this Friday the 30th October, playing alongside Lil Silva, Geeneus, Toddla T and Donaeo, and here's his track 'Hey Cutie' for everyone to get hyped for this event. Check out the main Fabric site for Friday's full lineup.
