2 deadly tunes

1. Mr. C is back after a 5 year hiatus and his new tune "Full Moon" from his Lunar EP is amazing. It's minimal and builds slowly; it's very slick- and I just have it on repeat all day. Check it out over at http://www.myspace.com/mrcsuperfreq - you can buy it at Juno Records.

2. This track "It's Just Muzik" from Laurent Garnier is pretty filthy and heavy and great:

Detroit In Effect (D.I.E)

Nothing like a little low-key techno to cure what ails you on a Monday - Detroit in Effect (D.I.E) are DJ Maaco and P-Dog from eastside Detroit producing some quality beats on dutch label Clone Records and their own label M.A.P. The first video here is a live recording of a tune called Get Up, with P-Dog giving shout outs, the second is called 'Nothing's Like Detroit'; the video is a little tour of the city all snowy:





You can check out more of their stuff at http://www.myspace.com/detroitineffect (check out FM sucks) or on their youtube channel- all their stuff seems pretty limited edition but you can pick up Nothing's Like Detroit/ FM sucks on 12" over at Clone.

Rainy Day Review: H.O.S.H

H.O.S.H is a german minimal/ house/ techno DJ and producer and I don't know anything about him (or minimal, or house, or techno for that matter) but some of his tracks are amazing. If you like your beats slick and somewhat filthy (perfect for a rainy day) you should check these out.

This one White Elephant is from 2007 - this video is pants but you can check out the tune and see if it's up your street before downloading it.



This next tune is called The Valve, and as Chewy would say, it's so far UP my street I'm surprised it's not in my front room havin' a cup of tea with my nan:
