Now at first listen you’d be forgiven for thinking that this is a Mystery Jets tune, but the men behind this hands in the air, bongo happy slapper of a tune is none other that The Count & Sinden! Now I’m not sure how this one worked but i imagine it was very much 50 / 50 as its got heavy influences of both parties… whatever the relationship its a great track, and if the weather was a little better then I’m sure would be climbing the hit parade.

While we’re on the Topic of the MYSTERY JETS, we thought you’d like to know that they’re coming back to Manchester on the 22nd October courtesy of Now Wave and up the racket. All the details are here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=137619549600789

HOT CITY is so hot right now… He’s up there as one of my favourite producers of 2010, hitting the nail on the head with a bass heavy jackin’ garage sound that carves the dancefloor to pieces. He’s just dropped his latest single “Another Girl” on Moshi Moshi of all labels, and to promote its release he’s giving away this bootleg version of “Freakin Hot” by Another Level… Yeah its a lot!

Another Level – Freakin Hot (Hot City bootleg version)

PLUS he’s rumoured to have his first full length LP dropping 2011 on Moshi Moshi so watch this space… until then and as a bonus here’s a couple of his other productions from a while back that have seriously been heating up the dance floor.

If Light Year have passed you by don’t sweat, if you’ve been down to one of our raves over the past months then you’ll have heard them no worries… We’ve been banging out their tunes like they’ve been going out of fashion. They dropped their debut EP on Bang Gang a few months back and its been getting seriously rinsed from all the big players, and us. We fell in love with “Sex Education” form the Bang Gang’s podcast and as soon as it dropped we were all over it like a rash! We’ve dropped low rate mp3’s here of our two favourite tracks form the 6 track EP… check them out and if you’re feeling them get over to JUNO Download and buy the full release.

Light Year – Motor Booty

Light Year – Sex Education

The original Hugh Grant of the dancefloor is back… David E Sugar played for us over 2 years ago and pretty much crushed it. He had some banging singles at the time and Kitsune were all over him like a rash. But since then everything in the E Sugar camp has been distinctly quiet, which is why we’re happy to catch this ace new single and word of a full album in due in October. Having previously had release on the aforementioned “Fox” and CoYo Fave’s Greco Roman, its safe to say he’s lining this one up for the poppier end of the dancefloor. Party Killer drips with lazy jangly guitars reminiscent of Talking Heads, great vocal hooks, saddling up against the likes of Hot Chip and Friendly Fires, what’s more it comes with a killer video.

As much as we’re into kicking back to the original the dance floor wants more, so this is where previous CoYo guests Renaissance Man step in treating us to a full on blissed out tech house monster, with all the trademarks and trimmings that has come to make this pair one of the most in demand remixers on the block!

David E. Sugar – Party Killer (Renaissance Man remix)

A while ago we told you to keep an eye out for this lad… at the end of the last year we were hammering his “Drinkies” track with its daft samples and wonky bassline, but now he’s back with another great release and special mixtape to accompany! The lead track showcases his pop sensibilities with a shimmering vocal from folk singer Fiona Bevan. Having been likened to Erykah Badu and Joni Mitchell Fiona Bevan last year impressed on Channel 4’s ‘Orange Unsigned Act’ with Alex James of Blur describing her voice as “spine-tingling”. B-side ‘Skimmer’ sees Graham exploring more familiar territory with his trademark rough and rumbling beats, vocal cuts and a huge synth line. The release is aleady being supported by the likes of Edu K, Foamo, Malente and more with a remix package from Bare Noize, Blaze Tripp and Shooting Horses to follow sortly.

THE MEGAMIX IS BACK!!! I’m sure you all know the drill by now, but for those of you new to the concept here’s how it goes:

Each Night/DJ gets a 30 min slot to burn out the purest heat, all killer no filler, sweep the floor and get the party juiced in good style. The final hour results in an every man for themselves, Back 2 Back, No Holes Barred, All Holes Plugged…Megamix!!!

We’ve lined up another cracking night filled with Manchester’s premier disc jockeying power:

NAÏVE MELODY: This year has been epic for NM, with some bookings that can only be described as that of “legendary” status…. Smagghe, Weatherall, Twitch & Wilkes, Baldelli, ooooft! Anyone putting together parties like this knows what’s up so we don’t need to tell you that they’ll crush it proper!

EAT MY BEAT: Batty Bass, Wonky House, Tropical Techno, whatever you want, these boys can bring it… if there’s a party that needs starting they’ll be sure to do the job reeeeeeaaaaaaaaal nice!

TRAMP!: Tramp was one of our favourite Manchester Nights ever, but since its death William has gone on to make a name for himself in his own right as one of the best djs in Manchester, and deservedly so. Regular bookings alongside the biggest boys in the business has seen him tearing into the biggest clubs and even taking over the reigns of the world famous OPTIMO for the night and also warming up for some guys called 2ManyDjs!?

NOWWAVE: These boys know their stuff… they’ve put on pretty much every band that is cool and even those that didn’t even know they were cool yet. They’re so far ahead of the curve one of them once managed to high five an apparition of himself from 2 weeks in the future? Needless to say they can handle themselves behind the wheels of steel, (Especially when asked to stand in for Scratch Perverts on the main stage of Parklife?!?) so get set for some serious party throbbers.

STOP MAKING SENSE: Every time I see these lads play they smack it… Tropical Dubs to Spaced out Techno to Pumping Disco, these boys’ will be heating it from the depths of their collection for you dancing pleasure.

CONTORT YOURSELF: Yeah that’s us… we’ll be going in strong and fast jackin’ out the house party rhythms and durty disco thumpers.

SATURDAY 7TH AUGUST 2010
11:00 till 3:00 at the Roadhouse, Manchester
£4 b4 11.30 / £5 ADV or W/FLYER / £6 After

I hate the term “Midget House” that everyone seems to band around when talking about SOLO… It seems that every other day someone’s invented a new genre that last until 4pm that afternoon. What ever you want to call is SOLO is making some killer tunes and has been for the last few years, getting releases out on Sound Pellegrino, Exploited, Southern Fried, Ninja Tune and Deadfish to name a few, but this mix really nails home the direction he taking his music right now. With a frustratingly vague tracklist SOLO blends together jacking house, tropical thumpers and a few of those “oh so cool” retro vocal samples that sound like their out of 1950’s downtown speakeasies.

We’ve wanted to get him up to the cave for ages, but never been able to make the dates work so its good to see the lads over at Prostitutes & Policemen have bagged him up for their freshers special when the new terms starts alongside Glimpse, Julian Jeweil and a Manchester debut for COYO Fave Harvard Bass!

Until then get stuck into this mix recorded exclusively for JACKMODE.
