FRIDAY FLAVOURS. FRANCO & SALLA, EJECA

Vinyl heads are getting a serious treat courtesy of Belfast house don Ejeca.  "Horizon" is a massive track, combining devastatingly simple organ stabs, a throwback vocal and some serious feelgood vibes.  This track will do some serious damage on the dancefloor, guaranteed. 
The Horizon EP drops on Monday 24th Sept , vinyl only on Needwant.



Want something a little deeper?  Franco & Salla are a Brazilian duo with an excellent new release on Greek house label Erase Records.  The label has had support from Round Table Knights, Pirupa and Zombie Disco Squad, to name but a few.  "Emotion" is a deep and emotive mid-paced number, with a hypnotic, futuristic vocal.  Out now on Erase Records.


JUSTIN MARTIN - GHETTOS & GARDENS REMIXES VOL.1

Dirtybird release Ghettos & Gardens received a lot of hype over the summer, and deservedly so.      Justin Martin's ability to twist through different styles in such a playful way, has led to this first remix instalment, with big names in house, bass and dn'b chomping at the bit to put their own stamp on  Martin's eclectic tracks.
Dusky gives the gorgeous, stripped back "Don't Go" more bass and bite, and Danny Daze is on hand to give standout deep house track "The Gurner" a mean bassline.  Elsewhere, title track "Ghettos & Gardens" gets an excellent dn'b makeover from Bachelors of Science, who utilise that big, big bassline drop to maximum effect.  Dirtybird release Ghettos & Gardens Remixes Vol.1 on Oct 16th.

FRIDAY FLAVOURS

FREE DOWNLOAD.  JESS MILLS - FOR MY SINS (GORGON CITY REMIX CLUB)



Gorgon City a.k.a Foamo and RacknRuin lay down a perfect slab of club bass music here, with an excellent remix of Jess Mills' floaty tune.  This is 4/4 with a kick; a great way to bring a heavier bass sound into a house set.

NEW HUXLEY.

Huxley is on top form again here on remix duties for one of the tracks of the summer, Pirupa's Party Non Stop (out soon on Defected).  This is a heavy-duty party track, pumping with Huxley's thick bass wrapped around it.  Look out for Huxley's 1trax mix, dropping on 13th August, which is sure to be essential.

FREE BASS

Lovin' this Detboi remix of Herve's new single feat. Ronika - How Can I Live Without You (Make it Right).  The original is a highlight from Herve's new album Pick me up, Sort me out, Calm me down (out now, Cheap Thrills).  An old school belter with a healthy dose of Herve's trademark ghetto bass.  This is a worthy remix though, stripping back the rave piano's in exchange for some filthy bassline.



Also if you are into house, wobble or bass music, and haven't already downloaded this then just get on it.  It's the new Jack Beats mixtape and it's sheer energy simply smacks you in the face.  Its a pre-cursor to the first of 2 mini EP's the duo are dropping over the next few months.  The mix opens with title track Careless and drops some of their trademark wobbly remixes like Beyonce's Countdown, plus some unheard tracks, which I hope to see on the EP!

FRIDAY FLAVOURS

Eats Everything should be flavour of the month every month.  The Bristolian, otherwise known as Daniel Pearce,  is all over Businessman on Diazepam, with his deep, playful bass-work.  Get the track from The Other Tribe's E.P, (out now on Black Butter Records).



Jack & Bass, a track from funky Polish DJ Martino B has been floating around for a while, but now it gets a full official EP release from Polish bassline label Impulz Records.  It's unashamedly banger as they come!
