Spank Rock. Arguably one of the most innovative and original hip hop acts to come out in a moment, they fuse their playful Baltimore house beats with rhymes that have been making many a head turn since their explosion onto the scene in 2006. The music sits just outside of the usual hip hop boundaries and [...]

Engine Earz Experiment were a 4 piece band that had been cranking out some of the filthiest live dubstep to come out of, well anywhere, for some time. Not to be left behind on the cramming stakes, they have recently toured the UK supporting Dj Shadow, remixed one of his tracks, and came runner up [...]

Katy B – On A Mission was pretty much the soundtrack of summer a year or so back. It literally got played at every party I attended. Now I thought I would be bored of it by now, that is until The Skints came along and flipped it 360 with a smooth and silky dub, [...]

This just goes to prove once again that when you are as prolific as Skream you can pretty much do whatever you like. We saw a strikingly and surprisingly good disco set over the summer, a techno tune dropped over his soundcloud and a few weeks back an old school set in london with nothing [...]
