Here are a few mixes that I&#8217;ve enjoyed recently on Soundcloud (imo, Soundcloud is now hands-down the best music service on the net):<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F73620330\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>First up, is Fact Mix 362, Special Request&#8217;s mix for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.factmag.com\/2012\/12\/24\/fact-mix-362-special-request\/\">Fact mix series<\/a>, which charts a course through rave sounds, from old to new. Special Request is a new(ish) alias of long-time house producer Paul Woolford, covering some fresh house interpretations of the old skool hardcore sound. Good fun!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F77841923\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Next up is &#8216;Amenarchy&#8217;, an absolutely blazing new skool jungle mix from San Diego&#8217;s DJ Rebellion; I found this on the always excellent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.raggajungle.biz\/rebellion-amenarchy-a-junglist-guide-to-survival-in-babylon-usa-2013\/\">RaggaJungle.biz<\/a> site. Some absolutely murderous breaks and basslines on this &#8211; I really really enjoyed this mix, and you will too.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F77819888\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Elijah and Skilliam from <a href=\"http:\/\/butterzisthelabel.tumblr.com\/\">Butterz<\/a> have been enthusiastically driving the grime renaissance over the last few years through their label, blogs, radio shows, and club gigs, and, of course, their mixes. Their latest one, a Valentines special for the Special Request mix series, showcases the more romantic side of grime (well, everything is relative) &#8230; featuring tracks from Ruff Sqwad, Wiley, Dizzee Rascal, and many more. I thought it was great &#8211; an excellent selection of quality tunes, both old and new.

Slackk has a unique style, mashing together grime sounds with house rhythms to make a unique London dance sound, all clicks, squawks, and icy cold blasts of Eskibass.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F79082120\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Last but very much not least is this live recording of Luke Vibert&#8217;s set at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vinylpimp.co.uk\/\">Vinyl Pimp&#8217;s Hackney shop<\/a> last Saturday night in conjunction with <a href=\"http:\/\/discogs.com\">Discogs<\/a>. I&#8217;ve been good friends with Man Hon Luk, the Vinyl Pimp himself, for over ten years and it&#8217;s really really cool to see his business doing new and exciting things. Sadly I wasn&#8217;t able to make it to the party last weekend because my little girl was sick, but just listen to this set &#8211; listen to it! A thing of true beauty.
