Secret 7″ is a project in in tandem with Teenage Cancer Trust, Talenthouse and Universal Music to help encourage creatives to participate in a challenge that will help promote artistic talent. An challenge set by seven hosts; The Cure, Florence & The Machine, Bombay Bicycle Club, Ben Howard, CSS, Noah + The Whale and DJ Shadow,the task is to design an original piece of 7″ vinyl artwork inspired by each of their chosen songs.
Calling all visionaries from graphic designers to painters, illustrators and photographers, Secret 7″ is providing an incredible opportunity for professionals, novices and art enthusiasts to collaborate with celebrated bands and artists. Viewed by millions, and chosen out of thousands, the final pieces of artwork are decided by the public voters via Facebook and Twitter.
The project will culminate in 700 uniquely pressed vinyls (with a limited edition of 100 covers for each artist’s single) to be displayed in an art exhibition at Idea Generation Gallery in London, Shoreditch in the week leading up to Record Store Day April 2012.
All Secret 7” singles with chosen artwork covers will be available to purchase, but none of the buyers will know who has created the sleeve, or even which song it’s for, until they are holding it in their hands.
To get involved simply visit the Talenthouse website, find our creative invites and follow the guidelines. Deadlines start to close one a day from the 13th January through to the 19th

As mentioned in our list of ‘Xmas Giveaways,’ Audio Doughnuts marked this Christmas with a free ten-track showcase LP made up of previously unreleased material from TOYC, Funkystepz, Kozee, Teeza, Diamond Bass, The Fives, 8Spirit, Shift Key and also one anonymously produced track.
In keeping with the label’s ethos, the LP features a wide range of genres from dubstep and grime to an acoustic funky house track, ‘Feels Good,’ from The Fives. Whilst all the tunes are of the high quality you can expect of this label’s releases, the standout tracks for me are the two downtempo house/garage cuts from TOYC and Kozee; and the grime-infected ‘Symphony,’ from Teeza. Stream the showcase below, and download the tracks invidually here.
This month also sees the label escaping its London base to host a night alongside Absentminds at Mint Club, Leeds, on January 20. The line up includes Rustie, Appleblim, Koreless, Onoe Caponoe, Pusherman, Voyeur and AD 3LP releasee, TOYC. Check the Facebook RSVP page for more details.

After the storming success of their parties and sets in the second half of 2011, Kitsch and Sync have established themselves as serious ones to watch in 2012 for fans of deep/tech house.

These two tracks complement each other really well and show the spectrum of what the Kitsch & Sync vibe is all about. Keep your eyes on this lot, tipped for big things!
