Ahead of the album ‘Pretty Ugly’ scheduled to drop early in 2012 on Hyperdub, Rinse’s Scratcha DVA comes correct with an amazing single featuring Vikter Duplaix, entitled ‘Madness’. The official release date on this taster single is still a month off but keep ears to the ground for club and radio action in the meantime as this melodramatic Inner Visions-esque anthem to a problematic love gathers momentum!

Possibly one of the biggest UK Funky tunes to date, the original version of ‘Wonderful Day‘ pretty much kicked Jamie George‘s career off, with a big slice of help form Roska. Funky’s new king, DVA, has added some Santana style strings and slowed the whole damn thing down, this one is primed to be all over Radio 1 for the next 4 months. Watch this space.

WOIIIIIII, we like it Funky (stepz). That’s right, Hyperdub‘s latest release is from the UK Funky scene flavour of the month, Funkystepz. This one is defo for the dancefloor, big tropical bass and horns, the perfect blend of a good funky tune! ‘Fuller‘ is the tune for me, great track, one I will be inserting into the next OUZO BEATS mixtape for sure, check it!
Early contender for Carnival 2011 riddim. Expect to hear this at the Rampage soundsystem. A LOT.

We have posted about Kashmir Kid before and posted up a mix or two and now his first release is finally available to buy! Kashmir Kid makes his debut release on Goldielocks’ label Gut Instinct with ‘Return To Bombay City’. Already gaining support from DJs such as Swindle, Redlight, Klose One and Seb Chew who gave it’s first airplay on Rinse FM just hours after hearing it.
Sarah has been chatting to us about KK for a while and we will be doing some bits with him in the near future, so watch this space! He is of British and Pakistani heritage, Kashmir Kid makes electronic music with an influence of Dubstep, UK Funky and Future Garage, all with his signature Eastern subtleties hidden within each track. A product of Pakistani immigration and Goldie’s Inner City Life set to a backdrop of post 7/7 London, KK makes gritty inner city music for those slightly more conscious of concepts and themes.
If you haven’t heard it already, give it a go here, it’s defo worth a listen!
OK, so, ideally I would have a direct link to the track in question, but I searched the web high and low to no avail. I even tried uploading the mix from which I first heard this, but that didn’t work either. I have no other choice but to suggest you go direct to the same source I did. It’s worth it. If you are in anyway unfamiliar with the ridiculously solid body of work by 808 State then you’ll be doing yourself a favour anyway. But, as this post is generally about one specific track I have to insist that you skip through to Track 26 (starts coming in to the mix at about 51:12) in Dunfyboy’s 808 State Mix. I’m talking about a serious remix of an already serious rave anthem; Cubik. Widely recognised for it’s distinctive cascading synth stabs, the original tore up warehouses and dancefloors the world over when it was originally released as a B-side to one of 808 State’s singles. A few years later Jon Carter gave it the Monkey Mafia treatment and released, what you will hear, sounds not too dissimilar to the vibe in some of The Bug’s work from a few years back. Heavy ragga undertones with punchy, aggressive programming that wouldn’t sound out of place in some of the tougher edge Funky sets I’ve heard of late.
If you have any trouble finding it, it’s the track directly after MC Tunes ‘The only rhyme that bites’, and if you don’t know that then here it is for your guidance…
PS Dunfyboy has a lot of other decent genre and artist specific mixes that are worth some serious ear time. Check it out.
