Nas vs massive attack e1340658126101 Nas vs Massive Attack The Don

Nas vs Massive Attack I hear you say? Yup, Tim Goldsworthy has re-arranged Nas‘ track ‘The Don‘ against Massive attack. The out come? a chilled, eerie, low key affair with plenty still going for it. I will always love the original of The Don as the beat is crazy, but this is a well flipped edit non the less, and looks as if it’s got Nas‘ approval. Check it out…

Huxley Fact Mix 323
I’ll shy away from clichés such as ‘man of the moment’ when speaking about Huxley. He’s been building his career for a long time now and cliché phrases like this are left for the hyped up artists who lack substance. With that in mind, Huxley delivers a fine mix of house with a dash of 2 step garage.

John Talabot – FACT Mix 315

Talabot’s released on a few labels in his time, Permanent Vacation, Young Turks and his own Hivern Discs imprint, but its to the former he’s turned to release ƒin, a remarkable debut album that takes the late night inner-city vibes of producers like Burial and Convextion but splashes gold paint over those midnight blues and greys. The results are one of the saddest, but also inspiring records of 2012 so far.
Here’s John’s Latest mix for Fact Mag, and one of my favourites off the ƒin album. Mainly because it features Pional.

Four Tet have a new track coming out called Locked, which is coming out on 12″ in September 2011. It’s also included on Fabriclive 59. Save this stuff for home listening though… I don’t want to dance to it.

Jamie XX – We’re New Here

Written by . Posted on March 17, 2011. Filed under Album, Electronic. No comments.

Jamie Smith of the XX is quickly establishing himself as one of the most diverse and innovative producers in the game. His latest effort remixes Gil Scott Heron’s much lauded and critically acclaimed album ‘I’m New Here’. Throughout the 13 tracks he marries a variety of genres and samples but impressively still leaves you with the feeling that they are part of the same organism. You also quickly get a sense of the fun he is having on tracks such as ‘I’m New Here’ where he juxtaposes the vocals from Heron’s title track and Gloria Gaynor’s ‘Casanova Brown’ and plays it like a conversation between two people meeting for the first time, or the cheeky nod to Rui Da Silva’s 2001 hit ‘Touch Me’, which has clearly inspired the rhythmic crux for ‘Ur Soul and Mine’.

(Also, check Jamie XX’s steel pan remix of Touch Me which is bound to find a release in time for the summer.)

If there’s a downside to the album, it’s that the interludes are begging to be developed into something more and while they may be in keeping with Heron’s original vision they stunt the flow of the album as a whole. However, of the 13 tracks 8 of them are killer and definitely worth seeking out.
