New Mikix The Cat EP on Trouble & Bass

Parisian mean machine Mikix The Cat has a new EP out on Trouble & Bass. The new EP 'Girls Keep On Wondering' promises the same tech-house brilliance we've seen in the past.

To coincide with its release he's put together a mix of Chicago House-inspired favourites of his, as well as a selection of MTC tracks from his new EP. With such a high quality back catalogue, it's no surprise the internets have been ablaze with blog-based love for Señor The Cat.

KOTJ Radio | Episode 5: Willy Joy

The fifth edition of our (sort of) monthly podcast comes from Chicago's very own Willy Joy. With elements of electro, house, UK funky, pop, techno and heavy bass all coming to the fore, this is a well put together mix capable of getting just about everyone doing the running man.

His newest release with Rob Threezy on Trouble & Bass comes as part of their Heavy Bass Champions Of The World series. With his releases getting support from the likes of Diplo, Drop The Lime, Brodinski & Boy 8-Bit, this mix shows exactly why he has friends in high places.

Check out his Heavy Bass Champions Of The World X EP with Rob Threezy here and look out for a forthcoming release on Plant Music.

New 77 Klash EP out soon

MC for Major Lazer 77 Klash has a new EP produced by Drop The Lime and AC Slater out on Trouble & Bass this week called 'Shadow Of Death'. A video for the title track is on its way.

"77 Klash is a Brooklyn based artist, raised in NYC, Jamaica and even spent some time on the west coast and this EP really showcases Klash’s spectrum; from angsty mob stomping aggression like on Shadow of Death, to the socio-politcal activist mentality on Dangerous Nights to the sunshine inspired love song No Turning Back. Klash is all about it on this EP, even going hard on the epic Supra 1 Remix of Little Jinder’s Polyhedron instrumental."

In the mean time you can stream the whole EP on his Soundcloud page or download the title track below before you buy!

New AC Slater single on Trouble & Bass!

Trouble & Bass stalwart AC Slater has been rather busy of late. His new single 'Take You' with Ninjasonik has been released along with his contribution to the T&B Smashcast series and his mix for Mishka.

I met him briefly at Bangface and drunkenly arranged an interview that never happened, but I can at least vouch that he is a good egg - however hammered he was that night.

His new tune 'Take You' draws together elements of funky, house, bassline and even a touch of grime. Oh, and there's a lovely little piano breakdown reminiscent of Jason Tyler's 'Run Around' from a couple of years ago.

The video was directed and produced by T&B's very own Patrick 'The Captain' Rood, and Edited/DPed by Matt Canada of Control Alt Media. The remixes come from Drop The Lime, Nadastrom, Lee Mortimer and a host of others!

AC SLATER — TAKE YOU FEAT. NINJASONIK

New Drop The Lime tune!

Drop The Lime has fired out a new tune as part of the new 'Heavy Bass Champions Of The World' series before he gets down to all his remix and production duties. This first volume is a club-friendly bassfest full of the usual wobbly basslines and whatnot.


You can grab the little rascal at Beatport, Amazon, iTunes and Turntable Lab.

You should also subscribe to the 'Smashcast' on iTunes for a series of podcasts from the Trouble & Bass team. The second episode sees Kanji Kinetic take to the mp3 decks of steel.

New AC Slater mix for Annie Nightingale's Radio 1 Show

AC Slater has recorded a mixtape for Annie Nightingale's Radio 1 show. The mix contains mainly new tracks and remixes by Mr. Slater as well as a couple of old favourites from the Trouble & Bass crew. Judging by the tracklisting and the amount of new stuff, at the very least we can expect a new Trouble & Bass compilation in the near future.

The mix also features a couple of new faces in the form of P-Money and Ladybox, who I'm sure will be bringing out their own releases very soon. I'm a little late of the mark with this one so you won't be able to stream it from BBC iPlayer anymore, but below is the download link for the mp3.

Tracklist:
1. Udachi - "P-Funk Skank" [Party Like Us Records]
2. AC Slater - "Take You" feat Ninjasonik [Trouble & Bass]

8. Heavyfeet - "I Spy" (AC Slater Remix) [Stamp! Music]
9. AC Slater - "Calm Down Part 2" [Trouble & Bass]
10. P-Money - "Left the Room"

New Little Jinder Remix EP!

I'm a bit late getting to this but Trouble & Bass staple, Little Jinder, has a new remix EP of Youth Blood out today yesterday. The EP comes with remixes by 12th Planet & Finch, Sharkslayer, Bok Bok, Rico Tubbs, Chateau LaTeuf and The Squire Of Gothos. The original is a really chilled synthy bit of electro, sort of like The Knife but more like being cuddled by Björk. In a good way, of course. If anyone remembers her first single 'Polyhedron' (which was perfectly remixed by Supra1) you'll know she has a really beautiful voice and her productions knock the shit out of the others'.

Trouble & Bass is putting out some really amazing records at the minute. If you haven't heard of them, you probably don't get out much. It's owned by Drop The Lime and is absolutely DOMINATING the New York electro/bassline/dubstep scene (and now the UK too).

Seriously though, go to Juno and download it. But first, have a butchers' at the original:
