Jakwob - Here With Me



British dubstep producer and DJ Jakwob, or James Jacob, releases his first single this week, taken from his upcoming debut album. He was shot into our consciousness through heavy remixes of Ellie Goulding's 'Under The Sheets' and 'Starry Eyed', and has since remixed the likes of Katie Melua, M.I.A and Temper Trap. This single, released on an EP with accompanying track synonymous with his sound 'Scare The Snare', is a chilled version of himself. It's interesting production, soothing vocal screaming, atmospheric strings and cheeky use of instrumentation combines to form a harrowing narrative with a happy ending. Enjoy!

Ahu - To:Love



This is almost a meditative release, which transcends through the final product, through the vocal and through the lyrics - It's a downtempo soul song with a simplicity that arouses complexities. It's not the most chirpy of songs admittedly, but there is light at the end of a relationship-ending tunnel, where calmness ensues. A fantastic remix by Dimlite backs up this release of fascinating Turkish singer Ahu. One to watch (type her name into Google and she's being watched by the blogosphere!) Enjoy. Plus, free download of the track is here http://ahumusic.bandcamp.com.

Erol Alkan and Gonzalez - Never Stop

Where has Erol been all our lives? Well, off around the world doing live tours and spreading his dirty love. Through music, may we add. Ahem. He teams up with Chilly Gonzalez to provide a return to Erol's sound and a tune sure to find it's way on to the late night dancefloor near you. It's a rework of Gonzalez's April release and adds an oomph that tickles the stomach. Enjoy.
