Dj Rolando – Jaguar (Jeff Mills mix)

Today sees Glasgow’s Rubadub Records celebrate 18 years in the business with a special event at the Sub Club tonight featuring Jeff Mills (more on that this afternoon!). So we thought it’d be apt for today’s classic to be from their old friends – Underground Resistance.

Rolando’s “Jaguar” from 99 was probably one of UR’s most commercially successful moments and it’s the track that sticks in the mind of many from the UR back catalogue. So sit back, enjoy and raise a glass to Rubadub!

Space Ranger – Superstring EP

After the success of the “Star Wash EP” which we covered here, Space Ranger bring along more new boogie weapons from their interstellar playground. This should hopefully fend of the space sickness of waiting for the release of their debut album due out in October 2010.

On top of the quality original tracks we have cosmic disco galore from Rayko as well as Ajello on the reworks. Pick this up from Juno now on Lovemonk.

Wira – Animals & 13 Times

Information on this new producer is very sparse, all we know is that the tunes are quality. Enjoy the mystique around Wira and get the tunes down as quick as them there internet pipes will carry them.

First up we have “Animals” – a big bassy house/dubstep hybrid – packed with eerie atmosphere, garage-y drums, ragga vocal snippets and huge sub bass. It’s a bit of a belter

Next up is “13 Times” – a 25 minute wander through the mind of Wira – more of the same dubsteppy house shenanigans, taking in elements of classic house and throwing it in the mix alongside dark electronica and a reassuringly excessive amount of sub bass.

Max Richter – Infra

New material from Max Richter is always greeted with open arms here and “Infra” may prove to be his best work yet. The album began as the score to a ballet, written back in November 2008, now extended and given life as a full album project.

From the opening tracks radio fuzz (which plays a part throughout), through to the use of strings and atmosphere that hark back to the greatness of his “Blue Notebooks” album, this is an absolutely joy to listen to. Richter creates a space and dynamic that almost becomes instantly recognisable but that stands apart from his other work. A few piano pieces drift in and out throughout and from start to finish this is an absolutely beautiful album.

I’ve picked out a couple of tracks below to give you an idea but I’d highly recommend heading over to Boomkat and picking up a copy of the whole shebang asap.

Machine Drum – Many Faces EP

We are so glad that Machinedrum and the LuckyMe collective have teamed up to bring us the Many Faces EP. Jam packed with early electronic production values this EP fronts up with quaking bass and acid tinges while squeezing in Hip Hop and dubby beats. There is still room however to fit in more melodic vocal samples and pleasing synth chords. Classic genre bending stuff. On top of that there is a remix of “Carry The Weight” by Bok Bok that will be wrecking dance floors for months to come.

Have a listen to the EP samples below and then head over to Boomkat to pick up a copy. You can also check out magazine site URB to pick up a free copy of “Lemme f_ck it”. Bonus!
