Saturday Snacks #6
I do love a burrito, in fact all Mexican food. All the food groups (and chilli sauce) is one easily handled package is a sure fire winner every time. For those local to Glasgow you must check out Taco Mazama, you won’t regret it. Anyway, enough of the snacks, more of the tunes. Zomby signed [...]
Boiler Room – Om Unit 45min Mix
We love the Boiler Room here at the Labs. They bring you top quality guests every week streamed into you living room or wherever you have your laptop. There is so much on there but this weeks session and mix from Om Unit grabbed our attention. He has been ramping his sound up of late [...]
Deadboy – Here EP
Deadboy is back with the “Here EP”, his long awaited new release on his spiritual home Numbers. While he has been busy touring all over the world, these tunes have been bubbling under in the Serato crates of the most in the know DJ’s. There are the usual warm, welcoming percussive sounds and vocal slithers [...]
Jacques Greene – Another Girl EP
One of our favourite producers Jacques Greene is back on one of our favourite labels, LuckyMe. After the massive success of his releases last year the boy from Montreal is hot property and this EP confirms why. Slick arrangement, high end production and a love of analogue sounds make “Another Girl” everything we would expect. [...]
Kahn – Like We Used To/Helter Skelter
Bristol label Punch Drunk bring some new blood to our attention with local producer Kahn busting out their first release of 2011. “Like We Used To” is driven by a crisp warped vocal in the middle of funky bass and beats and a covering of early 80′s synth. “Helter Skelter” on the other hand is [...]
LuckyMe – Christmas Mix Series
You may have missed this over the festive season so we thought it worth sharing again. Our good friends at LuckyMe decided to curate a 12 Days of Christmas mix series. The quality came from not only label names such and rising stars Dema and Ango but also names such as Untold and Roska. I [...]

Cliff – On The Fly Vol 1
Having been very lazy on the mix front and being shown up by the number Paul has been doing, it’s time for me to get a wee mix series on the go. Not having as much time as I would like, the name for the series came very quickly (some of the mixing also testified [...]

SLACKK – Theme from Slackk EP
Hot on the heals of the Jessie Ware and SBTRKT release, Numbers have this pseudo house monster coming fast on the outside lane. SLACKK brings us three dark and upfront tracks which cross various genre borders to produce a tribal like feel. We may also have a new genre in there with his self titled [...]
