Uproot Andy supplied SF’s XLR8R with this incredible mix that bounces across funky, dancehall, and his usual Latino madness. TNT dropping into R1 Ryders? YES PLEASE! (Oh and there may even be a Mixpak release and a Dre Skull remix in there!)
‘Rum & Redbull’ couldn’t really get any better, but now they’ve added Busta Rhymes to the remix line-up. Guess what Bus-a-bus is drinking?
This song was released in December but screamed summer: it even had Brazilian carnival girls in the video! I shouldn’t be too hard on the song because the remixes of it are all stellar. The dubby Guinness Punch remix is one of the best things that Donaeo has ever done. This week the other remix package came out including the B. Traits offering, which takes the steel pan carnival ending of the original and extends it for over 4 minutes. It’s like a heightened flashback to standing near the Westway on August bank holiday weekend at Notting Hill Carnival.
You can get both EPs over at the Digital Soundboy.

Aside from spending hours of their time telling people how to pronounce and spell their name, Munich dance heads Schlachthofbronx have been mad busy in the last few months, putting together some of the heaviest bass you have heard. We asked one of the crew, Jakob, how they manage it, what’s coming up and what’s making them blow their homemade airhorns.
(Big thanks to Schlachthofbronx for taking the time out of their holiday to answer our questions!)
