We were very pleased to have two great guests up on NTS with us this week, Om Unit of Cosmic Bridge and Laurent Fintoni of Rhythm Incursions. Both have joined us once before, but unfortunately last time the recording for Om Unit failed, so we are happy to have this one documented properly for your ears!

Big thanks to both guys for passing through, was a really really fun show - going from Electronic / Hip-Hop to Jungle and back again! We are back in two weeks with special guest in the studio, Handbook, as well as a guest mix from Ta-ku.

Slugabed - Sex

Can’t believe Mixmag giving away this heat from Slugabed. This is probably my favourite track of the year so far. Seriously, if you don’t love this slice of electric funk you need your noggin examined! Got me properly hyped for his forthcoming album on Ninja Tune.

Pixelord - Love is (Hypha Remix)

Today our buddy Pixelord dropped a fantastic new LP on Hyperboloid Records full of remixes! The release features some of his best tracks remixed by many of our favorite artists and friends including Deft, Kuhn, Hourglass Sea, Naive Machine and more!

We are offering an exclusive free track from the release by Hypha, a bubbling footwork inspired rhythm which is enough to get anyone up out of their seats! Read on for a stream of the whole release and a link to purchase the other tracks.

Abjo - This Is Just A Test

This new beat tape from Abjo came out yesterday and it’s full of bangers!

Old&New. Wild&Smooth. Should hold ya’ll over until the next couple projects drop soon. Remember, this is just a test…

We’re big fans of Abjo and you should be too, if you’ve not get his back catalouge check out these.

Lost Twin - Birds

Been lagging pretty hard this week with posting up releases, but ya know, busy times and all that. The main thing is that I’ve remembered to post up this AMAZING release from Lost Twin, entitled Birds.

I’d actually never heard of this Brighton beat sleuth prior to this release, but the early preview on his Soundcloud got me excited for the release, and I’ve had it on rotation ever since it dropped.

Mo Kolours - EP2: Banana Wine

We love Mo Kolours, so different and unique. As the press release states, his music is an intriguing blend of ‘soul, dub, hip-hop, house, afro-latin percussion, Mauritian Sega music and much more’. This new EP is really doing it for me on this Sunday afternoon, check it out and cop a vinyl if you’re feeling it as much as I am!

vlek: We’ve decided to start a new series of digital releases to better represent the incredibly creative people we’re surrounded with. “VLEKD” is the cat.nr of this series.

All of the releases in this series will be free or at ‘fan-set price’ with no minimum.
The first one is a FREE WANDA GROUP FULL LENGTH (22:44): CLEANERS.

WANDA GROUP was formerly known as DEM HUNGER, who also featured on our very first and acclaimed “AMAI” 7” (alongside CUPP CAVE).

This 8-track album announces a WANDA GROUP vinyl release on VLEK this autumn. → DOWNLOAD

Wanda Group (Formerly Dem Hunger) joins us again on NTS on April 23rd. You can listen back to the last visit here.

Shlohmo - So Spicy

A bit of spiced Shlo to end your working week, you know this was a gem and if you don’t then grab it while you can!

In December 2011 we re-iussed Shlohmo’s debut ‘Shlo-fi’ on vinyl. ‘So Spicy’ was a bonus track to the digital version before, and we sort-of forgot about it. Here’s the re-up, with one kilo of free downloads. Be quick!

Kavsrave - No More (Slow Jams)

God fucking damn, Kavsrave killed it with this one!

YSK on NTS with special guest Kuhn

Download: YSK on NTS with special guest Kuhn

It was a pleasure to have Kuhn, one of the main guys behind Astro Nautico and creator of the fine Slime Beach EP join us for this weeks show.

Visiting the UK from New York over the past two weeks he has happened to play Fabric, Streets of Beige and Rhythm Factory, before joining us to drop some exclusive new material. A full tracklist follows on below, and as you can see it’s filled with some absolute gems. Massive shout to Bennett for passing through and we hope to see you again soon.

In two weeks time we have Om Unit & Laurent Fintoni joining us for what is set to be another cracker, stay tuned for that one.

The show starts 5 minutes in, apologies for the odd jumpy needle for the first half of the show.
