Nero



Nero are currently an unstoppable force in the DnB and Dubstep scene. Nero have  consistently been producing quality track after track.


A Drum and Bass remix of Calvin Harris produced "Holiday". Far more energy and   euphoria than the original. Vocals are slowed and trance synths smoothly blend into the rest of the track.


There has been a huge amount of La Roux remixes milling around the blogosphere over the past few months. Some have become bigger than the original, this remix has the potential to do that. Like the Skream remix of "In for the Kill" this track carries an underground ravey atmosphere Which fits in with La Roux's unique voice almost perfectly.

(New) Burial




"One of the greatest artists of the decade" is back with new material. Anonymous South Londoner Will Bevan, or Burial has a new track called "Fostercare" which features on the new hyperdub compilation. What is so good about Burials tracks is that they can relate to actual situations. His tracks ooze a nostalgic sense to them which is completely phenomenal. The emotions really come though when listening to his work, creating urban landscapes as they pass.

He has a very interesting production method that creates this sound; Using vocals from other tracks and warping them up and down until they become genderless, sampling a lighter flicking on and the gun pellets from a video game, using them as drum patterns. Just some of the techniques he uses to create a completely unique sound.

Because of Burials notoriety, the record label have been censoring anything that pops up, so the nearest thing I have found to a release is from this blog. "Fostercare" is by no means his strongest track, but is still worth a listen.
