Once again we are lacing you with stacks of quality future beats at the good grace of the artists involved.

Clueless‘ work rate is staggering, and considering this I guess it’s no surprise he has managed to put a full album of his dubstep creations together and released it for free. He has significant releases on labels like L2S recordings and Night Audio which you should definitely check for.

Amon Tobin‘s Surge gets remixed by Two Fingers – You can grab it by putting your email on his mailing list at www.amontobin.com

Regular listeners will know of our love for the old school, and hip hop was our musical bread and butter growing up. This updated version of Das Efx‘s classic definitely gets our vote. Vibes in abundance!

 

 

And now for some hype old skool vibes from Edinburgh resident Hostage. This guys output is just incredible. His soundcloud page is brimming with goodness and plenty more free tunes all of the highest quality. His new Listen EP came out at the end of last month and it is a banger! Make sure you check it.

We’ve had tracks from My Nu Leng on the show before. Deep techy dubstep bangers are what these guys breathe. Check their latest freebie here.

Jacques Greene – Concealer EP

If you are looking for a badman producer, Canadian Jacques Greene certainly resembles the e-fit.

Greene’s creations are always up front and ear catching – he has a knack of plucking teasingly familiar snippets out of old R&B or House tunes and recombining them into something fresh and unusual.

The highlight for me is the collaboration with Scottish minimal dubstep producer Koreless – If I was asked to come up with the most unlikely musical collaboration between two contemporary bass music producers of all time – I still wouldn’t have considered putting these two together – their styles are that diverse. Such a great feeling to hear their distinct individual soundscapes working perfectly together on the one track. Believe me, you need to bag this.

Kungfused – Something Special 4 U EP

Having signed ourselves up to all kinds of mailing lists and distributed our email address (robotbodypop@gmail.com) indiscriminately across the interwebs we sometimes lose track of all the promos coming in. Every now and then I will be sifting through the crap and the chaos that is the Robot Bodypop inbox folder and find a gem. Like this.

This was released to Bandcamp on January 30th (no info of any other release at the moment). It’s a 6 track EP and you can grab track 6 for free. Track 4 is the Neokortex remix of Toxic People which is featured on this weeks show – the intro is absolutely killer. Hope you like.
