Free Beats

Once again we come with more freebies to bag for yourself.

Up first is the mighty duo from NZ, Truth with a storming track. ‘Dangerous’ features Yayne on vocals. Its deep but the smooth voice rounds off the edges. Bag it.

A big and varied free package from Ovrkl got our attention in a big way. Grab the whole thing off bandcamp here

And big up Annie Mac for this freebie which was made available as part of her Free Music Mondays feature. Scrufizzer is shows us his lyrical skills on a fresh sounding beat.

More great music from Sangam – 4 tracks of sub zero vibes.

From the excellent Mad Decent label comes this jeffrees release from Bwana – Tight sounds.

Moving on we have a bass heavy number in ‘Still Love You’ by Heims Noise. Hailing from Sheffield and you know we love our Northern producers, pick this up as we’re not sure how long it’s going to be available for.

Finally there’s a frankly awesome Sade remix of ‘Pearls’ by duo Ab-Cent and Elski. Download limit already reached on Ab-Cents soundcloud page but theres still chance to bag it from Elski. Dig it.

Earl Grey*

On the Robot Bodypop show we like to feature up and coming producers and this week Mancunian Earl Grey caught our ears with a little freebie he popped off. Checking out his other tunes was a treat. Soulfull vibes are present through out and each track making the best use of space available. Smooth chords and use of harmonies make these deep tracks instant favourites in ‘ere. ‘Untitled 145’ and ‘Lone Wavelength’ are personal favourites. Check out the tracks on his Soundcloud and also pick up the mighty Amen roller ‘Trapped Nerve’ featured on this weeks Robot Bodypop show.

Free Tunes

It’s a bit of a giveaway extravaganza this week. In fact there isn’t even wriggling space as we have packed  our mixes  jam tight with.. tight jams (yeah wot) and gathered them all here just for you the listeners. We want you to know that we care.

First up its some sweet 2009 vibes from Sleeper named ‘Blame It On The Voices’. Moody and deep as you would expect and it comes alongside 3 other jams that you can pick up from the Hedmuk blog.

Pick up all 4 here @ the Hedmuk blog

Next up its some soulful 140 vibes from Canada with the mighty ‘Stroke’ by SOUL Muu-Szik. Summer vibes on this one. Bag it and check out his other cuts there on Soundcloud.

Moving on it’s some tit-for-tat remix shenanigans from Darquan and Amit. Amit up first remixing the seminal ‘Warrior Dance’ by Darquan

And then Darquan up with a rolling badman take of Amits ‘Dirty White Trash’

Neither likely to feature on Soundcloud for very long but theres a ton of sites with links to either tune so Google could be your friend if they disappear from there.

Next it’s dirty 180bpm business from newcomer Iant. aka Ian Taylor – He’s done this VIP of the ‘Oil Slick’ cut and made it available for free via rudebass.com. It’s some techy minimal vibes – grab it here.

Next up, more of the high BPMs from the legendary Concord Dawn who have just not stopped making banging drum and bass since their heyday in the late 90’s and early 00’s. Grab ‘ElectroCute’ on soundcloud.

And finally, another newcomer on the Robot Bodypop – With a name like the Mad Zion-tist we really did not know what to expect. ‘Mind Driven’ completely blew us away. It’s already one of my favourites.

More freeness on the way from Killian once he’s cleared up the days excrement and tears.

Free Tunes

Just a couple of free cuts from me this week – First up is Riddlez with some persisently head rocking dubstep. ‘4, 3, 2, 1 Let’s Go’ jars you to the bone and I love it. But wait, it was only free for a limited time and he took it off his page already!! You’ll just have to listen to the show to see what you missed. Hey ho, I’m sure it will pop up again sometime – In the meantime here is a 72MB folder full of his other free dubs. Dang!

And just this week the legends that are C.R.S.T. have opened up their 2010 Futurestep EP for download free on soundcloud, seeing as you can no longer buy it anywhere. That’s nice that.

And it what seems to be a growing trend, Mancunian producers Biome are also having a clear out. This track Specimen was made in 2010 and never saw a release, so with it sitting around on his hard drive possibly not doing a whole lot why not unleash the forgotten beast for free? The tune falls quite comfortably into the ‘hench’ category. Grab it.

Next up Ghostek offers up this haunting 2-step number ‘Trust Me’ as a farewell bid to this sound that he’s made his own over the last few years. Looking forward to seeing what he’s going to come up with next.

Finally we have Mancunian supergroup North Base with a killer remix of the No Lay track ‘Drugs’ featuring Ms Dynamite. Hopefully you’ll be lucky to catch these guys live bring a 140bpm stomping set.
