Wachs Lyrical (Regent) – The Long Walk South

 “The Long Walk South”, with it’s unique blend of seductive, deep vocals and a non-trivial bassline, is, first of all, a brilliant attempt to think over the UK bass scene outbreak through a prism of the American soul. With 2 other swaggerish solo tracks, a chopped & screwed remix from Kingthing, a halfstep wonder refix from Mista Men and a garage-rave mutant edit from Sentinels, it might seem this release is perfectly balanced to please any audience.

We are deleriously happy this week with the discovery that The Long Walk South is now out as a free release – This is an unbelievable giveaway from eastern european label Wicked Bass Records – perhaps my favourite so far on this blog. Preview all 6 tracks here then grab the DL from mediafire.

Eliphino – More Than Me EP

Following on from realeases on Manchester based Hoya Hoya and Giles Peterson’s Brownswood label, London based producer/dj – Eliphino – has found his finest form to date with this new EP ‘More Than Me’. Low down, deep and dirty house music for the clubs, released on limited edition vinyl via somethinksounds on Oct 31st. The full EP features three low slung dancefloor bangers – ‘More Than Me’, ‘Devoted’ and ‘I-Played’ – fuzzy, warm and atmospheric. Eliphino switches up the style but never fails to dazzle.

The hype has been building for the past 3 months for this, Eliphino’s most recent release on Some Think Records. The vaguely anthemic title track sets us up nicely for the late night club vibes on I Played and the deep yet catchy 2step flavours of the final track Devoted which features on this weeks show. One for the bag which will be rocking many a club dancefloor for months to come. Preview below, then buy.
