BAILE FUNK SANY PITBULL ~ Baile Funk Masters #2 (Man Recordings) : 12" : Classic Baile Funk : $25 Rio's crowned master, DJ Sany Pitbull, issues four instrumental funk classics on Man Recordings. Authentic gold that mixes gunshots and Kraftwerk, samba and LISTEN: Beatch Brasil | Kraftfunk | Tribos | Troca-Aplica

CROOKERS ~ Funk Mundial #3 (Man Recordings) : 12" : Baile Funk Thump House: $22 Much blogged about Italian duo Crookers put forth their first widely distributed record. This one clinches the sound that attracted the hordes in the first place: Switch-esqe throbbing house with snippets of funk carioca MCs catching a ride. Whereas their first tracks were sampled cuts, these outings continue in the Funk Mundial series' tradition of acutally linking European producers with Rio's vocal talent. Three huge tunes, with the bare acappellas included for your own next-level baile edit fun. This one's sure to be a sell-off. LISTEN: Soca Ali Baba ft. MC Dandao | Para De Gracinha ft. MC Leka | Atomic Baile Boy | Soca Ali Baba (Acappella) | Para De Gracinha (Acappella) CLUBBIE CLUB CLUB ELECTRO ETC MIA ~ Boyz (Produced by SWITCH) (XL Recordings) : Very Limited One-Sided 12" : Weddy Weddy Club Banger $20 Maya Arulpragasam meets Switch and 100 dancing boys for a cranking kick-off to the new record. Collectors one-sided 'white-label' 12" single, pressed real loud and issued in extremely limited numbers. Just look to find any of her first album's 12"s and you'll get the story. Plus, its nothing but a heater. LISTEN: Boyz JUSTICE ~ † : Gatefold 2LP : Electro / Disco : $42 A historical LP has landed. On a giant cross-shaped starship enterprise guided by two skinny, genius-laden, Frenchmen. With an opus like †, Justice will not be forgotten. Most markedly, the album won't play out like a collection of the bangin' singles they have served us already. Instead it switches each of them into a new and complete vision when placed longside 6 new tracks. This one deserves you. LISTEN: Genesis | Let There Be Light | D.A.N.C.E. | Newjack | Phantom | Phantom Pt II | Valentine | Tthhee Ppaarrttyy ft UFFIE | DVNO | Stress | Waters Of Nazareth | One Minute To Midnight MR OIZO ~ Transexual | Patrick 122 (Ed Banger) : 12" : French Electro : $22 Mr Oizo goes on a trip with Michael Jackson. Or a re-incarnation of Michael. Or...whoever, he's hangin' with, they're reasonably tweaked. In a conceptual way...that can still majorly turn out dancefloors. The two heavyweight stayers are the ones that many of you have been asking for since we were exposed to 'em by recent Ed Banger touring artists. Y'know that 'Asexual, Bi-sexual one' (Transexual) and 'the sax one' (Patrick 122) . The wailing chop'n'loop saxaphone solo on Patrick 122 is the stuff of legends. Definitely indulge in Mr Waaahhhhzzoohhh! LISTEN: Patrick 122 | Transexual | Ovoma | Hello | Blind Concerto SINDEN & COUNT OF MONTE CRISTAL ~ Beeper / Everybody Rocking EP (Counterfeet) : 12" : Flipped Bassline UK House : $22 These guys. Phew. Telling you, this army of Sinden, Count of Monte Cristal ('Herve'), Trevor Lovey and Dave 'Switch' Taylor productions are finally making the club's mainroom exciting again! Together they bring enough of the popular signs of today's late Saturday night out - house kicks and shakes, bouncing bass, electro squelch-synths - to get the masses stepping... but they proceed to get that shit live. On these four cuts, Sinden & the Count laydown vocal-heavy rap samples, humourous breakdowns and joyous basslines this is not just drug music its DRUNK music. Honestly, the rave can finally get crunk. But ignoring those stupid tags, just go check out already (or so soon to be) certified smash hits, Beeper and Everybody Rocking. They've been long awaited on wax. Kudurolicious is a perhaps mistakenly chosen Fergie sample riding a killer percussive kuduro pace. We Don't Give A Damn brings the grilled-up Lil Jon up to double time and slams it hard. Counterfeet is the most OFFICIAL bootleg. LISTEN: Beeper | Everybody Rocking | Kudurolicious | We Don't Give A Damn U-TERN ~ The Cookie Jar (Beatstreet) : 12" : Electro Blends : $22 Hollerboard hits the shelves again. This time, it's Vancouver's U-Tern making 'everything' playable: electo-oriented remixes of E-40's White Gurl, Marvin Gaye, Spank Rock and some baile funked breaks. Very handy. LISTEN: White Gurl | Back To Trinidad | Far Left (Electro Boogie mix) | Give It Up SURKIN ~ Fireworks Refired ft RIOT IN BELGUIM / TACTEEL / DJ SLUGO RMXs (Institubes) : 12" : French Electro House / Ghettotech: $22 From the Institubes desk in France: "20 year-old Surkin comes from southern France but lives and works in Paris. Previously on the Surkin show: Scrawny youngster produces handful of tracks spread on two 12" by greedy label 2 Institubes: Ghetto Obsession EP and Radio Fireworks. and Here's the Radio Fireworks Revisited 12" : Remixes on this record straddle a couple of boundaries between dance scenes. Surkin delivers a new and improved version of future house classic “Radio Fireworks”—punchier, fattened with generous helpings of white noise—and a new-ish track, “Kiss ‘n’ Horns”, which turns lover’s lane anthem “Kiss And Fly” into a jacking house monster, complete with horn breakdown. Institubes O.G. Tacteel beams us back to the golden age of filtered house with sun-kissed vocals and plane sound effects, while Dance Mania Don DJ Slugo (himself!) turns “And You Too” into a ghetto house party starter which launches into full Juke mode after the breakdown. AND: Aussies Riot In Belgium (of “The Acid Never Lies” and “La Musique” fame) deliver a MASSIVE, shockingly effective, big room remix of “Radio Fireworks”, with the build-up to end all build-ups. Melbourne, Chicago, Paris. Vocal tracks included as locked grooves." REPEAT! VOCAL TRACKS INCLUDED AS LOCKED GROOVES! GEEEEEKS, Get armed! Institubes doing it right! LISTEN: Radio Fireworks (Surkin 909 Edit) | Radio Fireworks (Riot In Belgium RMX) | And You Too (DJ Slugo RMX) | Kiss'n'Horns (Tacteel RMX) GRIME/HIP-HOP DIZZEE RASCAL ~ Maths & English (XL Recordings) : CD : UK Hip-Hop/Grime : $28 In Oz, everyone knows grime's pinup boy, Dizzee Diz. For his third album it seems his making sure the US know him. A collection of slightly more restrained spitting over straight-ahead beats ensure that he's set to clash any American rap competition. The awesome Where's Da G's with Houston's legendary UGK (Pimp C and Bun B) should confirm that. As should his mid-tempo Bmore break expletive throw, Pussyhole. Solid record innit. LISTEN: Bubbles | Da Feelin' | Excuse Me Please | Flex | Hardback (Industry) | Paranoid | Pussyhole (Oldskool) | Sirens | Suk My Dick | Temptation | U Can't Tell Me Nuffin' | Wanna Be ft Lily Allen | Where's Da G's ft UGK | World Outside WILEY ~ Playtime is Over (Big Dada) : CD : Grime : $32 Grime godfather Wiley sneaks in a deserved album on Big Dada (clouded by the well-hyped Dizzee release). Lots of awesome eski beats from the man himself, plus story telling for days. Get it told the right way.
