Love the beat with that riff. Everything goes together so nicely 

I used to love the original " i got the blues " and was thinking how to used a sample of it , you did right I would have dreamed it

DJ Snatch - Lena In The Water

Back up! Back up! Beatnik City is back with the stone cold solid gold. Craig Charles has been hammering this LP like the boss he is. Northern Beats Vol 1 is unleashed on your badasses like a drunk and happy bear, crashing across your front room in a cloud of talc and breathtaking rare-bare dance moves, apologising with a raised paw for the massive destruction caused. You can't be mad, he’s so cute and cool!

Turn off the telly, get up! Down a gin and join bear, Yes yes, it’s strictly dance o’clock! We want to see your casino knee slide… Yeeeeehar!

2 Shaka Loves You - Soul On Fire [CLIP]

Don Covay - See Saw (umbo edit)

The Allergies have developed a reputation for producing dancefloor assaulting 45's that regularly sell out and this release is no different as You Wouldn't Know fuses upbeat soul jams with their trademark energetic breaks driving underneath the catchiest of vocal hooks.

'I just want to get funky for you today' is the opening statement on Special People and that's exactly what they do as this B-side keeps the party going. Supplied with copious amounts of percussion breaks, jazz flute and a sweet bassline in a groove that could make even a statue dance, there is more funk packed into this track than an out of date stilton.

All killer and no filler all the way through on this 7inch so probably best you do yourself and your record collection a favour and sort one out.

What Would We Do

Another addition to this series of edits. I was looping the start of Golden Lady at a gig recently and mixing it with something off Keep Up and it seemed like the right thing to do.

I love this track deeply so I hope you will forgive me chopping it - it is honestly done with love. Nothing could improve the original - I was simply taking it somewhere else for DJing purposes. x
Check out my other edits on soundcloud - two Merry Claytons to bag...

Stevie Wonder - Golden Lady (Scrimshire Edit)

Well on the 25th Anniversary of this classic album they re-released it and in there was a version with just bass and vocals of this wonderpiece. 

The bass of Bakithi Kumalo is INCREDIBLE and deserves more notice. Although I'm not sure a dancefloor can sustain their interest for 5-6 minutes of bass and no beats - so I'm providing you with this educational re-edit. Enjoy in your more Balearic moments.

Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes (Scrimshire Bass Edit)

Family [LNTG Rework]

As soon as I heard this I knew I needed a version to play out! It may be from an Ikea advert but what a great record, definitely deserves to be a top 10 hit. Buy it on iTunes - http://tinyurl.com/d3zonk8
