Akabu feat. Alex Mills "Everybody Wants Something" was an enormous tune for many in 2013 and is still getting played by big name dj's in bustling nightclubs around the world.

Now we give you some off the chain/on point/un-believable remixes from Kolombo, Rhemi & Giom. We're not going to describe the nuances of each remix and highlight why the aforementioned big name djs like dropping the track in their sets at cool clubs/festivals/corporate events but all are pretty bloody good...

We Are Skint Presents... X-Press 2

DJ MIx March 2015

You may already know Steve Cobby: one of Hull's most talented residents, co-founder of Fila Brazillia and a chronic remixer/music maker. During 30 years of musical service he's forged remixes for acts as brilliantly diverse as Radiohead, Busta Rhymes and A Certain Ration. Déclassé, his own imprint is also home to 2014's critically acclaimed  Saudade and the upcoming (and brilliant)  Everliving LP.

"We Start Over" is an International Feel baby though - the result of Cobby and vocalist Trudie Dawn Smith combining for a bout of Balearic bliss. The ‘Private Acid Mix’ comes from two of house music's current treasures, Gerd Janson and Phillip Lauer a.k.a Tuff City Kids, holding nothing back and dropping the 303 in a fine style with looped and twisted vocal snippets.

This live DJ mix is called “Spirit of Dub”, it's something I did for Dommune in Tokyo about a month ago while I was in Japan. This particular piece could have just as easily been titled “Connect The Dots”, as it goes the gamut from vintage Reggae Dub to Dance Hall, some Digidub then turns into mad Jungle beats , Drum&Bass and of course a good dose of some of my current trippy Dubstep faves. In my mind at least, it really helps bring a certain vibe into focus, not that I made any attempts to pick super-obscure choons that only trainspotters would know. Rather it was more about feeling that energy when all of these different tracks - many of my faves -  get mixed together live as they are here. 

There is no question that ‘bass culture’ has always had a profound influence on my approach to sound. But especially as of late, and in the context of Deep Space’s dubby agenda it’s become apparent that beyond fleeting trends I remain utterly attracted by this energy, completely drawn and fascinated by what it represents. 

For whatever reason I have recently been getting back to lots of Junglist tunes, probably due to how timely I felt the “Special Request” album was when it came out a year ago, and how it managed to reawaken this fascination with all of the futuristic mad drum programming some of these records were famous for.

Listening back to the mix, I can’t help but get the sense that a lot of what attracts me in all of this is that it feels as if it has such a direct connection to a strong Sci-Fi and Cyberpunk aesthetic, including a rather rebellious ‘take-no-prisoners’ attitude which is quite endearing and allows the listener to get ‘lost in the bass’. 

 In the end, it’s really all about how you feel when you play the stuff, and this one left no doubt in my mind. It also felt like a perfect way to conclude an amazing year, and set the stage for what’s to come in the next one in a way some might not expect in the least.

Here's my set at Cocktail d'Amore 6-8 August 2016.
I went on around 4am Sunday morning til about 8am.
This is the entire set. A bit on the tuff-er side early but ending in a classic disco finale. 
Great crowd and hosted by some special people.
CDA is one of the best parties on the planet. 
Thanks for having me.>>>> :)

It’s fair to say that Kai Alce is an underrated artist. Not only does he turn out a consistent stream of tunes on top labels, but he also oversees NDATL Muzik, one of the most fawned over deep house labels out there. He has actually been active since 2002, and his heartfelt brand of house has always embodied elements of New York, Detroit and Chicago, as well as his Atalanta homeland. It sounds unmistakably alive and irresistibly soulful and has come on labels like FXHE, Mahogani Music and Finale Sessions. As a lynchpin of the Atlanta scene, he and his peers are only just starting to get some of the wider recognition they deserve. 

The mix he offers us here showcases his impeccable taste and takes in jazzy house styles, loose party jams and vocal groovers that are deliciously deep. Romantic and richly coloured, it’s a set for lovers of laidback grooves and proper musicality. Given the time of year, the whole thing seems to glow like Christmas lights on a festive winter night, so stick it on, warm up some mulled wine and get on down.
