Jamie Jones is back with a killer release for Crosstown Rebels. New single ‘Moan & Groan’ is a vintage Jones production full of bounce, quirks and sex appeal. It's joined by two remixes of ‘Tonight In Tokyo’ from Jamie’s album of secret weapons ‘Tracks From The Crypt’, released last summer. Both showcasing their own sharp, signature styles, Ben Westbeech’s darker alias Breach drops the deep bass while French house icons Cassius introduce epic chords and sky­scraping synth lines.

Jamie Jones is renowned for his innovative music; his cross genre band, Hot Natured; and his pioneering label, Hot Creations ­ now with the off­shoot Hot Trax. Author of two solo albums for Crosstown Rebels, Jamie has also delivered a number of scene-­defining anthems including ‘Summertime’, his remix of Green Velvet’s ‘Flash’ and Azari & III’s ‘Hungry For The Power’. Plus Stunning reworks of The XX include ‘Crystalised’ and latest hit ‘Sunset’.

With a Hot Natured album due this year on Hot Creations / FFrr / Warners, Jamie is illuminating the niche world of underground house music, most recently proven with the band’s sold out debut live shows at Brixton Academy. Easily one of the most hard working DJs on the planet, Jamie’s endless touring schedule includes nearly every major city and festival in the world including such spectacles as Glastonbury, Tomorrow Land, and Burning Man, as well as highly esteemed clubs like Warung, Fabric, and Womb. In addition, he holds his own Ibiza party, Paradise every summer at DC­10.

This is a 96K version..
Out Today on Beatport http://www.beatport.com/release/kill-me/1090628

Second single from Riva Starr's sophomore album "Hand in Hand"... an eclectic double a-side dealing squarely with modern society's burning predicaments... Life, Love, Drugs, Nature and the Pursuit of Happiness (or lack thereof) all rolled into two deceptively simple hooks...

Detox Blues deals with the more mondane problems impinging on our daily life, and cheekily confronts our most modern dilemma... Should we keep the party going at any cost or are we better off just staying in bed? (premiere by Gilles Peterson on BBC 6 Music 27-04-2013).

Next week we will premiere "Kill Me", a quirky ode to the transient beauty of human life on the planet and a stark warning that we may be abusing the very thing we cherish... "Life is as sweet as make believe... Baby wont you kill me when you leave"

All very tongue-in-cheek and blatantly, irreparably spine-tinglingly optimistic ;)

Includes remixes by Claptone, Mixhell, Mark Starr and Butch.

 The story of UB40, and how this group of young friends from Birmingham transcended their working-class origins to become the world’s most successful reggae band is not the stuff of fairytales as might be imagined. The group’s led a charmed life in many respects it’s true, but it’s been a long haul since the days they’d meet up in the bars and clubs around Moseley, and some of them had to scrape by on less than £8 a week unemployment benefit. The choice was simple if you’d left school early. You could either work in one of the local factories, like Robin Campbell did, or scuffle along aimlessly whilst waiting for something else to happen.

By the summer of 1978, something else did happen, and the nucleus of UB40 began rehearsing in a local basement. Robin’s younger brother Ali, Earl Falconer, Brian Travers and James Brown all knew each other from Moseley School of Art, whilst Norman Hassan had been a friend of Ali’s since school. Initially, they thought of themselves as a "jazz-dub-reggae" band, but by the time Robin was persuaded to join and they’d recruited Michael Virtue and Astro – who’d learnt his craft with Birmingham sound-system Duke Alloy – the group had already aligned themselves to left-wing political ideals and forged their own identity, separate from the many punk and Two Tone outfits around at that time. The group had nailed their colours to the mast by naming themselves after an unemployment benefit form. Their political convictions hadn’t been gleaned second hand either, but cemented in place whilst attending marches protesting against the National Front, or rallies organised by Rock Against Racism.

By the time Chrissie Hynde invited them to tour with the Pretenders during the summer of 1980 and their debut single "King b/w Food For Thought" had sailed into the UK Top 5, all the essential elements of UB40 were already in place. Their line-up will remain unchanged for almost thirty years, and they will continue playing a mix of original material and inspired choice of reggae covers in a style that’s instantly accessible with its bright melodies and sweeping horn arrangements – one that’s allied to a formidable rhythm section, capable of holding its own with anything from Jamaica.

UB40’s first album was released the following September, on Graduate Records. Their deal allowed them more creative freedom than if they had signed with a major label. The cover artwork memorably duplicated an unemployment benefit card, with the title "Signing Off" rubber-stamped in red, but it was the music that quickly worked its way into the affections of a young, mainly student crowd with its knowing lyrics, solid reggae rhythms and dubby, instrumental passages, offset by warm horn solos and Jamaican style scatting. There was nothing else like it at the time. As a multi-cultural band from Birmingham, UB40 weren’t drawn into trying to sound "authentic," and there was considerably more depth to their music than that of many punk and 2Tone bands. "I’m a British subject, not proud of it, whilst I carry the burden of shame," they sang on one of the tracks. Accepting the truth of their own situation amidst a sea of other reggae songs proclaiming black heritage gave us a valuable insight into where UB40 were coming from. They were unafraid to stand up and be counted, and British audiences instinctively loved them for it. "Signing Off" duly went to No. 2 in the UK and stayed on the nation’s album charts for 72 weeks.

On September 2nd, 2013, UB40 released their latest album ‘Getting Over The Storm’ on Universal/Virgin Records.
