DJ Rashad - Who Da Coldest from Itz Not Rite EP on Planet Mu, 2010. This is my fave DJ Rashad tune by far - acid juke and footwork with the hardest clap. Sorely missed, RIP.

Alexandra Love & Beef Wellington - Empress To the Night. I discovered Beef Wellington's album 'Feel Fantabulous' on the show The Wire and then found this collabo gem while I was looking for more of his music. This kind of soul/r'n'b reminds me of 4hero so hard.

Jacob's Optical Stairway - The Fusion Formula (The Metamorphosis) [feat. Juan Atkins] on Reinforced Records, 1995. Dollis Hill meets Detroit, enough said.

Sinistarr & Kiat - Black Diamonds (Hospital, 2009). Beautiful scenes. The world needs an album from this top tier team.

What song makes you feel like you're in a different country?

Wiley - From The Outside (Special Request VIP) [Big Dada Rec., 2015]

"I've been in the wrong system, the wrong territory, for way too long."

Patrik Cure - Smile This is the End from the Hybrid Hooks compilation on Defrostatica in 2021. Perfect track title of a baaad club track on 155 BPM.

Submerse - Give It Up. Part autonomic, part postdubstep, part beats. The 2012 'They Always Come Back EP' on R&S' sublabel Apollo still sounds fresh.

Ital Tek - Gonga (µ-Ziq Remix) from Gonga EP on Planet Mu, 2011. The original is amazing but the remix by Mike Paradinas is timeless.

Flora Purim - Open Your Eyes, You Can Fly (1976). First time heard the bassline on ‘Bug Powder Dust’ by Bomb The Bass.

Kiat - Brooklyn (Agzilla Remix) from Leipzig EP on Defrostatica, 2016. One of my favourite tracks remixed by one of my favourite producer.
