Skream & Disclosure B2B | 70 Minute Boiler Room Mix

In case you missed it, two of the UK’s finer acts – Croydon’s Skream and Surrey’s Disclosure – spun a back to back DJ set during Boiler Room ‘s W Hotel party in London, November 14th. Perhaps a new Disclosure track was unveiled around the 6-minute mark; bear in mind that this is only speculation, time will prove or falsify.

Shadow Child | 23 (ft. Tymer)

In lieu of Skream and Disclosure ‘s back to back Boiler Room fuckery that took place live from the presidential suite of the W Hotel in London this evening, we bring you this feast of a house tune. Skream flatteringly rinsed “23″ only two days after it’s impactful release to the public. This is the title track off Shadow Child ‘s 4 track EP of similarly cultured “peak time” house”, and will be the first release for his new label, Food Music . With a co-founder like Kry Wolf and early support from the likes of Eats Everything , and Mistajam , one should expect  big things from this newly formed entity.

Hopefully like us, you enjoy this tune infinitely more than the sluggish crowd seemed to, who were lucky enough to be in attendance in that pillow feather ridden hotel room.

Bless,

Rader


Shlohmo | Ghosts pt. 2 (Groundislava Cool Mix)

We first heard it during his Boiler Room set back in August and it’s just now that Groundislava has unchained his bootleg of Shlohmo ’s “Ghosts pt. 2.” The original appeared on Henry Laufer’s first “official” release, Shlo-Fi , back in 2009, and what a release it was. GIL alters the tune’s ethereally ambient tone and injects a pulse, giving the track a bit more of an upbeat dance-floor feel.

Jeremih | Fuck U All the Time (Shlohmo Remix)

Henry Laufer just dropped a rework of Jeremih’s ”Fuck U All the Time” and, as per usual, he offered it up free of charge.  Within 10 minutes, his download link reached it’s maximum capacity but we managed to catch it on the fly.

If you’ve watched or listened to Shlohmo ‘s own recent Boiler Room set , you’ve probably heard this gem before-

Boiler Room | Disclosure 35 min DJ Set

“Two youts that are totally killing it right now..”

Whether it be an original, remix, video or set, it seems that almost every day something fresh surfaces with Disclosure ‘s name on it. Today’s edition, the duo’s mix for the renowned Boiler Room Recordings , actually emerged a few days back. However, it is already being labelled one of the best mixes of the year. There’s no doubt in our minds that this band of brothers will be among the top names of electronic production in 2012. Watch the recorded set over at Boiler Room here , or just simply download the set from iTunes below. We suggest the latter.

Machinedrum | Alarmaa

[Alarmaa EP]

Travis Stewart aka Machinedrum was nice enough to give this gem of a track away for the free LuckyMe Christmas Advent, which the label released back in December. The highly acclaimed Glasgow label celebrated the festivities by giving away one free remix/unreleased/rare track from their astounding assortment of acts listing from Jacques Greene , Hudson Mohawke , Lunice , Mike Slott & Rustie .

Alarmaa made its way around the Boiler Room with it’s in your face drums, bubbling synths and heavy winding bass. Don’t be surprised if this tune destroys your dancefloor.

Machinedrum & FaltyDL | Give In 2

[FaltyDL]

The soundcloud download limit was reached within 4 hours of Mr. Lustman, better known as the N.Y. beatmaker FaltyDL , posting this track. The frantic percussion and spirit of this collaboration between FaltyDL and Travis Stewart, a.k.a. Machinedrum , mimics the same Black-Friday-esque chaos in which the tune was gobbled up in.
