Here’s a selection of this week’s cream of the crop. Your pre drinks will be a tad on the drab side without giving these a chance.

Have a look at the tracks we’ve picked out this week below, and we’ve made life nice and simple and wrapped it up into a handy mixtape for you to listen through at the bottom.

DJ DJ Booth – Ur Wastin My Time [Activia Benz]
Apparently drawing exclusively on Todd Edwards and The Neptunes as influences, this is a delightful bit of throwback garage.

Funkineven – Egypt [Eglo]
Funkineven takes us to Egypt with whirring bass, robotic drum machines and plenty of synth wizardry.

Four Tet – Kool Fm (Champion Rmx) [Text]
With Four Tet’s funky house indebted ode to the pirate radio station, a Champion remix just makes so much sense.

Jonwayne – The Come Up, Pt.1 [Stones Throw]
Clever lyricism and flawless production from the LA beatmaker and rapper, balancing hyperactive beats and soulful vocals.

Bicep – Satisfy [Feel My Bicep]
The Belfast boys return to the fold after a six month spell in the studio with this 80s influenced synth and breakbeat heavy banger.
