The best track on that Paleface mix is (as usual) a Sticky track.

So Royal-T did a FACT Mix and I think it's pretty good: http://www.factmag.com/2011/06/24/fact-mix-259-royal-t/

Also, there's a Butterz release coming out with Swindle and Silkie working together, should be an interesting mix.

EDIT: Also, looks like there's a new Toddla T EP or something coming out on Ninja Tune sometime soon?

EDIT 2: Also, speaking of bassline, here's a good remix of Orangeade that's on that Royal-T mix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krD32Is9hV4

New[?] D Double E and Dizzee Rascal went out on Westwood's show last night. Featuring the standard Westwood hijinx, but song's alright. "Connected to more gangs than Ross Kemp" is a great line

Nice to see S-X getting his riddim used on a track that could blow up.

EDIT: Is this the first thing D Double's done since the Generals' Bag of Grease EP and first solo thing since Woo Riddim/Street Fighter?

VIP cut from DOK's latest EP on Hyperdub. I've always liked him:

The new NGUZUNGUZU (or however it's spelled) EP is out and it's alright. There's potential there, but it's still a little rough around the edges.

It is nice to see their label (Fade To Mind) trying to bring the Night Slugs sound stateside, though.

Haha, Jammer is going in on Skepta without saying it overtly on JJ's show.

N-Type is releasing some 2 CD/double vinyl dubstep teng with one of the discs being unreleased dubplates from some nice artists and the other one being something I forgot since I first heard the ad on Rinse today.

Sounds like it'll be a Youngsta type, rather than N-Type's Rinse mix.

Nice look on that UKG mix.

I've checked out most of the first CD of the Wheel N Deal Dubstep Vol. 1 and most of the dubplates are really nice. Coki's, however, is bad (save for some interesting stuff going on int he background which is drowned out by farting engine noises).

I wasn't really into N-Type's Rinse mix, but I think this selection is a lot better.

I just want to re-iterate how enjoyable the Wheel and Deal comp. is. Really hammers the point home how much I love appropriately used movie samples in dubstep tracks. Largin up N-Type big time on this effort.

DJ Ephixa did a dubstep remix of the Song of Storms from Ocarina of Time.

Now, the Song of Storms is fundamentally about a mental struggle that happens when a dreaded event is approaching (a storm). You've feared it for so long you're exhausted, and you begin to wonder whether it might be a good idea to just accept it. Song of Storms argues that this acceptance is a kind of comfortable madness.

The problem with a dubstep or other bass-heavy remix is that bass is immediate and visceral, while SoS is about a future, possibly even imagined event. They're almost diametrically opposed, since storms are in the sky and bass is in the ground.

Luckily, the remix cleverly compromises. The wobble/modulation is used very sparingly, and the most striking bass is a lingering boom, like something huge and cataclysmic off in the distance. SoS still isn't perfectly suited to the genre, but this is the best it could have possibly been done.

Agreed

EDIT: Big look on the garage post, 28GBB.

Also, Redlight's remix of Neva Soft is really good except I can't find a youtube link to it. You'll just have to trust me or go listen to Rinse a lot.

I'm not sure if it's Royal-T who does the tracks, but Elijah and Skilliam have been playing some tunes that are on a definite bassline flex lately and I can't help but hope we see a revival.

Also Terror Danjah just had a new EP come out on Harddrive that's nice.

I'm also late to this, but S-X's 5000 Followers EP is great, although he seems to be taking a lot of rap influence on his beats (not that that's a bad thing).

On a grime tip, this Preditah remix of Marger's new single is a cool thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBVwGfpCogE

Preditah's remix of I Am is also really good and I haven't heard it get much airplay.
