Tru Thoughts/
Zebra Traffic/
myspace.com/robertluisdj]
CURRENT CHART (CDR's & MP3's are for winners!)
01. That Version Of Sexual Healing That
Quantic's Been Hammering (MP3)
Managed to blag an MP3 of Will but have to keep who it is under wraps for the moment as we are now in discussions trying to sign it
02.
TM Juke / Come Away (Tru Thoughts 12")
The big dancefloor tune finally gets on vinyl.
03.
Drumagick / Fiesta & Brazuca Do Mal (Trouble On Vinyl 12")
Blew the roof of the tent at Bestival. The bass is scary!!!
04.
Omar / Your Mess (Mark De Clive Lowe Mix) (Ether 12")
The album's still on heavy rotation but loving this remix too.
05.
Aaron Jerome / Late Night Mission (The Bump) (MP3)
Featuring Yungun with some funny party lyrics and a great uptempo party beat. Big!
06.
Alice Russell / Humankind (Grant Phabao Mix) (Tru Thoughts MP3)
Another reggae remix from France that was just sent through to TT HQ.
07.
Rup / Rup On Zebra EP (Zebra Traffic Promo 12")
I've been playing tracks from CDR for a while from Rup and I don't get asked about too many hip hop tunes when I play but a real mixture of people are asking me about Rup. Refreshing hip hop.
08. Various / Various (
Rebtuz 12")
Next instalment sees remixes and edits of Art Blakey, Yummy Bingham, Diesler, Lupe Fiasco, J Dilla and Life dropping some truth about 'Bomb Propaganda'.
09.
Skibadee / Tika Toc (Ahead Of The Game 12")
TM Juke got to drop this at Bestival and it is huge…when the beat kicks in on a big system it snaps your head!!!!
10.
Freddie Cruger / Soul Search (Tru Thoughts LP)
Quite a few demos we get at Tru HQ say they are like Massive Attack. This album actually reminds me of Massive circa Blue Lines but for 21st Century (it doesn't sound like Massive). Reggae, Soul, Hip Hop and Funk fused in a way that could only be new.
11.
The Elementz / On My Case feat Task Force (CDR)
Straight out of Nottingham. A 'Sound Of Da Police' anthem for the UK (finally!!!!).
12.
Pharoah Monch / Push (Geffen MP3)
Gospel into hip hop and a good dig at George Bush too. What more can you want.
13.
Zero Db / Bongos Beats and Basslines (Ninja Tune LP)
These guys are pioneers. Dirty and noisy but still musical.
14.
Calibre / Drop It Down & Same Ole (Signature 12" & Liquid V 12")
Two massive Drum and Bass tunes from Calibre.
15.
Bonobo / Days To Come (Ninja Tune LP)
With Bajka and Fink on vocals and Si on production this is a really amazing album. A definite album of 2006 contender.
16.
Nostalgia 77 Octet / The Impossible Equation (Tru Thoughts LP)
Ben continues with his Jazz Jihad. Amazing pieces of music.
17.
Feindrehstar / Dancetrack (Moonstrarr Mix) (Sonar Kollektiv 12")
You can't front on the drums. Dancefloor destroyer!!!
18.
Luther Vandross / Shine (J 12")
Sampling Chic (like the current Puherman tune on Bingo).
19.
Spanky Wilson & The Quantic Soul Orchestra / I'm Thankful (Tru Thoughts LP)
The album is super heavy and can't wait for the live gigs with her later this year.
20.
Lanu / Dis Information (Tru Thoughts CDR)
From the man behind the Bamboos. Great lyrics that are very relevant at a time when flying out of the UK is chaotic but there are no concerns about flying back!
