Forgotten Treasure: Team Shadetek ft. Skepta “Reign” (2007)

Disclosure Mix on Mary Anne Hobbs’ XFM Show
I must say that amidst this whole wave of nostalgia with the whole 90’s house and garage sound there are very few productions that truly stand out. The one thing that is generally lacking from most of these releases is quite simply originality. I hate listening to a song that …

Future Classic: Photek + Pinch “Acid Reign” (Dubplate Version)
Dubstep really has become quite easy to make fun of these days. I don’t remember a music genre facing such a backlash from magazines, critics and bloggers. Thing is, as with absolutely any genre it’s always been about finding the gems. That elusive 5% of geniusness! In fact, you should …
