Breakbot's "Fantasy" is without a doubt the summer jam of summer jams. The great Breakbot production one expects, with a swirl of MJ-esque vocal goodness. Been really feelin' Ed Banger's new direction - from this release to Sebastian's recent.

Girl Unit x Claude Vonstroke
Been waiting for this Vonstroke version of one of my favourite joints of last year since Bok Bok (who graced our monthly Frenzy party this past year) & L-Vis 1990 first played it on Rinse back on May 3rd. Absolutely mad release.

Troy Gunner - Sworn I'll Forget
Great debut release from 18 year young'n producer Troy Gunner. The whole EP (on L2S Recordings) is greatly crafted, from the Future Garage backdrop to the pitched vocals he paints it with.

Brenmar - So High (Dubbel Dutch remix)
Brenmar's "Let Me Know" EP just saw its release on Sinden's Grizzly label 4 days ago. As expected with Brenmar, the compilation stays true to dancefloor flawlessness & widespread club appeal. Great release front to back, but below be my fave of the bunch.

Rolling In The Deep (edits)
Recently turned 23 year young Adele is without a doubt one of the best singers & songwriters of our generation. Say what you will, but girl can hold it down better than anyone I've ever seen live. Not only does she blow her audiences away (whether it be in sold out arenas or tiny cd shops with minimal accompaniment, as seen here), but she also proves just how deadly powerful the fusion of a great voice & dickhead ex-boyfriend can really be.
The first big (and still to this day, my favourite) "Rolling In The Deep" remix to surface was Jamie xx's, back about 5 months ago. The remix garnered so much attention that virtually every remix since has really been an edit OF the Jamie xx version. Below are my two such favourites - one housey, the other on the bashment tip.

Brandy x Fantastic Mr. Fox
I've been rinsing this joint like crazy. The always fantastic Fantastic Mr. Fox comes through with another quality edit.
Brandy - Angel In Disguise (Fantastic Mr. Fox Remix)
Glass Actor
Glass Actor appeared on the map a mere 8 months ago. Kinda baffled that people aren't all over this shit - the production is superb. If not for the depth, then at least for his (trend mocking) funny track genre categorizations (ie "Sensitive Thug Trance Future Reggeaton"). It comes as no surprise that Glass Actor is actually Greg Bowler, or as most people know him, 1/2 of Acid Girls. One would expect great production from someone who fashions these gems under their original moniker.

Groove Theory x George FitzGerald
Best Groove Theory edit I have ever heard. After 9 long months of soundcloud hype, UK's George FitzGerald finally made his stellar touch-up available for download last month. Seems 13,000+ others were patiently waiting for it too...
