Here comes the sun.

Lowri picks: Disclosure - What's In Your Head What's In Your Head by Disclosure

Masters of the smooth drop, this pure-sex garage track has me in rapture. Disclosure have a beautifully precise quality to their music, there are so many subtle little parts it just flicks your entire body, ultimately making you a better dancer. Maybe that's what's in my head...

When this drops it tickles you all over and pushes you into the waiting arms of a crowd of hotties. And then it drops again as they chuck you in the air in the sunshine using a taught parachute. Sublime.

Tom picks: Francis Inferno Orchestra - Silk and Smoove FINA - Silk & Smoove - Snippet by Francis Inferno Orchestra

This is what I'm talking about - intense strings that work you like a puppet on the dancefloor, whether that's in a club, on a terrace or in your bedroom. The drop, the claps, the cheering crowd, it all adds up to one massive sunshine banger.

This is soon to be released on FINA, which is fast becoming one of my favourite labels out there. Always on point with ace releases from MAM and Roberto Rodriguez already under their belt, they're definitely ones to keep an eye out for.

Emma picks: Silicone Soul - David Vincent's Blues (Freska remix) Silicone Soul - David Vincent's Blues (Freska Remix) (Soma DA094) by ev.freska

I couldn't count the number of times I've listened to Silicone Soul's eponymous last album. Full of moody melodies and hypnotic guitar loops, it makes me want to drive down a long dusty road, preferably on Route 66 in a Dodge Challenger.

Now Soma Records have released a remix compilation of songs from SS's back catalogue, with artists like Matthias Tanzmann, Lee Jones and Matt Tolfrey putting their own stamp on some of the Scottish duo's best productions. From their last album, Freska's remix of David Vincent's Blues stands out for me, retaining the slide guitar loop and reinvigorating it with a percussive 4/4 beat.
