The DJ team make their selection of tunes that will be testing the countries speakers this weekend.
Tom picks: Sway feat. Klayz – Bring Me
Sway is back with a new mixtape... some of it's good, some of it I was underwhelmed by. This is the big single from it and it kills. Is Sway the best thing in UK rap? He says so, but then he would. All I know is I'll be playing this one. A lot.
Chloe picks: Mumdance – Smasher
Mumdance's "thang" is to layer world sounds together and smack on the bass. In 'Smasher', a marching bass line gives off carnival vibes, which, mixed with the high pitched oriental sounding loop over the top, makes for a wild concoction. If you catch Mumdance this weekend, I'm pretty sure this will feature and knock your senses into overdrive.
Lachie Picks: Roadrage – Subwave
Imagine, if you will, waking up one Monday morning and finding an ominous letter from the council on your doormat. You decide to have a cup of coffee before dealing with what is inevitably bad news: when do the council ever send you anything nice? Sitting in your kitchen you settle into your Crunchy Nut Cornflakes and rip open the envelope. A photo falls out.
It's you, driving – your features scrunched up into an unrecognisable 'bass face'. At the bottom right of the photo in angry red is the phrase 123mph... It all comes back to you. You are normally such a sensible driver but one night in early autumn you had put on the radio and the selector had announced a fresh dub from that Russian beat-smith Subwave. You couldn't help it, the speedometer crept up and up until... smash, your Crunchy Nut Cornflakes fall on the floor – gutted about the waste of milk and cereal, you stagger to work, your life ruined by a simple arrangement of gut-wrenching bass and precision beats.
