Pretty much the most exciting thing in music right now (this is fact and undisputed) is the Malawian born Esau Mwamwaya, and his project with Radioclit, which I have learnt now has been named, The Very Best.

If you havn’t heard about Esau yet then you best read up on our WC archives, he’s pretty much the African Phil Collins and is more uplifting than suspenders.

In anticipation of The Very Best’s album which I have been hearing is set for an early 2009 release, the pair have taken the Diplo/MIA/Santogold route and compiled a for-free net only mix-tape.  

Get your mits on it here.

I caught you a delicious bass. We have some mixes for you.

First up Chicago’s The Cool Kids, with a mixtape named perhaps to answer the, “is hip hop dead” question. The first track is the second track on the mixtape, which is straight up fire. They have a new single, “The Delivery Man” out now.

The Cool Kids – Box Of Rocks

The Cool Kids – That’s Stupid The Mixtape (23min)

This one is for lovers of deep hypnotic crunchy techno beats.  Montreal’s The Mole is playing Fabric in London next Saturday, September 6th.

The Mole – Live At Fabric (33min)

Tittsworth has recently released his first full length album, which has been three years in the making.  Pitchfork has panned the album citing “too little, too late”.  They argue that the Baltimore Club genre isn’t the freshest thing right now, which i’d agree with on a dj / music nerd, blog level.

I’d argue that the dance floor doesn’t lie.
