LOSTCHILD - DO WHAT U WANT

Lostchild might well be clinging onto the bright pink pigtails of Artpop-mania with his debut solo track, a misty-eyed deep house number based around Lady Gaga's latest single, but this is no mere remix. The UK producer heavily drugs Lady Gaga's gigantic "Do What U Want", whisks it away through woodblock-bassed tribal house TEED-itory, before setting it free amidst a whirlwind of whoosing synth pads and woozy stoner-vocals.

BASTILLE - OF THE NIGHT (KOVE REMIX)

With last month's spectacular Measures EP, 22-year old London producer Kove proved himself almost overnight as a frontrunner in both up and coming UK Garage ("Love For You", "Lose You") and Drum & Bass ("Night Thought", "Searching"). His mix of Bastille's "Rhythm of the Night" tribute makes the club classic's revival complete, with a sledgehammer piano hook and throbbing bass drop so hard it flips your stomach. Truly, the rhythm of the night.

Bastille Of The Night EP, featuring Kove's remix, is out November 17.

DJ FRESH VS JAY FAY FEAT. MS DYNAMITE - DIBBY DIBBY SOUND

For anyone who thought that the surprising Diplo collaboration "Earthquake" was just an experimentation for the commercial D&B juggernaut, "Dibby Dibby Sound" proves that DJ Fresh may be on a more long-term underground trip. "Dibby Dibby" was a track by Moombahton producer Jay Fay released earlier this year, and much as he did with Diplo and "Earthquake", DJ Fresh has once again slapped his big name and a credible feature artist on the top with the hope of getting a lesser known genre into the mainstream.

On the one hand you could call this *new* DJ Fresh a David Guetta of the underground (little than a big brand to take the glory from other's work), BUT on the other, it's exciting that Moombahton, long assumed dead, might get a chance at the big time that it never did first time round. 

If you have three hands you could use the third to argue that this is merely Moombahton-adjacent (and you'd be right), but we'd probably just be distracted by your three hands. 

It's out February 7, so let's hope we're not all sick of it by then.
