DJWags Picks June 19, 2009

If you're in London and have a need to hear some sweet tunes - email DJWags to find out when and where he might be laying them down. CHEERS!

Hey Beatheads!

I have been lost in projects these last few months but I have not forsaken you.
Here are a few very highly recommended gems for your summer record bags.
I have a little bit of everything here but it all fits together somehow as usual.
If you’re out and about at any of the summer music festivals, keep an eye peeled for me. I just may be dropping some of my favourite Mash Up nuggets at some killer joints in France and Netherlands sooner than later. It would be great to see you out there bumpn’ to the beats.
Until next time, please think twice before you twitter…
Oh, and peace out!

Fink
"Sort Of Revolution"
2009 Ninja Tune

Fink is back with an even more stripped down sound. Very soulful and deep.

Permanent Vacation
"Selected Label Works N.1" (compilation)
2009 Permanent Vacation

I am loving this compilation. Many sweet summer mid tempo dance tracks to keep your feet tapping while your enjoying the sun.
Listening to track 10 on disc one right now as I write this… deep sexy groove, with some awesome retro synth sounds. The Todd Terje edit of Dolle Jolle’s Balearic Incarnation should a huge summer floor filler! Get this one, you will not be disappointed.

Tosca
"No Hassel"

Tosca are back to their old tricks. But with record they go in a much more ambient direction. It works! I really like this record, its got some great typical Tosca touches while getting even deeper into your head. The whole package is great, the live disk is a must have. So grab the whole special CD/DVD pack at the corner store today! All you old school G-Stoners will lovin’ it!

2009 K7! Records

Ian Pooley
"In Other Words"
2008 Ministry of Sound (DE import)

Damn this record is bumpin’ some serious beats! This is one of my new dance floor fave’s!

Islands
"Balearic Sundown Sessions vol.5"
2008 Phantom Sound & Vision (Import)

Deep Soulful House for your next summer shindig. You can’t go wrong with this one.

Testiculo y Uno
"Hi-Hat Club, Vol.1"
2009 Melting Pot Music

Mad Skills. Full stop.

Tycho
"Past Is Prologue"
2006 Merick

Some seriously smooth ambient techno. I love this one for just chillin’
