Undiscovered Chart June Part 1


Hey Everyone,

Festival Season is here people!

I went to Parklife (Manchester) Last weekend to see acts like Justice, Julio Bashmore, Erol Alkan, Eats Everything, Nero, Tensnake, Fake Blood, Jaques Le Cont and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs! Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs have just released their long awaited album and it proves to be a treat. I would advise checking Miguel Campbell's remix of Stronger that looses out in this weeks chart as I think the original tops it (It's still worth checking out though).

I've got Hideout Festival (Croatia) in two weeks to look forward to also and if you've not got tickets to watch acts like these then try and sort some out to stop you missing out.

It was such a good weekend see the video below of Xavier from Justice when he stopped We Are Your Friends half way through for a snippet of what it was like:

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE


Chopstick & Johnjon - Listen


Right then! This week Chopstick and Johnjon get the prize and rightfully so! The German based duo have put together an exceptional piece that blends the old with the new. It starts with a simple drum beat to then be accompanied by a a soulful vocal snippet "Come on with it". The track then comes to life when the bouncy wooded bass is delivered. All these aspects gets you bouncing and when you hear the soulful vocals from way back when it takes you on an atmospheric journey to find some sunshine and enjoy yourself.

Undiscovered Chart May Part 2


Hey Everyone,

Got some fantastic songs in store for you all this month! This week we see a new track from Julio Bashmore who yet again chooses to sample The Real Thing - "You to Me Are Everything" after recent success with his track "Ensnare". We also see Roberto Rodriguez making a few appearances with his chilled summer fuelled tracks and I may have picked an old Larry Heard classic to add into the mix. I have got some great songs lined up for June's Part 1 chart so hold tight!

I've had a few new members on my Facebook page and it's great to see your interest and support!

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE


Simian Mobile Disco - Your Love Ain't Fair


This week we see the well established Simian Mobile Disco take the top spot. Simian Mobile Disco are known most for their collaborated track "We are your friends" with Justice. Since then the London duo have made some electronic gems such as "Hustler", "It's The Beat" and "I Believe". The pair in recent history seemed to have lost their edge in terms of making great productions but their new album shows that they have exactly what it takes to still be able to create wonders like our Undiscovered Beats May Part 2 top track. "Your Love Ain't Fair" is my personal favourite track off their new album. The track has wobbly and distorted elements creating a trance like aberrant vibe. We hear a strong soulful statement from the vocalist announcing the name of the piece... Your Love Ain't Fair! The duo have then changed the pitches, paces and chopped it up to harmonise with the backing track. You wouldn't associate this style of track with typical SMD songs but I think it is a refreshing surprise that they can also branch out to different styles of music across the "Electronic" scene. If you like this track you should check out L-Vis 1990 and his work as it is quite similar.
