Undiscovered Beats January 2014 Chart


Hey Everyone,
So Welcome to 2014! Lets hope this year brings us as much great music as the last! There are a lot of upcoming shows which you should try and get to if you can. Some of the international festivals have been announced and although this year I won't be heading to any the line ups still look tasty!


Parklife in Manchester has a huge line up and I'm excited to get to the Bugged Out Weekender in March! Cyril Hahn has also released a few dates in the UK and France which would be worth a watch!

This month we have a lot of great tunes all going for that top spot in January's Undiscovered Beats chart.


My most recent mix for you all to hear can be accessed on the link below:

Undiscovered Beats January 2014 Chart

Close But No Pineapple (The tracks that didn't make the cut)

Just Missed Out

Undiscovered Chart January 2014

9. Years & Years - Real (Tobtok Remix)
(Xylophones! A retro gentle vocal builds you up to an outbursting chorus)

8. Karma Kid - Like I'm On Fire / Karma Kid - Like I'm On Fire (Kartell Remix)
(The Kid is back with a bouncy bondax feeling warm summery number with chopped up vocals / Kartell's remix is a little more solid but that might take away from the magic - Both worth a listen)

7. Mos Def - Ms. Fat Booty (Louis Futon Remix)
(Amazing hip hop meets electro piece (very Kaytranada). It's hard not to dance to this)

6. Diia - Alone (Fuse & Mark Mackenzie Remix)
(Cute vocal with soft piano melodies to be concurred with a huge bass)

5. Jessie Andrews - You Won't Forget Tonight (feat. Comets We Fall)
(Classic warm house track with a dreamy vibe)

4. Destiny's Child - Bug A Boo (Borneland Remix)
(Amazing take on an old R&B classic despite the R&B remix being overdone recently) 

3. Claptone - Ghost feat. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
(Mysterious feel to this one. A nice guitar riff complemented by pianos, strings, bass and a disturbed vocal. Works really well)

2. Moon Boots - C.Y.S.
(Moon Boots! We always new it was going to be great! Cute vocal, punchy basslines and great chords)

1. Cyril Hahn - Breaking
(Another amazing slow R&B/Electro hybrid from Cyril!)

THIS MONTHS UNDISCOVERED TUNE
Cyril Hahn - Breaking



CYRIL FINALLY CLAIMS THE THROWN THIS MONTH! He is like the Leonardo DiCaprio of unclaimed oscars in the Undiscovered Beats world but with his recent Wolf of Wall Street performance "Breaking" is Cyril's worthy overdue winner. The track features Javeon McCathy familiar from his work with L- Vis 1990 on the track "Lost in Love" and Julio's "Father Father". We start by hearing the white noise, a sprinkle of chimes and that deep slow bass we are all so familiar with. Javeon's vocals give off that soulful R&B vibe to add to the energy. As soon as he starts to sing we are already rocking with pleasure. It's hard not to sing the chorus when it arrives. The solos under the bass line are my favourite part of the piece and one of the many reasons why it works so well. Cyril is currently in Perfect Form (Sorry I couldn't resist).





BLAST FROM THE PAST
This Months Tune From The Moon is:

Terrence Parker - Love's Got Me High (Marc Romboy's Systematic Soul Mix)





Remember to head back next month for some more great tracks!
