The Big Pink

Stay Gold

Months of teaser clips finally give way to a full track from The Big Pink's forthcoming second album. Elements of PiL's "Rise" combine with band's familiar epic electro.

Girls

My Ma

As seen on indie-loving US chat show 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon', where they were backed by house band The Roots. An unusually slow track from the scuzz popsters.

Space Fight

22

Radio-friendly indie led by a frantic drum and bass beat. The bouncy low end and almost synthetic guitar tones make this prime remix-bait.

Peaking Lights

Mixxed Up

An eclectic 86-minute party mix that veers from African field recordings to 1960s soul or full-on dub reggae.

Two Inch Punch

Up in Your Mix

The vocal may sound pretty UK garage, but the cut'n'splice backing keeps things fresh.

SBTRKT

XFM Mix

This set by the London producer came from Mary Anne Hobbs's new prime time XFM show and merges the likes of Little Dragon, Gold Panda, Zomby and Disclosure.

Trash Talk

Awake

Extreme dual-vocal hardcore whose influences include UK punk's Hard to Swallow.

Girl Crisis

The Sign

The Brooklyn collective rework this 1990s Ace of Bass hit into a haunting, extremely lo-fi slice of anti-folk.

Pengilly's

Toby's Hill

Sparse, detached pop for fans of The xx or James Blake.
