Azzido da Bass Doom's Night (Laidback Luke Remix) Kontor
Even though we all know that Timo’s mix of this classic track set the world on fire, and in someway defined a sound that was to churn out of speakers for some time to come, Luke reminds us quite BOOOMBASTICALLY...what a hot track that was...and is now turned once more. » SJ

Quentin Harris f. Margaret Grace My Joy Strictly Rhythm

Slick and sexy vocal house from NYC star Quentin Harris. Smokey vocals from Margaret Grace wrap around the deep and groovy sounds of the original, the chunked out groove of Yass' mix or the main room sounds from Harry Choo Choo Romero. An absolute must have for lovers of quality vocal house music. » AR

3 5
Danism & Kenny Bobien Feelin You MN2S
A fine slice of deep vocal house. Can't go wrong when you combine Kenny's lush vocals with fine piano riffs and crisp drums. Could be a big tune for the deep heads at WMC. » AR
4 7
Leger & Lake Word Rising Music
When two guys of this calibre team up, there is no question the results will be outstanding. Enter into the mix WORD, a tech-house pounder, that snakes its way around the room only to re-emerge as a modern electro-funk-disco biscuit!!!! SWEET TRACK!!! » SJ
5 8
Jorgensen vs BSD I Don't Care Toolroom
There is only one way to describe this blitzer, electro anthem. Period. The synth-pads that devastate the room, with the seductive yet perverse vocal by Luciana, make this an easy pick for sure! » SJ
6 11
DJ Pearl & Patric LaFunk f. Shena Keep Pushin Demeanour

A remake of Boris D'Lugosch's classic Keep Pushin, Patric LaFunk is on fire once again this time teaming up with DJ Pearl. While the vocals aren't as strong as the original they still get the job done and Kurd Maverick delivers another bumping remix that will get a dancefloor rocking. » AR

7 9
Yousef & Carl Cox I Want You Cr2
This old school Carl classic gets given the modern to spruce up by none other then Yousef. Think that old school epic love, crossing paths with the big room crunch that has taken over the HUGE rooms of the world. Turn to the Deadmau5 mix for the bumping prog cut! » SJ
8 12
Milk & Sugar Higher & Higher Milk & Sugar

Known for their funky grooves Milk & Sugar deliver another full on disco-infused gem. With a nice breakdown with a full on disco loop that kicks back into a riff that will delight all futuristic disco house lovers. » AR

9 10
Shlomi Aber Quivery Ovum
The eclectic sounds of Shlomi Aber are leaking into all kinds of set-lists these days. With releases on all kinds of labels including Toolroom, and now Ovum, it is clear we aren't the only ones that find the tech-house-turned techno sounds of Shlomi Aber to be of the highest calibre and quality. » SJ
10 14
Dennis Ferrer f. KT Brooks How Do I Let Go King Street

More deepness from Dennis Ferrer. The next tune combines the soulful vocals of KT Brooks with some hot remixes from Charles Webster. Simply put this is feel-good, groovy house music at its finest. » AR

12 21
Carl Kennedy The Love You Bring Me Stealth

Rising house star Carl Kennedy knocks another one out with his vocal bumper The Love You Bring Me. With a trademark electrofied house remix from Eddie Thonieck and a more straightforward electro working from Dom Kane this one is poised to burn dancefloors around the world. » AR

13 6
Osunlade My Reflection (DJ Gregory Remix) Strictly Rhythm
DJ Gregory nails this one out of the park with a moody, driving mix with a killer bassline and haunting vocal. A nice change of pace from his usual Africanism vibes as this one is a little more main room, prime time. » AR
14 20
Discount Rhinos Grab That Hoodie Sharpie Style

The Rhinos are back with another unique tune. Grab That Hoodie is an almost San Francisco style house joint you'd find from a Mark Farina type. Chopped up funk slices and brass stabs warp and woggle over a bumping drum line Get your funk on! » AR

15 25
Supafly Inc. Be Together Eye Industries

In the vein of Bob Sinclar comes a Marley-esque vocal house joint. The remixes really make this track stand out as TV Rock gives it an upfront electro ride and Ian Carey goes for a tropical soundclash. » AR

16 22
Studio Apartment f. Ron Carroll I'm In Love King Street

How can you go wrong with Ron Carroll on vocals? Throw in Rasmus Faber on the remix and rising producers Studio Apartment and you get another slick vocal house joint with a lot of soul. » AR

17 24
Muzzaik Carbonate Cr2

Discovered if you will by Roger Sanchez, Hungarian duo Muzzaik have been on fire. This melodic and tempered electroish joint is a great example of their sound and how it can dominate dancefloors. » AR

18 15
Neon Stereo Blue Magic (Dom Kane Remix) Benchmarc
This is as trademark benchmarc as you can get, wibbly electro, break beat influenced madness, turn it over to the Dom Kane remix for a straightforward glitchy tech-house bumper should the original give you a headache. » SJ
19 26
Orli & Matie Malaika 852 Recordings

Not to be confused with a national geographic wildlife soundtrack, this track is authentic as tribal drums can be without painted tribesman busting into your house and taking your significant other for a fire-lit sacrifice! » SJ

20 27
Lutzenkirchen Corrodor Platform B

Although rooted in a techno feel, this swelling monster leaves the blippy-minimal at the door and becomes a finely textured tech house ditty! » SJ

21 17
Atomic Holigan I Don’t Care (Tomcraft Remix) Botchit & Scarper

This one is meant to simply bewilder and assault your crowd in a lewd manner, one very reminiscent of the way a weirdo on the subway that is having a conversation with himself does, yet...you cant help but listen, cuz you like what you hear. Add a nasty synth line...yep, that’s the guy. » SJ

22 29
Henry John Morgan vs Gwen Stefani Good Oxyd

Taking the hook from Gwen's hit with No Doubt "Hella Good" and giving it a seriously funky workout, Henry John Morgan has created a dance remix the way it should be done, with an instrumental that can stand on its own and work seamlessly with the known vocal elements. Commerical yes, but a whole lot of fun. » AR

23 32
Martin Eyerer Barbers Pole Kling Klong

Taken from the forthcoming artist album, Word of Mouth, Martin is just about to cement himself globally as the next big ‘minimal’ techno guy (although we all know its tech-house), eitherway, this pulsating and melodic number is just one example of how good this guy really is. » SJ

24 30
Tomcraft Boogie Nights Great Stuff

His name is running around the countryside right now, and for good reason. If tech-house is your bag, tune in as everything this guy writes is seemingly gold, Boogie Nights is the next one to look for! » SJ

25 19
Brian Cross This Summer Juicy Music

For those not familar with who Brian Cross is, you can find him every summer as a resident at Amnesia Ibiza and this tune has that European sensibilty. Combining electro and house in the aura of a DJ Dan or Robbie Rivera, this track has a lot of dancefloor appeal. » AR

26 28
Discount Rhinos Me, Myself, & Fuzz Sharpie Style

Tough, teched out glitchy house at its best. The chopped beats, the quirky vocal stabs, the use of melody in a creative way, all make this track speak on a lot of levels. The sickness meter is busting on this one! » AR

27 38
Splittr All Alone (Michael Gray Remix) Electron

ANTHEM ALERT! Splittr's brilliant All Alone is amazing on it's own, but throw in a four to the floor stomping mix from Michael Gray and you have a prime time banger. Tough beats solid vocal stabs and slick usage of the chord progression to create massive tension all work to get those hands in the air. » AR

28 33
The Rurals Strange Ways DigiPeng

A long-time deliverer of seriously sexy house music, The Rurals nail it once again. Sultry, sensous vocals, a soulful instrumental with beautiful keys and great musicality... classic Rurals. » AR

29 37
Umek & Matthew Hoag The Santien Race Little Mountain

This epic synth builder will be sure to evoke the emotion and connection from the dance-floor, although very reminiscent of the 1999 anthem ‘cream’, this track only verges on trance keeping the its tech house sensibilities well intact. » SJ

30 34
Slam Staccato Rave Soma

The boys are back with an energetic late night club slammer, sure to hype up the atmosphere and get the dance-floor in gear. Sorry for the SLAM fans of old, no vocals in this one, but still a sure fired slid track! » SJ

31 36

Already making waves around the globe, Antoine Clamaran's latest is an all out barnstormer. Infused with tribal drums and intense builds this one is sure to make your floor rattle. » AR

32 39
Hatiras Green Frisbees Hatrax

Ok, so put your hands up if you loved ‘Spaced Invader’... I know, I know, pinnacle track... now, enter into your brain, Green Frisbees. Just about as much fun as anyone can have with a 'tech-house-no' record! Let the remixes begin! » SJ

33 41
Calvertron & Will Bailey Hooken EP Funktion

This week's glitchy electro flavoured ice cream award goes to this little number. Somewhere between Ramirez and a soft place is where this one does the business, if you like your glitch' this is yours to cherish. » SJ

34 35
Play Paul & Denis Naidanow All Mine (Eddie Thoneick Remix) Opaque

Eddie does it again, taking a middle of the road electro tune and putting a more upfront and accessible house spin on it. Great twist of the hook and Eddie's flare for jacking beats deliver a prime time tune. » AR

35 42
Candy Apple f. Anjou Step 2 Me (Inland Knights Remix) Shake & Pop

Inland Knights drop the funk hammer once again. Soulful, funky and neck-snappingly good. If you like bumping beats and slick melodies get all over this. » AR

36 43
Einzelkind in Bed With Douglas Greed Ice 1656 Kindisch

Hands down the sickest techno ep this month. 3 separate pieces of swank all waiting for you in one ‘bleepy’ package, don’t worry; there’s some bump in there too. » SJ

37 44
Jesus Jackson Damn Physical Graffiti

The original might be a bit to much pimp disco for the seasoned underground ear, but the novadub version(s) bring the bump with some synth funk to make it well worth the shopping cart on Beatport. » SJ

38 47
Inland Knights Where Ya At Raise

Taken off the Chewy Mango EP, Where Ya At jumps out with it's chopped up percussion and cool pan-flute lead. While not as bassline driven as past cuts, it still has that funky and bumping flavour we've come to love from the Knights. » AR

39 45
Toni Granello f. Linda Lee Hopkins Lift Him Up (The MuthaFunkaz 12 Inch Remix) MAP Dance

Soulful yet still bumping house joint from rising Swiss producer Toni Granello. Where this track really gets elevated though is in the hands of veteran producers The MuthaFunkaz (DJ Spen & Gary Deane). This is prime time for all the vocal house heads without a doubt. » AR

40 48
Blackfeel White First Night Moonbeam

A gripping, prog-rock vocal (almost Gahan-esqe) laid over some very dramatic synths, opt for the remixes for a bit more tech-bump, but overall, this baby's sweet. » SJ

41 46
Tone Control Illusion Tone Control Music

Smooth and sensous slice of deep house. Whether it's the brooding undertones of the Tone Control Mix or the lush soundscape of The Rurals' take it simply works. » AR

42 --
Lisa Millet & DJ Device One Day You Want Me HiLife

What can I say, I LOVE Lisa Millet! Her vocals just touch my soul the right way and "One Day You Want Me" fulfills that promise yet again. Whether it's the soulful original or Bad To The Bone & Booker T's funkier mix, this is vocal house bliss. » AR

43 --
DJ Vibe & Carlos Fauvrelle f. Alan T Hot Room Stereo

If you didn't expect a late night peak-time number from these two guys, I strongly suggest you take a closer look @ their respective careers. Top level stuff for the all the dark corners you run around in. » SJ

44 49
Giano WJSD Lazy Days

Fresh from Fred Everything's Lazy Days imprint comes a latin infused groover from Californian Giano. With a full on interlude mid-track it definitely takes you on a journey from start to finish and the flute riff rolls wonderfully over the brass swells. » AR

It’s great when your star is in the ascendant, especially in that headiest of all heady worlds, the music business. That unbeatable adrenalin rush as your career seems to be on a permanent upward trajectory. Everyone loves you, everyone wants to be your friend. They slap you on the back (ouch, that hurt actually…), they want to be seen with you (hang on, your trousers reflect badly on me…), take drugs with you (just say no)...
