April Round-up

Sun is out, summer is a-comin', and it feels like a world away from the months of winter snow. So what’s new in Westbury World? Time for a round-up of recent and forthcoming singles…

Mel Dymond’s collaboration with London dubstep producer V.I.V.E.K, “Over My Head”, has finally been released. After being named as Mixmag’s Tune Of The Week back in January, the track has been building up a steady profile since, leading up to its March 25 release as the first 12” on V.I.V.E.K’s new System label. We love it – as do the guys in the video (we especially like the guy at 0:27):



Mr Beatnick has a new EP out on April 15 called Savannah, on Semtek’s Don’t Be Afraid label. Following Synthetes and Sun Goddess, this completes Beatnick’s trilogy of house EPs, and it delivers the variety that we’ve come to expect from the boy from Stokie, from house to rave and back to electro.
   


Bomb Shop’s burgeoning label has released the new 7” from Flying Ibex, “You Dared Me”, taken from the band’s forthcoming (and as-yet-unnamed) second album. Full of laid-back polyrhythmic grooves, taking influence from the guys’ ridiculous assortment of influences, it sees the Ibexes step up from their well-received debut album Travel In Dangerous Places.

Donky Pitch’s first release of 2013 is Aberdeen producer/DJ Lockah, whose Only Built For Neon Nites EP was released at the end of March. They followed that up with The Range's EP Seneca, the lead single from which, "PS3", premiered on XLR8R this week. Check out the video to Lockah's “Guards Red Carrera”:



Lau’s tour to promote their recent album Race The Loser kicked off earlier in the week at St George’s Hall in Liverpool. Taking in the sights of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales – with a brief jaunt to Japan halfway through – the tour is already selling out. Check the sidebar on the right for all the dates.

Forthcoming: Donky Pitch’s rising trap and hip hop producer Keyboard Kid works with UK grime star Chronic – new single “Deepest Darkest” is soon to be released on No Hats No Hoods. Shot on location in Ghana, the video premieres on Vice in May – we’ve had a cheeky sneaky preview and it’s got crocodiles. Nuff said.
