Introducing: Karen Harding - Say Something

Say hello to Newcastle based Karen Harding and don't just stand there - Say Something more! Ain't nothing like finding a debut single that just stops you dead in your tracks. Well in this case, makes you dance in those tracks! We're lovin' the retro house feel paired with a contemporary groove, a mega groove here. It's rich, bold and lush - Karen's voice is just spot on and takes it to church, making it impossible to not say something. It's wonderful! She's in amazing company too. Her debut is co-written and produced by MNEK and will be released on Disclosure's home label Method Records. Niiiice. Amazing start and we so wanna hear more kinda right now! Enjoy below!

Mutya Keisha Siobhan - Flatline (MNEK Remix)

Tune! Flatline by Mutya Keisha Siobhan and produced by Dev Hynes is already one of the year's best singles. NOW comes this bangin' and delicious garage remix by MNEK. The added groove is exceptional and the added choir be on point. Actually it reminds us a lot of Mariah's fantastic house remix run in the 90's. Plus the girlz lead voices really get to shine! Love that instead of subtracting or chopping the vocals we're getting more goodies for our minutes worth. Enjoy!

Video Premiere - A*M*E - Heartless 

Slight warning before you hit the play button. Huge risk you won't be able to stop listening! We're on our 20th play already! Aminata Kabba a.k.a A*M*E along with MNEK helped Duke Dumont write and perform the UK #1 with Need U (100%) earlier this year. Now she's back with Heartless and it's a smash! Listening to it is like a roller coaster ride with so many sounds and styles. Love her rap! Born in Sierra Leone she moved to London with her family at age 8 (in 2002) after her mother's hair salon was burned down and life got too dangerous. A purveyor of pop she was discovered and signed by Gary Barlow and then signed to Sony when his label closed last year. The video features some retro futurism and psychedelic elements and a heavy dose of badass. A summer hit for suuuuure! The single is out July 17th - should've been a buy on impact release we thinks, but go grab it then. Enjoy!

MNEK - That's The Way Love Goes (Janet Jackson Refix) - Free Download

London lad Uzoechi Osisioma Emenike a.k.a MNEK has a knack for refixing our fave songs - this time it's Janet Jackson's amazing 1993 classic That's The Way Love Goes that gets this honour! Over a deep n' sexy beat we get MNEK's soulful voice paired with some pitched down Miss Janet. Wonderful! Grab it beloooow! Enjoy!

MNEK - No Ordinary Love (Sade Refix) - Free Download

We love kindness and generosity! Uzoechi Osisioma Emenike a.k.a MNEK turns 18 today - and he's giving us a present. Thank you and happy birthday! It so happens No Ordinary Love is one of our all time favourite Sade songs - and this refix is badass. We're thinking if you're into The Weeknd you're gonna love this! We're wild for the flawless vocals that soar (when not down pitched) above a wicked production with amazing drums and synths. A beautiful update to a classic track. We just realized it turns 20 y.o this month! Enjoy!
