Right then, it’s been a busy beginning of 2012 here at Rhythm Inc towers so busy in fact we couldn’t deliver this show in time for January. It more than makes up for the delay however by showcasing a plethora of producers/artists/labels which we think are going to have a good 2012 and who you should definitely keep an eye out for.

Titled the 2012 Watchlist, we opted to do an entire show focused on these new talents rather than a shorter mini feature – so everything in this month’s show aside from a couple of oldies is 100% approved by us as being hot shit for 2012. We’ve got bags of music from new and upcoming talents including the likes of ENA, MNLTHM, Youngteamm, Darkhouse Family, EAN, Danny Scrilla, Beat Inc, Ssaliva, Tehbis, Sweatson Klank, Memory9, Homeboy Sandman and Soosh – some of these names you might recognise as they’ve been grafting for a few years, others are recent additions to our ‘quality’ index. Label wise the likes of Hessle Audio, Astro:Dynamics, Keysound (who were our label of 2011), Ninja Tune, Sonic Router, Brainmath and 7even Recordings all get a look in – some are established others brand new, but all of them are likely to make an impact this year. And as mentioned we’ve also got classics and new music from established heads like Downliners Sekt, Machinedrum and B-Ju. I don’t know about you but I think it’s going to be a good year.

As always you can download and/or stream the show below, or simply subscribe to our Newsletter, RSS or iTunes feed and never miss anything.

We’ll be resuming regular broadcasting schedules this month with new RIPL and RIRS shows as well as our new monthly BLN.FM residency – the February edition of which goes live tomorrow and will be archived here later in the month. We’ve also got a bag of new guest mixes coming – including plenty of the people in our 2012 watchlist – so watch out for these.

So without further ado, enjoy, crank loud and have a good week!

It’s February, the weather on this side of the world could still be primarily described as apocalyptic and the recession is still going on apparently. All of which means you need some fresh new music and aural pleasures more than ever. Fear not, we’ve got you covered.

Up this month we take a close look at Mux Mool, an NYC-based artist we first discovered thanks to Jakub at Ghostly Int and who will be releasing a new album on the label in the coming weeks. We look at some new and older tracks of his, showing his versatile approach to hip hop and electronic music. It goes without saying we’re big fans.

Elsewhere this month we’ve got lots of new, forthcoming tracks including new Big Dada and Ninja Tune releases by Infesticons, Bonobo, Jagga Jazzist and Juice Aleem, new tracks from Fulgeance, Pixelord, FaltyDL, Daisuke Tanabe, Kyle Hall, Nocando featuring Busdriver, Soul Litchfield, Rudi Zygadlo, Oh No and some tasty exclusives from Wrongtom, Om Unit, Tatsuki and Depakote which you won’t hear anywhere else (unless the artists themselves are bumping it).

So without further ado I’ll leave you for another 2 hours of musical goodness, and excuse my rather gruff tone of voice on the presenting tip but I’ve been fighting a cold (or is that man flu?) for the last week and haven’t been feeling very well. Still you can’t stop the good shit so get stuck in, sit back and crank it up to 11 on the volume dial.

As usual the playlist, see below, includes full links and details to all artists and labels pages/websites where you can buy or download the music. If you like what you hear than go support it.

See you next month for more of the same and look out for more exclusive mixes from Primus Luta and Himuro Yoshiteru in the coming weeks.

We reach the last but one show of the year with yet more exclusives and brand new music for your listening enjoyment. In addition, the mini feature this month is part 1 of a ‘Labels of 2009′ feature as I couldn’t just choose one label this year so instead decided to shine a light on two labels who both deserve it in my opinion.

Music wise we’ve got some exclusive previews of music from Om Unit, Loops Haunt, Debruit, Leatherette and Ernesto Gonzales, all of which will be dropping in the first quarter of 2010. Alongside these we have the usual fresh music from a host of artists and labels including Hyperdub, Ramp Recordings, Tectonic, Dutty Artz, the amazing Mr Chop release on Now Again/Five Day Weekend, the psychedelic new Edan release, Madlib and Strong Arm Steady, Non+Herrmutt Lobby, SA-RA, DJ Food, Ben Sharpa and many more.

As for the mini feature, well part 1 of the ‘Labels of 2009′ shines a light on One Handed MUsic, the London-based independent headed by Alex Chase (also responsible for Stones Throw in Europe). Despite, or most likely because, its small roster of artists, 2009 has been a good year for the label release wise with the Paul White debut album, another 2 EPs from the prolific London beat-maker, an EP from Bullion the label’s other, hugely promising London artist, and an amazing EP from Fulgeance, the French MPC master who does ‘chopped & screwed house’ (as Mr Trick called it) like no one else can. The releases aren’t just the reason why I choose OHM as a label of the year – it’s everything else, like Alex’s obviously on point A&R and the artwork and attention that has gone into every release, whether physical or digital (anyone who’s seen the hand-sewn pillow cases for the Paul White album will testity). So I’ll let the music do the talking with a selection of five tracks from this year’s releases. Look out for OHM to continue their rise in 2010 with more Paul White, a long-awaited Tranquill EP and more.

Part 2 of the mini-feature will be coming next month, looking at Ramp Recordings, which ironically Alex Chase pointed out was also run by someone from Suffolk, that is Tom@Ramp. So looks like Suffolk had it on lock for ’09 then – who would have thought. The December show will most likely be similar to the one I put together last year, ie. a best of 09 mix with the label mini feature included in there. Look out for details soon, it’ll drop just before xmas in time for the seasonal overload.

For now though, sit back, crank up the volume and enjoy. And remember check the tracklist for full details of websites and where to buy the music and go out and support if you like what you hear!

I kinda messed things up and this podcast originally went out with the wrong file (the one from the October show). This has now been fixed and I have been fired. This will be my last post before I possible commit ritual suicide in order to atone for the gravity of my sins. Moral of the story is either never trust a Frenchman or don’t work when you’re tired. I go for the first one personally. Originaly text, links and tracklist below.

Seeing as how things are still messed up worldwide, we’ve got another round of fresh new music to help fight the gloom and doom. Think of it like an audio version of Obama’s win, or something to that effect… yes we can (play dope music for you). The end of the year also means an abundance of new music, with our collective Rhythm Incursions music box packed to the rafters as labels and artists push their latest for the end of year/post new year rush. Putting this month’s show together was therefore more difficult than usual, and there is still quite a bit of music I couldn’t showcase, so look out for more goodness next month as we not only wrap up the year but also continue showcasing all the good stuff that’s out, or on its way. Still, I managed to fit in quite a lot in the space of an hour, from the likes of Kanye, Common, Just Blaze, Kano and Evil Nine to Rhythm Incursions favourites Nosaj Thing, Exile and Maga Bo as well as Diplo, Madlib, Fulgeance, Blank Blue, DJ Design and more. Do we have your full attention yet? Good.

As I was saying, this month sees me try to fit in as much new music as possible in the space of an hour. And alongside all the aforementioned artists, most of which appear with brand new tracks we haven’t aired yet, we also have a mini feature on producers Matt B and Nalepa aka Bass Science, whose music veers from electronic dub to dancefloor ready and bass heavy hip hop and dubstep. So get comfy, grab a drink, wack the volume up to 11 and enjoy!
