GREENWOOD SHARPS - THINGS FAMILIAR (2011)

This is one of the first records i've heard with such direct influence from the likes of Mount Kimbie and the casually-coiffured James Blake. Sparse and deep electronics punctuated with disconsolate guitars and organic percussion. White men doing R&B vocal lines, you know the credo.

MANNI DEE - ANTIDOTE (2011)

This is the latest single Brighton-based producer Manni Dee. With a sound more akin to the west coast beatsmiths of Brainfeeder Records, Dee's music is a cosmic departure from much of what the UK has produced recently.
