Let Oggie James be your guru and lead down the path to musical Enlightenment.

As you may have seen on my social media (thread <a href="https://twitter.com/OggieJames/status/1501231826970767367" target="_blank">here</a>), I've made the difficult decision to move on from both my shows and blogging. I'm going to leave everything here intact for purposes of posterity. That said, I may, and likely will, return to this outlet as I reemerge from my state of disconnection. At this point, I foresee the blog as a space to share longer posts that Twitter cannot handle and, perhaps, a more easily accessible place for playlists, etc. Until then, if you want to stick with me, I suggest following my Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/OggieJames/status/1501231826970767367" target="_blank">@OggieJames</a>.

Uplifting, energizing and all-together inspiriting, tonight's combination of tracks is sure to satisfy. As so often seems to be the case, there are two main sections: house and DnB. Further, those two could be subdivided into more groovy and banging types. Checking both boxes, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/riseofthejellyfish" target="_blank">Rise Of The JellyFish</a>'s remix of "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/riseofthejellyfish/the-white-stripes-seven-nations-army-rise-of-the-jellyfish-remix" target="_blank">Seven Nation Army</a>" is just one of this week's highlights. Available free <a href="https://hypeddit.com/track/4aau1h" target="_blank">here</a>, it is big banging fun, wickedly working the ubiquitous riff atop the new electronic bed.

Leading the way into this week's playlist is pure bliss from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/caribouband" target="_blank">Caribou</a>. He's followed by a trend towards epics with grand designs from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/helsloot" target="_blank">Helsloot</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/aviraaudio" target="_blank">AVIRA</a>, each of whom author awesome rides. Again epic, but undeniably in a league of its own, "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/7EWKIp9csD3IYL1dqPA51S?si=e22581f94d4f494f" target="_blank">Rainy April</a>" finally gets its release nearly three years after its first play at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oi0sVRZ_49c" target="_blank">ABGT300</a>.<div><br /></div><div>Turning towards the piano, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/tshamusic" target="_blank">TSHA</a>'s new single "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/4oV37nYkVu3IZ64ZGxghT7?si=61ecb49437d34403" target="_blank">I Know</a>" completes her extremely cool & captivating <i><a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/3S0Bc7ND7GBGyBUElLAXqU?si=08ae496687444e34" target="_blank">OnlyL</a> </i>EP.

The second in a run of four remixes in a row, the playlist continues with Marshall Jefferson's masterful remix of the already exquisite "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5p0xf6PTezV4bJS4WhdP5k?si=aabbb1b87a324d60" target="_blank">Music Saved My Life</a>."</div><div><br /></div><div>Headfirst into flames, the <a href="https://soundcloud.com/gyrofieldmusic" target="_blank">gyrofield</a> remix of <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hudsonlee" target="_blank">Hudson Lee</a>'s "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/2S9zt84XaC8onnWegzTrG4?si=15854276065c48b8" target="_blank">Reanimate</a>" sets off a run of energizing and oft-fierce DnB. While striking wildly different chords, the next two tracks, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/flume" target="_blank">Flume</a>'s remix of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0lrIwNdTiHaOlw8gqwXk6L?si=1c9ce260a31f479e" target="_blank">On A Mountain</a>" and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/heymacmusic" target="_blank">Heymac</a>'s "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5CQuCtwOKleIH3mBvH0WPE?si=ce2d9ca22c8949c9" target="_blank">Katina</a>," each tug at the heartstrings. Where "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0lrIwNdTiHaOlw8gqwXk6L?si=938aaa56af3348dd" target="_blank">On A Mountain</a>" scorches with sparking synths, "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5CQuCtwOKleIH3mBvH0WPE?si=259a644659494064" target="_blank">Katina</a>" cools with pristine piano. Finally, the playlist closes with two uncapitalized Canadian talents, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/flowanastasia" target="_blank">flowanastasia</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/thook" target="_blank">thook</a>.

While there are a number of epic tracks that run nearly ten minutes, the theme of this week's episode can largely be boiled down to this banging three-minute affair from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/michaelsparksofficial" target="_blank">Michael Sparks</a>. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Always a hard hitter, Sparks has had a heck of a year, starting with a couple of banging bootlegs which were followed in short order by several originals, including "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/michaelsparksofficial/come-back" target="_blank">Come Back</a>." Whether or not he's on the comeback trail is for you to decide, but there's no debating the banging nature of his recent releases. Here, "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/crucast/michael-sparks-juggernaut" target="_blank">Juggernaut</a>" is just the latest example of his explosive energy and destructive disposition. It pushes tonight's episode to hellacious new heights before an extended section of disco/synth-driven grooves, which in turn give way to a fire finale built of DnB.

Coming in at just under 40 tracks and 3 hours, there are all kinds of goodies in store here.

Early on we trend towards techno and acid, taking in some fire forthcoming cuts from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/itscloverdale" target="_blank">Cloverdale</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/ksd6700" target="_blank">ksd6700</a>, the latter making a brilliant return to <a href="https://soundcloud.com/badlqqk" target="_blank">BADLQQK</a>. But before then, we get to look ahead to the weekend with <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hntrnet" target="_blank">HNTR</a>'s epic introspection, "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/mau5trap/hntr-searching-for-self-feat-tribe-alexander-radio-edit" target="_blank">Searching For Self</a>." While he's been making waves on the mighty <a href="https://soundcloud.com/mau5trap" target="_blank">mau5trap</a> as of late, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hntrnet" target="_blank">HNTR</a> will always and forever be the baron of all things black, the overload of all things obsidian, the king of <a href="https://soundcloud.com/noneon" target="_blank">No Neon</a>.

The four-part journey through progressive techno delivers all of the elements that make <a href="https://soundcloud.com/booka-shade" target="_blank">Booka Shade</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/blaufield-music" target="_blank">Blaufield</a> a staple in the scene. Despite being inextricably tied to techno, there's just something so warm, human, and indeed full-of-life that <i><a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/1Vfo6u0cPhnqOBuPccFq59?si=1RMqCEOmSAS3G2C1iX4k4w&dl_branch=1" target="_blank">Shelter</a> </i>feels more like a cruise through the recesses of our consciousness rather than a collection of club-churning floor-fillers. That said, the movement in each of these tracks is undeniably infectious, speaking directly to our souls through its spellbinding synths. While each of the four tracks satisfies with its sonic sojourn, I'm particularly fond of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5UFOdaW3yGwukE70N8jgDB?si=dd4d31843ed54a5c" target="_blank">Remedy</a>" and "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/4PZSc9y3zIQwRUyNbMWMr4?si=e3b8b80ad261473a" target="_blank">Undertones</a>," both of which engender awesome grooves that not only reach irresistible levels but also seem to hold some hidden meaning, an edifying, inspiriting essence. The power of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5UFOdaW3yGwukE70N8jgDB?si=dd4d31843ed54a5c" target="_blank">Remedy</a>" strengthens its listeners, helping them stand taller and more confident.

Another one from The Upload, "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/gary-j/premiere-ap-husko-1984-nice-recordings" target="_blank">1984</a>" doesn't have anything to do with Orwell, but rather the Martha And The Muffins' single from that same year, "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0OXG4LNM8mVbCi20EpKRVN?si=49acec2d54c14557" target="_blank">Black Stations/White Stations</a>." Seamless sampling and a more hefty backing make it a wicked dancefloor weapon. Finally, the <a href="https://soundcloud.com/8kays" target="_blank">8Kays</a>' <a href="https://soundcloud.com/eleatics" target="_blank">Eleatics</a> EP rounds out the Soundcloud section of this Monday mix, and what an excellent EP it is. I keep going back and forth on whether I like the originals or the remixes better, but you really can't go wrong. Both versions of "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/eleatics/premiere-8kays-lazarusman-respect-me-eleatics-records" target="_blank">Respect Me</a>" are incredible in their mix of restraint and rippling techno power, just as both mixes of "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/progressiveastronaut/premiere-8kays-young-souls-feat-aquarius-heaven-eleatics-records" target="_blank">Young Souls</a>" manage to infect you with their otherworldly grooves and alien effects. </div><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="80" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/0J1LHPRO4y7yDRFscEaOGk" width="100%"></iframe><a href="https://soundcloud.com/effin" target="_blank">Effin</a>'s debut on the mighty <a href="https://soundcloud.com/monstercat" target="_blank">Monstercat</a> further cements his status as an arsonist as "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/5kjNh7pX5W5TgFdRpJ5XSp?si=EIWsv7OqQfGGkfLpZHFLrA&dl_branch=1" target="_blank">Unlucky</a>" is a breathtaking blaze. Like the <a href="https://soundcloud.com/8kays" target="_blank">8Kays</a> originals above, the most incredible thing about this track is the contrasting clean, minimal sections against the mayhem of percussion and bass in the drops. And then there's the infernal horn section. If you're not already, be sure to keep it locked on <a href="https://soundcloud.com/effin" target="_blank">Effin</a>. <div><iframe seamless="" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3482035301/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=2ebd35/artwork=small/transparent=true/" style="border: 0; height: 307px; width: 100%;"><a href="https://formationrecordsuk.bandcamp.com/album/signal-loss-ep">Signal Loss EP by Dunk</a></iframe></div><div>More of the aforementioned minimal stuff thrives here with <a href="https://soundcloud.com/dunkdnb" target="_blank">Dunk</a>'s deep and dark DnB EP, <i><a href="https://formationrecordsuk.bandcamp.com/album/signal-loss-ep" target="_blank">Signal Loss</a></i>. Moody, cold and callous futurescapes give this release the feeling of a neo-noir game of interstellar espionage. In fact, the more I listen to it, I feel like its high-stakes tension would work well against the scenes of Gene Hackman tailing his prey in <i><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067116/" target="_blank">The French Connection</a></i>.</div><div><iframe seamless="" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2835271288/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=2ebd35/artwork=small/transparent=true/" style="border: 0; height: 208px; width: 100%;"><a href="https://infraredrecords.bandcamp.com/album/j-majik-full-circle-remixes-pt-1">J Majik - Full Circle Remixes Pt.1 by Infrared Records</a></iframe></div><div>Finally, we round out this collection with two killer remixes from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/champa-b" target="_blank">Champa B</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/tim-reaper" target="_blank">Tim Reaper</a>. Both highly-charged rollercoaster rides, "<a href="https://infraredrecords.bandcamp.com/track/j-majik-serenity-champa-b-remix" target="_blank">Serenity</a>" is somehow more fire than "<a href="https://infraredrecords.bandcamp.com/track/j-majik-meridian-tim-reaper-remix" target="_blank">Meridian</a>," with its relentless percussive charges and bass booms, while the latter leans more cool and contemplative, especially through the pristine piano.</div>Oggie Jameshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03779055402298899231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2993950130484766178.post-46079757435397675142021-08-06T15:36:00.000-04:002021-08-06T15:36:23.785-04:00Enlightened Listening for August 6<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcRV_DLRC6IGuYVvluljtWudySwWpQQE3FLPLrGb87rqTGKXW33Q3tcF-ENlnCLpnKRmeMjPDzCPP0TBG_Fn5nc-fNJK6LIHSBayQbEcTDD4312h4DAuPHHcZRxXygbEL1D1iJw7p6EhZf/s2048/Aug+61.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1229" data-original-width="2048" height="336" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcRV_DLRC6IGuYVvluljtWudySwWpQQE3FLPLrGb87rqTGKXW33Q3tcF-ENlnCLpnKRmeMjPDzCPP0TBG_Fn5nc-fNJK6LIHSBayQbEcTDD4312h4DAuPHHcZRxXygbEL1D1iJw7p6EhZf/w400-h240/Aug+61.jpg" width="560" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It's that time again, time for another edition of our weekly new-music playlist, <a href="https://enlightenmentforyourears.blogspot.com/search/label/Enlightened%20Listening" target="_blank">Enlightened Listening</a>. The theme of this week would appear to be triumphant returns/blasts from the past. The first of those three thematic leaders is <a href="https://soundcloud.com/fake-blood" target="_blank">Fake Blood</a>, who delivers 10 new tracks in the latest release centred around Ian Urbina's <i>The Outlaw Ocean</i>. Immediately after that in the playlist is <a href="https://soundcloud.com/twrk" target="_blank">TWRK</a> classic "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/twrk/badinga" target="_blank">BaDinga</a>," as refreshed and reloaded by <a href="https://soundcloud.com/sliinkofficial" target="_blank">DJ Sliink</a>. Finally, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/pointpoint/" target="_blank">Point Point</a> make a triumphant return with their first new release in over 3 years. Staying with the retro trend, that's what <a href="https://soundcloud.com/theweeknd" target="_blank">The Weeknd</a> delivers in his new single "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/6OGogr19zPTM4BALXuMQpF?si=fd17386e27da4f7c" target="_blank">Take My Breath</a>," a spiritual successor to "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0VjIjW4GlUZAMYd2vXMi3b?si=8d9e9792dda74b1f" target="_blank">Blinding Lights</a>."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Of course, that <a href="https://soundcloud.com/theweeknd" target="_blank">Weeknd</a> track is a standout, but there's plenty of others worth paying attention to. Both of the LPs from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/monkeysafari" target="_blank">Monkey Safari</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/lakou-mizik" target="_blank">Lakou Mizik</a>/<a href="https://soundcloud.com/josephraymusic" target="_blank">Joseph Ray</a> are incredible rides, just as the singles from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/ben-bohmer" target="_blank">Ben Böhmer</a>, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/franc-moody" target="_blank">Franc Moody</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/iamlouislaroche" target="_blank">Louis La Roche</a> are utterly intoxicating. Finally, I just have to give it up to <a href="https://soundcloud.com/tailsxbeats" target="_blank">tails</a> for an impressive EP on <a href="https://soundcloud.com/bitbird" target="_blank">bitbird</a>, as <i><a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/3AWW7zJ2NbTz57WLxD70HA?si=9c4139c6ceb143ff" target="_blank">photos of the sun</a> </i>is brilliantly inspired.

That said, this new version of "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/youngr_music/wave-lettice-rowbotham-fenna-rhodes-youngr-bootleg" target="_blank">Wave</a>" is decidedly more electronic, more groovy and more dancefloor-filling. The vocals and violin continue to serve as the punctuating highlights, but the new underlying electronics take "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/youngr_music/wave-lettice-rowbotham-fenna-rhodes-youngr-bootleg" target="_blank">Wave</a>" to new energizing heights.

It instantly injects the adrenaline necessary to make it through the fiery first hour that features bangers from wave and reggae to dubstep and DnB. After that fierce first hour, we cool things off in the second with sublime swells and gorgeous grooves. In fact, that second section is led by an 'after-hours' mix and closes with <a href="https://soundcloud.com/cloudnone" target="_blank">CloudNone</a>'s titular "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/monstercat/cloudnone-last-train-home" target="_blank">Last Train Home</a>."

Last week, the project's third single, "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music/london-paris-berlin" target="_blank">London. Paris. Berlin.</a>" showcased <a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music" target="_blank">Shire T</a>'s more restrained, organic and melodic side, especially following the earlier, more electronically charged, acid-tinged offerings, "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music/blue-kiss" target="_blank">Blue Kiss</a>" and "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music/full-attention" target="_blank">Full Attention</a>."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">All but abandoning the darker, more aggressive and driving sounds at the heart of this project, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music" target="_blank">Shire T</a> instead turns inward here for a soulful slice, nailing the nostalgic theme with tender play on his childhood piano. That said, this is no mere downtempo, ambient tearjerker. The electronic essence remains as the synths guide the gorgeous organic instrumentation. And what a crisp, cool and captivating ride "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music/london-paris-berlin" target="_blank">London. Paris. Berlin.</a>" is. The growth, both in groove and instrumentation, is simply sublime, especially as the vocals, piano and synths all swell together.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Further proof that <i><a href="https://shire-t.lnk.to/topSo" target="_blank">Tomorrow's People</a> </i>is a can't miss project, stream "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/shiret-music/london-paris-berlin" target="_blank">London.

Sorted from light, light-hearted and groovy to heavy, deep and banging, the 16 releases feature countless trusted names, several pre-album singles, and yes, a trio of awesome Anjuna offerings. Finally, I will note that, while not in the playlist, the two tracks I wrote about earlier this week, "<a href="https://enlightenmentforyourears.blogspot.com/2021/07/sebastian-metallica-dont-tread-on-else.html" target="_blank">Don't Tread On Else Matters</a>" and "<a href="https://enlightenmentforyourears.blogspot.com/2021/07/machinedrum-only-one-ft-angelica-bess.html" target="_blank">Only One</a>," are just as highly recommended as the rest of these fine productions.

This week, that track comes from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hudsonlee" target="_blank">Hudson Lee</a>, who is set to drop his album, <i><a href="https://hudsonlee.bandcamp.com/album/reflex-angle" target="_blank">Reflex Angle</a>, </i>this Friday. "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/hudsonlee/chasm" target="_blank">Chasm</a>," one of the pre-release singles, not only shares much of the same obsidian sonic plane as much of this week's dark dubstep and DnB, but it also matches said theme with its alluring, abstract, and most importantly, shaded album artwork. Featuring indomitable drums, destructive synths and eventually a jazzy, computer-virus-powered finale, it is exactly the kind of enigmatic genius we've come to expect from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hudsonlee" target="_blank">Hudson Lee</a>. Get "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/hudsonlee/chasm" target="_blank">Chasm</a>" now below, pre-order it as part of <i><a href="https://hudsonlee.bandcamp.com/album/reflex-angle" target="_blank">Reflex Angle</a></i>, and see <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hudsonlee" target="_blank">Hudson Lee</a> live twice this weekend, Friday and Saturday at <a href="https://twitter.com/UpscaleHQ/status/1416477748248285184" target="_blank">Upscale Fest</a>.

Spanning genres and continents, the <i><a href="https://www.metallica.com/the-metallica-blacklist/" target="_blank">Metallica Blacklist</a></i> project features all kinds of incredible and unlikely artists and their renditions of the all-time album. <a href="https://soundcloud.com/j-balvin-official" target="_blank">J Balvin</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/st_vincent" target="_blank">St. Vincent</a> are among the two earliest entrants, while <a href="https://soundcloud.com/rinasawayama" target="_blank">Rina Sawayama</a>, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/weezer" target="_blank">Weezer</a>, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/chaseandstatus" target="_blank">Chase & Status</a>, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/dave-gahan-official" target="_blank">Dave Gahan</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/darius-rucker-music" target="_blank">Darius Rucker</a>, to name a few, are still in store, with the full compilation dropping September 10th.<div><br /></div><div>However, today is about <a href="https://soundcloud.com/sebastian1-music" target="_blank">SebastiAn</a>, who, as far as I can tell, is the only artist to take on multiple tracks, combining "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0PDThNPaf3ganx4PFmGznK?si=86bc8811ebb84438" target="_blank">Don't Tread On Me</a>" and "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/10igKaIKsSB6ZnWxPxPvKO?si=5705a1f99107428b" target="_blank">Nothing Else Matters</a>." Throwing a curveball right from the start, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/sebastian1-music" target="_blank">SebastiAn</a> sets the mood with a funky opening that features "<a href="https://sebastian.bandcamp.com/album/metallica-dont-tread-on-else-matters-sebastian-remix" target="_blank">an improbable encounter of Freddie Mercury hanging out with Prince in a smoky downtown L.A. rave.</a>" Surprisingly, or perhaps not, these groovy guitar licks fit fabulously with the bristling bass and James Hetfield's gritty vocals. Even better, the groove grows fatter and funkier with additional horns bolstering the sound, pushing things further towards the orchestral final two-thirds of the track. Just as the funkiness fades, the strings and horns swell into the meat of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/03IE1qV1aqWAQuYuYwPdv5?si=7aec743dae664cd6" target="_blank">Don't Tread On Else Matters</a>," the ominous and stunning electro-symphony of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/10igKaIKsSB6ZnWxPxPvKO?si=5705a1f99107428b" target="_blank">Nothing Else Matters</a>."</div><div><br /></div><div>Absolutely flooring, there is no denying the fever-pitch power of <a href="https://soundcloud.com/sebastian1-music" target="_blank">SebastiAn</a>'s recombinant rendition of these two <a href="https://soundcloud.com/officialmetallica" target="_blank">Metallica</a> mainstays.

One of said slip-through-the-cracks type tracks, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/bella-boo" target="_blank">Bella Boo</a>'s remix of "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/catzndogz/modern-romance-bella-boo-remix" target="_blank">Modern Romance</a>," had me immediately kicking myself. Capturing my attention with its first few fluorescent and colourful notes, this new direction is all kinds of cool. Like a trip to a candy shop for your ears, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/bella-boo" target="_blank">Bella Boo</a> takes on the role of sonic confectioner glazing the <a href="https://soundcloud.com/catzndogz" target="_blank">Catz 'n Dogz</a>/Gerd Janson collab with an irresistible aroma that, like a cartoon, will have you floating towards its tongue-smacking scent. While the sweetness of the new top notes is unmistakable, "<a href="https://soundcloud.com/catzndogz/modern-romance-bella-boo-remix" target="_blank">Modern Romance</a>" isn't just saccharine sapidity as <a href="https://soundcloud.com/bella-boo" target="_blank">Bella Boo</a> has kept just enough of the original track's bitter, buoyant low end to counterbalance the sonic sweetness. And of course, it's all held together by the brilliant breaks that made the original so seductive, and indeed, scrumptious.

Leading the way is a monumental ten-artist collaboration led by Mix Master Mike. It's followed by two tremendous multi-track releases from <a href="https://soundcloud.com/daktylmusic" target="_blank">Daktyl</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/djmurlo" target="_blank">Murlo</a>, both of which are undeniable highlights of this playlist. Turning our attention back to singles, the next five releases move from the always impeccable vibes of <a href="https://soundcloud.com/keysnkrates" target="_blank">Keys N Krates</a>, through <a href="https://soundcloud.com/isoxo" target="_blank">ISOxo</a>'s electrifying <a href="https://soundcloud.com/sablevalley" target="_blank">Sable Valley</a> offering "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/3nbfRS3m6T07sQHGh79Pyj?si=5d9157c91fd54ee7" target="_blank">Aarena</a>," and into fabulously fat and fierce <a href="https://soundcloud.com/ellm-dnb" target="_blank">ELLM</a> remix of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/6bm5aICaqgQxSIZIkRON7g?si=62912cc098604b0c" target="_blank">One Life</a>." Quality Canadian content follows with <a href="https://soundcloud.com/bensley" target="_blank">Bensley</a>, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/sultanshepard" target="_blank">Sultan + Shepard</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/cri-music" target="_blank">CRi</a>, who you'll be sure to hear more of on <a href="https://enlightenmentforyourears.blogspot.com/search/label/Bump%20In%20The%20Hump" target="_blank">Bump In The Hump</a>. Restraint and beauty take center stage with the next three releases, each of which shines sublime. Taking a different turn, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/deadmau5" target="_blank">deadmau5</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/lights" target="_blank">Lights</a>' "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/07j6XDeOaX8wytMW5s9Yfz?si=d79ba362cb894ffa" target="_blank">When The Summer Dies</a>" gets a groovy, alternative mix. Powering into the final five releases, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/theokottis" target="_blank">Theo Kottis</a> kicks things off with a delightful double dose of sonic sunshine ahead of a ridiculously resplendent dub mix of "<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/2318QKTBnLBThele0tbuAm?si=f00d21ee21c54587" target="_blank">Cruel Summer</a>." Turning darker, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/claudevonstroke" target="_blank">Claude VonStroke</a> and <a href="https://soundcloud.com/walker-and-royce" target="_blank">Walker & Royce</a> combine for a pair of brilliant <a href="https://soundcloud.com/dirtybirdrecords" target="_blank">Dirtybird</a> drops.
