Fatboy Slim Vs Lazy Rich - Weapon Of Choice (2010)
OUT NOW on all download stores is the Lazy Rich remix of 'Weapon Of Choice' by Fatboy Slim.
No.1 in Beatport and lots of great support from Van Burren, Van Helden, Tong, Jules, Fedde Le Grande, Carl Cox, Wally Lopez and many more.
When "Weapon Of Choice" came out back in 2002 the tune itself was over shadowed by the amazing Spike Jonze video featuring Christopher Walken now the track has been brought out of the shadows with one of the best remixes in living memory Canada based Lazy Rich drops a serious mix twisting the beats and legendary flying riff into a dance Floor Destroyer.
The bass is still a great groove and percussion is tight while the riffs and hooks do all the work, you may have loved the amazing video but now it's time to enjoy this new masterpiece.
You can buy this release from the following:
Lazy Rich has also got a Top Ten up on Track It Down which you can check out. Use link below:
Big beats!

Rory Hoy - Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Iz
Following the success of his two albums released on Freddy Fresh's label 'Howlin Records', Under 5's have captured this rare glimpse of old style funky breaks and twisted it with two remixes by Linton Brown and Jack Barron.
The originals are a mixture of funky bass, sharp hooky vocal samples, and a big beat moving on through.
On the remixes, Linton Brown takes 'Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Iz' down dub step town with a nice catchy bassline to step to, whilst Jack Barron re works 'Keep It Down' with a nu school breaks edge to it accompanied by a warpy bassline to get lost in.
Available on all download stores, here is a selection to buy from the following:

Alex Graham - Monolith / Mayacas Liman - Full Release Out Now!
'Monolith' is a massive slab of jacking techno/house with all the bits in all the right places, percussion heavy and with a tribal groove 'monolith' should cut the mustard with the most discerning of dancefloors. This tune is sonically massive and dynamic enough to excite anyone with a heartbeat. Monolith represents the start of something truly special for this producer/DJ and is one of the reasons he is steadily building a massive fan base in his home country.
'Monolith' comes with a great set of remixes from the up and coming Jaimy who builds on the tribal vibe of the original and Linton Brown who takes the track into messy heavy bassline territory which will please UK funky, dub step and fidget fans alike.
This release is backed with another beauty in the shape of 'Mayacas Liman'. Alex comes on with a bit of wonky-prog with this storming and slightly twisted chugging B-side.
