An amazing remix from Kieran Hebden, aka Four Tet, one of the most respected artists on the electronic music scene. Instead of cutting, switching and looping vocal samples like he has done on many of his most popular songs (Angel Echoes, Love Cry, etc), he instead lets Ultraísta's original vocals play mostly undisturbed. This works beautifully, providing a ringing clarity alongside a deep, rich bassline and a typically percussive, minimal beat.

'Tell Him' - Esperanza Spalding
Any performance that can make me smile at strangers on the way home from a 9 hour shift is a winner to me...

Jazzanova/DJ Ghe
Shimmying neatly into the spaces provided by an industry increasingly thirsty for jazz/swing/house fusions, Jazzanova are a new personal favourite alongside acts such as Parov Stelar and Tosca.

Justin Vernon
There has never been an artist more expressive about heartbreak... This is just one of Justin Vernon's heart-wrenching creations.
I have buried you
Every place I've been
You keep ending up
In my shaking hands
