Little Jinder is one of our top contenders for female electropop artist of 2008 (up there with Little Boots and La Roux) and it seems like we’re not the only ones that thinks she’s amazing. NYC label Trouble & Bass are going ga-ga for her and she’s just been nominated as “Most promising act in 2009″ for the Swedish Rockbjörnen MySpace award. Cast your vote and while you’re at it, listen to her brand new and slow dancey track “Youth Blood”.

UK producer Baobinga just dropped the bassfilled single “State Of Ghetto Jacking” on NYC label Trouble & Bass. The single comes backed with remixes from Baltimore producer extraordinaire Dave Nada and Croatian producer TRG. To promote the EP, Trouble & Bass are giving away his remix of Drop The Limes amazing track “I Love NY”.

Philadelphian producer Starkey (of Seclusiasis + Trouble & Bass fame) is about to release the album “Ephemeral Exhibits” on Planet Mu next monday. The track “Pressure” showcases Starkey’s Street Bass sound which sees him pairing off grime and melodic dubstep to create sort of a Philly version of London club music.

Heavy bass champion Drop The Lime releases what could be one of the biggest tracks in months. “Hear Me” drops on Trouble & Bass today and new British whiz producer Drums Of Death has been killing it lately and this evil remix is no exception. It made the rounds last week but we just got permission to post it. DOD keeps most of Lucas vocals and heavy bass but adds some trickery and voila!

The mighty Trouble & Bass crew (Drop The Lime, The Captain, Star Eyes & Math Head) will take the jump across the Atlantic to London tomorrow for an apperance at Night Slugs (run by our homie Alex Bok Bok). The night will serve as a launch party for the fantastic new Drop The Lime single “Hear Me” and it will most likely be insane. Those of you in London should try to hit this but those of us unfortunate not be able to make it to this will have to listen to these tracks + mixes while imaging being liquored up and feeling that bass pound against our bodies.

First out is this tune by L-Vis 1990:

L-Vis 1990 – Apple Bass (zShare)

Then we have a Bok Bok tune from the start of 08 that never saw the light of day:

Bok Bok – Whole World Changing 4×4 (zShare)

Then we have this brand new Drop The Lime mix on which Luca sings and everything:

Drop The Lime – Summer City Heat mix (Sendspace)

Last but not least a Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990 back to back effort from the Night Slugs show on Sub FM last week.

“Lots of dubplates, UK house and deep vocal flavas on this one as well as our usual heavyeight bassline selection (though less of that and more of the percussive shit) – definitely a showcase of how we’re sounding at the moment!”

20-year-old Stockholm electropop singstress Little Jinder is one of our favorite acts to emerge from this fair country during the last year. Now she’s releasing the remix version of her debut EP “Polyhedron” on NYC label Trouble & Bass. The EP sees remixes from top heavy bass players such as Drop The Lime, AC Slater, Goon & Koyote, Math Head etc. French producer Mikix The Cat also did one and it’s the one we have for you today. Mikix gives us a version that’s starts out all slow and sweet with a steady beat and Josefines pretty voice but then quickly dissolves into a sharp and wobbly basspacked ride bound for the dancefloor.

New dj mix from Portuguese Buraka Som Sistema and it’s a fierce showdown of kuduro mixed with ghettotech, grime, electro etc. Watch out for their debut album “Black Diamond” that should drop any time now. (Thanks to Trouble & Bass)
