Bondax - Gold (Wolf Cub's Muscle Mix)

   

We're big fans of Bondax's 'Gold' here and of the many remixes which have surfaced since it's release...but none more so than Wolf Cub's. 
The original already has the smooth Bondax-groove sound, but Leeds, UK based Wolf Cub has taken it up to 11, with the kind of warm Tropical Electro vibe that might just be eough to finally melt away all this snow and bring us an early summer.
Failing that, it's one hell of a FREE download, so grab it here.

Bonobo - Emkay (Morning High Remix)

   

Atlanta's Morning High always seems to stay true to his name, producing just the kind of musical highs that make it worth getting out of bed in the morning. Naturally his remix game is just as finely tuned, especially when taking as fine a canvas as Bonobo's 'Emkay'.
As you might expect, centre stage goes to Morning High's lovingly crafted percussive arrangement, whilst the fine string melody of original is stripped back to its most basic and yet most charming. Perhaps most importantly, the tempo's been brought done, giving the track a real 2step groove vibe, fleshed out with sub bass touches and that subtle chopped up vocal sample. The end product is a hard one to define...you might say; it's like Flying Lotus and MJ Cole had a love child? Well maybe...You might wonder; is it Future Garage? Doesn't matter.....
What's important is that it's good..very good, so don't mess around and be sure to grab the FREE download here, while it lasts.

Equator Club & Aztek - Gotta Have It

   

Equator Club consistently produces the kind of solid Garage/House vibes that go straight to the top of our most played list and his latest collab effort with fellow Chicago native Aztek is no exception to the rule.
'Gotta Have It', bears all the high production value and massive dancefloor appeal we come to expect from Equator Club. 
If 2step rhythms infused with a little 'trapped' out inspiration sounds like your bag, then be sure to check  out the track below and grab the FREE download via Facebook.

Jakwob - Fade (Etherwood VIP)

   

We've been falling a bit behind on posts here lately, with a particular lack of DnB in recent weeks. Luckily to make up for it we've got Etherwood's smooth liquid remix of 'Fade' by Jakwob. 
Etherwood keeps the best parts of the original intact with the beautiful piano work and Maiday's excellent vocals shining bright. The tempo on the other hand get's turned up to around the 170 mark, whilst a little eastern inspired flute and a subtle layer of sub-bass wobble are added to throughly compliment the new mix.
It's not a new direction, just a tactile drift down an alternate route to the same end, in other words; remix execution at it's finest.

Destiny's Child - Say My Name (Synthetic Epiphany Remix)

   

We've featured Synthetic Epiphany plenty of times before on The HotBox and for good reason; the young UK producer consistently produces high quality tracks, each with the kind of dark introspective vibe that can only come from music produced straight from the soul.
Though his tracks generally tend to take a more minimal direction with overt Dubstep and D&B influences, with this latest remix, Synthetic Epiphany has taken a rare turn toward the groovier side of House and Garage.
The result is solid remix of 'Say My Name', with all the dancefloor and sex appeal of the original riding that 4x4 beat all the way up to 11.
