Come In Number 3 Your Time Is Up


As Music By Numbers get's ready to roll into night Number 3 we thought we'd warm you up with some remixes courtesy of special guest Foamo. We've not yet managed to catch him doing his thing so really looking forwards to this.

Capitalise On That Friday Feeling At Fabric


Fabric prove themselves to be the super club to end all once again this Friday with another monumental line up that seems to come as standard for them.

This time it's artists such as Scratch Perverts, Foreign Beggars, Jackbeats, Poirier & MC Zulu, DJ Hype, Mumdance and Badness that might well tempt us down for another visit.

Here's a little taster of Room 3 which will be occupied by the Dirty Canvas fellas.

This Is The Life


Backed up by a soundtrack that spans over two decades of clubbing, all wrapped up in a tasty present day pastiche, New York City’s Vinyl Life at first sound a bit like classic Jungle Brothers, only with haircuts and designer jeans, before delving deeper into the club, ending up in the ladies toilets doing lines off somebody's breast, losing any associations with the Brother's afrocentric meanderings on the dancefloor of the club's sweaty backroom where all the really cool kids hang out.

Finally they hit the after party and it ain't stopping til way past 6am as their forthcoming self titled album and Jack The Hype mix are left to loop round on the player until the very last few remaining people are left standing... and that's probably going to be Vinyl Life themselves.

Coded Language


Some may remember Newport based Electro rhymers Binary Kids from the Session they did on our Radio 1 Takeover. Well they've been real busy at the moment supporting the likes of Lady Sovereign and N Dubz on their UK tours and working with Basment Jaxx amongst others. Dummy Mag have just posted up an article on them too, go check it out here for the full low down. They will also be playing the Dummy Party in London this Friday, get details here.

Higher Fidelity?


What happens when one of the West Coast's kings of bass heavy beats gets his hands on the Eastern tinted vibes from one of the East Coast's premier party crews? Coast to Coast fire that's what, this is high energy ragga roasted dirt driven flames at their highest and hottest. Taken from the eagerly awaited next installment of Sub Swara's Coup d'Yah Remix collection, Mochipet adds extra weight to an already scale smashing tune.

Rusko Firin' Like Torpedos


Picked up this gargantuan grinding remix of the classic Bad Company track from Rusko's twitterings. More like laser torpedoes fired from an Alien Submarine than the jump up space attack D&B of the original.

Leakin' The Atmosphere


Couldn't let one of our favourite Hip-hop crews ever drop a free EP without putting up a link for you guys at least. Slug is one of the few rappers left who can pluck those emotional strings better than many of the singers out there.
