As we abstained from last Monday's Mixtape session due to political reasons we have made up for it by giving you a bumper addition this week which includes: our very own Quantum cadet, Monkey with a Dubstep selection he mixed up for 3zee1's show on Sub FM last week; a Take Flight Club mix from Doc Daneeka, who we first came across through his nights at the Monkey Bar in Swansea although we didn't make the link to his latest alias when we first heard Metabeats dropping some of his UK Funkier than though tracks recently; next is Metabeats' Darkhouse Family bredren Don Leisure with the first of a new monthly mix series, dropping some seriosuly tasty Liquid Soul and Future Hip-hop. We then hop over to South Africa as Liver gives us a homegrown mini mix selection from Cape Town and finally, a firm favourite of ours and the first to actually introduce us to Liver, Boom Monk Ben with a killer selection, something of a fusion of all the other mixes in one handy helping.

Although most UK Funky heads probably don't know who Poirier is, he's been a big pioneer in fusing Soca riddims with Bass music. His new night Karnival at Club Soda in Montreal is guaranteed to live up to the name and be a lively explosion of music and madness. Certainly if this promotional mix by Poirier is anything to go by it will be. Ninja Tune just sent it over as they're dropping a new EP 'Run The Riddim' from the man himself on 28th September.

The guys over at Berlin label Shockout take the Tropical Bass sound to a new level with their latest release. The Disciples of Dread EP is the sonic equivalent of being at Trinidad Carnival when someone spikes the rum punch with Ketamine and the place is over run by a Haitian Voodoo Gang. Dark, twisted and kinda scary at times but also upbeat, fun filled and refreshing. Tracks come courtesy of: BADXMAN, a relative newcomer to the scene; Breakcore come Dubstep don Cardopusher; and Kid606 who is as hard to categorise as he is to keep up with. Here's a mix with 3 of the featured tracks plus one in full to whet your appetite.

We've given you a few more than usual today as we're off to brave the mud (or not, fingers triple crossed) at Glastonbury. If you happen to be going or manage to blag your way in before Saturday we shall be playing in the early hours of Sunday Morning (2am til 3am to be precise) over at the Baseline Tent in Shangri La. Come get rowdy, if not we hopefully return after the weekend.

With a big pot of tribal electronic beats for the streets L-Vis 1990 has just dropped this new mix to warn anyone planning on visiting Fabric in London this Friday (June 5th) that things are going to go off in Room 2 on a monumental scale.

It's something a little different from what we expected after his extremely cheeky bootlegs have found themselves a heavy rotation at Chrome Mansions. Although his dirty and deep UK Funky style is still noticeable in there at some places, there are times when the mix sounds like an Endor forest battle against the Imperial Stormtroopers transplanted to somewhere in the Congo and at others like a full on lunar rave up (in the best possible way of course).

L-Vis 1990 will be rocking Room 2 with Rob Da Bank & Friends, which also sees Tim Exile and Beardyman doing their thing, whilst the likes of Sinden and Toddla T tear up Room 1.

(ZShare) L-Vis 1990: Fabric Promo Mix '09

1. Untold – Anaconda (L-vis 1990 Chopped n’ Screwed Mix)
2. Christian Martin – Elephant fight (Justin Martins Jungle Remix)
3. Crystal Fighters – Exatic Truth (L-Vis 1990 Remix)
4. Boris Rush – Miami Push (Franky Rizardo Remix)

6. Emvee – Glitch Dub
7. Zinc – Pimp My Ride
8. L-Vis 1990 – United Groove

11. Justin Martin – My Angelic Demons
12. Diplo & Laidback Luke – Hey! (L-Vis 1990 remix)
13. L-Vis 1990 – Come Together

Plus here's a few examples of his boundary blurring between Dubstep and UK Funky, or Dubble Step as he calls it...

The unstoppable Sydney based duo KillaQueenz finally drop their debut album on Grindin this Friday (June 5th).

Sistarhood includes a number of notable guest vocal and production slots from fellow Aussie artists such as Spit Syndicate, Ru C.L., Vida Sunshyne, Katalyst and M-Phazes, but for us the stand out track has to be the lead single which sees the mighty South Rakkas Crew on the beats and British Bashment bad gyal Lady Chann (Suncycle / Yes King) on the hook.

Which also gives us a great excuse to post up a copy of Lady Chann's mixtape which we've been meaning to share with you for a while now, ever since we grabbed it off her twitterings. Also, if you haven't picked up her dangerous UK Funky track Your Eye Too Fast (produced by Sticky) then sort it out. Fiyah indeed!

(SS) Lady Chann - The New Queen Of The Dancehall Mix

For some reason these tracks are in wma files except for the outro in m4a but don't watch that.

Contender for album of the year has to be DJ Vadim's U Can't Lurn Imaginashun out on BBE. With an already impressive back catalogue of beefed up digital beats featuring a wide range of worldwide talent, and in the face of a whole string of adversities including his recent battle with eye cancer, this album is most definitely a case of lion going from strength to strength. For us one of the stand out tracks is the mix of acoustic reggae vibes and tongue trippin' rhymes that make up the track Soldier, a refix of the track Soldat by Ukrainian duo 5Nizza, with added phat beats and additional vocals from Big Red (not to be confused with the British rapper of the same name) out of seminal French Ragga Hip-hop crew Raggasonic.

(YSI) DJ Vadim ft. Wretch 32, Kyza and Orifice Vulgatron - Soldier (The Last Skeptic Re Re Remix) / alt link

We're not sure exactly how much has changed from the original remix (are you confused yet?) but it seems that the UK version keeps hardly anything from the original, which is a shame but then with emcees such as: new Grime golden boy, Wretch 32; Kyza, who seems to have made it his mission to out do the rest of his former Terra Firma family (and is doing a good job at it too); and of course the mighty Orifice Vulgatron from Foreign Beggars, it stands up as a strong seperate track in it's own right. As the name suggests this is a remix of the remix (of the refix) in a UK Garage meets UK Funky (meets UK Hip-hop) style from The Last Skeptic, who has graced us with some incredible versions of various tracks lately (Marina & The Diamonds, Mongrel) and is just finishing off an album of them at the moment.

The next installment of Spoek Mathambo (Playdoe) and Big Space's (aka DJ Snyman) H.I.V.I.P excursions that aim to bring South Africa's finest mixes of 'Afrotech, Zulucore Space Disco, Tribal, UK Funky and Pretoria House' to the masses comes from their fellow Cape Townite DJ Mastercash. Spoek says he wants people to come visit South Africa and dance, well this is certainly some quality enticement.

Also out of South Africa, check these stunning slices of Electro-pop from Spoek collaborator (on the Moleke Mbembe project)Richard the Third from his album Third World From the Sun.
