Not sure if we quite made it in time to still be included as Monday, but f**k it, some place in the world is having a Monday right now so here you go. We got something a little different for you hear but if ever there was a reason to rip up the rule book, it's Pete Lawrie. This muti-talented, multi-instrumentalist, singer / songwriter will be no stranger to regular readers and here he gives a slight nod back to his days as a Hip-hop DJ / Producer, although this is perhaps a world away (despite a touch of Roots Manuva up in there). If this is a little too soulfully soothing for you we've put up a filthy mix of big and bashie Filth-step to keep you amused, from relative newcomers Plastic Thumbs.

Our favourite smokey soulster Pete Lawrie received some more blog loving for the Cousin Cole remix of his track All That We Keep last month but we just copped an exclusive from our Hollyrock homeboy Troublemaker that adds extra stomp whomping Hulk Hop heaviness to the track Black & Blue eating other remixes for breakfast, lunch and high tea. Check it out.

And if you missed the Speech Debelle remix of the same track or the Monkey remix of Panic. You can find them here and here respectively.

This is something a little different for us but I pledged some time ago to support Pete Lawrie any way possible, which means here he is. Definitely a hell of a shift since I first met a young DJ / Producer by the name of Itchy Fingers at our Higher Learning nights about 6 years ago. Since then he's proved himself to be a talented multi-instrumentalist but it wasn't until I discovered he could sing that he really blew me away. Gone is the Hip-hop moniker and sound, in comes one of the most refreshing singer / songwriters I've heard in a long time. Now signed to Field Recordings, an Island Records subsidiary and home to King Blues and Yoav, he is due to drop an album later this year. This recent version of one of the album tracks featuring Mercury Prize winning emcee Speech Debelle popped up a couple of days ago, but seeing as we're not the first ones to bring it to you, we've also given you an exclusive twisted tribal Dubstep remix from one of the Chrome Kids family of another track.

Also worth checking out is the Pete Lawrie Remixed Myspace where he's beautifully reworked some of his own tracks.
