Cellar D - Smoke & Mirrors
Atmospheric future garage from Egypt’s Cellar D(oor). I’m really glad he sent this to me because the stuff this guy makes is phenomenal and it’s almost a crime that he only has 11 Soundcloud followers. I highly suggest you check out some other works of his (namely these two) and download this one if you’re feeling it.

Koreless - Lost In Tokyo (2012)
Glasgow based Young’un Koreless comes through with a gem of tune called Lost In Tokyo released on Jacques Greene’s Vase label. Although it’s mostly ambiance with some vocal samples placed haphazardly through the track, it’s still one beautiful piece. Jacques also provides a very necessary remix on the B-side, if you need something to play out for the next few weeks.

Jacques Greene - Ready (2012)
Brand new Jacques Greene put out on Martyn’s 3024 imprint. Expect some well-made techno among Jacques’ usual future garage vibes. Available digitally (with a bonus track) and on vinyl.

Shlohmo - Vacation + Vacation Remixes (2012)
The first (and hopefully not last) batch of 2012 originals from Bay Area producer Shlohmo. If you’re interested in Vacation be sure to expect trap-esque beats paired with soft synths and a few filtered vocal samples (because who doesn’t love those?) As for the remixes, the names pretty much do the talking. Nicolas Jaar? Salva? Airhead? Should be enough to convince you.

Jacques Greene - The Look (2010) + Another Girl (2011)
The first and second releases from the rising Canadian producer, Jacques Greene. Both sophisticated and at the same time filled with the energy required to get clubs moving, I think the best way to describe Jacques’ sound is heavenly. Even more so with Another Girl, which is what I consider to being just an auditory form of the afterlife itself. There are also some tasty remixes on the Another Girl release, some of which rival Jacques’ already perfect originals.

Klaus - Tusk (2011)
A definite sleeper hit that arrived last year on the legendary Belgian label R & S. Of the very few times I have heard people talk about this EP there have been several comparisons to James Blake and Burial, but not in the copycat-ish way you’d expect it’s more of a “bastard child” sort of comparison. Highly recommended, especially if you’re into post dubstep / future garage.

Framework - It’s Killing Me (2012)
Another new release from the Canadian future garage label Infinite Machine. Framework might be a new name to the label (and most of you) but he fits the Infinite Machine mold of excellence perfectly. It’s also a name-your-price release so it’s available for free or you can choose to pay a bit of cash for it if you want to.

Sepalcure - Sepalcure (2011)
The debut album from Sepalcure, the duo made up of the NY based producers Praveen and Machinedrum. Since their formation in late 2009 the duo has described their sound as “lovestep” a mixture of dubstep, 2step and future garage. It’s a fitting label for some of the tracks on this album, but many of them seem to hold major house and UK Garage influences as well. Smooth vibes are spread evenly throughout the entire album, it’s well worth listening if you haven’t done so already.

Submerse - They Always Come Back (2012)
The prolific UK Producer is back once again! This time he appears on R & S sister label, Apollo with 4 new atmospheric future garage tunes. In a nutshell, They Always Come Back is just beautiful; and it serves as the perfect sampler for Submerse’s new album, Tears, which will appear both physically and digitally via Project Mooncircle on June 29th. Highly recommended!

HONEYCOMA - HONEYCOMA (2012)
Out of all the current Nightcore releases, only one them seems the most appropriate for this blog. The self titled EP from Los Angeles producer Honeycoma contains three minimalist tunes that dwell in the UKG realm. My favorite of the trio would have to be either the chilled out 2-stepper that is disconnect or the short-but-sweet tropical fog. If you need more Honeycoma in your life, you should check him out on Bandcamp and Soundcloud.
