Kendrick Lamar - The Recipe
I have to admit there is very little modern US hip-hop I like, I am not a huge fan of Kendrick but this song is undeniably brilliant.
A song about LA's abundance of potent weed, surprisingly I don't smoke but still find this song so uplifting.

Ladyhawke - Paris Is Burning
New Zealand born New Wave artist first released this song on her debut album 'Ladyhawke' in 2008. For which she gained instant recognition for.
This track is for all those Indie Scenesters who love Synth-pop. Electronic sounds combined with distorted guitars and uplifting lyrics. The verses clearly influenced by Gary Numan's 'Cars'.

Young Dot (Dot Rotten) - Get Outta The Hood
Back when Grime legend Dot Rotten was known as Young Dot, he released the Mixtape 'This is the Beginning' in 2006, growing up it was on a constant circulation on my mp3 player.
Dot Rotten (Young Dot) gained more of a reputation in his early days for his beats, he released a series of Instrumental CD's called 'Rotten Riddims' he produced for a wide ranged of artists, including himself.
This was the stand out track on this early mixtape for me. Very honest lyrics and a typically obscure beat that Dot fans are used to.

Four Tet - She Moves She
The legendary Londoner first released this song on his 2003 album 'Rounds' which he stated his Influences for being Hip-hop beat legends Dj Premier and Pete Rock. You can certainly hear those influences in this track.
The drum beat appears to be an arrangement of sample cuts, I could listen to it all day. The chiming soothing Eastern sounds are drowned out intermittently by sharp sample cuts. Like a lot of his work, this is a masterpiece.

Joy Division - Disorder
I feel that I don't have to justify this post with to much info, if you don't know about Joy Division, go out and learn about them.
This track was released on their debut album 'Unknown Pleasures' in 1979.

Mobb Deep - Still Shinin'
Taken from their 1996 third album 'Hell On Earth' which unfortunately doesn't get enough credit because of the previous album 'The Infamous' being so incredible.
However, this album is almost as good as the one before, making it one of the best Hip-hop albums of all time. If you like East coast Hip-hop then this is for you. If you don't know what East Coast Hip-hop is, then this track will explain.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Love Burns
The San Francisco trio released this song on their debut album 'B.R.M.C' which gained them big recognition instantly in underground music circuits worldwide. Their combination of Lo-fi grunge sounds and Indie shoegazing vibes reignited what appeared to be an almost extinct genre.

People Under The Stairs - Acid Raindrops
California based Hip-hop legends have been doing this since 1997, reviving the Native tongues style of Hip-hop, the jazzy samples and the smooth drums.
This track is taken from their 3rd 2002 album 'OST' the beat is by in-house producer 'Thes One'

Blur - There's No Other Way
A real classic when it comes to Brit-pop, this track is nostalgic for anyone who lived during the 90's in the UK.
Released on their debut album 'Leisure' in 1991. It has all the ingredients of a great track. The hardest decision is deciding whether you prefer the chorus or verse.
Enjoy People
The Verve - Star Sail
Before Wigan heroes 'The Verve' were known as a brit-pop powerhouse. They had gained a cult following in the shoegazing scene with their first album 'A Storm In Heaven'.
Their debut album, released in 1993, was a perfect combination of catchy melodies, reverb drenched vocals and swirling guitars.

Syron - Breaking
A great newish track by London vocalist Syron, a very motive track with heavy influences from both 2-step garage and Funky house.
You could throw this track back to the late 90's and it would fit right in.

London Grammar - Hey Now
Genuienlly surprised at myself for posting something that is currently in the charts, and I wouldn't need to if this wasn't such a good song.
The first song on their debut album, this displays the trio perfectly. A simple mix of Trip-hop and uplifting vocals. The best comparison I have heard is 'Florence and the machine meets The XX' that's pretty much it.
Great song.

Happy Mondays - Hallelujah (club mix)
House music legend Paul Oakenfold's club mix of a Happy Mondays song. I am a die hard Happy Mondays song, but I have to say, I prefer this to the original.
In total, 3 official remixes were released, this one was first released on the 'Hallelujah EP' in 1989.
Enjoy People
The Fall - I Feel Voxish
The Fall, often described as the only band that never sold out. The only remaining member is songwriter / frontman extraordinaire Mark E Smith. It's not unfair to say that he is The Fall, widely known as a miserable and bitter Mancunian psychopath, he has gained notoriety for many controversial interviews as well as his unique mixture of kitchen sink themes and Avant Garde style lyrics.
The band are known to have heavily influenced The Smiths, Joy Division, Sonic Youth as well as being John Peels favourite band.

DJ Food - The Crow
This epic Jazzy production, is one of my favourite tracks by London electronic project DJ Food.
DJ Food was originally started by members of the legendary Cold Cut group, and naturally released on London Indie label 'Ninja Tune'.
This song came out on the 2000 album 'Kaleidoscope' combining the Nu-jazz sound you would expect to here from the Ninja Tune label, as well as Ambient and Down-tempo sounds, sharp percussion samples give the song a nice rhythm.
Enjoy People
Amadou & Miriam - Sarama
A moving masterpiece by Malian blues legends. I can't say enough of about Amadou & Miriam for people to understand quite how genius the two of them are.
Blind husband and wife met at an institute for the blind in their home city of Bamako, they connected with their joint love of music, and began writing. Amadou on the guitar / backing vocals and Miriam usually lead vocals as well as dabbling in percussion instruments, they have found their way around the world, gaining wide spread accolades both inside and outside of the 'World' music scene.
Unfortunately I cannot find much out about this song, I first heard it on a African Blues compilation CD I bought and this track stood out above the rest. If you like this song and want to hear more of them, I would recommend buying their 1999 album 'Sou ni tilé'

A2 - I'm The King
A rare occasion when I post a grime track, couldn't help blogging this one though.
London grime artist A2 is said to be following in the footsteps of Stockwell MC Dot Rotten, as he produces his own beats.
