THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS

I love the Chemical Brothers.  For me they're up there with Radiohead or Beck or Andre 3000.  When I was first got into electronic music in the mid 90s I fell in love with the album "Exit Planet Dust", it still holds up today, give it a listen.

What got me to posting this is I just got this in the email and it asked for help promoting this::

TAKE CARE

Take Care Of You (Isaac Jordan Rework) - Gil Scott-Heron ft Drake + Rihanna by IsaacJordan

Cooked up a more dj friendly version of Take Care last month using parts from the Jamie XX remix, the radio cut and layered some drums on top... ironically two posts after doing a feature on Common, everyone been keeping up with THE BEEF going on between them?

WHAT TIME IS IT

 What Time is it - Santero - FREE DOWNLOAD by Sugarbeat

New track from my favorite UK drinking buddy Santero, last years UK Red Bull champ. We tore it up in Nottingham last year while he was still in Nottingham.  If your in London look him up.

Here's info on the release:::

"Since his debut release on Sugarbeat alongside Credit to the Nation, Santero has covered a lot of ground. Picking up support from the likes of Kissy Sellout, Annie Nightingale and Groove Armada, he is building a strong reputation as a great producer. Always something special behind the decks he also took time out of the studio to enter the UK Red Bull Thre3style DJ competition, beating the likes of Oneman & Martelo on the way to becoming UK Champion, and cementing his place as one of the best DJs in the country. Now based out of London, Santero is most definitely on the up and a name to watch out for in 2012.
This release continues from where we left off with the very first EP. The lead track features the former front man metal singer turned Mc – Illaman from Tomb Crew who delivers the vocals on “We Bring The Vibes”. The track instantly sounds like one of those records that you think you already know, as the hook is so strong. Already getting airtime from 1 Xtra!"

And This: Santero "Best of 2011" mix

COMMON

Common's new joint "Sweet" gets me hype, I never heard him sound this aggressive before but I like it.  Its crazy to think that Resurrection is almost 20 years old now.  Here's a couple from my archives along with an intro edit of Sweet along with Jim Sharp's edit of The Light which fuses Common's The Light with the song it was sampled from (Bobby Caldwell "Open Your Eyes").  Me and Jim threw it down at the Old Queen's Head in London last December, good people right there and a hell of a DJ, give him a follow @JimSharpUK.

LIVE AT RUMOR

DJ ISAAC JORDAN + Live at RUMOR + Nov 2011 by IsaacJordan

This is 35 minutes I pulled out of a set from a couple weeks ago.  It's from later in the night and is a mix of progressive, electro, indie and euro tunes good for a morning run, drive to work, preparty or some random sex after you get back from the club with that girl or guy who's name you don't quite remember.  Anyone needing a track ID put it in the comments on soundcloud.

Shares on FB, twitter and soundcloud are appreciated so take a second and do that, thanks for the support and here's a few edits from my stash for your crates---
