Hottest In America

Unfortunately, there is a slight delay for us vinyl enthusiasts to get our hands on the increasingly spectacular Night Slugs EPs on beloved wax, but this week just as the latest EP from Velour has digitally dropped, the previous 'That Mystic EP' by Kingdom has made its way to 12". A must buy for me, but to push this to the rest of you, the Night Slugs fam are giving away this brand new dub from Kingdom. 'The Velvet Collection' by Velour is out now on Night Slugs and available to download now, and be sure to grab Kingdom's 'That Mystic EP' available on 12" now from Juno or Boomkat.

That Mystic

Night Slugs have superbly stepped things up this July with not one but two cracking EPs. First off, L-Vis 1990's anthemic 'Forever You' unexpectedly (for me at least!) popped up from nowhere earlier in the month and this week sees Kingdom's debut for the family, as 'That Mystic EP' drops with a big hype filled bang. This EP will certainly please fans of the label, with Kingdom's own NYC style of bass highly complimenting the renowned Night Slugs catalog of releases, feeling right home on this side of the Atlantic. As a free download we have this classic Kingdom refix, which I'll let Night Slugs boss Bok Bok describe; 'Kingdom applies his signature formula, splicing the intro bars into a full new track, refixing it with a diva vocal, extra synths and, bass pulses etc'. 'That Mystic EP' by Kingdom is out now on Night Slugs and available from Boomkat and Juno.

Mindreader (CFCF Remix)

Yes 'Mindreader' has already been covered on the blog, but a release this big deserves a bit more, especially when it brings even more remixes to the table.

Mindreader

Probably the most sought after track of 2009, Kingdom's 'Mindreader' has finally seen the light of day this week thanks to Fool's Gold. This cropped up in so many high class mixtapes last year, generating all the hype and anticipation it deserves and its done remarkably well to stay out of the hands of bloggers and mp3 scavengers alike by today's standards. Its no secret that this release also brings forth some serious remix power to the equation with house and garage icon Todd Edwards providing a remix and dub and both Night Slugs, Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990 providing their own mixes. This fantastic release by Kingdom is also getting backed by Acephale Records who are releasing a very limited 10" including the awesome B side 'You'. Kingdom is in town for Fool's Gold's Fabric Takeover this week and 'Mindreader' by Kingdom is out now on Fool's Gold and available to download now on iTunes, Beatport, Turntable Lab and all other digi-distributors.
