The first full-length album to appear from London's future-ravers Night Slugs comes from Toronto-based Egyptrixx. A solid journey from experimental synth dronage to edgy electropop with guests from Canadian band Trust, epic neon minimal techno and the odd hi-energy dancefloor smasher. Winner.

The latest smasher to land from Modeselektor's 50 Weapons series sees Doc Daneeka's UK funky and techno hybrids meet Benjamin Damage's next level rave ethic. Woozing synths and bold funky pressure of 'Creeper' match up to the dynamic bass drama and bouncing minimalism of 'Infamous'. Big!

London's young über-talent Maya Jane Coles recently popped up on our radar with excellent classic house releases on Hypercolour and Mobilee, while as Nocturnal Sunshine she explores deep and dramatic, Burial-style dubstep terrain. Excellent!

Since creating a storm with his 'Fram/Iddy' single on Hessle Audio last year, young UK producer Blawan brings his bass explorations to the R&S headquarters. Teasing out acid elements with a primal, percussive energy and admirable bass stature he delivers three pristine and unique dancefloor slammers. Massive.

Hotly-tipped UK producer Becoming Real aka Toby Ridler releases his first EP. 'Closer' sees a grimey vibe haunting Zomby-style synth lines and r'n'b vocals over sparse beats, 'Antarctic City' adds a touch more roughed-up juke and a blindingly good Jam City remix revamps it devilishly. Mighty.

First full length album from Sven Weisemann's Desolate moniker sees him explore ambient, dubby atmospheres with a spine-tingling melancholy. While the Burial influence is clear, tracks like 'Pain' and 'Divinus' show how Desolate's sound fuses this emotion uniquely with his love of house and techno. Great.

A collaboration between Finland's Matti Turunen aka Näköradiomies and Michael Diekmann aka CRC sees them exploring distant electro worlds. Weaving freeformed structures with a Drexciyan electroid wickedness, the duo's creations have a dreamy and earnest futuristic quality. Highly recommended.

Well Rounded release this delightful EP of deep UK Funky cuts imbued with the heady euphoria of UK rave and classic Detroit and Chicago. 'Great Dark Spot' surfs thick chord stabs and tickles with its agile percussion while DJ Dom's remix of 'Sell My Soul' bounces seductively with a devilish groove. Big!
