| Stakes EP - Dinamoe Posted: 10 Feb 2009 12:13 PM CST Dinamoe is 23 year-old German producer who, for the last couple of years, has been baking the sort of skeletal, bleep-riden techno you could a imagine a hungry Davide Squillace or Paco Osuna devouring.

| Mr. Scruff Essential Mix Posted: 10 Feb 2009 03:22 AM CST Long time mixtape master and lover of the rare groove, Manchester's Mr. Scruff drops the week's Essential Mix on Radio 1 -- a blend of funk, soul, disco, house and more, all wrapped up in a big ol' old skool bow.
