My Nu Leng's Mix For Fabriclive

Fresh off the back of their smash collaboration with Flava D ("Soul Shake") and their work on Jammer's recent "Sun City" banger, My Nu Leng have been recruited in the latest batch of Fabriclive promo mixes. My Nu Leng have really hit their stride recently, with DJ sets and productions alike taking in more and more grime by the day. If this, and their recent Radio 1 session with Dread MC, are anything to go by, the duo could be about to secure a well-deserved place in the top-tier of grime producers.

P Jam's Mix For i-D

We're told this mix comes ahead of some impending drops on Terror Danjah's recently revived Hardrive label, though further details exist only in the ether. So, for now, let's just enjoy this mix of grime bangers—only two of which aren't P Jam productions or remixes—from one of grime's most important producers.

Sir Pixalot's 'February' Mix

Just as good as his last, if not better.

Tri3e's Mix For Sounds Of Sumo

A blinding hour here from DJ and production three-piece Tri3e. The mix features Mumdance, Addison Groove, Walton, and a few even they don't know the name of.

Drae Da Skimask's 'Rest In Peace DJ Screw' Mix

Before his tragic passing in 2000, Texan DJ Screw had built an impressive reputation for his infamous "chopped and screwed" style, notably before H-Town rap had cemented the legacy it enjoys today. These are facts clearly not lost on Astral Black's Drae Da Skimask who's put together this energetic and passionate tribute to the pioneering Houston DJ they call The Originator.

NA's Mix For Dummy

One half of NGUZUNGUZU and a quarter of Future Brown, NA brings his deep love for and vast knowledge of dancehall in all its forms.

Plastician's 'Roadworx' Mix

Unearthing for us a new sound called 'Roadworx', Plastician draws together the relaxed BPMs, spacious productions and imaginative soundscapes from a host of rising producers, Black Mags included. To give you a loose idea of how it sounds, think ambient hip-hop mixed with surreal trance, and topped off with the occasional house or techno beat.

Le1f's Mix For Boiler Room

According to NYC-based rapper/DJ/producer Khalif "Le1f" Diouf, this is "a small mix of unreleased material, collected from 2012-2016, from myself and other East Coast artists I love, specifically ones who musically exploit Banjee Realness." Banjee, if you didn't already know, is "inclusive of, but not exclusive to, homosexuality and/or performances of masculinity." But more than anything else, this is some of the most fun, riotous club music you will hear all week.
