These are almost certainly the Best New Mixes Streaming Right Now.

2. Lone: Solid Steel Radio Show Mix

Coinciding with the very recent release of Lone's sixth album Levitate on R&S, the producer/DJ shared some words to accompany his hypnotizing array of tunes for Ninja Tune's reliably solid radio show.

"I wanted to put together a club friendly mix for Solid Steel, something containing a bunch of the sort of tunes I'm playing out at the moment. Having said that, I didn't want to go completely one way like that, so I tried to put something together that could work just as easily as a home listening mix - it was fun trying to bridge that gap. I also saw this as a good excuse to showcase a bunch of forthcoming material from our MagicWire label, so there's quite a few exclusives here... even some stuff I'm working on under a different name."

3. SIROJ: Bromance Records Label Night Mixtape

Ahead of the Bromance Label Night in Amsterdam last week, Dutch producer SIROJ served up some of his signature house and an idea of what one could've expected from the night, which also featured Brodinski and Sam Tiba on the line-up.

4. Oneman: 400th Show for Rinse FM (4-hour Special)

Fair play to Oneman for stepping to the plate at Rinse FM and playing 399 sets prior to this one, his 400th show for the London-based station.

What other logical way would there be him to celebrate than to record a bumper edition of the show? Running at four hours, featuring drop-ins from Bok Bok, Benton, Flirta D, Plastician, Scratcha DVA, and naturally lots of garage, grime, hip-hop and general bass-heaviness, this one is a banger.

5. The Range: RA.521 Mix for Resident Advisor

Recorded live in New York and subsequently shared by Resident Advisor last week, this mix by The Range serves as both a showcase and a sort of segue for his last two albums. As he explains:

"I recorded this on CDJs in my apartment in Brooklyn. I labored over this one to get it right as there are a lot of new songs that haven't been heard before, and I really hadn't considered how they might fit in a set prior to working on this mix. The idea behind this was to bring together music from my past two albums, earlier work from prior to those and new songs that I have been finishing more recently. It was interesting to show how I'm thinking about some of the newer songs by placing them against material with which I've spent a lot more time."

Sounds to us like he's on the right track(s).

6. Girl Unit: Radar Radio Mix

He's no stranger to this list so we won't go on about how Girl Unit is well good at this DJing lark, but suffice to say he back to business for the guys at Radar Radio and has once again given us good reason for his inclusion. A two-hour trip through club-ready cuts, deep club classics and post-club anthems all the same. Salute, Girl Unit. No doubt we'll be seeing his handywork again soon.

7. TRP: 100% Unreleased TRP Mix for Lobster Theremin

Most of the mixes we feature are made up of others' songs, so when we come across a mix that's comprised of unreleased original productions and it isn't terrible, we take notice. Tagged on Soundcloud as '100% Slammers,' this clutch of jams from Lobster Theremin affiliate is, at the very least, 100% decent.

8. The Argus Effect: Flatbax For 20

For all intents and purposes, we picked up this mix whilst stumbling drunkenly through a neon-lit alley late one night, and somehow found it in our pocket the morning after. All complete lies of course, but with little info on this mix from The Argus Effect and plenty of dirty, dirty disco instead, we prefer our fictitious account of events in relation to the provenance of this mix rather than the boring truth of having found it on Soundcloud.

9. Bok Bok: ESSENTIALS Vol. 2

Having also featured on Oneman's 400th this week, Bok Bok isn't doing too bad for himself at the moment. The second of his own personal 'ESSENTIALS' series sees the label-boss and producer selecting, we suspect, tracks he sees as essentials. Hip-hop, house, grime, you name it... Just a shame it doesn't run longer for much more than half an hour!

10. Doctor Jeep & Star Eyes: Jungle Daze Mix

As Croatia's Outlook festival broadens it's horizons to open their New York chapter, the first transatlantic event took place in Brooklyn last week and with it they brought down Mungo's Hi-Fi, Ranking Joe, Doctor Jeep & Star Eyes, and more. The latter two made a mix jammed full of jungle that definitely does justice to the sort of music one can expect if planning to go Outlook this summer.

11. Spaceghost: Late Feelings Mix #10

If your heart is set on finding the most laidback and sedate mix on this list, may we suggest you give Spaceghost's latest a spin? Stocked with a slew of Brazilian slow jams, bossa nova, and breathtaking orchestral sections, this is the mix you watch the sun go down to for sure.

Bonus: That Gal Costa track.
