Katy B - Katy On A Mission / Louder - Out Monday 22nd August [VIDEO]

Dubstep from Katy B, Benga and Zinc with Katy on a Mission / Louder

Dubstep is on a full blown commercial flex nowadays. Hot on the heels of the success of Magnetic Man - I Need Air we have the next release vying for chart success from vocalist Katy B.

Katy is dropping a dubstep / crack house double on us with the release of her latest single Katy on a Mission.

Dubstep afro enthusiast Benga steps up to let Katy vocal what was his original underground hit Man on a Mission and I have to say it's hypnotically phat.

B-Side badness is supplied by DnB-cum-breakstep-cum-crack house reinventor DJ Zinc, who lays down the production on Louder.

These tunes have been doing the rounds for months now, but this release is such a banger that SnF wants to support it and say BUY THIS SINGLE ON MONDAY!

See the videos for Katy on a Mission and Louder inside!

Forthcoming: Mr M - Dash Down

UK Funky from MR M with Dash Down

UK Funky is a strange beast. Girls seem to love dancing to songs about them being abused. Happy days eh?

The next funky anthem telling you to dash a gash is Mr M - Dash Down, and this one even got our head bopping at SnF Towers.

Mr M is going one step further than other UKF soldiers such as Funkee Dee who has now asked 2 million people on YouTube "Are you gonna bang thou?"

M is about getting in and dashing down with no "wifey business". Who's asking? He's doing!

Crude you may say? So what. I test you not to bop your head to the video below.

Dash Down is on the BBC Radio 1Xtra B Playlist and is currently MistaJam's "Jam Hot Record of The Week."

Preview - Nubian Knightz - Everyday feat Jahilsoul [with remixes from Atomic & Rachel Ellektra]

UK Garage from Nubian Knightz with Everyday

Nubian Knightz are back with there second UK garage single Everyday.

Following on from their single from the end of last year Lovin', Everyday is a bassy thumper with soulful vocals from Jahilsoul.

Nubian Knights are working to ethos that you make "music you can feel rather than music you can place" and say their mantra is ‘It’s More Than Music, It’s Soul Stirring.’

Hopefully Everyday will get your rump shaking to the catchy bassline, and if that ain't your bag then maybe Atomic's 2-stepper mix or Rachel Ellektra's sunset electro mix might be up your street.

Everyday will be out in all good download stores from 20th August 2010.
