FREEBIES
This one is courtesy of the Chrome Kids who got sent this by Toddla T. It's first single being released on the Girl Music label that he has set up with Raf Rundell. The vocal are quite eerie and at first I didnt really like the song but its has grown on me very quickly...maybe because of its hypnotic quality??
T Willy - Come And Play (Skreamix) HERE
This next one is strictly eyes down bizness. Its been getting plays from the likes of Mary Anne Hobbs and Zane Lowe. Both coming out of Germany it seems like they are match made in heaven. This is another eerie one with ticking clocks, cymbals and chilling vocals to top it off. Scuba has done very well with this one so cop it while its hot!

ABOUT TO BLOW : DOCTOR P
Doctor P is a producer getting a lot of attention in the tearout scene at the minute. His 2 biggest tunes to date 'Sweet Shop' and 'Badman Sound' are currently being repped hard by Caspa, Skream, Benga and Rusko so this dude must be doing something right!
What releases do you have forthcoming? Badman Sound is coming out on Dub Police isn't it?
Forthcoming releases are:
'Badman Sound' on Dub Police, haven't got a date yet though! It should be early next year. 'Stinkfinger' with Flux Pavilion (next release on XSDubz). On Circus 004 is 'Sweet Shop/Gargoyle', promo on 14th December, with full release in the New Year! I also have a couple of remixes in the pipeline for a couple of labels, so keep your eye out for them!
Are you gonna be working exclusively with Dub Police from now on?
I want to concentrate my efforts on Circus to build it up as something on par with Dub Police and hopefully all the other top dogs.
I know you're tight with another Dub Police wonderkid Trolley Snatcha. How did you guys first link up? Have you got any collaborations together coming up?
Me and Trolley have known each other since we were about 10 years old. Trolley and Flux Pavilion have known each other even longer than that! We have all been doing music together for as long as I can remember, along with Flux's brother DJ Amadeus (check out amadeus's track 'Turkish Delight' comin on Circus soon!)
Me and Trolley have made a few tunes together, but they're all floating at the moment!
You're co-owner of Circus Records as well, what releases are forthcoming on your label?
Brown + Gammon's 'Painkillers', along with Switchdubs 'Back With A Vengeance' are soon to drop on circus 002! After that we've got Flux P's 'Voscillate'/'Night Goes On'. Swiftly followed by my 'Sweet Shop/Gargoyle' release! after that we've got a 12" from Funtcase and we're talkinG with Datsik and Cookie Monsta too! (not to mention remixes from Giant and Trolley Snatcha on the way!) We're also doing some exclusively digital releases; our first digital EP is out 30th November, featuring Flux Pavilion, Amadeus, Brown & Gammon and myself.
Our aim with the label is to build up a name known for doing unusual, but still highly accessible music. And trying to keep monotonous wobble to a minimum
Top 5 tunes at the minute?
Sweet Shop!!
Funtcase - So Vexed
Cookie Monsta - Fat Girl Rodeo
Flux Pavilion - Meathead
Stenchman - Just A Girl
Your favourite producers around at the moment? Anyone you really want to get in the studio with?
16 bit are totally killin, it with their production, there's nothin like it! I think 16bit + Doctor P could equal danger!
Any producers to look out for next year? Anyone who is really gonna blow up?
I think cookie monsta is gonna hit somethin big pretty soon! He's already an online legend and he hasn't even had a vinyl release yet! Borgore's definitely one to watch out for too; he's doinG something totally unique in the dubstep world.
What does 2010 hold for you?
Over the last few months of 2009 I seem to have catapulted into the dubstep scene with only a handful of tracks under my belt, I only hope that I'll continue to rise over the next year at the same speed!
Doctor P also found the time to do an exclusive mix for us as well which you can download below:

INTRODUCING : SRC
SRC is one of Birmingham's leading grime producers. Since around 2003 he has been creating tracks and releasing downloadable promos via the Internet.
He has also worked with a Range of MCs & Artists, including Vader,DEVelpoment, Badness, Black The Ripper and Untitled, to name but a few.
With recent support from Rinse FM's Elijah & Skilliam, DJ Oneman and a host more others he is now preparing to release tracks via digital distribution & vinyl.
I heard his remix of the LL Cool J - Hey Lover Instrumental on Starkey's Seclusiasis radio show and was like 'oh shit need to get in touch with this guy!' It should be coming out next year serious Sexstep vibes on it, if you've heard the original then you'll know! LL if you read this then how 'bout some new bars over it!
This mix is full of Mario vocal samples some of which caused an argument over the weekend because as I correctly stated there is no Mario Kart character called Dino! Anyways the mix is 17 mins long so download it and let us know what you think! More importantly if you do like it hit up SRC on myspace and let him know yourself! Definitely one to watch for the future so make sure you keep on checkin up on him!

WHAT DID YOU SAY?
INTRODUCING : KiGma
I was floating around the net and happened to stumble across this guy and I'm glad I did because his production is pretty nice! He's a 24 year old architect coming out of Bordeaux and has been producing for 3 years. Like many, he's a dnb man gone dub. His reason for doing so is from listening to the likes of Plastician, Skream & Distance 4 years ago. In his own words (through free translation) he makes this music because its more than listening to it, its feeling the bass! Check him out and let him and us know what you think!

MODERAT
Moderat consists of Apparat and Modeselektor and my my my don't the three of them make an incredible team! I only found out about this collaboration on Friday and I feel like I've had my head stuck my arse for not knowing about this!
They formed way back in 2002 when the three of them recorded an EP for record label BPitch Control and then were on hiatus. They finally joined up again 6 yeras later to work on the album and thank God they did!
The lead single on the album 'Rusty Nails' has been remixed by heavyweights such as Booka Shade and Shackleton. Seamonkey another track from the album was remixed by man of the minute - Untold. The self entitled album was released April 2009 and the stand out track for me is the bass heavy 'No.22' which in my eyes is perfect combination of techno and dubstep.

STELLA SESSIONS ARE BACK
Skream's Stella Sessions are back after a few months absence. The mixes are sicker than ever taking in so many different styles, including tunes from Consequence, dBridge, Instra:mental, Doctor P and Joker.
The Art Of Hosting : C Strike Z & Koast
Strikez, who changed his name from Crimez after some MPs reaction to it when introduced for a performance, began MCing to garage through listening to pirate radio in London, before getting into hip hop when he moved to Morcambe (who says nothing good comes out of Morcambe?!). Koast is another garage kid turned rapper who began MCing in his teens back in London, but says things only got serious after moving to Bristol and meeting all the heads here. They both got into dubstep in around 2006 and saw it as the perfect sound to fit the vibe they were on - proper hip hop song writing but over faster, more interesting production.
They're both long-time Shit The Bed & Penguin Dance residents, but you can also catch Koast on the regular at the likes of HENCH & Shoestring, whilst Strikez can count Crazylegs, Weapon of Choice & Chip In amongst his residencies. Over the last couple of years they have MCed for the likes of Skream, Benga, Plastician & N-Type as well as the local names such as Joker, Gemmy, Komonazmuk & Chasing Shadows. When not on stage in clubs such as Motion, Thekla & Lab, these lot are always writing!
Their favourite host outside the immediate Spillz crew is Dread MC who they say "has the perfect balance between spittin and gettin the crowd hyped." Message from Koast & Strikez - to all shit MCs and 'mic cats': "stop spitting 100 bars of breeze and ruining raves!". As they put it so well, people in dubstep pay to see the DJs not the MCs, you're there to work with the DJ not against him or her! On a more health conscious note, they say "STOP DOING KETAMINE!" Why pay for a rave and then end up too messy to even know what's going on?!
If you ever hear "what you know about, what you know about," shouted in a rave and you didn't know before, now you do!!! Big up to Koast and Strikez who have welcomed me in Bristol!!!! Watch out for more coming from the Central Spillz crew in the next few weeks!
Shout outs to the whole of Spillz! H.E.N.C.H, Shit The Bed, The Blast, Shoestring, Byte (R.I.P), Penguin Dance, Bristol crew, London crew, North West Crew, and everyone else who ever supported!
Bonus:
