We already knew about the wonderment that is the touch of Chase & Status. Their incredible remix of 'Death' by White Lies is one of the tracks of the year for me while their production on 'End Credits' by Plan B has deservedly earned them some serious chart action. But this remix stands out because it sounds like nothing else I can think of just at the moment.

It's dubstep, with that typical 70/140bpm kick that seems to drag a little, but is in actual fact completely sucking you in. But it's also rammed full of enormous guitar riffage and, unlike any dubstep record of note, could be performed live very easily by a four-piece rock act. 

It actually sounds a bit like Pendulum if they had a lady take to the mic before just chilling out for five bleedin' minutes to let the beats breathe a tiny bit. It's something they should consider.

The original is pretty good as well and has made me want to find out more about Nneka - a Nigerian/German MC who has toured with Gnarls Barkley (apparently). Maybe I should have known all about her before now, but ya can't win 'em all. An initial snoop about her myspace reveals a pretty impressive collection of Roots-esque, soulful hip hop. That's the next hour or two sorted, then...

NB - credit to a friend of mine for the tip-off on this tune - she knows who she is!!
