Work (St Etienne remix) - The 2 Bears - Free download! Also their album is out today too, natch.

To celebrate the release of The 2 Bears debut album 'Be Strong', they've released this remix for free.

It's cool, man.  80s sparse French House vibes with a cool British Man Like Me vocals over it.  I'm not actually an expert on sparse 80s French House, and have no idea if sparse 80s French House ever actually existed, but if it did, it probably sounds like this song.  Which is a good thing.  I suppose.

You can actually stream the whole album.  This is very cool and more publishers need to do this.  Why?  How am I supposed to judge a song worthy of download from a 15 second sound clip?  One of the main reasons I don't buy from iTunes (that, and the fact they don't tell you the bitrate of the files you're buying - but I digress.  Here's the Amazon link!).



So yeah, The 2 Bears are basically going to be huge and you'll hear them everywhere.  But you heard it here first, kids!

Lenzman live set from Fabric

Great live set from LENZMAN.  Really getting into this style of D&B... any other recommendations?

Introducing: Our Friend

Our Friend is a promising 20 year old producer from Bristol.  He's still getting to grips with his sound but an upcoming track called "Fryday Nite" is fire, so watch out for it.  Very promising though, he's got an ear for what sounds "good" - a talent one thinks you're either born with or you're not - keep it up!

CORDZ live recording from November's GET LOW Sunday Sessions...

CORDZ (NFFW) set at GET LOW Sunday Sessions @ The Lock Tavern - 27/11/11 by Get Low on Mixcloud

I Killed Kenny & Koder

 I Killed Kenny Ft. Koder - Leeches EP ***OUT NOW*** by four40records

Rating these two.  Leeches reads like a club version of "Woo Riddim" and War Paint sounds like it'd be a fixture in Diplo's sets.  Koder's got a great delivery, highly charismatic.  Remixes are meh, stick with the originals.

Tea Leaf Dancers (Murder He Wrote edit) - Flying Lotus

Neat edit of Flying Lotus.  Free download.

D-RAIL live set from GET LOW's Sunday Sessions last November

D-RAIL set at GET LOW Sunday Sessions @ The Lock Tavern - 27/11/11 by Get Low on Mixcloud

The first set upload from our last Sunday Sessions!  More to come...

BOOM! GET LOW Sunday Sessions ft. DJ DEREK & MORE!

FACEBOOK EVENT

You may have noticed from the blog header that we've got a pretty special event coming up.  With an intimate space, free entry and a roaring line-up this next event will be like that taste you got when you first mixed the juice of Rubicon with a carton of Um Bongo.  Yeah, that.

DJ DEREK

KLOSE ONE

MOXIE

TIMZED

We'll be live streaming the event through Mixlr (if everything goes smoothly).  Here's the whole recording of our last live stream where we had Elijah & Skilliam - Rinse FM Grime honchos.  We'll have the separate sets up on Mixcloud as soon as possible. 

Danny Brown - XXX

Bugged Out Weekender

Bugged Out Weekender is a fearsome electronic music festival drawing for some killer names over 3 days.  DIPLO, CLAUDE VON STOKE, GREEN VELVET, HUDSON MOHAWKE, JACKMASTER, EATS EVERYTHING, JULIO BASHMORE are Get Low's top picks - but the full line-up is still sumptuous.

The homepage is actually pretty dope as they have exclusive mixes and mini interviews with the artists like this one with Diplo.

Could Bugged Out topple the mighty Bloc?  Only time will tell, but one things for certain; it's going to be a fierce fight.

Dark0 ft. Context MC - Killing Me - Free Download!

 Dark0 feat. Context - Killing Me [FREE DOWNLOAD] by Dark0 

We've supported Context MC from day booking him for a live PA with Silkie & Commix on Freshers Week a couple of years ago.  Turns out hard work pays off, as he's on the cusp of breaking through!  MTV and BBC are backing the geez, as well as his strong grass-roots support - the only way is up.

This is a sick garage track from Dark0 with Context on the vocals.  Free download ting.

Beats In Abundance's LIVE set at Plan B, Brixton

BIA live at Get Low - Nov 2011 by Get Low on Mixcloud

This is Beats In Abundance's LIVE recording of their set at our last event at Plan B, in Brixton.  It was an absolute smasher.

Upcoming event here w/ DJ DEREK, KLOSE ONE & MOXIE - it's FREE ENTRY!
