Benga & Joker - Untitled
An annoyingly fleeting little snatch of this potentially brilliant match up here, with snatches of Benga's distinctive "CLAP CLAP" snares rolling underneath a trademark Joker top-line that seems to sample Soft Cell's "Tainted Love". Intriguing indeed.

Towelie's Video Spesh
Easy all, just got back from Croatia to find some new videos out and about, thought I'd share the findings.
Newham Generals - Like It Or Not
New single from Newham Generals taken from their upcoming "Bag of Grease" EP released 4th October. Another naughty tune with a dirty bassline from the Generals, video directed by Morgan Keyz the creative director of music videos for SB.TV and also directs videos for Trapstar.
Magnetic Man ft. Katy B - Perfect Stranger
Probably one of the naughtiest collaborations of our generation, Magnetic Man are looking pretty unstoppable at the moment. After "I Need Air" reaching in at no.10 in the UK charts, the Skream-Benga-Artwork collab has brought out another classic that transcends usual boundaries making it accessible to all audiences. Definitely a fan favourite at Outlook last week with audiences kicking off as soon as they heard those opening synths.
Directed by WIZ (also worked with Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, Dizzee + Kasabian to name a few) in Romania, the video's a bit next showing everyone getting a soaking from the authorities. It's got elements similar to M.I.A's "Born Free" video which caused great controversy at the time for reasons that words can't really do justice.
As for Katy B, not much needs to be said. With tune after tune the South London Brit School graduate is destined for great things, could almost say she was on a mission... sorry, had to be done. "Tell Me" was one of my first vinyls and still destroys dancefloors wherever played; can listen to it here.
M.I.A - Born Free
Bit off topic but gotta see this kids reaction to the video, about half-way through kicks off about it
"WTF MIA? I'm disappointed in you, I liked that Paper Planes song" - too jokes.
Anyway, Magnetic Man album is released 11 October, you can pre-order it on Amazon here or HMV here.
Keep your eyes peeled to catch the liveshow on the upcoming tour. For those back in Norwich, the birthplace of Get Low, get down to the Waterfront on 26th October. Definitely not to be missed.
Perfect Stranger feat. Katy B (Benga Remix) by Magnetic Man
Shadrack And The Mandem - Guns & Pork
Found this jokes video sponsored by Boxfresh and made by Click Replay.
Check them out to see other Shadrack & Mandem shorts.
On the jokes flex, here's a Future Short, directed by Adam Smith and starring Charlie Creed-Miles.
and FINALLY, I've seen this is doing the rounds and people seem to have not seen it yet. Absolute HUUUGE tune, surprisingly from Beyoncé and Lady Gaga. TURN YOUR BASS UP.
Thats all for now, happy viewing. x

M.I.A's got a dope video, new skate series from Vice, Zinc's done a April Crack House Mix, and go cop a new track from Benga
For M.I.A's new single "Born Free" she's got Romain Gavras to to direct a 9 minute short. It's dope, well worth watching!
M.I.A, Born Free from ROMAIN-GAVRAS on Vimeo.
The cultured folk at Vice have also launched their next installment of Skate Europe, this time focusing on Denmark. It takes a look at the skate scene from the 1970s right up to the present. This is part one, and you can watch all the rest over at Vice's own video website, VBS.tv.
Zinc has also released another Crack House mix. Not to be missed, especially as it starts off with a cheeky "Tron" edit. Eurgh!

XMAS XTRAVAGANZA feat BENGA and ALIX PEREZ 11/12/08
ANDREA LESTRANGE ON THE PICTURES AGAIN
This was a great night, big thanks to all who reached. Shouts go to Benga, Alix Perez, Skandal and MC Levels and LP and Ellev8 for all smashing it equally and creating a sick vibe for the end of term. Merry Christmas and we'll see you fine people in the new year for Get Low, with some quality artists lined up...
Get Low Cartel xx
