When it comes to riotous remixes, A1 Bassline's the don. He's seen alot of blog love over the last year. And we have a couple of exclusives and a few of his older bangers you'll recognise. He just finished this wavering, wobbly Rusko bootleg alongside his buzzing, reverberating remix of the criminally underrated Ghost Frequency. His recent retouch of vocal warbler '3 Little Words' retains the delicious vocal hook, with some added bassline beef. His latest, a banging remix of The Qemists's, just saw a release on Ninja Tunes. An old favourite of mine is his heavily thuddy remix of fellow Party Shanker's 'Boots' (it appeared on this blog almost a year ago). He injects his old school, bubbly garage into Damaged Goods and Cadence Weapon, while clappy drums and pulsing bass form the backbone of his energetic 'Whomp That Sucka' remix. Unfaltering dancefloor ammo:

Pirate Soundsytem - another favourite - won the Girl Thing remix competition with this tight production:

Pick up a copy of the superb Girl Thing E.P here. And be sure to catch one of A1 Bassline's storming sets. He's playing in london on 24 January at Babycakes Party, and is playing in Germany towards the end of the month. But, truly not to be missed is his appearance at Chew The Fat at Corsica Studio alongside Fake Blood, Bird Peterson, Trevor Loveys, Foamo, Pirate Soundsystem and Pelski buddies Solid Gold & Park Ranger. Huge.
