Big ups to Shotgun Radio for making “Jade” a FREE DOWNLOAD for Life Support Machine! Marcel’s surreal vocals matched with Greco’s dynamic basslines and grooves make this track almost reminiscent of something you’d expect to hear on a New Order record. +1.

You can follow Shotgun Radio on Youtube, Facebook, Soundcloud and Twitter.

The final of three guest posts from the residents of Bass[sic] is upon us. The new London night launches on Saturday 12th November at Cornershop, in Shoreditch.

First up on a free download tip is a lovely little funk nugget by kiwi funkateer FunkFerret (clue: it is very funky). This is ideal for warming up a dancefloor or simply warming your cockles as the winter months draw in…”

In the run up to Bass[sic], a new electro-funky beats and bass night in London, we invited the residents to offer up for your entertainment, a selection of favourite free downloads and tunes that represent the sound of the event. What better way to sell it, eh? If your about Shoreditch on the 12th November, then check out the event details here.

Here, head honcho, Danny Reject gets busy with the fizzy. Check it.

“In the spirit of blogging we thought we’d highlight a couple of free tunes that are hitting the spot for us right now, plus one of our own freebies for some shameless self promotion. First up is an original track for us. On a ravey tip, this ones more than likely influenced by the amount of dancing around in fields we’ve done this summer. Our VJ, Psycho Monkey was on top form with the video…”

NSBRadio heroes, Danny Reject, Big Nick D and Hubie are launching an new Bass[sic] night on the 12th November in Shoreditch’s ‘Cornershop‘ venue. In the run up to this event, we invite each resident member of the club to share with us their guilty pleasures and provide an insight into the kind tunes to expect at the new night in our ‘What’s in the Box?!‘ series.

First up, superstar DJ Big Nick D!

“Hello Life Supporters, thanks for having me. I’m going to kick off with a fantastically sexy subtle reworking of a Radiohead tune by Mike Hulme. Mike used to be called Introspective, back when he released tunes on one of my favourite labels ever, Sinister. As Mike says himself, “It’s not a club banger or a massive in-yer-face electro house version, as I feel that would be completely disrespectful to the essence of the original track.” I couldn’t agree more, this delicate reworking of Lotus Flower is deep, throbbing, rolling and in my house, stuck on repeat. It’s free to download too. Feel the vibe.”

Radiohead – Lotus Flower [Mike Hulme Re-tweak]

“Now for something completely different. This is beatlessness in all its naked beauty. Monotonous drones and aural textures – as far from Life Support Machine’s ethos of electro funk and wonky bangers as you can get. There’s loads to download on his Soundcloud, all by a Finish fella called Jani Rantanen. It really is beautiful stuff so I recommend you make a cup of tea or roll a fat one and float away for a bit.”

Download by clicking the title below:
Jani R – On Days Like This

“Next up is this mix I have done especially for LifeSupportMachine.co.uk. It includes a couple of the tracks I’ve been talking about and I think it shows what sort of stuff I like, from ambient, to house, to wonky breaks.”

“Finally, I’m going to steer you towards a cracking track that comes out in early November. It’s an awesome combination of guilty pleasure euphoria & gnarly tearout bass. It’s the unholy combination of Lunar Shift & Chevy One and it’s coming out on my label, Big Square Records.”

Lunar Shift – Rain Drops [Chevy One Remix]

We have a treat for all the breakers out there! A bunch of kick-ass new freebies from B-Phreak. We even asked him if he’d say hi to you all and introduce the tracks himself… So hover to you Bernie…

“I got a selection of three mash-ups, including one exclusive, Lucky Amsterdamn, for the LSM free DJ music blog! This mash-up is now free for download for the first time. I’ve had many people ask me for this track, now it’s available to all through LifeSupportMachine.co.uk!”

Here’s what’s also up for grabs:

“My latest mash-up – melodic elements meets heavy basslines! House and Breaks floors tested…”

Alex Mind vs Congorock vs Diplo – Make U Disappear

“This is one of my favourites at the moment. I loved combining the percussive elements from seductive, the fat dubstep bassline from Bar 9 and the infectious vox snippets from Cheshire. This mashup just works every time I drop it in my sets!”

We invited Peo de Pitte to recommend his favourite bootleg bangers that get regularly rinsed! We tied him down and fed him Haribo Tangfastics while we rifled through his tunes and picked the CDs with the most scratches. Here’s what he had to say: “I wanted to do a tune recommendation rundown on my favourite blog, lifesupportmachine.co.uk…” (he really did say that…)

“Sometimes I think we all get a bit lost in that, everything in ones CD wallet needs to be unreleased or fresh from the shelf. This is of course one of the bad sides with the digital age of today… So I thought of recommending some free bootlegs from the last year which I still tend to reach for at my gigs, and they all do work very well! I promise!”

Will Bailey and Mikey Hook – Turn Out The Intro

“These two guys usually go very well together and this is a banger. A bit of Alan Braxe and Fred Falke together with Katy Brown. Some say it’s a bit of cheese, I say that people go crazy when they hear that whoop-whoop-whoop sound!”

Missy Elliot – Pass That Dutch [Angger Dimas Bootleg]

“This is pretty much the bootleg that put Angger Dimas on the map. I heard Style of Eye drop this at Ministry of Sound here in London last year and asked him – What the hell is this!”

DJ Falcon and Thomas Bangalter – Together [Little Bastard's Remix]

“French again and we all know the chorus of this one. Once again, this get’s the crowd going crazy!”

“Finally I thought to mention something new and interesting I stumbled upon recently. Earth Moon Earth is a Californian-based group who just stole 3 classic tracks and reworked them with some lovely sounds. Never has Ting Tings, Goldfrapp and Empire of the Sun sounded so good!”

“It’s nothing for the dance floor but I very much enjoy this sipping on a ‘cuppa’ in the sun with them playing in the background!”

Heavy D – Nuttin But Luv [Hype Jones 2011 Remix]
“I love its silly, fidgety, squelchy basslines and dramatic, funky band stabs. This track is great for getting a crowd on side with its oldskool drop out in the middle. Can’t believe it’s only had 142 odd downloads on his SoundCloud player. Hype Jones has more free downloads on his soundcloud page, so check them out too.”
