Blonde - Highlights Vol. 006

I came across this mix over the weekend, and Blonde has yet to disappoint me with any of their productions or mixes - and their most recent installment of the aptly named Highlights mix series is no exception. There is some great new material in here (remixes from the likes of The Magician and TCTS), mixed in with a sprinkling of classics (Cassius' 99 anyone?). If you're looking for some house music with some energy and funk to get your week started, look no further.

TCTS - Coupe De Ville

TCTS brings an interesting flavour to Deep House by incorporating an 80's hip hop vibe overtop of a deep, vibey instrumental. Coupe De Ville features a nice balance of chilled energy - the vibes feel just as good hitting you in the morning, afternoon or evening.  The vocal is laid down by Aniff Akinola, an addition that really seems to complete the track.

"It's easy to love when you ain't got bills to pay". Truly words we can all relate to.  Check out the track below, and watch for TCTS's Body EP dropping March 30th on Chase & Status' label MTA Records.
