Listen to Jamie Jone’s ‘Timewarp Mix 11’

It's been a while since we've posted a mix. However, it was only right to share the new 'Timewarp Mix 11' by Jamie Jones. The selection is a good two hours long with a slew of incredible house tunes in the set. Whether you're struggling at work or getting ready to go out on a weekend, this will do you justice. You can stream the mix below.

ColoRising Mixes 25: Dream Nails

Punk will never die...the authentic punk that is, especially when bands like London's Dream Nails exist. The group's music is like an awakening alarm of urgency speaking out against the ills of society with a sonic rage as the palette. Appropriately titling their debut EP 'DIY', that spirit runs deep in the four members as they even released a zine to coincide with the record. Their sound is loud, fast and hits with a punch like an uppercut to the face. Singing messages of empowerment, the self-proclaimed 'feminist punk witches from hell' are as core as they come, raw and uncut, and you can best believe they are utterly proud of it.

ColoRising Mixes 24: Raindear

The gap between Sweden and the rest of the world in terms of pop music is getting wider by the day. Whilst it feels as if the country pumps out acts whose weekly, stadium-style pop chants dominate the landscape, there is something different about singer Rebecca Bergcrantz better known as Raindear. With a voice that cuts through the noise, there is a bold confidence in her delivery as her musical production incorporates huskier electro rhythms into the mix.

ColoRising Mixes 23: Maja Skillz

Mari Nordén aka Maja Skillz can be classified into many categories but at the end of the day, she is an all-around creative. The Olso-based singer, producer, artist and designer, who has morphed the sound of pop, electronica, trap and more, is creating truly exciting and brilliant music. Having been a part of the band Shy For Shore, her latest project finds her experimenting with vocal styles and textures like brush strokes on the palette, forming vivid pieces of fine art. The latest Maja Skillz release ‘FALL APRT’, is a documentation of a relationship gone awry, yet musically decorated with beautiful sonics of alt-pop, lush and rich. Expect a tidal wave of artistry in 2016 from the Norwegian mastermind.

ColoRising Mixes 19: Conrad Kira

To say that Conrad Kira represents the musical diversity that continues to bubble throughout England wouldn't quite do the emcee full justice. In fact, the South Londoner operates more from a global perspective incorporating styles ranging from grime to electro, all the way to Japanese pop. It can be safe to say that Kira is far from a follower, but rather an artist who chooses to paint on a bigger palette than many.

ColoRising Mixes 18: Thus Owls

Comprised of Swedish-Canadian couple Simon and Erika Angell, Montreal-based Thus Owls are one of the most exciting bands in music today. Skillfully crafting rhythms that blend alt-rock, post-classical, punk, noise, folk, jazz and pop, all meshed into their distinct and cinematic sound, Thus Owls' recordings are like pieces of art that jump straight off of the canvas, landing directly into your psyche.
