This Australian producer was one half of the duo Riot In Belgium (who created the inescapable “La Musique” back in ’07). Now on his own and part of Kitsune’s international party posse, Beni has delivered a joyous disco cut with booming, rubber-band bass lines, strings, and squelchy intensity. Dig it! If you like the track, check out the EP.

The Body Snatchers is the name taken by the underground dance producers 30Hz and Baobinga and Feeling Good, Looking Nice, Smelling Right is the first full-length to come from these beat-possessed, freak-obsessed minds. “Call Me” is an intergalactic dose of crunked-up, electro-infused dirty breaks with Sporty-O (recently signed to Lil Jon’s label) adding in gold-chain-wearing rhymes and Yolanda (as heard with Bugz in the Attic) arriving to anchor the track to the earth with her swooning vocal hook.

Meet Sam Sparro – the new master of digital funk and atmospheric soul. The former child star and native Australian works a fair amount of magic on his self-titled debut. The track we’ve chosen this week, “Black and Gold”, is a Daft Punk-meets-Jamie Lidell bit of hiccuping electro madness. If you’ve ever worn a pair of plastic-framed Ray-bans indoors (at night, especially), this is your new favorite song.
