New Music Monday

Friday Night Digger Recap: Plump DJs Time Capsule + Summer Party Hype!

B2B highlights, new Late Night Driving mixes, and a Finger Lickin' classic.

Alright, Blaze here. We got so deep into the crates during Friday Night Digger that the clock caught us out—I completely forgot the throwback vote! To make up for it, I’ve dipped into the vaults myself to pull out a definitive anthem from the Nu Skool era that still sounds like the future.

A massive shout out to Lively for having me on Music Box Radio last Thursday night. Playing B2B was an absolute blast—nothing beats sharing the decks with good people. If you missed it, keep an ear out for the archives.

For those of you looking for something a bit more chilled after the madness of the weekend, check out the new Late Night Driving mixes over on our YouTube channel. Perfect for those atmospheric journeys when you want the breaks a bit more laid back.

We’ve also got the On The Rise crew and the Queen’s Yard Summer Party coming up fast. Make sure you've got your dates locked in.

Monday Momentum — CRUNCHY CA$HEW

  • Best For: Injecting immediate energy into a Monday morning set.

Sonic Exploration — Woter

The Centerpiece — Chetty Mo

  • Track: "Back to Orlando"

  • Label: Distrokid

The Time Capsule — Plump DJs

  • Track: "Rocket Soul"

  • Label: Finger Lickin Records

  • The Vibe: My personal pick for the week—a Finger Lickin' masterclass. This track represents the pinnacle of the Nu Skool Breaks era with its massive, funked-up bassline and precision-engineered breaks. It’s an absolute rocket.

  • Best For: Bringing the ultimate heritage energy to the peak-time floor.

After Hours Prep — Sonale

  • Track: "Big Jelly Skank"

  • Label: Diesel Recordings

  • The Vibe: A deep, skanking roller perfect for the late-night hours. Sonale blends a heavy dub-influence with a crisp breakbeat to create a track that feels both weightless and incredibly powerful.

  • Best For: Preparing the room for the deep, late-night weekend journey.
