The XX - Crystalised (Dark Sky Remix)
More impressive xx remix business, this time from Dark Sky.
I hate UKG. It's pretty much universally awful. It almost sounds like D&B, but with all the fun and hope and joy sucked out of it. However, this is actually quite nice; old school enough to make you feel a little nostalgic, but not so 90s garage-esque as to make you want to turn it off. A fine line indeed.

The XX - Infinity (Bachelors Of Science Remix)
Okyish, inoffensive winners of 2010's Mercury Prize The xx have provided some awesome raw materials for other producers to get their teeth into. We've had Four Tet's incredible remix of VCR as premiered at this year's Bestival, and also San Francisco D&B duo Bachelors of Science reworking Infinity into a lovely deep liquid track.
Beautiful stuff, once again proving that D&B makes everything better.
