We at newsicmoos formed a small bond with this duo after hearing a remix that was released not so long ago on the mighty Southern Fried Records. Together, Tom and Oli produce the type of electronic music that urges the feet to stomp and the head to nod; just think Dirtybird or Pets Recordings and you'll be on the right lines. Alas, we begin our journey through Manchester and inaugurate our new feature with a mix & some words from the cheeky chaps that go by the name Frogs In Socks. Get to know!

Bassy house music is on the up and raving in line to the throne is jackin' house producer Hannah Wants. Time spent amongst the crown jewels of the Dirtybird and Food Music imprints, this rising producer/dj star recently dropped EP 'Dappy' with long time collaborator Chris Lorenzo and has landed mixes for the BBC through B Traits and Cameo as well as  recent podcast for DJ Mag. Big stuff. We catch some words to see exactly what Hannah wants. Get to know!

The latest in our mix series is by a young producer from Poland whose production we came across via a recent and rather very excellent Addison Groove mix for Dazed Digital. Be prepared for some juke inspired beats, with a wholesome splash of soulfulness.. Get to know!

Apollonia is the name for allies Shonky, Dan Ghanacia and Dyed Soundorom who officially formed back in 2012, though their history surpasses a decade. The group are set to showcase their back2back2back sets all over the world this summer, including at our partner festival Exit in Serbia. So with that, we grabbed a quick 5 minutes with them.. 

Brighton-based producer Shiver (real name Tom Haddad) is tipped for big things in the DnB world. We had the chance to catch up with him to talk about his latest release on Protect Audio, his musical inspirations and what sets his live sets apart from the rest.
