Feeling a bit more motivated with new tunes again so here's some good ones I've found on my travels -
Feel like Begala the first track on here belongs in this thread. The other tunes all have different kinds of beats but it's a consistently strong EP right through. Good to be able to finally get hold of some tunes by Brey, it's out on Monday (as is Major Notes latest EP Ashanti Burial).
Then there's The Crypt EP by Gorgon City (thanks to Tim F for the heads-up on this one):

The title track has Rubi Dan & Navigator on it and is some serious ragga-funky vibes. Last tune The Truth is also pretty cool once it gets going.
(Flicking through the juno pages for Black Butter, the label who put this out, and it seems they have quite a few decent releases I've slept on, dunno why I've not paid attention to the label before).
Also thought the title track on this was very strong:

Kind of like a beefed-up version of their tune Pantha from last year. Mista Men are good at doing the whole chunky rolling beats thing.
