Where has the Sun gone? Need it Honolulu hot (and dry) next week for Bestival where there should be plenty of dubstepping to be done. And we don’t need to be doing any dubstepping while we’re up to our knees in mud and sloshing about in wellies and waterproofs. Bestival last year was like ‘Nam; if you weren’t there then you just don’t know!

Although Cotti isn’t due to make an appearance at Rob Da Bank’s Outer Space themed festival this year, several of his remixes and original songs should be turning up. Cotti has worked with some top dubstep artists in the last couple of years, including Rusko and Skream and he’s still only 12 years old (citation). His Sensi Dub reworking remains high on the dubstep- reggae Hall Of Fame.

Rise The Temperature has already been around for an age but has yet to see an official release. Rusko dropped it in his Essential Mix last December and it’s been on mixtapes and DJ playlists since then. The chorus is catchier than herpes!

It’s an up-tempo, tropical-holiday tune and dubstep all the way (…and one and two and THREE and four and…). It’s easy to imagine this tearing up the dancefloor with a four-to-the-floor beat – get A1 Bassline on the case. No idea if it’s an original composition or a lift from elsewhere and don’t really care.

Cotti ft. Doctor – Rise The Temperature

Special mention for the Doctor’s performance on vocals – uplifting niceness. Again no idea who the Doctor is but he also lent lyrical largeness to Cotti’s Calm Down.

Drop dubstep not bombs… or rain.
