"It blew me away...Somewhere between cinematic orchestra and dubstep -- just right!" -- Gilles Peterson

"A welcome break from the endless amount of unoriginal and formulaic music kicking around these days" --Till Late Magazine

Submotion Orchestra have rapidly built up a reputation as one of the most interesting and original projects emerging from the UK today. Drawing upon dubstep, soul, ambient electronica, jazz and dub, their unique music is at once delicate and heavy, spacious and dense, highly atmospheric but firmly rooted. Earth-shaking bass and drums combine with lush keyboard and trumpet textures to create the perfect bed for the fragile beauty of Ruby Wood's vocals, and the celestial effects of sound designer Ruckspin.

Formed in Leeds in 2009, the band quickly made a splash on the scene, with their live gigs leaving audiences open-mouthed, and their debut EP on Ranking Records drawing raves from everyone up to Radio One's Gilles Peterson, while their now-legendary weekly residency at the tiny Hukaz Bar in Leeds gave fans the unique opportunity to see the band create new material up-close and personal. Festival gigs at The Big Chill, Latitude, Outlook, Bestival and many more followed.

Now in 2012, they are ready to launch their debut album "Fragments", which contains a brilliant assortment of ambient and deep melodic bass music. They're in the mix for us now to give you a peek at what they do best.

Hailing from Moscow, LastEden (also known as Kirill Zverev) started producing in 1994 when he bought his own synthesizer, the classic EM-25. His style of up-tempo music in a frame of ambient and chill-out beats is refreshing since it's mellow but still keeps you on edge. His tracks have recently started appearing regularly on the Beatport Top 100 charts as the chill out genre is gaining more and more traction around the world.

We're at the third installment of the new chill out show. I found Great Skies when he posted on my Facebook page and was blown away. Just 20 years old, Great Skies is from London and has been shying away from the genres everyone is already making but instead takes a stab at ambient beats. Bringing in a big truckload of UKG and dub elements, Great Skies' sound is absolutely refreshing, especially considering chill out music is so often still dominated by the sound of kitchy 1990's cocktail bars, which we all hate. The intro track Drowning with vocals by Context MC is screaming for a music video to be made for, but until then, just use your imagination and let the images pop up in your head. Let me know what you think of Great Skies' mix of his own work and tell me who you'd like on the show next. Like or dislike the mix, comment and subscribe....as we're just a step away from 5,000 subscribers! Tell your friends and help me get there and I'll keep bringing you the music :) -Panda

Panda launches the second installment of his new Lounge Mix Show on YouTube with special guest Deeper Sublime.

Hailing from Germany. Deeper Sublime aka Eriq Johnson started in music in 1995. His first compositions were written for theatre plays but gained popularity at musical festivals in Berlin. Mostly working on music for television and advertisements, Eriq actually moved into dance music after 5 years at the dawn of the millenium. Performing all over Europe, Eriq established himself in the DJ circuit.

Now, what is interesting is that Eriq never chose one style over the other. While DJing, he played electro, house, techno and lounge and this continued in his productions. In 2007, he launched his own imprint Musicheads and 2008 saw the start of his lounge project Deeper Sublime. And that's what this mix is all about.

In this mix, Deeper Sublime bring us 7 of his latest tracks, remixes and exclusives in over half an hour. Leave your appreciation for him in the comments!

Panda launches the first installment of his new Lounge Mix Show on YouTube with special guest Hiatus.

Hailing from Brixton, UK with an Iranian heritage, Hiatus' musical start began when he learnt to play the piano at the age of five. At university, Hiatus played keyboard in a band called Holy Smoke and then quickly moved on, getting into dance music and actually started to DJ drum and bass - another reason for having him on the show of course ;)

Hiatus self-describes his music as a type of cinematic electronica. It has heavy ambient and chill out influences but luckily does not fall back in to the cliché sounds of lounge. In fact, most of his tracks have a rather deep melodramatic and dark atmosphere about them. Hiatus' work also has a distinct Middle Eastern tint to it and that's for a reason: he travels back to Iran every year to look for records to bring back and sample those in his music.

Last year after hearing her sing in a live show, Hiatus started working with Shura, a singer from London, who he now delivered masterpieces with such as "Fortune's Fool" and "River", both featuring in this mix and coming out on October, 10th, 2011. They are now doing live performances together and working actively on new tracks.

In this mix, Hiatus bring us 14 of his and latest tracks, remixes and exclusives in an almost 1 hour long mix. Leave your appreciation for him in the comments!

Forthcoming from Hiatus are "Fortune's Fool" featuring Shura with a Clubroot remix and a Max Cooper remix of his track "Third". His Ghost Notes LP from 2010 is available now on iTunes: http://j.mp/9Ah6Tb. Tracks 2, 5, 12 and 14 are available as free downloads from http://www.soundcloud.com/hiatus.

"Love these tracks." Bonobo

"Shura has a subtlety and peace that is absolutely magical." Jamie Woon

"With their soulful melodies and dark, bassy ambience, Hiatus and Shura are as likely candidates as any to push the post-lounge genre onwards." PRS M Magazine

"An unbroken wave of haunting electronica that allows you to forget -- albeit briefly -- that people like James Blunt actually walk the earth." The Stool Pigeon

"Cinematic hypnotica that gives you prickles on your neck and shivers down your spine." Knowledge Magazine

"Sleepy, downbeat mushroom-picking expeditions through verdant gardens of electronica." New-Noise.net
