SoundCloud (while it still lives) can be an impenetrable, infinite stream of music, often of varying quality. You need a soundtrack to start your weekend right, but you don't have the requisite lifetime to trawl through the week's new DJ mixes. To help you out, we've done the busy work for you. We'll be running this series every single Friday of every single week to bring you the very finest in house, grime, techno, bashment, R&B, trap, D&B and no doubt a bunch of extremely trendy stuff that doesn't have a name yet.

This week, Brooklyn-based selector Ushka (pictured) took us on a round-the-world trip through her record bag, taking in more genres than we've ever heard in one place; Mr. Mitch filtered dancehall rhythms through a digitised, robotic lens; Tarquin took us to some pretty weird, but surprisingly club-ready, places; D-DOTS warmed us through with a selection of hip-hop, R&B, afrobeats and a whole range of hot and heavy bangers; Enei raised the tempo with a D&B mix that ranged from the melodic to the gritty; and, finally, ETCH took it that one step further with some teeth-grinding jungle, breaks, hip-hop and low-end lunacy.

This is TRENCH Radio's best mixes of the week.
