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, UKG dons Hybrid Theory repped for Four40 Records with a bouncy and unrelenting mix of garage heat; Mumdance dug deep into the foundations of rave culture with 32 exclusive tracks for his Shared Meanings project; DJ Persuasion gave us a the latest instalment in a 15-strong mix series, chronicling late '90s jungle and D&B; Balamii's Alexis Andrews (pictured) got deeply acidic with her 4x4 selections; and, finally, Berlin outfit FJAAK ramped up the energy to unmanageable levels with a punishing techno workout.

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