In honor of the Hallmark holiday, we had to bring you a roundup of (relatively recent) lovers tunes today (and check out last year’s V-Day post for some more bedroom heat). No long talking! It’s dutty love time.

It is the end of year that ends in ’10, so you can forgive us if we go Toppa Top 10 mad and just post Top 10s from now til 2011. In that spirit, we have wukked up a list of the biggest, baddest, maddest, massest, muddiest soca jams of 2010…and in the Carnival spirit of too much is better, we let it run to 11!

Good morning! In case you hadn’t noticed, Natalie Storm has been killing it this week, taking North America by um, you know. Last Friday she and fellow badda gal Tifa shared the stage with stole the spotlight from Ricky Blaze and Mr. Lexx at the Federation Sound’s release party for the Max Glazer Scion EP. Monday she hosted Rice & Peas and tonight we splash out at Brand New Machine for the launch of her own Federation project Songs 2 F@#k and Fight 2 (flyer after the jump), followed by scheduled appearances at the hippest parties on both coasts (Flashing Lights and Tormenta Tropical, respectively). But somehow in the middle of that she found time to squeeze off a thousand bpms of soca music just to keep her island-girl credentials intact. Wake up to wuk up!

We can, however, beam out a few liters of premium-blend reggae, dancehall, soca, dubstep and champeta which will have a similar effect on your sluggish monday-morning metabolism. When it hit you, I’m told, you feel no pain…and it’s even said (by Jahdan) that it “nice like a coffee whey in a ther-mos!” Music we a talk bout, the free kind and there’s a lot of it, so let’s get started or you’ll still be downloading next monday:

HELLO UNIVERSE! Yeah, so (this one time) we’ve been a bit late on the draw but…big things have been brewing down in Jamaica recently and it has to be spoke about: Wiley voiced the big chune “It’s Wiley” on the Showa Eski riddim, produced by my bredrin Prodigal (aka Dylan Powe of Passa Passa/Swatch International). The full run includes tunes from Natalie Storm, Lady Chann, Einstein, Rage and Ward 21; the tracks are really good at bridging the gap between bashment and dancehall, and they’ve been getting nuff forwards out here in Inglan. Listen below and then go cop em for yourself over at Juno. Or just give me a shout I’M GIVIN OUT ZIP FILES LIKE A VIRUS! – Jilli
