Happy Canada Day! Here on the west coast, the beaches are going to be packed with sun-seekers celebrating our national day. With beaches in mind, here’s a warm and mellow deep-house track by Brazilian DJ/producer FELIPPE SENNE and Columbian composer/producer GUX JIMENEZ. This one should serve equally well whether you’re sprawled out in the sand [...]
Montréal duo NUJAX (KID LEGIT and GIRL PROBLEMS) have been tearing up dancefloors in la belle province with their SEXTAPE FRIDAYS weekly. Currently working on their first EP, these fine lads have offered up a couple of tracks for your aural pleasure. The remix of MAJOR LAZER’s “Zumbi” intertwines ragga vocals with a grinding synth [...]
This track starts out innocently enough with a cavernous kickdrum and thick handclaps but even so, from the first beat ZODIAC CARTEL’s remix of “L.E.S. Artistes” might blast away those with a low tolerance for thunder and boom. What was once a club track is mutated with deep sonic radiation that change the face of [...]
Two different numbers here courtesy of 21:12 (aka LINUS LOVES). He sent more work from BURNS who has to have some of the highest output of any producer / remixer / dj in 2009.The first is a track you probably already know – definitive robotdisco in the likes of Burns’ latest single, extended for your [...]
Mixes don’t normally appear on these pages simply because there are too many individual tunes and remixes to post. That and everyone and their dog has a mix to flog. Seriously. Here’s one exception, only because PRETTY GIRLS & LASERS have some bootleg of “Heat It Up” by WEE PAPA GIRL RAPPERS that I’ve never [...]
Mikey and Beans comprise the Las Vegas based AFGHAN RAIDERS. Their latest offerings deliver haunting vocal harmonies over driving basslines and solid synth hooks. Check them out on tour this July if you’re on the west coast.MP3: Afghan Raiders – Admiral’s DoorbellMP3: Afghan Raiders – Morphine Dream
ALGERONICS have done right with his “Windowlicker” bootleg. The 18-year-old Californian keeps enough of the original for the purists but filters, tweaks and stutters the house-inspired reconstruction, making the the tune a bit more dancefloor friendly.MP3: Aphex Twin – Windowlicker (Algeronics remix)Also worthy of your attention is his redux of OH SHIT!’s hedonistic anthem.MP3: Oh [...]
Let’s jump-start the weekend with a bouncin’ ragga track courtesy of N.A.S.A. and featuring AMANDA BLANK, SIZZLA and LOVEFOXXX.LOGAN delivers a stylishly ultraviolent video, incorporating characters and artwork from THE DATE FARMERS. It’s a double-cross gone wrong in an isometric barrio, complete with guns and bombs, knives and helicopters, cocaine and mouse-ears.
Music has lost some flavour since the passing of Michael Jackson. Listening to Thriller makes me smile, but everything else just seems so bland. Not comparing the two, but LOUD PARTY sent us this remix of Teenage Blitz by A GIRL AND A GUN. The remix is sugary enough to catch my attention, which says [...]
I’ll admit I’ve got a thing for Japan. It’s quirky future-pop culture mashed with thick layers of tradition makes one of the most fascinating places on earth (not to mention POCKY!). Hailing from Tokyo, FRAP FRAP FRAP bring a new dimension to current 80’s electronic disco-rock mindsets. It’s a playful seriousness that’s hard to reproduce [...]
SNEAKY SOUND SYSTEM are finishing the last leg of their North American Tour. The Australian trio play at Webster Hall tomorrow and if you’re lucky, Manalogue has a pair of guest lists spots with back stage passes for the show. Honestly, if I was in NYC I’d make up a fake name just to see this [...]
It’s Theo Keating! Oh, wait…you already knew that…Hailing from London UK, This man’s tasty remixes and hot tracks are popping up like daisies. From Mars (the catchiest song of 2K8), to the ever growing string of remixes with his signature vocal splicing techniques making us all want to scream it loud and clear…FAKE BLOOD [...]
Sometimes political-correctness has to be tossed out the door to make room for thunder and bass. Former bloggers, ACID GIRLS, and one of the UK’s heavy-hitters, HOSTAGE, bring back the electro woohoo in their remixes for 3OH!3. The full single for “Don’t Trust Me” is out in the UK on July 6 and I’m guessing [...]
This track from 1980 RECORDINGS is a bit like velcro shoes – so easy to put on. You be the judge, then grab the rest of the FILIP LE FRICK’s single from beatport.MP3: Filip Le Frick – Tweak (Trim The Fat remix)
There’s a bit of an old-timey feel to these cuts from DEXTER. They keep things pretty simple with house and techno interpretations. The first track, “Eye NVU” knocks out a groove set for early mornings at a carnival. “Wasteland,” the second track provided is the standout in my opinion with it’s dubbed house flavour, while [...]
You know how some people djs keep playing the same tunes over and over again, everytime you seem them? It’s like that a lot here anyway. I guess it’s cuz they like the tracks so much that they want you to share the love for the artists of yesterday. What I’m trying to say is, [...]
MIKE OKAY’s second release comes at you hot as ever, ready to set fires on dancefloors here, there and everywhere. Heavy pyro support comes from Zero Cash and Audioguns with their frictional remixes. Check out the teaser below, then grab the 320s from beatport.MP3: Mike Okay – Masturbo (teaser)As a bonus, WHAT! WHAT! RECORDS sent [...]
Here’s some more wobble bootlegs to keep your day in perpetual motion.MP3: Mylo – In My Arms (Bass Weazal’s Carnival remix)MP3: Arctic Monkeys – When the Sun Goes Down (Bass Weazal Boom Shaker remix)MP3: MGMT – Time to Pretend (Bass Weazal’s Anthem mix)MP3: Bloc Party – Banquet (Bass Weazal’s Last Tune remix)MP3: Will Bailey and [...]
I ♥ bassline house. AC SLATER works his magic with the latest BEAT ASSASSINS single. To be expected, there’s a bit of dub & reggae toasting in this rumbling low-end club jam. Seriously, doesn’t anybody else think the revival of dance music basics (speed garage and breaks) is strange? I imagine it wouldn’t seem that [...]
Chew Fu was in town last night and the opening dj, Hollywood Hype, played club track after club track after club track. It was a bit strange hearing an entire set of top 40 remixes. Well, here’s another courtesy of DIRTYBEATS from Tijuana, Mexico.MP3: Boney M – Daddy Cool (DirtyBeats remix)
