We got some good stuff.

Breakdown – Party Shocker (Lazy Ants Remix) (the most interesting of the “Party Shocker” bunch)
Edu K – Flutesnoot (I like Edu K, he seems like a nice guy)
Edu K – Flutesnoot (Brodinski’s B-Live Mix) (Brodinski is pretty tight)
Paul Anthony – God Loves Thugs (Le Principle Remake) (it’s Le Principle, so obviously…)
SebastiAn – H.A.L. (I came across this oldie via this A-Trak video)
We Have Band – Honey Trap (Def Starr Remix) (pretty chill, pretty enjoyable)

Last Dance (Kap10kurt Remix)

Découverte, Musique Par: Z No Comments »

This is just one of those combinations that I never would have that of, but I’m so glad someone did.

It’s 1901. Still.

I’m happy to see someone keeping this track alive. I needed one more reason to keep listening to it. Memory Tapes is very rapidly gaining a reputation for putting out unpredictable remixes that rarely hit below the expected greatness. His new remix of Phoenix’s “1901″ is as out there as anything he’s done, and for some reason I feel it is best described as a very unbalanced sound. In a good way. Check it out.
Bonus:
Phoenix recently covered Bob Dylan’s “Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands” during a recording for a German magazine. It’s cool to see them playing something with such a stripped down acoustic sound.

Wilson from Boy Kings recently invited both Black Holes and I to join him in hosting an episode of BKTV with up and coming, Chicago-based dance act Gemini Club. For those of you who may not be familiar with Gemini Club, I highly recommend keeping them on your radar because these guys have potential to dominate the dance scene. Not only does the trio have the talent to compose catchy, electro pop tunes, but they also have the live show to back it up, which, in my opinion, is very important.

I’ve had the chance of working with Boy Kings before on previous BKTV’s and I’m going to go out and say that this newest episode featuring the act is the best that’s yet to come. I mean, you get to witness the genuine expression on Black Holes’ face as he pops his first bottle of champagne! It really doesn’t get much better than that. I have the pleasure of sharing the stage with Gemini Club this Saturday as we both support DFA heavy hitters Hercules & Love Affair at The Abbey Pub, so be sure to catch their set!

Disco Demons Exclusive: A.G.Trio

Découverte, Musique Par: Jakob No Comments »

I’m proud to announce the exclusive world premiere of the A.G.Trio‘s latest release on Etage Noir Special Recordings, which will be hitting all major online record stores, including iTunes, later today: Along with the EP, they decided to give away a free remix by German electro heavyweights Ultrnx.

Dancen EP by Austria’s current number one electro exports is every sane DJ’s wet dream, consisting of two tracks, an instrumental and said remix, a serious DJ weapon to watch out for. Kudos to Ultrnx for releasing this distorted, nasty bass monster from it’s cage. Grab it exclusively in it’s full 320kbps glory on Disco Demons:

Wine That Rump

Découverte, Musique Par: markuslol No Comments »

Naughty, Norwegian DJ duo So Shifty have finally dropped their first EP on Crossfaded Bacon. If you’ve heard their remixes then you already know that they make clubbed-up, tropical-flavored electro. One of my favorite tracks to play live is their bootleg remix of R. Kelly + Kerry Hilson’s “Number One” and their Ska remix of Major Lazer’s “Keep It Goin’ Louder” makes me feel like a 12 year old boy every time I hear it (both available below). Party tracks aside, on their debut EP they definitely crank it up notch.

The ingeniously titled Wine Touch Clap EP, accompanied by some scandalous album art, has a bit of vocal flavor from several dancehall artists, giving their sound even more of a tropical island feel. They’ve also got Douster, Emynd, Them Jeans, and Top Billin’ on remix duty, so head to iTunes, Juno, and Turntable Lab to pick it up and start Carnivàle a little early this year.

Major Lazer – Keep It Goin’ Louder (So Shifty 1961 SKA Remix)
R. Kelly + Kerry Hilson – Number One (So Shifty Remix)
So Shifty + Ward 21 – Wine
So Shifty + Ward 21 – Wine (Them Jeans Remix)
Tinashe – Mayday (So Shifty Remix) (via Le Dust)

Massive collaboration between Italian electro exports Crookers and US Icelandic outfit Steed Lord. Not quite what I expected, but I love these catchy vocals. Can’t wait for the weekend to drop this in the clubs and see people’s reaction.

Back from México

Découverte, Général, Musique Par: Jakob No Comments »

Hey kiddos, I’m back from México. After an entire day in bed, I just spent hours reading almost 1000 emails (not joking), sorting out the best music I’ve received in more than two weeks. There were dozens of track I really enjoyed, but I cut the list down to some favourites:

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I stumbled upon a particular email: Being only two weeks away from my MacBook, guess what happens? Danger releases a new EP, giving away a full track in 320k quality to bloggers. I like the pan flutes.
Remember when I was joking about Daft Punk releasing an album while I’m away? Obviously, they haven’t, but I can offer a nice upbeat disco-esque remix of Technologic.
Next one in line is a massive remix of Missy Elliot’s Pass That Dutch by Figure, up and coming producer from Louisville, featuring a minute from the original track. Run for cover!
Huge and nasty tech-house banger, exactly what you’d expect when SonicC put their remix fingerprints all over Sharooz :
Slow, atmospherical track featuring an amazing female voice reminding me of Adam Freeland’s Supernatural Thing. Haven’t heard of Billie Ray Martin before (shame on me), but this track is already one of my favourites at the moment, give it a listen!
Weird but catchy remix of M.I.A.’s new song. Not sure what genre or niche to put that one in, somewhere between pop and dubstep I guess, but somehow it got stuck in my head after the first listen. Beware, it’s highly addicting.
I’m not a big fan of mash-ups in general, but some are just too funny to keep them for myself: Alphabeat + The Beastie Boys = Intergalactic Spell, one of the best (and funniest) mash-ups I’ve heard lately:
I love sweep synths. If you do too, you should download Cosmo Black’s bootleg remix of PNAU’s With You Forever, a soft and chilled trip to space.
Last but definitely not least: LAZRtag’s latest track, an evil DJ weapon for packed, sweaty dancefloors. You can still get some sleep tomorrow.
