Trouble & Bass are the undisputed kings of, well, you guessed it; Bass. On May 31st the label released a huge record with must-have remixes. What record? Poland’s bass duo, SUPRA1.
Their EP is called Still Believe and has two original tracks, the title track featuring vocal work from diva-esque Amy Douglas. That same track is accompanied by remixes from the who’s who of underground dance music right now: Brackles, Gucci Vump, L-Vis 1990, Franki Chan, The Phantom, and Boogaloo Crew.
Check the L-Vis 1990 remix as a sample and cop the whole thing at Beatport now.
Julio Bashmore is one classy dude. Somehow the kid churns out tunes that are the perfect bridge between the UK’s current scene and Dirtybird’s signature, Tech-House style. In short, he’s pretty much a dream come true for us at Hot Bizzies. Another dream come true is his elegantly bass-heavy remix of Delphic’s “Halcyon”, which perfectly demonstrates his genius and flexibility.
This tune is so versatile that you could hear it rinsed to the masses at a Claude VonStroke show or on a much smaller, more intimate level with Bok Bok in one of his ustream sessions. Yes, the vocals are missing, but there are other remixers from this release who utilize them quite well; L-Vis 1990 and Deadboy are a couple of them. Also, if you’re not familiar with Delphic, their new release, Acolyte, is available on iTunes (UK only) and comes with a bonus track and videos. Get on it.
Finally, after what seems to be forever, Fool’s Gold has released my secret weapon to the masses. What secret weapon, you ponder? Why, no other than Kingdom’s tracks “Mindreader” and “You”. I wrote about these a long time ago here on Hot Bizzies and it’s been a fun wait, as Kingdom has grown to become one of the best producers and DJs in the game. With his percussion-heavy bass bangers layered with diva vocals, his sets and mixtapes are always a blast. And now, with the release of this EP we can finally rejoice.
The EP is backed by remixes from his UK family Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990 as well as the legendary Todd Edwards. If you were lucky, you ordered the 10″ from Acephale with it’s silver foil accents and slightly different design. If you weren’t lucky, don’t worry, Fool’s Gold will re-release it. Until then, you can purchase digitally on Beatport, Boomkat, and Amazon.
Now that 2009 is officially over and done, we can get excited about all the new music producers stepping up to the plate to make 2010 start off with a bang. Much like Bok Bok and L-vis 1990 in 2009, you couldn’t escape hearing the buzz about these two. Aside from producing and DJing, the two also started a pretty rowdy party called Night Slugs, which has now evolved into a label.
The first release on the Nightslugs record label is from Mosca. If you’re a geek like Beats or I, than you’ve probably heard Mosca through Kingdom, Bok Bok, or Dubbel Dutch on one of their ustream sets. If you’re unfamiliar with Mosca, then this EP will be a great introduction, as he’s everything you’d hope for in a producer. Blending quirky deep techno sounds with world house vibes and tons of bass. This is “grown ‘n sexy” club music far removed from the annoying screechy sounds of blog house, but with the same inventive energy. Not only are the original tracks fantastic but the Nightslugs sprung for some heavy duty remixers like Roska, Greena and Julio Bashmore.
The EP will be released to every digital music retailer (iTunes, Juno, Beatport, Boomkat, etc.) as well as have a very limited number of vinyl copies pressed. Keep an eye out for Night Slugs releases through-out the year because they plan on releasing EPs for Kingdom, Greena, Jam City, Girl Unit and Egyptrixx.
