usually i dont do this, but uh...

I'm gonna post someone else's mix for a change. Just got word from Ross Hogg that the "juggling these rocks," I think its called, mix is ready. Now, I'm just trying to find someone who knows something about mastering. So, check back in the next few days for what will definitely be a banging look at what's good outta Jamaica. Crank dat hype machine to find some of the nice blends he's been consistently putting out.

In the mean time, Sal Paradise has been dropping some real nice mixes on fathertonix. Here's the newest one, dude's got some excellent taste in music and knows how to put shit together so it flows all nice. Here is his Blog.

Marcus Worgull - Spellbound ft. Mr. White

OPPAPPI!

Been getting the hook up on so many saucy new tracks lately, I can't hold this shit back. My avatar may be somewhat remiss in it's presence these days, but I'm here, like a cancer or an aneurysm, waiting. Waiting for the day when I return to your world of free-will and ispeak and bring that fire back to what's raw. Hold your breath and you'll die soon enough.


Slam - Azure (Radioslave Remix) [alt link]

We all must question how men like Matt Edwards find the time to be so consistently balling on that producing/banging/remixing/label owning tip. You gotta hand it to the bastard; he's been rubbing us off for like 2 years straight with No Sleep.




Astra Moveo - Wrecked [alt link]

Same goes for our good friend, James Holden, who- much like Tokyo wonderfreak Gal Sone- just can't seem to get enough. In addition to remixing/producing/schooling and owning Border Community, is now in a new project that might be a band it seems and hit us up with a taste of the moveo


Vicious - Best Robots [alt link]

You may not know Vicious, or maybe you do, but if you don't, you will, and if you do, you're still poppin' off. Constantly developing, I always expect greatness from my boy, but this is really something that delivers on a level of mycrosymphonics beyond which I had imagined. Starting off like a simple IDM exercise, this track deftly develops into a suite of strings and bass synths that keeps banging for time immortal. Like AFX and Matthew Dear having a naughty tea party at the Metropolitan Opera, best robots has stuck with my for weeks. Do yourself a favor and check it out, there's something eVil brewing, and it's definitely still pissing.


James Nasty - Fake ID [alt link]
DJ Metric - These Boots Were Made For Walking It Out [alt link]

Great new bmore club from James Nasty and club city recs, making moves. DJ Metric holding it down, mad props for the comp man, I am all over this track.

And ditto with the following, a minimix I am really enjoying if only for banging without sounding like everything else these days... fuck homogeneity in dance music!!

As is the norm these days, in no mood to wax fanciful about these tracks, 3/4 of which are out of respect to the poor sod who wanted to listen to that Drexciya jammer I posted last month. Some bonus Abstract Thought for you, my aquatic friend! In truth, I just wanted to share this 6Blocc gem with y'all, which will certainly become a vaunted classic in the ThrowbackStep subgenre. Oh lord....

LCD Soundsystem - Get Innocuous (Soulwax Remix) [alt link]

Black Milk - "So Gone" [alt link]

Dj Phinesse has been turning out tracks like crazy the past couple weeks. A lot of bangers, and you'll have to do some interneting to find them all, too many for one post. Here's a couple of the heaters.

DJ Phinesse - Fallin In Luv [alt link]

DJ Phinesse - Get My Gun (Fully Loaded Clip Mix) [alt link]

DJ Phinesse - Find A Dream

And, a remix from Curtis Vodka

DJ Phinesse - Get On Down (Curtis Vodka Remix)

Tameil also just released this to the internet world.

DJ Tameil - Shotgun Buck

Not Alan Braxe's best work right here, but considering its a remix for Kylie Minogue, shit is definitely worth checking out.

Kylie Minogue - 2 Hearts (Alan Braxe Remix) [alt link

New Wu-Tang, sounds old and gritty like.

Wu Tang Clan - Take It Back [alt link]

Always nice when R&B artists compete with each other. Here's a pretty nice cover of J-Holiday's track by The Dream. Overall I like the Holiday one better, but the "left right left" part of this cover kills the original.

The Dream - Bed (J-Holiday Cover) [alt link]

MDFMKMFDM

This is a pretty rad remix of Matthew Dear by M.A.N.D.Y.

Matthew Dear - Don And Sherri (M.A.N.D.Y. Remix) [alt link]

Gonna try to throw up some of the crazy things in the radio station. Here's the first one:

KMFMD - Juke Joint Jezebel: The Giorgio Moroder Remixes

K.M.F.D.M. - Juke-Joint Jezebel (Poly-matrix)
K.M.F.D.M. - Juke-Joint Jezebel (Original Single Edit)
K.M.F.D.M. - Juke-Joint Jezebel (Metropolis)
K.M.F.D.M. - Juke-Joint Jezebel (Paradox)
K.M.F.D.M. - Juke-Joint Jezebel (Poly-matrix X-Tended)
K.M.F.D.M. - Kraut

HE IS

Greetings, cronies. I've been inundated with mid-term assignments for the past few weeks. But I've managed to make some music in meantime, mostly sample-based arrangements in Ableton - and now I'm going to share them with you...

Doctor Cuts - "Stained Glass Effigy" [alt link]

Doctor Cuts - "Cold Warriors" [alt link]

The first person to identify all the sample sources will be... duly ostracized.

And playing second fiddle to me today is Glasgow's Rustie, whose Jagz the Smack EP is gaining a reputation for causing parties to spontaneously materialize.

Rustie - "Clipper" [alt link]

Flying Lotus dropped the short but ever-so-sweet LP 1983 on Plug Research last year, and he recently followed it up with the Reset EP, yet another bite-sized appetizer, this time on Warp.

Flying Lotus - "Tea Leaf Dancers (Feat. Andreya Triana)" [alt link]

The new Boxcutter LP Glyphic is also pretty saucy. This dude is clearly among the dubstep cognoscenti, but Boxcutter's protean variations on the style have a fluidity that is uniquely his, and it would be a mistake to regard him as a one-trick dub pony. Glyphic is one of the most cogent releases among the slew of high-profile dubstep long-players dropping this fall. (Burial, anyone?) When a skanky bassline alone can no longer hold your interest, you can always count on Boxcutter to avoid such reductive genre formulas.

Boxcutter - "Glyphic" [alt link]

In other news, the new Box of Dub 2 compilation on Soul Jazz is replete with skanky basslines, but it contains a few tasty morsels, namely...

Cotti - "Tamil Dub" [alt link] and Kode 9 - "Stung" [alt link]

Dubstep everywhere I go. Keep an eye on Hotflush Recordings.

Benga & Walsh - "Military" [alt link]

Spectr - "Motion" [alt link]

Last but not least, here's one from the new Alter Ego LP Why Not?!, which is every bit as raucous as you expected it to be.

Alter Ego - "Fuckingham Palace" [alt link]
