ps: I'll type a proper article later....

FUKKK OFFF

Learning about something new is cool. But nothing beats the feeling of unexpectedly discovering something completely different! Well that’s how I felt when I downloaded my first track from a brilliant blog (which you undoubtedly already heard of) YOUCANCALLMEPELSKI. But I’m not here to talk about the blog! Instead I’m going to talk about the producer that took me on a musical journey! Taking me from the african drum beats with lyrical wordsmithers to the uncharted and unknown island of musically mad men, breaking the boundaries of sounds, distorting, chopping, filtering, modifying and combining all sorts of natural sounds and turning them into forsaken monstrosities.Who is this great captain you ask? Fukkk Offf.

Although Fukkk Offf has been around for a long time I decided to write an article about him when it came to my attention that before my Gooseflesh article we at AWB hadn't posted anything about 'Captain' Fukkk Offf !!! Yes, I know, Its a sad world! But don't worry, Simple P is here! To spread bleeding ears, aching feet and set decks on fire!

Out of all his gems in my eyes his most precious is I’m a Freak, complete banger unbelievable bassline, catchy lyrics, a wicked incorporation of a normal drum kit (and by that I mean the high hats). Only downside is that its too long and repetitive... but then again what kind of DJ plays a full 7 minute track in a set? Sorry What was that? Yeah thought so NONE!

Regarding his EP WORLDWIDE. Personally..... To put my opinion in a nut shell.... This EP is more experimental, less ravy and not as dirty as his older stuff.

Tight Jeans (Fukkk Offf Remix) - D'Secret SVC Banana!
Ladies and Gents for today's class we shall be studying the effects of rap vocals on top of filthy basslines.

Famous (Dirty Disco Youth Remix) - Fukkk Offf Bananza! The kind of tune that can set your decks on fire.

The Bottom (Original Mix) - Fukkk Offf Epic banana. One of my personal Fukkk Offf Favs!

I'm A Freak (Original Mix) - Fukkk Offf EPICANZA BANANZA! DA tune that kicked me ass and made me a freakin raver. Probably his best track.

You Love My Shake (Frederic de Carvalho Remix) - Fukkk Offf Damn straight I like your shake!

Obscure Character

+500 Bastille Love and Admiration points for whoever can name the above obscure video game character.  It's a tough one, but I know you're up for it.  Let's do some House music, shall we?

-M

Samba De Vega (Original Mix) - Avicii vs Philgood (Golden Banana)
Super Housey sound from some of the best.  Dancey as hell too.

Back & Forth feat. Mr. V (Fedde's Future Funk Remix) - Mr. V, Fedde Le Grand
You might remember Green Velvet opening his set at HARD Summer LA with this track.  Crazy bass sound, and just funky ass track.  Tech House.

Back & Forth (Mr. Alex Remix) - Fedde Le Grand
If you're looking for something more Techy, this will do it for you.

KNAS (Original Mix) - Steve Angello
Hell yes.  I can see a whole rave crowd just going nuts at this drop.  Electro House, I guess?

Yo DJ (Original Mix) - Asino, DJ Jean
Dutch House, it's not dead yet.

House Hit (Tonic Remix) - Andt
More Dutchy sounds.  Catchy though, I like this one a lot, it's got more going on than most other Dutch tracks.

Touch It (Chris Lawyer Bootleg) - Busta Rhymes
Not the most creative Dutchy track, but it's clubby.  I wouldn't play it, but I'm sure there are plenty out there that would love to.

Future Los Angeles Beats!

Right on the heals of a fantastically forwardpushing super-psychedelic afrofuturistic journey that is his LP Cosmogramma, Flylo treats us now with a wonderfully put together 7 track EP: Pattern+Grid World. Where Cosmogramma was Flylo pushing his boundaries, we find P+GW serving up some classic toasty beats, a return to form but with the sonic knowledge he's been developing, a short afternoon meditation, its melting here, enjoy!

Pattern+Grid World

Wordsmith - Of Mics and Men

Wesleyan's very own rapper, Wordsmith, has made quite a name for himself, packing every venue he's every played on campus, and it's not just because of his backing band The Concert G's, which consists of many of the most talented musicians on campus.  People come to hear his words, and I've to be honest, I'm not a fan of rap (I like beats), but I am a fan of Wordsmith.  I'm proud to announce his brand new album, having taken 3 years to make, is finally out.  Gonna give a special shout out to Jared Paul, who produced, mixed, and mastered the whole thing.  That's what I'm, at heart, all about, and he's done a great job.  Hope you enjoy this, it's a really dark album with clear influence from Atmosphere.

Of Mics And Men - Wordsmith

( via The New Confusion)

Book Of - Wordsmith (Golden Banana)

My favorite track of the album, if you feel like sampling before grabbing the whole thing.

Multiple Assorted Jam Hot Tracks!

yea yea, this is Jumpman, dropping by from LA with some funky beats,

first up is a UK Funky track by Redlight, which is no doubt a good vocal track, love Roses Gabor, but im considering that it might hit harder as an instrumental i'll let you decide, one of the most ravey in yo face Funky songs i've heard, good show.

Redlight - Stupid (feat. Roses Gabor)

Redlight - Stupid (instrumental)

Next is Redlight's epic Dubstep anthem with UK Garage classic Ms. Dynamite toasting hardcore over his MDMA instrumental, gourgeous and hardhitting, can't ask for more than that in a tune,

Redlight - What You Talking About!? (feat. Ms. Dynamite) ]) Golden Banana

Redlight - MDMA

Speaking of Dubstep anthems, here's Benga's latest pretty electroportamento tinged tune which made the rounds this summer with vocals by katy b, epic, great sound. im also giving you Katy's also good Funky song with zinc, if you don't know zinc, it's Electro/Bassline House done by a veteran DnB artist, both of these are very focused on the vocal element, which is good cause Katy B does an amazing job each and every,

Benga - On A Mission (feat. Katy B) ]) Silver Banana

Zinc - Louder (feat. Katy B)

This one's really Pop-py, well so are the last two, but so infectious even your folks would start dancing, melodic grime, with trance/prog inspired chords and sweeps, pure class, champagne all around!

Skepta - Bad Boy

Oh snap, this one's personal, dark subs, classic long, extended, dubbed out chords, eno-esque melancholy, hardcore stuff, grime grime grime, zone out to the kick of the drum

Starkey - Numb (feat. P-Money)

Wow, been lovin this Hudmo remix of Grime champion Wiley for a minute now, cats better get on this, oldschool rave chords give way to amazing funky, tribal drums, featuring some beautiful UK Garage style pitch shifted cut up diva vocals,

Wiley - Electric boogaloo (Find A Way)[Hudson Mohawke Re-Fix]

BONUS:

one of my favorite tunes this year, carnival ready, wish it had gotten a proper release, but then again Funkystepz never really releases 90% of their material much to my chagrin, loads of tropically soaked percussion, breathy bass, polyphonic fun

Rihanna - Rude Boy (Funkystepz UK Funky Mix)

Cheers and as always enjoy! (ALL OFFENDING MATERIAL REMOVED BY REQUEST, SUPPORT ART!)

HUGE Electro House track from a new name to the game.  You can check an interview on Gotta Dace Dirty HERE.

Our boys from LA putting out their first release.  Check out their FACEBOOK for some more remixes and edits.  Electro House.

Great for "Guess That Video Game Song" which is something I do usually while setting up a gig.

Cid Highwind Zipped

Listening to these guys is like having the shag of your life. Sure you’ve had several eargasms listening to F.O.O.L, R3set and No1Else, sure you’ve probably cumed to Designer Drugs’ Drop Down even before pressing the play button or maybe you’ve wobbled your head so hard to Fukkk Offfs’ I’m A Freak that you can no longer think straight.

But these guys are different. Their tunes are so slutty that they have ‘dance hard party harder’ written all over them.Spin these hotties in a set and even the DJ will be taken for an intense ride in the dark corners of the dancefloor. How do I know that these chicks are Hot enough for your standard dirty disco set , dirty electro set, or fuck it dirty anything for that matter!? This is how. Popping from Instanbul. Gooseflesh has earned some serious rave credentials. Earning them the reputation of one of the Big Boys in the nasty underground music world in Eastern Europe. Playing at events such as Transmusicale in Renne.

“K Simple P it all sounds good, but even my 90 year old grandma spins filthy music in various places and has produced an occasional ‘banger’ here and there.” Yeah but you’re 90 year old grandma isn’t praised and supported by BBCs’ Radio 1, she hasn’t been hired by Dim Mak and EMI to produce and remix some of their tunes and hasn’t had her tunes remixed by the likes of Cyberpunkers and Fukkk Offf . Her sets can’t be that filthy anyway, she probably doesn’t spin any Gooseflesh tunes in fear of dying from a heart attack. What can I say not everyone can handle hotness.

Mi Amor (Gooseflesh Remix) - Pro7
Amame mi amor

Wet (Fukkk Offf Remix) - Gooseflesh
Wet is an understatement this tune had me dehydrated.

Love Me Hate Kiss Me Kill Me ( Gooseflesh Remix) - Fukkk Offf
"If you're talking behind my back that's a good position to kiss my ass"


Dodgems (Cyberpunkers Remix) - Gooseflesh
If you read my Cyberpunkers articles, you shouldn't even be wondering if whether to download this or not!

Dusk Winterman EP

Artwork by Vasya Kolotusha
http://redinkonpaper.blogspot.com/

Dusk Winterman is a legendary off road racer who's never lost a race ever. He only races off road. He currently drives a Jeep which he won from an African tribe by beating their best racer. That's how you know its a damn good car.

Aside from racing Dusk does two things (though they are related to racing): face wines and gets blow jobs in neutral.

Before every race Dusk face wines: the act of having box wine poured down into your mouth from a distance, ideally a balcony. This makes sure that he's at the perfect level of greatness before he begins his great race.

During the race he's just so far ahead that he just picks up some bitty, throws the car into neutral, and gets a blow job. Not only does he still win the race, but he crosses the finish line in neutral.

He is an idol to everybody who has met him, and only races off road.

Dusk Winterman, with his great stash of powers, also has a sidekick Liquid Sparks: a man who goes so fast that the sparks from his tires turn to liquid. Watch out for Liquid Sparks EP coming soon.

We are extremely proud to present you with our brand new EP:

Dusk Winterman EP - Bastille

P.S.

Half of Bastille (The M one that does all the posts), will be playing at a Lesbian club in North Hampton called Divas.  If you're in the area, it's gonna be a party.  And guys don't worry, it's very well attended by Smith girls, and enough of them will jump on you.  Check the Facebook event HERE.

Fox McCloud

Star Fox, I salute you.  Though I must admit, I was a bigger fan of you back in the days you were pixelated.

Puss Puss (Original Mix) - Style Of Eye (Golden Banana)
Ravey awesomeness.  Tech House at it's best.  I guess not every Swede makes that gay prog shit.

Make My Heart (Avicii's Replacer Remix) - Toni Braxton
Speaking of that Swedish gay prog shit...

Singapore Swing (Original Mix) - Shinichi Osawa & Paul Chambers
More Electro Techno for you.  This will be played out by Erol and 2manydjs and the like.

Puss Puss (Noob Remix) - Stlye Of Eye
I think I prefer the original, but for people who like Noob's style more I'm sure you'll get more into this.  Still, I do love this one.

Pump Up The Jam (Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike Crowd Is Jumping Mix) - Technotronic
I just totally picture everyone jumping at once at a massive rave when this is dropped.  This could be powerful as hell in the right crowd.  House.

BONUS:
I Will Be Here (Michael Witness Summer Mix) - Tiesto Feat. Syntheticsax
This might well be the worst House song I've ever heard.  Elevator House.  I just had to share it.  And I know all the people that just download the zip are gonna be so pissed when they hear it without reading this description.  But what the genius Michael Witness here has done is replace the great vocals of this song with a saxophone.

I Will Be Here (Wolfgang Gartner Remix) - Tiesto & Sneaky Sound System

Chew Your Face Off

Everyone hates on Trance.  And rightfully so.  It does suck.  That said, it's also quite awesome.  If you're gonna be a DJ, you should appreciate the other stuff that's out there, as well as the shit that's come before.  This post is dedicated to some Old School Trance, and not that pretty shit, but the kind that made kids everywhere grind their teeth together until they went home and had to explain to their parents why they were missing a tooth.

-M

Shutterspeed - Pavo & Zany
Hardstyle.  So intense.  Fuck.

Blood Is Pumping (Club Mix) - Voodoo & Serano
Sorry for the shitty quality, but this is such a classic.  Makes me think of vampires.

The Vulcan - Commander Tom
Some REALLY old school shit, all the way back to 1994.

(X-Ray) Follow Me (Live Version) - Space Frog
If you can get over the cheese factor, its pretty awesome.

King Of The Beats - Mindcontroller
More Hardstyle.  I feel like I'm marching towards the apocalypse.

Big Fat Bass - Pavo & Zany
Yeah, I definitely laugh too when I listen to this.

(X-Ray) Follow Me (Vocal Version) - Space Frog
It's impossible to get over the cheese on this one.

High Voltage - High Voltage
AC/DC already happened

BONUS:
Ayla 2010 (Jerome Isma-Ae v2) - Ayla
Some modern Trance, but this is the pretty shit not the grind your teeth shit.  More the put your arms in the air and sway.

I Feel Love feat. Wynter Gordo (Goodwil, Hook N Sling Remix) - Rhythm Masters, MYNC, Wynter G
Tech House with a proggy bulid, that I'm not personally a fan of, but I feel like if you're crowd is rolling they'll all be like "THATS HOW I FEEEEEEEEL"

WTNF - Marco V feat Benjamin Bates
More Tech House for the Rave crowd.  Or is it Techno?  Or is it Tech Trance.  Ugh...

Mark Knight and The One!

 I realize that this makes our third post in a very short period of time, but it's one song, and most importantly it's the second coming.

Not particularly new as it came out in July, but we seemed to have missed putting this little guy up. I'm not gonna deny that it's in no way my favorite of theirs. It reminds me of something, with a little bit of time I'll be able to figure out the song.

Conscindo (Original Club Mix) by Mark Knight and Wolfgang Gartner

Casa Techno

Rainbow would be the best noun to illustrate an artist that has been through it all, you name it odds are he’s probably already done it. Described as a Veteran DJ and Music ambassador since he was in short trousers. From a simple white canvas with a few amateur drawings to a colorful Master Piece.

As a Painter the master piece that put him on track was his live performance at Zap Club in Brighton in 1988. Where he decided to turn the heat up by spinning with 3 vinyl decks, making 15000 knocked up ravers get back up on their already swollen feet. From there on he’s been enjoying a wide variety of scenes, such as djing at SW4, WMC, The Arches, Matter, the Global Gathering which are nothing but baby steps when compared to his respectable record of djing in Ibiza for 8 years in a row. As if the festivals weren’t a colorful palette, Mr Carl Cox has been spotted djing alongside Fat Boy Slim, Francois Kevorkian, Laurent Garnier, Fedde Le Grand, Green Velvet, Pendulum, Plump Djs and many others.

Rainbow Man’s I Want You dropped in 1991 top 30 hits under the Perfecto Label. Not really feeling the sounds of trance and ‘fluffy’ house of the time, he turned back to the underground world where he met his true love, TECHNO. Ever Since he’s been spinning techno bangers as if they we’re nothing but doodles in a white canvas. I Want You track has been remixed by the mighty Deadmau5 and has remixed Moby’s Walk With Me from a sophisticated track into a certified techno banger. 2006 saw the celebration of Carl Cox's own label Intec Records drop it's 50th release Sebastien Leger's Bad Clock.

Carl Cox is a man of quality not quantity, his experience as a dj has given him an ear for selecting quality tunes. Thus I strongly recommend to keep and eye out for his top charts on beatport and his mixes on b@Tv.

Paradise Poltergeist - Tai (Golden Banana)

Pound 4 Pound - edIT
Hell yes, I really can't get enough of this Breakbeat / Glitch Hop shit.

No Reasons (Angger Dimas Remix) - Alex Armes
Progressive banger, strings and all.  Super Big Room, I just see this exploding.

Rawmania (Rubix Remix) - Solo
Sans distortion.  I don't think I'd play this live, but damn I like listening to it.  Tribaly House, klesmery sort of.

bass in your face

This Dude looks like a complete hippie.

I'm not going to deny that I first really heard about Bassnectar from this raver chick I used to hook up with. She was balls nuts. All in all I don't like her. I think that's why it took me until very recently to actually sit down and look into his shit.

Lorin Ashton, I'm proud to say, is a good old dude from San Francisco, California (where I currently reside). You can definitely tell by the picture, you don't see that kind of hair as frequently anywhere else but SF. In fact, again I'm not going to lie to you, I could have seen this dude in the park next to my apartment (full of hippies), and walked straight past until I had looked up his picture.

But in all honesty I would probably still walk by, completely oblivious. They all kinda look the same.

But in the end what matters is the music, and this guy makes some shit intense rattling Dubstep. I also hear his shows are incredible, and I'm really hoping to get to go to one soon. I am in his hometown.

I'm sure all the readers already know of him, but I decided, as he hasn't really made an appearance on the blog yet, this would be his debut (I'm sure he'll thank us for acknowledging him).

-J

First Up I put up a few single tracks in case people weren't wanting the albums or for some reason need a preview of sorts:

Seek and Destroy (Bassnectar Remix) by Metallica, yep yep. Awesome, he proclaimed his love for Metallica on his myspace, he did em right.

Ridiculous Wobble - Feat. Nibu by Bassnectar, wobble wobble wobble, I wonder when the day comes that nobody gives a shit about the wobble anymore.

Blast Off (Original Mix) by Bassnectar (Golden Banana) That should say enough, it's my favorite of his.

Heads up by Bassnectar, This is kinda how I feel when my roomate is being an asshole and wakes me up from my nap purely out of idiocy.

The Chaotic Good Interview

From honorary mention of Kavinsky’s Nightcall remix competition, to winners of Dim Maks & Heineken remix competition and the release of an EP in a MONTH! The Chaotic Good name seems alarmingly close to the definition of what he does, producing GOOD CHAOTIC music. Good intro, Good outtro, catchy lyrics, amazing build-ups and unbelievable drops are just the basic ingredients. Which then have to be mixed, chopped, grilled and cooked with the help of an arsenal of vintage synthesizers and funky midi controllers such as M-Audios Axiom 25 and ableton live. And obviously all these tools and ingredients are then measured and put to their best with the help of one talented Chef.

So we at AWB decided to treat our loyal followers to an exquisite interview with the very Chef.

Bon Apetit


AWB: How did TCG come about?
TCG: The TCG came about from a love of art and music, pure and simple. I am a classically trained musician and artist and I enjoy being able to use both in my work. I bring an 8 ft tall, 600 lb. robot with me to all of my shows. It dances. I believe dance music, and music in general for that matter, will become much more visual as time goes on.

AWB: Why soooo much free stuff? (Haven’t seen this much generosity before)
TCG: Music should be free! Performances, on the other hand, maybe not. My live sets involve quite a bit of work (including setting up the robot and everything) and it's a better way to make a living in my opinion. Listening is free. Experiencing is not.

AWB: How did it feel to win and get to dj alongside legendary Scratch Dj Jazzy Jeff?
TCG: Ha that was a very surreal experience. He personally selected our remix and that alone was quite an honor. To get respect from anyone is special, and to receive it from one as distinguished as him was incredible. His live set was amazing of course, and to hear him give me 3 shout outs during it was even better!

AWB: Besides the obvious exposure you got from winning the competition and having your remix released on Dim Maks’ compilation, has it also opened any other doors? Calls from other Labels? Other producers?Gigs?
TCG: I'd say the biggest door it has opened has been the online community. My plays on soundcloud have quadrupled! And the blog response has been fantastic. Several producers have asked for remixes, and I've received several gigs as well.

AWB: If you could work with only one producer, who would it be and why?
TCG: Danger. Hands down. His songs are so musical, unique, and of course, bitcrushed. Can't get enough of those crushed bits.

AWB: Also I hear that you have just added this gem (TS 10 Ensoniq) to your synth collection. Why of all synths did you choose this one?
TCG: It was free. Haha I borrowed it from a friend for use on the EP. I really love the early 90's shredding guitar synths it cranks out. It's all very kitsch and eccentric. Plus it has that great fluorescent display!

AWB: Besides the TS 10, what other kind of equipment do you use?
TCG: I'm mostly digital. I use Logic and Ableton exclusively: Logic for Midi and composition, Ableton for audio. I also heavily use an analog filter box called the Sherman Filterbank 2, and a couple other esoteric analog devices.

AWB: What is of major appeal and mystery to me and your fans is the unique electro sound you guys have. I find it hard to say you sound like Justice, The Toxic avenger, Mr Oizo, Andys Ill and so on. And yet it is proper good electro. Also can we expect to hear the I Fight For You remix (full mix) be featured on the EP?
TCG: The upcoming EP is 100% original music! I would like to include the I Fight For You remix on there (which I came in 3rd place for that remix competition) but I find it hard to include remixes on my EP. I like to own it. The entire EP will still be 100% free- as well as all my remixes of course.

AWB: In one word, how do you describe the type of music you make?
TCG: 01001100101001011010110010101101011001010101001

AWB: What are your influences?
TCG: First and foremost- Daft Punk. I know everyone says it, and for me it's absolutely true. I wouldn't be making electronic music without their influence. After them, I'd say classical music has influenced me a lot. I played classical piano for 10 years growing up, and listened to Mozart fairly heavily. I like incorporating the theory I learned growing up to Dance music, which I see as starved for proper thoery. Now if I hadn't told you that, you would never think I applied classical theory to my music, but that's the point. Great music is felt, not heard, and that's where theory comes into play.

AWB: Do you consider yourself a DJ or a Live producer (Such as Deadmau5)?
TCG: I definitely consider myself a live producer- and in fact I use a very similar live setup to Deadmau5. I use ableton exclusively live, triggering samples via midi controllers, etc. I try to play as much original music as possible when I dj, and I really look forward to the day when I have enough original music to do a 2 hour set.

AWB: Do you get looked down on by a lot of DJs who use cdjs and vinyls? Would you advise aspiring DJs to stick to what they like to use or to first learn how to mix with vinyls/CDs?
TCG: I'm a firm believer that the ends justify the means. How it gets done isn't important. What is important is that you feel comfortable using what you use, and that the music sounds good! When it comes down to it, it's all about song selection. And yes, I do get looked down on because I didn't spend 10 years learning how to properly spin vinyl. I'm sure the native americans had a similar argument to the spaniards using guns, when it took them a lifetime to learn how to use a bow and arrow.

AWB: On the Subject of modern DJs, would you agree that DJ stands for both Disco Jockey AND Digital Jockey? Because at the end of the day, the job of a good jockey is to ‘cheat’ the listeners into thinking that the track hasn't changed.
TCG: It could stand for anything as far as I'm concerned- I don't see why they can't be called musicans. Not as dramatic I suppose. You could say I'm a disc jockey- but the only discs I'm jockeying are hard drives. Digital Jockey is an effective acronym, yes.

AWB: Should both types of DJs be seen as equal or should they be seen as 2 different types of entertainers?
TCG: I see a big difference between the two, but I definitely believe they are equal. I am equally entertained by both! And entertainment is the goal, is it not?

AWB: How do you manage to carry those huge Mac monitors to your gigs?!
TCG: Ha I get made fun of quite a bit for lugging my iMac to shows. As a musician, carrying a little thing like an iMac to a show is nothing. I consider myself blessed to have an instrument so small! Think about drummers! As to why I use an iMac instead of a laptop, well, I simply enjoy having all that screen space and extra computing power that the iMac provides. Some of my ableton setups get pretty heavy on the CPU and memory banks.

AWB: And finally how many concerts do you attend a year? And which ones were memorable?
TCG: I usually attend one every other month. I'm afraid of crowds. Haha. The most memorable for me was probably one of the shows I played with Le Castle Vania this year. The energy he brings live in incredible!

His assistant, sexy as fuck if you ask me
