I Love Beer

Except when it gets spilled on your computer while you're DJing at a frat and kills your battery and charger.  Luckily my computer and hard drive are both still intact, but expect a slow down in posts from me in the near future.  I would like to think that J and Jumpman would help pick up the slack and do some posts, but I'm definitely not about to hold my breath, and you shouldn't either.  Anyways, I'll find out tomorrow morning just how bad it is, and with a little luck I might be back up and running in no time.

Release The Beast - Breakwater
This song got sampled in a big way by some big dudes.  It's a really easy one to guess, so only +1 Bastille Love and Admiration Points for the first person to comment the answer, but hey, every point counts, right?  You get to cash them in for awesome arcade prizes on your way out.

BONUS:
Carry Out (Soundpusher & DJ Rock City Remix) - Timbaland
Props to StraightNoChasa for this Electro House track, perfect for club/college crowdeven with it's sort of Prog bass

MONO/POLY

Los Angeles based Psychedelic Beat-Maker MONO/POLY is probably one of the best up and coming LA beatmakers right now, however just a little while ago he was struggling to get started as a musician while trying to get through college, but finally with help from the Brainfeeder crew is entering the limelight to get a chance to release some of the fantastic music which he has been making, My interest in MONO/POLY started after hearing a mix of his a while back, which although still some what amateurish at the time (he hasn't been DJing that long, but if you listen to his Mary Anne Hobbs mix below you'll see hes signifigantly improved), still managed to win me over because of the production and how he somehow dropped a Vitalic song in the mix along the way, his style of psych hip-hop stuff is really electro tinged funkyness with hard hitting, fantastic sounds the likes of which Oizo and early HudMo would love. He has a ton of unreleased material, all of which that i've heard is awesome especially his remix of T-Pain and Lil' Wayne's 'Can't Believe It', which i hope will at point see the light of day, in fact i hope we see alot in the next year from MONO/POLY. Here Is His First EP The George Machine, out on Faces Records, along with the fantastic Mary Anne Hobbs Mix he did this last spring. 'Beatles Bitch' takes the cake as far as the best track goes. Enjoy!

Sample Quiz

So this song randomly came on while I was listening to something else, and I realized where one of my favorite electro song got its roots. Of course you could have found out where the electro song got its samples just by looking online or what not. Maybe I'm late to the game and everybody knows the answer to this quiz but whatever.

It was obvious to me within a few seconds of this song coming on, and the winner gets 10 Bastille Love and Admiration Pts. (notice the first letters have been capitalized so you know it's important love and admiration; and M you can't go for it). Write your answers in the comments. I would recommend for those who get to this late to not look at the comments but to first try and get it themselves.

Which electro song and producer sampled quite a few things from this song:

Let's Start the Dance by Bohannon


and for good measure I'll throw in this song too though it has nothing to do with the quiz, maybe someone will hear a sample in it or something:

Foot Stompin' Music by Bohannon


P.S. I've made a commitment to doing more posts, and I genuinely expect to hold to that commitment. However, I'm pretty sure my computer is on the verge of death (seeing as it almost didn't turn on this afternoon). So if my computer dies, and i'm pretty sure it would last another 2 weeks, it's probably going to be a little while until I get a new one, so you can expect at most 2-3 posts until I get that new one.
