Sunday Sloth

It's Sunday again, and that means headaches all around. So I figured I slow things down and toss up some awesome tracks that all have those awesome middle sections where the track slows down to a hip-hop beat then speeds right back up. Basically, guaranteed bombs for your DJ sets. Also gonna start a new little convention, you'll probably catch it.

Play That Next Episode (Original Mix) - Avicii (The Golden Banana) (REMOVED)
I mean, you get both an awesome Avicii House track AND fuckin Dr. Dre in one. How could you possibly beat that...?

Jump Around (Deadmau5 Remix) - House Of Pain
Well, you could combine Deadmau5 with House Of Pain, pretty solid combo as well.

Bad Boy For Life (La Mode Remix) - P Diddy
Played this at a gig here recently, and my god everyone just freaked the fuck out. This is definitely one of my favorites to pull out.

Puah (Original Mix) - Gigi Barocco
Have yet to play this, I was thinking of pulling this one out next gig, but I'm probably gonna go with the Avicii, and you can't really play more than of these sorts of tracks at any gig.

Pump Pump (Aniki Edit) - Snoop Dogg
What's especially great about this Fidget banger is that it works great as an intro track to your set, especially if you want to go heavy all the way the through.

Oh Yeah - Spinstyles
This is the only track in this list to slow down to Dub, so if you're more into that then this one's for you.

Let Me Clear My Throat - DJ Kool vs Da Urban Outlaws
Classic. The voice on this would definitely get everyone cheering, but the sampling of the crowd cheering would probably help with that too. You could probably get away with playing this as your second slow down track since its a bit different.

Y'all Know the Name (Flosstradamus Remix) - Jokers of the Scene
Craziness, and it goes into Simon Says by the one and only Pharoahe Monch.

Ring Ring Ring (Club Mix) - Kurd Maverick
Not something I'd play live, a lot more corny. But since it fits the theme I thought I'd post it, still definitely a cool song. More for the Prog House fans.

Soakers Of The Jeans

Jokers Of The Scene are an electro duo from Canada and are signed to A-Trak's label, Fool's Gold, which has seen releases from Kavinsky, Congorock, Treasure Fingers, and Kid Sister. Now these guys, often abbreviated as JOTS, have an interesting and unique sound, as their songs definitely are bangers but often use chord changes that feel like they would be at home in a progressive house track. They've also been fairly hit and miss for me, personally, so here's my best of.

Baggy Bottom Boys - Jokers Of The Scene
Why we love them in the first place. One of those unforgettable electro tracks.

H Muet (Jokers Of The Scene Remix) - The Brash
Their most recent track that I just grabbed today and inspired me to do this post. It's a weird one, so if you're not sold in the begining please stay with it untill then end. I'm convinced that this song would destroy live.

Jerk It (Jokers Of The Scene Remix) - Thunderheist
This song fascinates me. The first 3 minutes, despite the fact that the kick comes in and out, is essentially a giant buildup for one drop. However, this song is dancey as fuck. Bravo.

B4U (Jokers Of The Scene Remix) - Vitaminsforyou
Prepare for an epic section at 2:18 that's so incredibly epic, that it might even be on par with Conan The Barbarian (I have this poster hanging in my room).

Shake A Leg (Jokers Of The Scene Remix) - Water Lily
Awesome sidechained based with great sample work and and awesome part right before the final drop that would get any crowd cheering and might blow some speakers in the process.

Runark (Jokers Of The Scene Remix) - Congorock
Simply awesome, similar to Baggy Bottom Boys. They even have these chords that only last a second that remind me of The Prodigy.

Fly Or Bounce (Jokers Of The Scene Remix) - Destroy Disco
More awesomeness.
