Dirty Bit

I've been in major finals mode.  Life's been horrible.  If you want to know how I've been procrastinating, click HERE for the most beautiful and depressing game I've ever experienced.  And if you think there isn't anything to it, trust me there is, just look for it.  It is art.

Some remixes finally leaked in 320 that I've been excited for, so I thought I'd take a moment to post em.  The buildups I hate, but that's just because I don't really care for the original.

The Time (Dirty Bit) (Zedd Remix) - The Black Eyed Peas (GOLDEN BANANA)
Zedd has quickly risen as one of the most exciting names in Electro House right now, along with guys like Porter Robinson and some more established names like Lazy Rich and Skrillex, seeing as their styles are somewhat similar.  It's exciting, I like it.  He also goes half time for the second drop, which is his signature I guess.


The Time (Dirty Bit) (Afrojack Remix) - The Black Eyed Peas (Silver Banana)
Of course this remix will get played out the most.  I like it, got a lot of friends hating on Afrojack right now.  I'm not tryna hate on anyone so much, unless his name is Steve Aoki.  This remix is Electro/Dutch House, and I'm a fan, but the Zedd remix definitely takes the cake over this.


The Time (Dirty Bit) (Felguk Remix) - The Black Eyed Peas
Also a remix from one of my personal favorite Electro House acts straight outa Brazil.  Unfortunately, this remix isn't one of their best.  It's heavy for sure, but it's sorta random.

My Name is Skrillex

Skrillex newly discovered LA based electro producer mostly known for his originality and peculiar arsenal of synths which listener probably have never heard before. If Metal Electro was a genre i'd say this guy is it's pioneer...

His latest EP My Name Is Skrillex (which you can get for FREE) is without a doubt a diamond in the rough just waiting to be polished so it can go onto the hall of fame of electro producers!

He's also already lined up to play alongside Dirty Disco Youth at the Liquid Sky (September 3rd) and with Major Lazer,
Rusko, Tim Green and Designer Drugs at the Abstract Festival (September 11th).


With that said here are a few Tunes from the man Skrillex (Note the lady gaga and Black Eyed peas Remix are not included in the EP Free Download)

Fucking Die 2 (€€ Cooper Mix)- Skrillex In my opinion one of the best tunes in the EP.

Rock that Body (Skrillex Extended Remix)- Balck Eyed Peas Loving the vocals on this one.

Bad Romance (Skrillex Remix)- Lady Gaga Showing Lady Gaga's dirty side.

BONUS:

Ok for the bonus we got an absolute dirty track by Dirty Disco Youth, No matter how old it gets it never ceases to pump me up

Get The Fuck Out- Dirty Disco Youth

EEDEESEE

I feel like I either defeat EDC, or am defeated by it.  This year was probably the latter.  Not that it wasn't awesome, just damn was it a night.  Here's our review for the 2010 Electric Daisy Carnival.

BEST

Wolfgang Gartner

I mean, he's the second fucking coming of christ.  And he played Yin.  Also heard what most certainly were unreleased tracks that sounded sick as fuck.  Man's really the best.

Yin (Original Club Mix) - Francis Preve and Wolfgang Gartner

Boys Noize

This will be the 4th time I've seen this dude.  Hopefully you've all already had the pleasure as well.  His stage presence is always top notch.  But if that's not enough, check out the first 3 songs in his setlist:

Kontact Me (Rynecologist Turbine Remix) - Boys Noize
Lyposuct (Original) - D.I.M. & TAI
Yeah, Techno! (Soulwax Mix) - Paul Chambers

Felix Cartal

J liked his set more than Boys Noize, and it was definitely a competitor.  Boys Noize had the advantage of bigger stage, better lights, headlining slot, and well, just being Boys Noize.  That said, Felix managed to get his daytime crowd jumping, and was dropping some awesome fucking tracks.  He also just looked dope on stage.  He's come a long way since I first saw him for free at Vassar.

Beyond God To Elvis (Felix Cartal Remix) - From Monument To Masses
THIS MACHINE DON'T GIVE A SHIT

GOOD

Fedde Le Grand

Caught the end of his set before Boys Noize.  Good stuff, not as stand out as the above stuff, but definitely enjoyable.  Some songs were too minimal and just got boring and you could see it in the crowd, but he's redeem himself with the next song.  He played this Hardwell bootleg that I'm not too crazy about, but I love the song underneath it:

P.O.V. (Steve Angello Remix) - Kim Fai

P.O.V. (Steve Angello Remix) (Hardwell Edit) - Kim Fai

Laidback Luke

I'm sure he would have been in the best list, but we couldn't get onto the floor for the main stage.  We saw the end of his set from the stands where the sound was really shitty.  Then he dropped some Dubstep and Drum & Bass.  Hearing that at the Main Stage at EDC was nice.

Groove Armada

We didn't catch much of their set either, but it sounded dope.  We were just pretty tired then and their stuff was sort of trancier than we needed to get us hyped.  But I'll put em here.

WORST

Duck Sauce

This was such a disappointment to me.  When we got there, it just wasn't going over well.  I heard them drop one of their originals called Grand Steppin which is like the homage to Daft Punk's Homework, and the crowd was not having it really.  Don't get me wrong, I fucking love it, but it wasn't what I wanted to hear at a rave.  As we were leaving to catch Fedde, they dropped a dope House track, so maybe it was just the tiny amount of time we were there, but we weren't willing to wait around for it to get better.

Grand Steppin' (Original Mix) - Duck Sauce

Will.I.Am

Since when is playing a pop song, stopping it to say things, and then playing another pop song considered DJing?  We only saw him because we wanted to get into the main stage to see Laidback Luke, but it was impossible.  Hearing songs like Thriller mixed in is awesome, but when you're just playing these types of songs to be a crowd pleaser, you're a bitch, especially when you're not even mixing them.  Fuck you, Will.I.Am, I got a feeling you should stick to the studio.

Crysteena Got A Feeling (Bastille Bootleg) - Fear Of Tigers vs. David Guetta

Wolfgang Returns

It's kind of a blog rule that when a new Wolfgang Gartner track emerges, it must be posted immediately, for obvious reasons.

Imma Be (Wolfgang Gartner Remix) - Black Eyed Peas

I'm Back

Had a mad weekend.... How mad? These tunes will tell you how mad.

BNDTS - DEFEAT Dirtyyyy Banana (320kbps) If music could fuck.... I'd say this one does it pretty well.

Boom Boom Pow (Sebon Remix) - Black Eye Peas (320 kbps) BOOM BOOM POW!

Superfuzz - St Beethoven New Banana (320 kbps) Heavy SebastiAn and Toxic Avenger influences.

And to finish off a lil bonus or rather big...
Just Bleep Me (Satisfaction) - Dada Life Platinum Banana (320 kbps) Dada Life does it again.

I LOVE POP MUSIC

Time for another Bastille Bootleg for your DJ sets, this one's got a remix of everyone's favorite pop song of 2009 mixed with a cool synth poppy electro track, possibly making pop music even poppier.  It's like pulling up to the mountain top with your best girl to enjoy the 1980's Miami skyline.  Enjoy:
