Let The Children Techno!

If you had any doubt left in your mind that every Electro act east of the Atlantic hasn't got their eyes set on Techno, let this cast the final light.  Ed Banger climbs out of the Abyss in order to join forces with favorites from Boys Noize Records, Turbo, Institubes, and Brainfeeder (I know, crazy) to bring you a brand new compilation.  After a thorough listen, the album actually caught me by surprise since the overall feeling is much more relaxed than I anticipated as well asvery hit and miss.  That said, there are some real gems on this sucker and I will always have a hard on for anything with artwork by So Me.  Regardless, we can all just be thankful that while DSL made the cover, they most certainly didn't make the compilation.

Anagogue (Original Mix) - Brodinski & Tony Senghore (Golden Banana)
Brodinski is KILLING it right now.  This is probably my favorite from the comp.

Shades Of Black (Original Mix) - Breakbot (Silver Banana)
Breakbot doing what he does best, and that of course is bringing the Disco.

Caravan Of Delight (Original Mix) - Flying Lotus
The odd one out on the album.  Who cares, the man makes art.

Let The Children Techno
Grab the whole compilation for more tracks by other awesome guys like Siriusmo, Gesaffelstein, Skream, Duke Dumont, Zombie Nation, Djedjotronic...

Also read the review from Ilictronix, where we disagree over a lot.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to bring you a message from Kevin Saunderson.  Recently, a group called Supernova heavily sampled his track The Sound in their track Beat Me Back (posted by me HERE).  You can listen to the orignal below, and click on the link to read his response.

Obscure Video Game Character #7

I'm going to assume that nobody is going to get #6, so the answer was Detective Carla Valenti from the game Indigo Prophecy.  It was a great idea for a game, but poorly executed.  Anyways, bad ass #7 is right up thur, and I'm offering +500 Bastille Love and Admiration Points for the first to the punch.

I Look To You (ft Kimbra) - Miami Horror (GOLDEN BANANA)
This is exactly what we need to bring back French House.  Its just like the best disco, pop, whatever that you've ever heard.  The bassline is killer.

Baby I'm Yours feat. IRFANE - Breakbot (Golden Banana)
Yup, another one.  I figured I had to include the other great jam of recent.  Which of these is better?

Baby I'm Yours (Aeroplane Remix) - Breakbot
Good remix.


Smack My Bitch Up (Sub Focus Remix) - The Prodigy (Silver Banana)
And now for something completely different.  DnB ftw.

Prince (Bassnectar Remix) - Deftones
Or maybe Dubstep ftw?

U Don't Like Me (South Rakkas Crew Remix) - Diplo & Lil Jon
Not sure if you'd call this Dubstep, but its the right tempo and would fit into a Dubstep set.

Love You Better (Bass Kleph Remix) - Crazy White Boy
This is AwB.  There's gotta be something techy in every post.  So why not this awesome Tech House jam.

No Soul (Bodybangers Remix) - Andrew Spencer & Daniel Slam
And some Dutch House to finish off.

Hard Summer Review

So Hard Summer ended up being awesome. You had like all those raver kids, some of those sketchy ass peeps, and those normal people who just look like they don't know what they got themselves into. All in all the whole atmosphere was less threatening and I really did like the venue + it was less crowded so I could get my groove on. Oh and there was better food? Is that a plus.

But yo it was tight cause everythin went well and it didn't get shut down like last year. Bitches everywhere just goin crazy (both girl and boy) and it was just like people enjoyin the music. There was some fun shit, nothin bad so here are just some o the best.

Good Job Hard you made one of the better events i've been to in a long while.

Lovelight (Soulwax remix) by Robbie WIlliams

2. Erol Alkan,

What the fuck else does he really do? He's got some good shit I guess but like he's not up there for "producer of the year" but he's a damn fine dj, playin shit that we all liked and just keepin it real. Definitely worth seeing. I like it, you like it, he likes it, she likes it, we like it, you all like it, they like it.


Lemonade (original Mix) by Boys Noize and Erol Alkan

3. Breakbot,

This dude is a sick ass dj, just get one of his mixes. I mean just incredible. I would love to see him again, I wish he had played later, he was killin it with such an early time slot, I can't even imagine what would have happened if he had been later. SHit would have gone crazy.


Aerius Light (Breakbot Remix) by Data


4. Flying Lotus

I mean he's both a sick ass person and sick ass dj. LA REPRESENT. Love this dude, plus he kills it every time. Los Angeles Legend, the one and only fly lo. Everything he does turns to gold. Don't miss this dude.

Some of my fav Nightcall Remixes:


Nightcall (Breakbot remix)- Kavinsky Another beautiful tune by Breakbot, very chilled and makes me feel like i was in the 70s/80s for real!Golden Banana


Nightcall (The Chaotic Good Remix)- Kavinsky TCG are a DJ Duo from the US that are still a bit unknown to the public. Although they haven't released an EP yet!(to my knowledge at least) their remixes of nightcall and Kickdrums by Felix da Housecat show promise that this duo has potential to release some really gud shit in the near futur!


Nightcall (MMMathias Remix)- Kavinsky If you don't know who this guy then you're seriously missing out....Best unknown known producer banana


Nightcall (The Girls Can Hear Us Remix) A dirtier alternative to the previous 3 remixes... who are the
The Girls Can Hear Usyou ask?

Bonus:

These are from his previous EP

Testarossa Overdrive (SebastiAN remix)- KavinskyEpic Banana because I love everything that this guy edits remixes and produces!


Testarossa Autodrive (Mr Oizo Remix)- Kavinsky Epic Banana this Guy needs no intro, no description, no explanation, if you're in the dirty electro scene this guy probably already has your respect

I'm Simple P

Who's that bitch?

 

  

Hot damn I'm back kids and this time it gets dirty. My friend the other day asked me to make him a good playlist he could play during sex and to mix it for him. Unfortunately I just don't have time right now to mix it for him, but I'll put up the playlist I made anyways. Obviously there will be disagreements on whether a song is sexy, but always try and remember that some of the harder stuff is needed to just make it raunchy as fuck. 

His prerequisites were that he needed a more hardcore song around every 15 min when he would make the girl finish, with his estimated length of time being around 45 minutes (I guess he lasts a while). So i structured it in that way, ranging from the sexy prog, those walking basslines, and just plain crazy stuff, hope you guys enjoy. But just because most guys don't last that long I put the baller songs up top, and the more chill songs near the bottom when you kinda just need to chill.

And you know, if you finish way before the playlist is over (it is an hour long) then just pause and pick up the pace a little later on the night, or even in the morning (one of my personal favorites). Don't feel bad, you're still a G, you just got ass.

Also remember that this playlist doesn't necessarily need to be when shit's going down, sex usually comes after a little whiles with some patience, this could speed it along for you guys who just hate that interim shit.

Many of these songs have already been posted in those "best of" posts, but here is the playlist anyways IN ORDER

-J

P.S. Avicii remix of we are is in the zip, but I don't want it in the playlist.

Tea Leaf Dancers by Flying Lotus, Start it off slow and smooth. Probably the sexiest song on this playlist.

Out There Ft. Basto by John Dahlback, I've raved about this one before. So cheesy, get a good laugh out of it, but the pace is starting to pick up. "I don't know where to go, how to find you, you could be anywhere."

Move for Me by Deadmau5 and Kaskade, do I need to explain?

Now it's getting hot and heavy:

Flashback (Goldie Remix) by Calvin Harris, I put this song on and David was just like this need to be on it. "I'm fighting for my life" "This is like all the things you can fit inside a memory". Sounds like sexy, right?  It's gettin rough......

Heartbreaker (Woflgang Gartner Remix) by MSTRKRFT feat. John Legend, Love this song. Has both that sexy element, because John Legend's voice in this is just so sexy and smooth. Then Gartner comes in and bring in that rough dirty shit.

Golden Cage (Fred Falke Remix) by The Whitest Boy Alive, slowin it back down, let's bring in that bassssssssss   llllllliiiiiinnnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeee. And if she finished, see this as a victory song.

Make You Mine by Miami Horror, All the worries in your mind let them go and start advancing.

 Last bit for the win, Tiffany got me back in this song.

Everybody (Dabruck and Klein Remix) by Rudenko, This song is intense, and yet the vocals are so sexy. Keepin it real. Simplicity works best. This is like sex on the dancefloor in a song.

And for the slow down period of time:

Embrace (Fred Falke and Miami Horror Remix) by PNAU Feat. Ladyhawke, Another Fred Falke and Miami Horror? Well they just know their shit.

Baby (Breakbot Remix) by PNAU, who didn't expect some breakbot. So smooth.

Everything Zipped.

Keep it safe kids, wouldn't want any electro house babies runnin around.
