Something just aint right about those eyes.

Walking Away (Mode CK Remix) - Chris Kaeser, Jonathan Mendelsohn (Golden Banana)
One of the top Progressive House tracks right now, doing extremely well on Beatport.  Driving and energetic, definitely more on the Housey side.  Pretty sure Mode CK = Chris Kaeser.


Feelin' (Crazibiza Remix) - Muzzaik (Silver Banana)
Crazibiza is just killing it.  House music!

Lady (Original Mix 2011) - Yohanne Simon Twill
Just gonna say, this is the furthest thing from an original mix there is.  But it is a very nicely revamped version of one of the greatest House tracks of all time to fit today's production standards.

Back In The Bongo (BEAT Salad DJ Tool) - Mc $pyda vs. Deekline & Solo ft. Manu Chao
Yes, you read it correctly.  God this must just kill when played live.

Bro Code - Highbloo
Techno techno techno techno techno

Sexy Party (Terravita Remix) - Tremourz, J.Rabbit
Oh my god, it's a Sexy Party!  Starts Dubstep, turns into Drumstep.

Sandungueo - Munchi
MOOMBAHTON!

Get Sucked (Original Mix) - Umek
TECHNOTECHONETCENTCHETCENCO

Cut Throat (Original Mix) - Figure
Some DnB / Drumstep for ya'll

Freaks & Geeks - Childish Gambino
Wait, Rap music?  Cheers to gLAdiator for the rec on this one.  Adele sample, surprisingly, and much better than Adele.

Fenaton 2011 (Original Mix) - Umek (Golden Banana)

Save The World (Style Of Eye & Carli Remix) - Swedish House Mafia feat. John Martin
Unfortunately just not as good as the Alesso remix, but still pretty awesome.

Ride Of Life (Belocca Bright Dub) - Hardsoul feat. Chappell
House on the super loungey side.

Anybody Out There (Friction & K-Tee Remix) - BCee & S.P.Y.
Pretty DnB

Promises (Marco V Remix) - Andain
Tech Trance for y'all

Zzafrika (Clouds Remix) - ZZT
Electro Techno with super whiney synths.

I Wanna Be Your Dog (Big Room Mix) - Swanky Tunes & Hard Rock Sofa
Super Big Room Electro House, very much on the Prog side.

Program - Noisia & Phace
Dat crazy DnB that makes you feel as if you've fallen into a new realm of existence.

Stronger (Original Mix) - Eddie Thoneick & Erick Morillo feat. Shawnee Taylor
HUGE House track with one of the most dancey lead drum things I've ever heard.


Speaking of serial killers, wunderkind and AwB homie Flammenwerfer released tracks that one can now see are slaying crowds across the world:

On The Edge (Original Mix) - Umek, Christian Cambas (Silver Banana)

Don't be surprised by the first section, the Electro House drop comes from nowhere and KILLS.

Progressive House remake of a classic tune.

Necessary Activity (Original Mix) - Lish, Andrea Bertolini
Tech House on the Techy side.

Thierry Henry


Kickin balls like a boss.  I can't believe he plays for the New York Redbulls...

-M

Ancova (Dry Edit) - Mumbai Science (GOLDEN BANANA)
So ready to hear this dropped at HARD this spring.  Tech House, pure rave.


Hungry Pony (Original Mix) - Darwin & Backwall (Silver Banana)
In my world, everyone's a pony, and they all eat rainbows, and poop butterflies.  +100 Bastille Love and Admiration Points if you know what the vocal sample is from.

Flash (Nicky Romero Remix) - Green Velvet
My friend actually begged me to ID this track after he heard Sebastian Ingrosso drop it at Webster Hall.

White Noise Red Meat (Bassjackers Remix) - Dada Life
Definitely the best remix of this track.  Electro House.

Seven Nation Army (The Glitch Mob Remix) - The White Stripes
AWESOME remix, I love getting emails from these guys.  They're very good about giving away free music, and this more fantastic work from them.

Amphetamine (Umek Remix) - Drax, Thomas P Heckmann, Drax Ltd II
Techno from one of the best.  Kinda Trancey line.

On the Loose (Spektre Remix) - Christian Cambas
More Techno from another one of the best.  This one's way more relaxed than usual.

Toyg (Manuel De La Mare Edit) - The Old Young Guy
Tech House, kinda dark/tribal feel.

Tech House with a tribal feel.

Patience (HULK Remix) - Nas & Damian Marley

Edinson Cavani


OLESDOIT

-M

On My Own (Burns ESM Remix) - Yasmin (GOLDEN BANANA)
Organ House is the bomb.  This one's got some Dutch flavor in it, but it's House to the core.  Also, SUPERB vocal chopping.

Original Challenge (Original Mix) - Umek & Tomy DeClerque (Silver Banana)
This one's doing pretty well on the Beatport charts.  Techy track with an Italo Disco feel to it.  Planning on dropping this next gig.

Rave O Bitch Up (Tristan Garner Bootleg) - David Tort Vs Prodigy VS Max Vangeli & An21 (Silver Banana)
It's surprising how many big DJs drop bootlegs in their sets.  I'm definitely planning on dropping this one though.

Till The Light Comes - Solila
Some Nu Disco for you classy folk.

Blockhead (Hey Today! Remix) - Punks Jump Up
Electro Techno?  I think I mislabeled this one in my iTunes, but oh well.  Hey Today! have been murdering every remix they do.

On the Loose (Original Mix) - Christian Cambas
Techno rules.  I just hope that the blog world will open up to this style of Minimal Techno now that a lot of the former Electro guys are getting techier.

Call My Name feat. Nadia Ali (Spencer & Hill Remix) - Sultan, Ned Shepard, Nadia Ali
Electrogressive?  Pretty track with an edge.  Top notch as you should expect from these guys.

Sun Splash - Outart
Some more relaxed Techno, much more groovy/tribal.  Definitely perfect for the right setting, but I wouldn't drop this at a college.  Definitely would for a bar or something.

Rude Boy (Union Vocal Version) - Zeds Dead & Omar Linx
Dubstep --> Drum & Bass.  Great for sets that want to transition from those genres.

One More Time (Daft Punk & Stardust Rework) - Arno Cost
Great bootleg, on the proggy side.  Excellent to play some Big Room style and have everyone sing along / cheer.

omg...



Kobe who?
It's ok, go ahead and watch it again.

I want to say that they're the best Techno out there right now.  It's a pretty bold claim, and we all tend to make big sweeping statements like that daily.  But like, they're the best.

Are you ready?

Electro House, great track.  If your read this blog, you probably know what to expect from these guys anyways.

House, awesome, disco vibes.  Big Room style too.  I also enjoy the title, because to Bastille, Rollin' Deep means blasting intimidating Techno or extremely abrasive Dubstep while driving and ever breaking eye contact with the person in the car / walking next to you.

Cool Electro House track from an up and comer I discovered from Massachusetts.  Definitely grab this one.  Also be sure to check out his SOUNDCLOUD.

Massive Progressive House track, reminiscent of Pryda.  This also feels like it could have been in Tron.

Rave House.  I don't really know how to classify this sort of stuff.  It's got that Dutchy boom ba dum ba boom thing, and it's minimal and super dancey.  This is totally something Steve Angello would drop.

For the Techno heads out there.

Because somebody always wants Dubstep (you know who you are).

A gem from the Ghost Busters 2 soundtrack.  Cheers to gLAdiator for this one.

Speaking of gLAdiator, here's a sick Dubstep mix from one of their members that dropped today:

Detective Dale Cooper


He is the man.  If you don't know him, you should.

-M

Rave 'N' Roll (Original Mix) - Steve Angello
HUGE track, massive drop.  Tech House?

Take Me High - Dillon Francis
Big Dubstep track that got blogged a shit ton.  I think he's from Los Angeles, w00t.

D.T.M. - TEAM BANZAI
Heavy Electro track, unique.  Got introduced to these guys from Ilictronix.

Homeless (Canblaster Remix) - Style Of Eye & Slagsmålsklubben
Awesome French Tech House.

Miami 2 Ibiza (Sander van Doorn Remix) - Swedish House Mafia vs. Tinie Tempah (Removed)
Techy techy techy.

Mixtape (Umek Remix) - Sebastien Leger
Tech House, which is odd for him since he usually just makes straight Tech.  If you're confused between the difference between Tech House and Techno, compare this to his other tracks.

The Light - Ninetynine
More of that Daftwho? style Electro.  Listening to this makes strobes go off in my mind.

Hello (Bass Kleph Remix) - The Potbelleez
Tech House.

Art Students Zipped

P.S.  This post is dedicated to Dirty Dumbo, everyone's favorite Deadmau5 and Techno h8er.  That said, he's a pretty dope Los Angeles based DJ that you guys should check out, you'll be seeing his new mix up here pretty soon along with one from Ramses and Yea Mann.

The Way Umek Me Feel


Umek is a Minimal Techno DJ/producer from Solvenia that I've been wanting to check out for a while and finally got the energy to do so. Now, I very much enjoy my Minimal Techno, but it's definitely not for everyone, and for those of you who are unfamiliar with guys like Dubfire and Richie Hawtin, you may not enjoy this at all. It's very much an acquired taste, but I love this shit, it's in the running for the best rave music out there. But, if you've been enjoying the more minimal sounds coming from the Dutch, then you should definitely give this a try. But where the Minimal House is funky/tribal, this stuff is cold/robotic.

-M

Karmient (Umek Remix) - Dyno
So awesome. The melody is just so damn catchy.

Senderoff (Umek Remix) - Fergie
Be careful driving after listening to this song, because I think it might affect your sobriety. And no, you're definitely thinking of the wrong Fergie, since this one also makes Minimal Techno and will be featured on here soon enough.

Collection Time! (10 Tracks). I was only able to find 10 tracks of him this time, but I'm sure there will be a catch up post on him eventually with some more tracks.

Umek Collection (All In One Zip)


Umek Collection (By Track)

BONUS:
Mirror Error (Das Glow Remix) - The Faint
Woah, some weird shit. Jumpman will definitely flip a shit over this. Hope his first day of college was awesome. If we have any readers from Bard college, you should definitely go find him and say what up from us.
