As one of the scene's most coveted and unpredictable talents, Dirty Dutch ringleader Chuckie has always kept fans wondering what's next when he's mixing behind the decks or working diligently in the studio. Well, wonder no more. The Dutch aficionado has decided to hand out a few of his latest gems through his SoundCloud , including a wild electro/rock collaboration with Betatraxx and Slash that bridges the gap between contemporary electro and good ol' rock and roll. First up, Chuckie works his magic with Aviation High , the first single off [...]
Ultra Music Festival is officially over but its 6-day run was full of unforgettable surprises and guest appearances. One such unexpected collaboration came when Dutch phenom, Chuckie , invited Slash - ex Guns N' Roses guitarist - and label mate Betatraxx to premiere their new track live on stage. "Rocktronica" is a unique fusion of rock and electronic music unlike anything they've released as individual artists and Chuckie hopes that the collaboration will act as catalyst for the emergence of a new sound. Incorporation of live instruments (outside the live stage) emerged as a festival theme this year [...]

Alt-J 's An Awesome Wave has received a boost since winning the Mercury Music Prize and in turn I've noticed the band's music being used a lot on British television and them being played a little more on the Radio. Good on 'em. Today we get to enjoy a remix of their track "Fitzpleasure" from Los Angeles-based producer Betatraxx who changes the song dramtically into a dance worthy club track.

Alt-J (∆)'s incredible first major release An Awesome Wave is making them one of the most talked about acts of 2012.

Today, only a couple hours after their North American tour dates were released, alt-J unveiled a daunting remix of "Fitzpleasure" conjured up by LA DJ BetaTraxx. Changing tempos and overall feel of the song makes this remix stand out over other remixes of the song. The heavy use of reverb had me [...]

Over the last year, LA based producer Betatraxx morphed from an underground California DJ into an internationally known producer. Following his performance at the infamous ADE , Betatraxx is back on the decks to give listeners a brand new blazing remix. “Cholla” was originally constructed by Welsh alternative-rock band The Joy Formidable for their approaching sophomore album Wolf’s Law , but here Betatraxx transforms the indie sing-along into a plunging bass-riff rework. He takes Ritzy Bryn’s lead vocals and slows down the rhythm before turning up the electro flavor creating a reconstruction [...]
Bigbeat Records' rising star Betatraxx has made a name for himself with his fantastic heavy-electro remixes. Today he dropped his Mercury EP which features four brand new original productions. Not familiar with Betatraxx? Luckily for you he has given us an exclusive minimix of the EP so you can hear what he's all about in just over three minutes of high-energy music. Our favorite track on the Mercury EP has to be his collaboration with Morten Breum titled "Get Static." Some of you will recognize this track from Morten's special Axis guest mix where he previewed it [...]
After an auspicious world debut during Morten Breum's interview with Electronic Spotlight , the Dane's collaboration with fellow LA based producer BetaTraxx 'Get Static' is finally available for general public consumption and purchase. You're going to want to get your grubby hands on this addictive track, which is melodic, bass heavy, techno infused and electro inflected, all wrapped up into one highly pleasing package. Breum is known for his progressive (not big room progressive, like Eric Prydz progressive) and BetaTraxx is known for his techno, so with these two masterminds in the studio 'Get Static' [...]

The boys have been destroying the dance floors of Ibiza all summer and will surely be unleashing a wild energy upon the bass hungry crowd.

It is no secret that Chuckie has taken new producers under his wing for the next generation of dirty Dutch, introducing us to Glowinthedark with " Electro Dude ," and on deck is Betatraxx. The up-and-comer from Los Angeles has remixed Christina Perri's "Arms," turning beautiful vocals into a dubby ride. Not what you would expect from the Dirty Dutch camp, but unique nonetheless - Betatraxx's remix of "Arms" is currently available on Beatport. Purchase: Beatport
No sooner could we blink an eye did the Fun. remixes come blazing out from DJs all over the world. "We Are Young" was #1 on the iTunes downloads a week or so ago, but that's not why we're posting it here. You see, our draw to Nate Ruess because of his Snails EP and his Dog Problems back in 2006-2007. In fact, we even saw him perform... amazing how far he's come. It's a great thing to see an artist such as Nate rise to stardom. All of that aside, we know you're keen to new remixes [...]
How does a producer go from being underrated and overlooked, to becoming one of the most talked about artists in EDM overnight? Besides being a great producer (obviously) one could team up with a major player in the industry like say...I dunno... Chuckie with his Dirty Dutch Records , and drop an absolutely bangin' FREE EP filled with bootlegs of classic EDM tracks. This is precisely what blog favorite Betatraxx has done and now it's time for him to sit back while the blogs blast his Bootleg EP across the [...]

We were starting to wonder when we would hear back from Betatraxx , not having seen any releases for quite some time now. Turns out, Tim Nelson, one of the most promising producers of 2010 has been hard at work. Touring, creating remixes for a couple of big names indie artists (to which we are not sure if we can disclose yet), producing an EP, and not to mention working with Dirty Dutch and Atlantic Big Beat for a handful of new releases. A lot of things happening for our friend, and deservingly so. Today he [...]
If you’ve spent any time partying in San Francisco in the last year and you don’t know who Realboy is, your idea of partying probably involves something along the lines of fruit punch and a DJ who really likes to play “Get Low.” They may be the new kids on the block, but in the last year, Realboy has cemented itself as a force to be reckoned with in the Bay Area electro party scene. This year Realboy, the DJing duo made up of Austin Jacobsen and Daniel Gomez, have started their own record label, released their debut EP and [...]

July was the month I immersed myself in work - and not the academic kind. Three and a half weeks working nightshifts does something to a person, and left me feeling completely exhausted. With all proceeds going towards my upcoming trip to Thailand, I worked every hour I could to the detriment of my social life and as a result the Summer has well and truly passed me by. However it wasn't all bad. I squeezed in a short trip to Spain and became obsessed with the brilliant and thoroughly addictive Nip/Tuck, and although my photo yield so [...]
Tweet So it’s my boy El Guapo’s Bday, it’s Cinco de Mayo, and he’s about to graduate… if this isn’t him by the end of the day, we might have to officially change his name to El Soft-O Here’s a couple tracks and videos dedicated to my boy (pause), and make sure you all you P&Bers wish him a Happy Bday! Sincerely, TeeFizz PS: I apologize for the lack of new music lately, but [...]
A good producer friend of mine, Etnik , recently sent over his new remix of Gesaffelstein 's Variations and boy is it banging. Etnik 's 303 Acid synth sounds are definitely a lot tougher than the original, albeit being not as polished. I have to give the man props just for even attempting to remix such an epic and nearly perfect tune. He did a fantastic job and the world needs to know about it. Check out Etnik 's souncloud here for more of his productions. Gesaffelstein [...]
