TOP 10 Tracks of 2009 (in no particular order) 1. Tiga - What You Need (The Proxy Remix) -Proxy stands atop this list for a reason. This is a list of my personal favorites, with no consideration of anything besides what I was feeling the most this past year. Proxy is the ace in the deck - I bumped a shitty bootleg of this tune for a long time and instantly fell in love with it. @GetMeGingy linked me a horrible quality youtube video of Proxy dropping it live long [...]
Slowly but surely I'm becoming a fan of Dubstep. While the big names like Rusko and Caspa get me going on a big system at a club, I enjoy the mellow side of the genre more when I'm at home. Recently I found a remix of Blue Foundation's 'Eyes On Fire' by Toronto production duo Zeds Dead . To me, this is just about as good as it gets. It has some really nice female vocals and a chilled out, yet still grimy beat. I've been listening to this on repeat the last few days. [...]
Blue Foundation is a group of musicians originating from Denmark and they have recently gained a lot of popularity with their tune "Eyes on Fire" from the Twilight soundtrack. I was originally put on to the Zeds Dead remix when our friends over at Salacious Sound featured the Toronto duo on their blog. Instantly I fell in love with the remix and now recently they are getting some HUGE global recognition for the track as it was featured on Skream's Nov.11th edition of his popular "Stella Sessions". Recently the track was remixed again [...]
If you don't know Zeds Dead by now, you must be under a fuckin rock musically. From opening up for: Jack Beats, Kill the Noise, 12th Planet, Felix Cartal, and Bombaman to their MONSTER remix of Barletta's "Panther" that dropped mid summer on Intellegenix, these guys have been non-stop blowing up everything they touch. That's a large feat considering they kicked things off as a group at the beginning of the summer... But it doesn't stop there. Now Hooks and DC have yet another accomplishment to be proud of. Their remix of Blue Foundation's [...]
DC and Hooks are ZEDS DEAD. They first hooked up in 2004 and formed Mass Productions, a hiphop outfit that catered to the digging in the crates sampling school of hiphop. In the summer of 2009, the two launched their second collaboration - ZEDS DEAD - turning up the bpm and aiming the bass-lines at [...]
Good morning kiddos, here are some tunes that have been rocking my inbox lately: First in line is BUL!M!ATRON 's latest track, Cuz Dats Where Da Party At - a massive track featuring simple vocals and a sick synth that will tear dancefloors all over the world to pieces. BUL!M!ATRON - Cuz Dats Where Da Party At! Next one is quite an intelligent mash-up: The vocals of I-Robot's Frau [...]

saturdays are one funny size. they aren't the beginning of anything - nor the end of anything, but saturdays just fumble around somewhere in between. still, we care so deeply for them. i've used this saturday musing about the meaning of the word: silence it has turned out to be one of the better days to wonder. where my day-to-day life normally has everything in it but silence, this particular saturday i've really been haunted but the noisy silence all day. one of the ways to explore silence [...]

Waking up with the sun shining and this on the radio. Only thing missing now is a cup of coffee! + Enemy Every morning when eating breakfast the radio is on, and from time to time it does happen that some really fine stuff is aired, thus helping to make the start of the day a good one. The "On the radio this morning" posts are my humble attempt to make your start a good one as well!
Spätestens nach ihrer atemberaubenden Performance letztes Jahr in Kolding sind Blue Foundation ganz weit oben in meiner Präferenzenliste gelandet. Die dänische Band zaubert einen großartigen Mix aus Shoegaze, Indiepop, TripHop und was weiß ich noch allem aus dem Hut. Nun hat Tobias Wilner , einer der Songschreiber der Band, mit Ghost Society ein Nebenprojekt am Start, das sich in keinster Weise hinter Blue Foundation verstecken muss. Wieder wird zwischen wabernden Gitarrenwänden und poppigen Melodien hin- und her gependelt, dass es eine Freude ist. (Danke an Ramona für den Tipp!) [...]
One thing I could always spend my day doing and never feel like I've wasted any time is watching movies. Over the past two days I've seen Milk, Twilight (finally), The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and Bedtime Stories (random, I know). Here are a few songs from the movies to keep me & you busy. Debussy - Clair de Lune (Twilight) [alt link] Black Ghosts - Full Moon (Twilight) [alt link] [...]
I wanted to call this the "slow jam" list...but it's hardly R&B inspired. This is about the "heartfelt" songs of the year. The songs convey a message to the heart. I can't really explain each song (partly b/c I just don't know how to), but also because it's hard to go into detail about slow songs. It's a subjective experience. This list goes all across the board, it doesn't matter what genre. I liked these songs for several reasons: 1) The vocals. 2) The lyrics. 3)The melody. 4) The mood. [...]
