Not to pop my own Dracula collar, but I thought last year's Halloween Mixtape was quite solid, from the movies quoted to the sequencing. Not wanting to disappoint my newfound tradition, I felt a little daunted this year... Thanks to a long night and two full bags of candy, I've put together my finest collection of Hallowe'en anthems yet, primed for later tonight or the weekend, wether you're prepping your gory zombie costume or drinking Four Loko to feel like an actual zombie. Citizen Insane's Halloween Mix [...]

New York native, Luca Venezia, aka Drop The Lime, has been throwing out tracks honing in for Trouble & Bass perfecting the unique sounds alongside label mates Udachi and Tomb Crew. You may remember the infamous "Sex Sax" which you can find with other notable tracks from EDC 2011 . A few days ago he gave out another choon to wander around on by The Trashmen. It has "surfin'" in the title, so immediately I was drawn. How painful it has been living so far from the ocean these last few months. The [...]
Last Friday saw Modeselektor bring the noise at The Forum in Kentish Town alongside Siriusmo, Boy 8-Bit and Cooly G as Lovebox presented their nightclub sessions, Bang The Box. We arrived part-way... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

We were saving this interview till we got a bit closer to Identity Festival in Miami but since it's been cancelled once again there's no sense in waiting. Booka Shade is by far one of top favorite mainstreamish electronic acts. I would buy tickets to whatever type of festival just to see them play. I've been a fan for years and got to see them perform at Ultra a few years back... really damn good and never cheesy. They always seem to engage their audience with their on-stage energy and musicianship. Their tracks have always been pristine, tight, [...]
Lovebox presents Bang The Box on Friday 7th October at the HMV Forum in Kentish town with a special lineup – Modeselektor, Siriusmo, Boy 8-Bit and Cooly G (live) all in one night, they're... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

South London's Boy 8-Bit is a relatively unknown (despite getting fanfare from people like Thom Yorke) producer who trades in chirpy, chippy dance floor bangers. Though the moniker came from early in his career, he's since branched out to UK bass, funky and dubstep genres while occasionally referencing retro-electronics. His latest release, July's Madrigal EP, is four songs of Boy 8-Bit doing what he does best, seamlessly blending catchiness with late-nite wobble and John Carpenter, making for some required listening on your next Saturday night.

Gonna make this quick as I've got less than a day to prepare for my travels down to South Florida. Let's start things off with my current addictions: Man is this one a banger... Can't stop playing this one in my sets, sometimes more than once Cicada - Come Together (BeatauCue Remix) Kito & Reija Lee. Just. Don't. Miss... This ones no exception, hits all the right spots. Kito & Reija Lee - Run For [...]

Moombahton is the sound of the summer, and Diplo 's Mad Decent label has definitely been the leader in bringing the genre to the masses. But Mad Decent isn't just about Moombahton, though artist Dillon Francis seems to be the big thing of the moment—the label has also supported plenty of other exciting names in electronic music, ranging from the dubstep of Rusko and Kito & Reija Lee to the reggae-inspired dancehall sounds of Major Lazer to the fidgety 8-bit sounds of Boy 8-Bit, not to mention the rest of the label's awe-inspiring roster.

Boy 8-Bit released his new Madrigal EP a few weeks back. Nialler9 put me on to this one when he posted the video for 'Fire Extinguisher' directed by Irishman Brendan Canty of Feel Good Lost. The EP sees him expand his usual wild electronic glitches, delving into darker aspects of house and techno - floor-oriented fun, fresh and creative electro-house. [...]
If Serge Santiago and Tom Neville are doing a project together with italo disco as the higher goal it can not be bad. Actually it cannot but be incredibly good. Check out the robot video and the amazing remixes Maxxi Soundsystem, Gigi D'Angelos and Boy 8 Bit's remixes. The Gigi D'Angelo one: The Maxxi Soundsystem [...]
