As I'm piecing together this weeks mix I'm sitting on the patio at Epoch Coffee it is 80 degrees with a breeze, I have a triple latte and a Camel Light sitting in front of me, all things considered life is good... just one more reason I'm falling in love with Austin at an alarming rate.

Click image to download full album Sounds like: Panda Eyes, Bon Iver, Houses "Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross - White Sun" What's so good? I just came across this beautiful track by Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross . Despite what the name suggests, this is not a combination of two girls, but a moniker for 25-year-old Chicago based producer Dexter Tortiello, a left field signing to Diplo's Mad Decent label. So despite all [...]
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again. (I think I made you up inside my head.) The stars go waltzing out in blue and red, And arbitrary blackness gallops in: [...]
Not familiar with Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross? You will be after hearing his remix of "Original Don," the latest single from Major Lazer . The original was nothing to spit at, but given how complex the track is, it was begging to be remixed. The Mad Decent labelmate responsible for this gem is Dexter Tortoriello , a producer out of Chicago. His take on the track highlights the synth, ups the bass, and peaks with an epic guitar solo. It's somehow darker, and yet it feels perfectly suited to the club. A digital [...]
We already heard the original cut of Major Lazer's comeback track "Original Don" – you likely remember its insane, complex amalgamation of about ten different beats – but remixer Dexter Tortoriello, better known as Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross , has served up a remix of the track that's just as tight and at moments even more dance-floor appropriate.

No Ceremony - Hurtlove ( Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross remix) I saw this video a couple weeks ago, and have been waiting for the download to make everything complete. Dreams were made reality today when RCRDLBL posted the mp3. The video, directed by Dexter Tortoriello himself, is a beautiful companion to this thoughtful remix. The song seems to ebb and flow perfectly, as if drifting in and out of hurt and love. Keep up with Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross : [...]

Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross: Against The Storm Episode 1: New Mixtape: Dawn Golden And Rosy Cross -...
The weather lately has been a little bizarre . September reared its ugly head and Brooklyn got all sorts of chilly, then just a few days ago, it's 80° in the city. Now, my short-wearing will likely extend into November (Michigan blood), but that won't stop the leaves from turning or my appetite for pumpkin pie and football from spiraling out of control. Below is a collection of songs I threw together for the season-changing occasion, but don't expect any jubilant bangers--this October mix is a more somber affair... Citizen [...]
DG & RC turn in this slow burning but uplifting mix of the cagey NO CEREMONY's "HURTLOVE". Also check the sharp little vid the duo did for the remix below. NO CEREMONY/// - HURTLOVE (Dawn Golden and Rosy Cross Remix) NO CEREMONY/// ? ( Official ) Rating 8.4
Mad Decent Block Party I believe it was rock legends (ha!) Loverboy who said, "Everybody's working for the weekend." Well, it looks like we've reached that miraculous part of our week where we can shrug off the fatigue and get ready to party. If you thought the summer festival season ended with Lollapalooza, you'd be wrong. We're talking about Mad Decent's Block Party in Bucktown this Saturday as well as fabulous shows by Birth (last show!), White Mystery , Pretty Good Dance Moves and Tyler Jon Tyler , [...]
Last year 's Block Party was a lot of fun and I don't see why this year would be any different. Much like 2010, our line up is alright as compared to other cities, but at least we get Lunice. I caught his set on Boiler Room a few months back and he was one of the most animated DJs I've ever seen. Absorb this information...

According to Pitchfork, the Chicago lineup will include electronic remix artist Dillon Francis , Dawn Golden & Rosy Cross - the new ambient electropop project from Houses mastermind Dexter Tortoriello, groove rocker Bosco Delrey , Georgia dance rockers Reptar , Montreal samples and synths artist [...]
Pop Quiz : How many doctors do you need to see to find out if you have a broken ankle? Answer : More than 3. How many more? I'm not sure. But the point is that... if it take more than three (including one fucker who's whole job it is to be an expert in reading x-rays), then my faith in their black market of tacos healthcare is as solid as for the debt-ucation system. After all that, I need something rooty to chew on for mental pain relief. And there's nothing [...]
So as many of you know I have been very busy with Military stuff. So I would like to apologize for not posting as much. I have been trying to go through the submissions so that I can make a post. Please be patient and please don't submit multiple times I will get to it. Thanks. I hope everyone has been having a great past couple of weeks. I will be back on the grind in July that is when I'll be done with this stuff and i'll be back 100% so please just hang in there just a tiny [...]
They are not two but one. And that one is Chicago producer Dexter Tortoriello. The project began in Tortoriello's bedroom as an experiment in different recording techniques, and quickly escalated as vocals were added and ideas rounded out. The debut EP, "Blow" was released in April on Mad Decent and it is 6 tracks of sinewy, elastic golden glory. Below is the standout track in "White Sun". Highly recommended.
