(Click flyer for Facebook event) Steve Aoki is back in the GTA. Seeing him play out in Burlington at the end of last year was definitely worth the trip out. Pase Rock, rocked my socks on Halloween at the Cobrasnake Party @ Wrongbar. I can't believe that these two infamous party rockers are going to be in the same lineup. Definitely looking forward to seeing Aoki crowd surf, get on the mic and just act rowdy. SalaciousSound.com has 2 free tickets to give away to one lucky reader. All you have to do is join our [...]

Treasure Fingers dropped some new tracks on us recently. This guy is a machine. Solid remix after solid remix. This nicely done Diamond Cut remix is full of sidechained compression with some slap bass thrown in for good measure. Check it out. Sidenote: For those into production, if you go to Diamond Cut's Myspace they list everything they are using to produce their music. Diamond Cut - [...]

Diamond Cuts cover of Womack & Womack???s Teardrops. Another perfect example of his deft producing skills and keen ear for a brilliant melody. If you think the original is a gem, then wait till you hear the Treasure Fingers edit, SUPERB! You'll find yourself bobbing and weaving subconsciously like you were in The Matrix. I also threw in a little extra bonus for your melodic ears. Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend!

24 Carat Cuts Just a couple of tracks from last week that I failed to post. Fools Gold recording artist Treasure Fingers dials up yet another smooth and silky vibe with this remix of 'Teardrops' by NYC's Diamond Cut . Also due to the massive response the first Edit received on Hype Machine I also decided to include the other b-side of the Daft Punk White Label boot I got of 'Around The World' Ciao!

Hey guys, I like browsing artists by label since they usually group DJs and producers by style and quality. A-Trak's label Fool's Gold is extremely influencial and contains artists that I profoundly like. First, A-Trak himself who had not produced much recently came up with his remix of Kilometer by Sebastien Tellier. Mr.Winter himself (Busy P) called it remix of the year. I would moderate this statement and say that the remix is very good but is not much of a surprise comming from one of the best DJ in the world. [...]

Hotlanta's Ashley Jones (Treasure Fingers) is making quite a name for himself these days. Check out the recent Q&A he did with Killabeez where he chats about his studio setup, upcoming plans and more. Looking forward to seeing how the live show he mentions materializes after his full length hits the streets. In the meantime, here is a remix he supposedly knocked out on a recent flight for Diamond Cut 's cover of Womack & Womack's "Teardrops" to wet your appetite. Diamond Cut - Teardrops (Treasure Fingers [...]

we haven't had a treasure fingers post on here in a while, but it's not for a lack of love. he's a busy guy and if you take a look at his myspace sched, its choc full of tour dates and upcoming releases. maybe the only time he can squeeze in some production time is in airports and planes. 6 hour plane rides may not be so bad after all, haha. apparently he just cranked this edit out on the plane the other day. hey, i'm not mad at filters to pump up the disco feel.

I defy you to find a picture of a happier rabbit. Seriously, this shit makes me want to quit my job, say goodbye to all my friends, and become one. Then I'd move out of home and into some kickass meadow, where I'd run around all day and bite things. That grass looks delicious. Umm, music… Obviously when you're on holidays, the music doesn't stop. So here are a few tracks that cropped up in the last week or so for those of you who missed them because you were too busy inhaling champagne, frolicking on [...]

the buffetlibre djs did it again and just released 'rewind 2', the second installment in their compilation featuring a ton of today's artists covering or remixing their favorite songs from back in the days. while i already heard from quite some bloggers that they have got mixed emotions about this release, i had a quick scan through the 89 tracks (!) and found some that you should definitely hear. first up, on the more hard hitting side of things, we've got ac slater remixing the legendary 'everybody in the place' by the prodigy [...]

Finally after long awaited time the Guys from Buffet Libre have released their second instalment of Rewind, in which they've asked different artist to remake or remix different songs; unlike their first instalment this one goes farther than the 80's , it also dabbles around the late 70's and early 90's (ergo glory to the 80's complete).

The project consists of 70 songs from the 70s , 80s and 90s reimagined by some of today's best underground/blog artists. Go here to download the whole thing. A few of my favorites are below.

With all the time I spend celebrating the works of various Australian producers, I sometimes overlook the gems coming from producers right here in the good 'ol US of A. New York producer Diamond Cut was one of those overlooked American gems until two weeks ago. With the four remixes below, her* bass driven synth melodies have ignited my musical patriotism. What is even more refreshing is the artists Diamond Cut chooses to remix. I admit to never hearing any work from any of the artists below before being introduced [...]

Well, I just discovered a boat load of electro tracks that I love so I thought I'd share the wealth. No real rhyme or reason to them, you'll probably recognize most of the artists from other posts. It still amazes me sometimes how much music is out there on blogs and how much of it I haven't heard. There's definitely a core group of blogs that release songs that trickle down to other blogs. As a result, many have the same songs at the same time making it kind of monotonous. It definitely makes you wonder how free blogs are [...]

photos courtesy of g.originals After browsing thru past posts in my blog, I began to notice something... that is I spend a lot of my time posting tracks that I receive from new bands and artists thru my inbox. And believe you me, I'm grateful for that and hope that that provides them positive exposure... but I sometimes feel that I can stray away from why I started this blog in the first place: to spread some of my favorite songs out for the world to hear. Hell, there [...]
