Hip Hop and electro go way back. The original genre of electro funk spawned from the pumping beats of all things ghettho - be it hip hop, detroit techno, ghettotech or breakbeat. The sythesis of the looped backing beats of early hip hop and the catchy melodies of Kraftwerk's synth work saw the genesis of electro . Now, however, 'electro' is used as a somewhat vaguer label and regarded as synonymous with a handful of electronic sub genres - whether it's disco, crunchy distortion, a more energetic form of house, crunk, electropop, certain progressions of [...]

Der blev også plads endnu et Das Pop remix, lidt Michael Jackson , og ikke mindst lidt godter fra GRUM og Kidda , som også har [...]

I must admit that the name Hervé was new to me until very recently, when I started digging through some of his remixes. They were alright, no remarks there, but they didn't give me that special something that I usually get from the ultra-amazing ones gives me. Don't get me wrong, they were good, but they weren't mind-blowing. This track is though. When you're in need of something special, a nice collaboration might make your way to the top a little faster. Especially if you choose to work with artists of exceptional quality, and that seems to be the strategy [...]
