Farewell… Kind of

Farewell… Kind of Quite an important announcement for you guys. Currently I'm sat on a train heading to make my dream happen in London.

Many of you know that I write for The Music Ninja and as of now, I'll be writing solely for the music ninja and stopping give quiche a chance. I'll keep the tracks up so need to worry there - but all my big filthy music finds will now appear over at www.themusicninja.com so do head on over there for [...]

[Indie Electro] Metronomy – The Bay (Erol Alkan's Extended Rework)

[Indie Electro] Metronomy – The Bay (Erol Alkan's Extended Rework) Metronomy have been on my repeat list for SO bloody long now. Their style is more addictive then Kellogs Frosties... yet their indie sound has kept them at bay from appearing on Give Quiche A Chance. However, imagine my absolute joy when hoping over to the Erol Alkan site then seeing the legendary DJ has done an amazing remix of one of my favourite Metronomy tracks! Always nervous when 2 of your favourite artists come together - you really hope they make it work and as the soundcloud waveform loaded I've gotta be honest, I [...]

[French Electro] Daft Punk – Derezzed (Robotaki Remix)

Canada-based producer Robotaki has previously produced some darn right amazing remixes with his latest, Daft Punk - Derezzed, being no exception. Pulling from such 'God-like' influences like Breakbot , Chromeo and Shook , the 20-year-old producer drops nuggets of vintage gold as the track progresses. There has been SO many bad remixes of this track, that to hear one that builds rather than destroys is really refreshing and I'm sure Daft Punk would be happy with this one.

5 Amazing Chill Out Tracks

With me writing sooo much about hard banging tracks, sometimes it's you need some chill out to calm down the storm around you. I thought I'd share with you some of my favourite tracks that usually get me in the mood for a cheeky nap. [Acoustic Chill] First Aid Kit - When I Grow Up (Fever Ray cover) Acoustic music is so bloody hard to get right but when you hear the right song with the right voice, a few shivers fly down your spine and it's creates a moment that's [...]

[French Electro] Pyramid – Hall EP

Ahhh.. bonjour! So we featured the French electro producer Pyramid 's Daft Punk remix last year, but after hearing the tracks off his new EP - I realised you've gotta hear this guy again. Keeping himself tucked away in Lyon and making his EP Hall on Monsieur Adi 's exciting new label Technofavrik and is now available on iTunes & Juno . Pyramid has already had the backing of electro legend Busy P, so you know he's going to be a big. There literally isn't a track I don't like and in my opinion - [...]

[MONSTER Dubstep] Skrillex – Reptile's Theme

[MONSTER Dubstep] Skrillex – Reptile's Theme There's been a lot of dubstep on GQAC recently but hey - I'm just UP for it. This one from the 23 year old dubstep king Skrillex will RIP YOUR FRICKEN FACE OFF! If you've played the new Mortal Kombat game then you may have heard this drop on there along with JFK, Felix Cartal and Run DMT. Skrillex rise to fame has brought with it a lot of haters, but for me - his sound is huge and appeals to more than just the faithfull dubstep crowd. Each track he produces is [...]

[OMG! OMG!] Nero – Guilt

Awwwwwww yeeah. This one is an absolute club banger! There's something about seeing the name Nero next to a track that you know it's going to be a quality track. This one features Alana and the vocals are just PERFECT whilst the drop is utter filth. Bit of background on Nero – it's 2 guys Dan Stephens & Joe Ray… it all kicked off for them around 2008 with their song being "this way" that featured their favouite vocalist - Alana and it became one of the biggest dubstep songs of 2008. Originally coming from a [...]

[Dubstep] 5 MASSIVE tracks from Doctor P

So I was playing through all my Doctor P tracks today, getting my dubstep 'wob wob wob' on whilst still having my breakfast and came to the realisation that I've only ever posted one track of Doctor P's on here. Well that HAS to change, and rather than just one track, I thought I'd treat you to my 5 favourite MASSIVE tracks from the UK dubstep legend. Kicking off with 2 of his most well known tracks that are just relentless - you'll hopefully be well aware of these: Doctor [...]

[Experimental/Electr o] Zombie Nation – Chickflix

[Experimental/Electr o] Zombie Nation – Chickflix So why I'm not sure exactly why I like this, I just know I like it... a lot! Zombie Nation (AKA Florian Senfter) is most known for his debut single in 1999 "Kernkraft 4003, but this track marks his return from a rather quite period. My guess is that Zombie Nation had a week messing with some analogue synthesizers and sampled each cool sound he found, popped it into a rhythm, then realised if he dropped a banging kick in at around 1:15 - he'd have one of the coolest tunes ever! The end result [...]

[MENTAL DUBSTEP] Excision & Liquid Stranger – Get To The Point (Oblivion Remix)

Woah! Lock you grandmother away - Oblivion has created a monster of a track here that'll scare the crap out of her! Throwing more raging, relentless, ripped appart sounds like the ones we heard on his remix for One Republic, 20 year old Oblivion is really starting to master his sound. The start reminds me of queuing up for a ride at Alton Towers Theme Park with the scary theme music - if only the theme parks owners could pop this track on instead! Real name James Vadner, Oblivion hails from Minesota so if you need more filth in your life [...]

Felix Cartal – 'Joker'

Felix Cartal – 'Joker' Canadian born Felix Cartal has released this absolute banger on DIM Mak records, which is climbing the charts on beatport. With a build up long enough to make you think "man this better be worth it"... it drops HARD into some ear piercing electro at around 1min50. So Sky & BBC News stops all coverage on world affairs and goes mental over 30 chavs who have smashed some windows in central london and made a little campfire on regent street - here's a track that could draw your attention away from such riveting news.

[Electro Banger] Wake Up Call (Mustard Pimp Remix)

[Electro Banger] Wake Up Call (Mustard Pimp Remix) I want this song to wake me up every day this week - it's INSANE ! Seriously, if you don't know about the french electro duo of Mustard Pimp then check their Soundcloud out for some seriously heavy mix tapes too. I have had this song on repeat since I first heard it and it gets me more and more and more and more up for it with each listen. Their brand of heavy trashy electro will get you pulling some dangerous dance moves. The original track is by none other then the electro legends of [...]

Deadmau5 has gotten his awesome electro way with rock legends - Foofighters. So where to start... well first off - seeing Foofighters and Deadmau5 side by side made me RIDICULOUSLY excited. Foofighters are one of my favourite rock bands and seeing them recently at the NME Awards was definitely a treat. Add into that Deadmau5 who seems to be pretty busy in the studio right now and you know you've got yourself a winning combo. After [...]

[New] Deadmau5 – Bleed Not that Deadmau5 needs any introduction or extra publicity for that matter, you may well be aware he's released a couple of tracks into the wild through his Soundcloud account. By no coincidence, upon release, the whole Soundcloud site crashed (a mean feat!) and we all had to wait a few hours to hear the classic annalogue styled tones from the Mau5 himself! Most blog are focusing on his track "deep" but his chillwave track Bleed captivates so much more! In a nutshell - it is just pure chilled awesomeness wrapped up and delivered in a [...]

Harmonising guitar, acoustic drums, chunky synths and phat beat techno to end... this is the perfect return . What's wierd is I was listening to the Fist of God and The Looks album reminising about good times when I first started getting into electro. Add onto those albums seeing them live in Manchester a few years back and I can hand on heart say MSTRKFT are one of my favourite artists alive right now! So here it is. It's [...]

[FILTHY DUBSTEP] Zeds Dead & Omar LinX – Rude Boy After hearing a lot of previews on Soundcloud of this track and becoming more excited then I get on the morning of Christmas day... I can honestly say I have been waiting SO long for this track to finally be released. Featured on Kissy Sell Out 's label San City High, Canadian duo Zeds Dead released this track Rude Boy with no vocals while a go, but then Omar Linx who also featured on their track "Out For Blood", put his perfectly weighted vocals onto it. Result = an instant favourite track of [...]

[DIRTY Electro] Miles Dyson – i Tune

[DIRTY Electro] Miles Dyson – i Tune Yesterday, after reading how to make the perfect fried eggs, I attempted to make eggs room temperature by putting 2 in my pocket to warm up (standard approach). This song German boy Miles Dyson came on and little dance around the room became necessary; needless to say it ended exactly how you think it did... and yep it went there (nice!). Fortunately my mood was too good to be spoilt by a couple of eggs and then turned to realisation that this track hasn't even been featured on GQAC. So not to keep it from you, share in this [...]
