![Tiga – The Picture EP [Crosstown Rebels]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4423060_lg.jpg)
For the momentous Crosstown Rebels #100, one of electronic music’s great innovators makes his long-awaited comeback as Tiga . The Montreal avant-gardist’s first original work in four years ‘ The Picture ’ is big, bad and heavy in every sense. Factor in an outstanding remix of ‘ Pleasure From The Bass ’ from wonder boy Subb-an and you have a very special landmark release indeed.

ENFIN ! Le premier mot qui m'est venu à l'esprit en voyant que Boys Noize avait mis sur son Soundcloud une version complète de XTC . Un an qu'on l'attend, à se re-regarder les images du début de set du producteur allemand au Berlin Festival de septembre 2011. Une techno presque acid au début, dansante, pour une seconde partie surpuissante, et la surprise est qu'une date est annoncée : le 6 août, pour une sortie en tant que single qui sortira bien évidemment sur Boys Noize Rec , avec un remix de MMM [...]

There are DJs that are heavily tied to styles, people who go on to become figures synonymous with a certain sound or a particular approach to mixing; and then there are DJ’s DJs – a different breed of people who manage to make the whole process of blending records from disparate genres look (and sound) seamless. Often, it’s not just about beat matching perfectly, it’s as much about capturing a mood and evolving it through your record selections as it is locking on to a consistent rhythm and that’s something that Streatham bred DJ, Steve Bishop, has proven himself to [...]

Enfin une version écoutable d'une des nouvelles tracks de Nicky Romero . On le disait il y a quelques jours ici, mais le producteur hollandais est infatigable, et ne s'arrête jamais de produire. Entendue dans pas mal de festivals depuis juillet, elle a été joué par Alesso au début de son set à Tomorrowland (d'où est tirée cette version). Il prouve encore son habilité pour pondre un monstre avec ses basses typiques qui résonnent, mélangées à un synthé de house progressive à la mélodie agressive et un sample (peu original je dois dire) de Coldplay. La seconde [...]

Le duo français frappe à nouveau avec cet edit pour Strobe de Deadmau5 . Une intro orchestrale longue et puissante, à en croire qu'il ne se passera rien, puis vient cette accélération, une montée soudaine, pour un drop qui l'est également. Un drop dubstep lent, mais lui aussi très puissant, où le sound design d' Alesia prouve encore une fois son efficacité. A saisir en téléchargement libre via Soundcloud ci-dessous !

Accustomed to soundtracking late night sunsets and early morning sunrises, Footprintz AKA Clarian North and Addy Weitzman are school friends from Montreal influenced by the likes of Ultravox, Depeche Mode, 80s B-movies and a hefty dose of artistic licence.
