Mikix The Cat makes some fucking huge tracks, something unsurprising from a guy who is signed to two of the most impressive labels in electronic music: Trouble and Bass and Sound Pellegrino (as Momma's Boy ). Well the man apparently stole the show at The Music People's recent Boys Noize Records night in Australia, and is continuing to prove that he is truly one of the standout producers [...]

I was about to go asleep until this happened... Look out for the forthcoming 'Jeffer Remixes' EP, which will drop on the 16th of October and will include remixes from Modeselektor and Para One . Boys Noize - Jeffer (Para One Remix) [YSI]
Village Fair , the largest music festival in the Central West (NSW), returns in 2009 with an impressive line up marking the festival’s 35th birthday. Organised by students of CSU in Bathurst, this year’s bill sees the likes of Modular’s psychedelic synth pop act Van She , as well as Kid Confucius , Purple Sneakers DJs , Snob Scrilla , Cloud Control , Bag Raiders , The Bakery , The Sundance Kids , True Vibenation , Go! Go! Machiner , Girl in the Red Light and CSU’s own [...]
Apart from being super busy with work over the past weeks and still fighting IINET to get me internet access there has been another reason i haven't been blogging as much. I don't want to give the high number of idiots who write this blog off any more good music. But After seeing Trumpdisco's remix of Fatboyslim cop over 5000 downloads in little under 2 weeks it really made me think. It probably is those idiots, the gutless, cock sucking little losers who constantly fail to write an impactual comment on this blog that are the ones responsible for making [...]
Dubsided records has some of the best finds in dance music, every release different than the rest. In the spotlight now are Swedish duo Savage Skulls , whose tunes are getting spun by everyone in and around the Dubsided clan. Check it out. Savage Skulls - Bumps (feat. Timbuktu)
Drums of Death has certainly been a name to watch when it comes to big time remixers this year. Continuing this trend is his take on Franz Ferdinand 's "What She Came For". Almost reminds me of what Justice used to sound like before they decided to do remixes for Lenny Kravitz and U2 ... Look out for the EP which will be dropping later this month on Domino Records , and will also include remixes from Lee Mortimer [...]
Here are my top ten tracks for this week. BOOM! Kid Cudi ft.

Sound Pellegrino has been killing it this year with huge releases from the likes of Renaissance Man , Douster and Harvard Bass heating up dancefloors worldwide. Their newest release from Momma's Boy ( Mikix The Cat 's alter ego) is set to continue this trend. Under this new guise, Mike Gnacadja steers away from the hard, bass driven style we experienced in his Trouble & Bass days, to a more sparse tech-funk style which infuses the African rythmns of his Beninese roots. The entire EP is about as solid as they come [...]
You've heard it in the Youtube videos, now its time to hear it in full. Perhaps the sickest "Fake Blood" name drop that Theo Keating has done to date. Taking Beth Ditto 's vocals and twisting them to do his bidding. The "Love Long Distance" EP drops on the 13th of September and if the Fake Blood remix isn't enough to make you drop a couple of bucks on it, maybe the addition of some more magical touch from Riva Starr will. Solid EP. The Gossip - Love Long [...]

Dem Slackers - Snail Trail Plus, check their myspace for tons of new stuff.
Long time readers of this blog, and contributers on the Erol Alkan forum, should be familiar with the name RipTide . Wayyy back when I used to post on here regularly, the man sent me along a couple of tracks and I remember his sound was a really refreshing amongst crazy amounts of hectic distortion bangers I was getting sent daily. Well i'm happy now to say he is finally getting some serious attention, and its mainly because of this track right here. Its a remix of Jennifer Delano's "Amsterdam", and it has even been deemed solid enough to [...]
Bigness from the Sticky. I dare you to try and dj this. Maluca - El Tigeraso (Sticky K Remix) FIXED
One of my favorite Australian producers have sent through their remix of Fatboy Slim's Classic 'Right Here, Right Now' exclusively for FVCV . They are currently destroying both Melbourne and Sydney club scenes and i think this may be the track that gets them out into the blog world for good. It's a perfect construction for mixing , letting the much cliche'd original synths and vocals build the track into their now signature heavy and distorted drops. This is on of my favourite trumps tracks [...]
I'm finally back to having decent internet again, and was able to upload this mix I put together while recovering from a 7 day bender. This included Bloody Beetroots , and a little event we have in Australia called Unigames , which completely destroyed any immune system I might have had previously. Anyway, give this mix a crack if you need something to listen to for an hour-and-a-half. TRACKLIST 1. Calvin Harris - Ready For The Weekend (Fake Blood Remix) [...]
'The game of chess is like a sword fight, you must think first before you move.' The Proxy samples my favorite Wu Tang Clan Song and puts his signature distorted goodness along with it. This is one of those 'edits' that people put out to promote themselves and rarely touch the track. This is proxy at his best enjoi The Proxy - Think First (Jax and Soda Remix) (YSI) Peace, MS-DOS
photo copyright Elizabeth McKenzie 1. Major Lazer - Hold the Line (Skream Remix) 2. F.L.Y. - Party Time (feat. Band Geakz) I'm not tryna copy grindin', this is just a great song. 3. Diplo & Laidback Luke - Hey! (L-Vis 1990 Remix) 4. Suzanne Vega - [...]
Sticky K is bringing back that fun, party sound that Herve and Crookers bestowed upon us without being a ripoff. He has been killing it with remixes lately, and has released an EP on Dubsided records. Check out this forthcoming minimix which you should hear soon if you tune into Kissy regularly. Check Sticky's myspace for a killer upcoming remix for Maluca I assume on Mad Decent . Sticky K Minimix for Kissy Sell Out ( Sendspace ) [...]
