Paul Chambers Phantastic Sounds For two years Paul Chambers traveled as support for the Soulwax tour and whipped crowds into a froth with his brand of electro tech which has culminated in the release of his Yeah, Techno EP on Phantasy Sound . The label was kind enough to drop a Beataucue remix from the EP to give y'all a little taste. . Yeah Techno' was released May the 30th on Beatport and everywhere else in digital land on the [...]

Bxentric was kind enough to put together a nice deep/disco mix for you all. The London DJ/Producer duo have been working hard pumping out remixes and mix over the past 12 moths since they formed. Their latest remix of Flight Facility's new single Crave You was not only remix but reworked with additional live bass/guitar and a healthy dose of Xentrical swagger. This summer will see more remix work coming from the singer Louie Austen who was featured on the Flight Facilities Remix [...]

It's that time again! Bryn, one half of Bxentric was kind enough to put together a nice deep/disco mix for you all.

Mid Week Mini List Kind of a mixed bag today with a few late editions for you. No real underlying theme here just a glimpse of what I have been bumpin with the windows down on a summer cruise. (Images by Kamen Kamenov ) Aki Bergen's work with one of my favorite deep house producers Kevin Yost was what first drew me to his work. Stylistic, funky, designer feel house, with heaps of soul.

Mickey Moonlight - Love Pattern There are times when you hear certain songs that convey a feeling that is seasonal in nature much like the tag of tropical house. Mickey Moonlight would not fall into that pigeonhole because it's not trying to emulate the sounds of Myd or Douster. It's rockin horns and vocal ensembles on 'Pelu Tolo' that only others wish they had at their disposal. Ever since 'Interplanetary Music' in 2008 we have been treated to a different brand of Ed Banger. One that adds some depth not unlike the [...]

I have been thinking about DJ sets a lot lately due to my regular Thursday rehearsals at a friends place. Which in turn reminded me of the good ole days on the blog when I used to have my weekly Sunday Post. A clearinghouse of funk that would unburden me the feelings of selfishness that accompany the lack of sharing. I love to turn people on to what makes me smile, drives me into fits or chills my spirit and the Sunday Post was a great outlet to impart some of my favorites onto others. Some are [...]

Greg Wilson WMC 2010 'Electric Pickle' Mix Greg Wilson is truly a legend , a fact which I have failed to recognize with the exception of a few times like right here. Filled with disco rhythms, 70's hooks and a heap of slap bass this can transport you to a where it all began with Greg himself in 1979. We'd expect nothing but sharp perspicacity from the first man to appear on TV as a beatmatcher (BBC 1979). Thanks to BP for the Link [...]

Golden Bug (a.k.a. Mothra) vs Kong I'm just putting this together before work so I don't have much time to chat but I thought there's still enough time to share something new from Gomma's lead hand Golden Bug. Golden_Bug - King_Of_Kong

The Twelves @ Ozzy's Tonight After having complained many times about Winnipeg not getting the kinds of shows that other major Canadian cities get I will happily eat my words when the boys from Rio touch ground here in the prairies. Without a doubt The Twelves are one of the best production duos to have emerged from the blogs. Their live show is a one of a kind unique blend of live keyboards, drum machines, mash-ups and remixing on the fly. A key element for the duo is trying to improvise [...]
