Hey y'all! Bringing you a real quality piece, a mixtape I've been tweaking on for almost two weeks now. It's bit more on the techy side, and since techno can be pretty flat (but interesting) played in a living room, I've chosen to layer other tracks on to create more depth and drama, and to get those really beautiful moments. So here it is, long and smooth style mixing. Hope you'll like it. Ridge Forrester (Fantastic [...]
(MSN 11.32 pm) Hey party people! I'm completely busy since my company is trying to save Sweden from the bank-crisis. So straight to the track. You probably noticed the latest hype in dance music production. Producers grab old school party classics and remix them completely by adding a 128 bpm tempo and a heavy baseline. Than suddenly in the middle of the tune the track breaks, changes tempo and goes "back to the roots". Many of these remakes are shit. To name a few good ones, check [...]
Hey you guys! While we read through hundreds of really nice suggestions from you guys, thanks a lot for that, and give you the winners, here is some Jackinori-songs for ya!

So grab your best neo-neon-phunk-shirt and walk downtown with this in your ears - you will feel complete, my garantees. Fatboy Slim - Star 69 (Jackinori 'They Fuck' Remix) Suric [...]

So we've gone over to saturday mix tapes instead of sunday's, for you to have something to warm up the party with, which doesn't keep you from drinking tea to in sundays, I guess. Anyway, this saturday I have a british bloke with a cliff steep career for you guys today. Jackinori is not even 21 years old and has only been producing for 7 months, and he has already several releases and remixes out. Cheers! This mixtape is truly representing a british house sound, with significant garage and jungle influences. The perfect ghetto-techy warmup for the clubs [...]
KNOW YOUR SWEDISH DJS! Patrick L lives in Stockholm and has been dropping massive house tracks, tune after tune since 2004. Apart from remixes for reknown artists and a couple of other collaborations he recently started his own label Twerok.

Wanna know what it feels like to be a superstar DJ? I bet you do. Then click the link. Superstar DJ, yeah! Anyway, Future Music is one of the better music magazines out there, at least when it comes to production and the like. In each issue, they include a dvd with one episode of their series "in the studio with..", where they sit with hi end producers and follow them making a track. A lot of nice hints and tips are often shared. And as [...]
Sebastien Leger has been busy. Apparantly he's working on a new remake of Marilyn Manson's beautiful people. Check Sebastien's Myspace for mor details. Anyone knows if this will turn into an official release? Or is it just a bootleg by another artist? Thanks to Videek for the tip! Best wishes! Sky Peace and love! /Stil crew

No, seriously, Uppsala has a very wide House Scene, especially with artists like Alex Lewerentz and Dirtyworx hanging around. The Zulu Club is the latest house project driven by my main man Arash Whatever. The plan is to [...]
Something is completely wrong with the blog. It crashes and the posts disappear. I guess we have too many visitors for blogger's server to handle =D Since Ridge have been working hard with Forever Classic concept, I got a bit inspired and started to dig in my "Old School/Too Cool" basket. Check it: Back in the days of 2003-2004, the Lisbon's finest - Rui da Silva would start all his sets with Snakecharmer Dub. He probably still does. [...]

Hey people! I want to take some time and discuss a topic which is quite important to me. The reason I bring this up is quite a funny incident that happened to our good friend PurePat . The other day PurePat recieved quite a funny Myspace mail from The Clubbers, the production duo consisting of Thomas Schwarz and Fausto Fanizza. The mail stated boldly: -Try to upload our tracks on zippyshare again and I'll come to cut your balls off! [...]
Hey! Bringing you some sweet monday stuff to lighten a heavy day. Jaytech's latest on Anjuna, and it is the old Jaytech back again. Best song he's done in years, imho. Also a sweet french-like-melodic-distorted- large-sound-song by Alex Metric. Exquisite! Adding an exclusive bonus remix by a friend of mine, Ombudsman. Great stuff! Jaytech - Vela (Original Mix) Alex Metric - Deadly On A Mission (Dub Mix) Justice - [...]
Brandon Kovacs is 19 years old, but don't be fooled. He is one of Miami most wanted uptown Djs. Growing up in a creative environment with his uncle producing the old school legends such as Fat Joe and Pitbull, Brandon picked up his first Dj-set at the age of 14 and have since then been playing at venues ranging from small basement parties to 1000-people arenas.

Wazzup clubkidz! If you are from Italy, Roberto Varano needs no further introduction. He's been spinning house in Rome's finest clubs since 1983. Same goes to London where he's been resident at phat venues all over the inner city since 1990. That's not all though. Catching the producer bug a year ago, Roberto have been locked up in the studio droping bomb after bomb with godspeed. Best of all, he like to share his music with the bloggers, and prefers earning his living through gigs rather than fighting about copyright rights. Here is [...]
Hey you guys! Passing on some sweet tunes I found. Enjoy! Leventina - Nightshift (Original Mix) Jean Claude Ades - I begin To Wonder 2008 (Jerome Isma-ae Remix) Gold! /Ridge F. Peace and love! /Stil crew
Wally Lopez never lets me down. Another great progressive track from the Spanish Producer. It's deep, tribal and very progressive. With tons of completely surrealistic samples (including a french tourist guide?). Don't be fooled, it's a bit slow at the start, but when the piano drops 5:30 into the track it turnes pure magic. Wally Lopez & David Ferrero - Ca C'est Paris Check out the massive remixes by Paolo Mojo & Gpal on Beatport (Gpal lunatic remix is a proper afterhour bomb!!!) [...]
Ladies and Gentlmen! If you digg comercial house, this is a mixtape for you. Dj Junior is not as unexperineced as the name might suggest. Since the dawn of his career as one of the Malmö's house pioneers back in 2000, he managed to gather a respectfully solid collection of residencies at Skeppsbron, Etagé, Centiliter & Gram and Crown . Does this guy ever sleeps? Probably not. The mixtape is impressive. Shout if you need a link to La Sagrada Familia. Kaballah Brazil is even better by the way. [...]
Hey you guys! I'm back with a new Forever Classics post, sorry it's been a while. Anyway, let's start out with a track by Soda Inc., a German duo making mostly vocal deep house with finesse, remixed by Steve Mill, a Greek progressive man worth keeping your eyes on (check 'in the distance on his myspace - wicked). I discovered this song last year in Babak Shayan's mix 'Deeper Side of Tech House', which by the way is awesome. I fell in love in it's envolving, solid melodies and involving vocals. It is a forever classic, indeed. [...]
Joaquin Phunk - Push Check out this dancefloor bomb from Austria. And keep an eye on Joaquin Phunk . After the dancefloor hit Electro Bitch released 2007 on Elmart records he is back with Push.
