The Knocks bring their own heavy 2011 concluding mix to the Ministry of Sound. It features pumped up clips from Alphabeat, The Juan Maclean and Martin Solveig, with hints of Foster the People, Ke$ha, and Daft Punk. Despite some abruptly rough beat matching, this track inspires lots of dancefloor action. 2011 Ministry Of Sound Mix by The Knocks

"When 80,000 people become one, that is my drug," says David Guetta . The French DJ and producer is understandably excited. Two years of mega concerts, festival appearances, and sell out shows. Six months of studio work and now he has released his fifth studio album, Nothing But The Beat It is the most anticipated record of his career, "With my 2009 album I achieved something really important for electronic music," says David. "It was the first time that the media, the radio, and the mainstream considered our music as important as hip hop, rock, and pop, [...]

Today we feel stupid. Really stupid. We never thought we would say it, but we dig this track of David Guetta. We were definitely punk'd. We got linked to a track titled horsepower via youtube, which we are absolutely hanging to hear. - And although we can honestly say & proudly, we have never listened to anything moderately current from David Guetta, it was never on our minds thinking this would even remotely be Guetta. Boy were we fucking wrong. This track has received 20 [...]

Life at the moment is hectic for Pearl and the Puppets frontwoman, Katie Sutherland, as her career has seemed to explode in recent months after a change of management. She is currently recording her debut album, and is gigging across the UK to promote it and we at Crack in the Road managed to catch her before her performance in Dundee headlining Abertay University's freshers week. As usual, the Dundee crowd was sub-par (see my other reviews in Dundee, its all the same) which is miles away from the crowds she has performed in front of [...]

All this M83 got me on a serious 80s kick. "Midnight City" put me in the mood, and Hall & Oates just took it from there. How can you disparage a decade that gave us Michael Jackson and the Talking Heads?

Ever heard of Madeon ? No? Then make sure you watch this video. Oh and by the way he's only 17. Even if you don't even like french house normally you'll likely have heard of many of the tracks he samples live, which range from Baba O'Reily to ELO to Chromeo. Madeon's production quality is excellent, his melodies are catchy, and he adds a bit of an electro house flare with his choppy vocal samples and synthlines. Grab the mp3 rip from the vid as well as some of my favorite tracks of his from below: [...]
I don't know much about 17 year old French Producer Madeon, except that he's absolutely killing it. I found him through our friends over at Vacay Vitamins and his music is unreal. Madeon plays upbeat dance party jams unlike anything you've heard before. He's kind of like The Knocks on steroids. The kid caught serious attention [...]

Things that will never die: Jazz, Funk, Michael Jackson and Disco! Of course this is just a personal opinion, but it is my strong belief, especially with funk, that these genres (yes, MJ is a genre now) will never cease to exist. But one that has recently gained new life is Disco. This new generation of Disco comes with more Electro-ey bass lines and sicker sounding synths (tri-S I call it). This ' Nu-Disco ' has been coming heavy from France recently and a now have their newest prodigy who [...]

Click here to view the embedded video. The video and song capture the wonder and fascination that children, and some of us grown-ups who are very fortunate, possess about everything in the world around them.

The duo have been hard at work on a debut LP that will follow up there simply stunning singles and remixes. The first official single [...]

Watch out for this kid Madeon. He's going to be a serious force in the house and electronic music world in the future, considering that he is only 16 years old.

Enjoy! Deadmau5- Raise Your Weapon (Madeon Remix) Alphabeat- DJ (Madeon Remix) [...]
What can we say about Madeon that hasn't already been said in recent months, the dude is 16. 16! It's ridiculous, 16 years old and already up there with some of the best ElectroPop/Nu-Disco/Dreamwave producers around. What's he gonna' have done by the time he's 20???? Talented beyond his years this young French producer shows not only production skill but serious musicianship in his tunes. His stuff is serious Nu-Disco excellence with an ear for a retro melodies and some insane bass programming. With a knack for solid grooves and heart stopping drops underpinning his sparkling, [...]
