This week we bring you a new release from the Colorado Crunk Skunk, Dan Scheidt AKA "Papa Skunk". This is Dan's third release on our label and he keeps getting better and better. His first release "Bluntastic" is still one of our best selling releases on Addictech, competing well with NastyNasty and Blunt Instrument for the top spots when it came out, a nice introduction of the skunk into releasing music. After that most of the singles off his second release "AM or PM" made their way well up the glitch-hop charts on Beatport and now we bring you Dan's third EP, "Green Zone". Green Zone opens with [...]
NastyNasty's "Acid Hangover" is one romp around some strange ass sounds. Apparently, he created this after riding his cruiser bike around an abandoned San Joe while on Acid - sounds about right to me. It's like nothing I've ever heard before, which is exactly why I like it. Maybe throw in some Bay Area raps and this would have San Fran music written all over it. Also, just wondering - is it me or does this have that "Nookie" drum pattern at the start? [...]

Check out and download Moe Green's newest EP release, titled FREE WATER . I've always been impressed with Moe Green's intros, because like a good book, you need to catch the attention of the reader, or in this case the listener. Green does that well, and with that being said, enjoy: Moe Green - Mean Green Okerlund Download FREE WATER
. Who the fuck.. ? I had no idea who this dude is. .but I'm feeling this. Bay Area. Kinda reminds me of some Bone Thugs shit..

And then to this track from Main Attrakionz member Squadda B .. which features Danny Brown & Shady Blaze .. from a mixtape that looks kinda incredible called "Back Sellin' Crack". Which led me to download [...]

Armani Cooper: Bad Dream City
To put it plainly, Armani Cooper definitely has what it takes to be the next big thing out of the Bay Area. As one of the founders of Teambackpack ( check it out here ), he and his team have improved and expanded upon the hip hop scene through the creation of cyphers they now put out weekly. I'll post one featuring Armani below for those of you that don't know about them yet, and we'll try to share some of their new cyphers on the site in the future. Anyway, besides the work with Teambackpack, Armani recently dropped his [...]

Tiesto at UC Davis
I'm going to start by saying that I had no intention of liking Tiesto's set as much as I did. Call me a hipster, but Tiesto has been an artist who no matter how deeply into the EDM scene I got, I never had any interest in listening to. So much of the dance music that I listened to, showed to friends, eventually blogged about and DJed with was music that I felt like I discovered on my own. It was all music that I worked to find. Tiesto never worked in that way for me. So by the time I checked my email ten minutes before doors opened [...]
SnowGlobe, Day Three in Review
American Royalty We want to fuck you sonically Frontman, lead singer, guitarist and synth player Marc Gilfrey jokingly rolled this comment off after a quip about the live mixing that was along the lines of 'we don't want to be fucked sonically'. Amidst his t-shirt thrashing and heavily repeated lyrics, Gilfrey made these remarks to keep the crowd engaged in the group's indie psychedelic music. Not indie psychedelic like MGMT, indie psychedelic like some amalgam between The White Stripes and The Bloody Beetroots. Gilfrey and his [...]
Brodinski and Gesafelstein [Bromance Tour]
Parisians just seem to know what's up with EDM. The Techno/House duo Brodinski and Gesafelstein will be stopping in San Francisco this coming Friday the 13th at one of my favorite venues, The Mezzanine . The duo is celebrating their recently released joint EP Bromance #1, out now on their recently formed Bromance Records. Thus, they have teamed up on tour together. The tour is being presented by HARD, who put together a killer show about a year ago at the Fox Theater in Oakland with Simian Mobile Disco and Fake Blood ; in addition to, HARD Summer in [...]
Steve Aoki & Datsik [Dead Meat American Tour]
In what might be the most high energy, bass heavy turn of events, Dim Mak record label founder Steve Aoki and none other than Datsik have teamed up to go on an American tour. The Dead Meat tour, in support his upcoming album, Wonderland , will be Steve Aoki's largest tour ever. Steve Aoki has spent over the last decade developing his record label, Dim Mak . I had the opportunity to discuss his upcoming album release, Wonderland , which drops just eight days from now on the 17th, in our interview . I'm [...]

SnowGlobe, Day Two in Review
Sorry For Partying Only one half of this Boulder, CO duo played the day-opening set at the Igloo stage and probably for good reason. The audience was a good size - for a house party. Sure, by the end, the high energy, heavily remixed music brought in quite a few wandering festival-goers, but not enough to warrant any dual DJ action. It didn't seem like Nick Guarino (the head of the music blog thissongissick.com , a sponsor of the festival) - the half that was present - had too much of a problem with [...]
SnowGlobe, Day One in Review
Blockhead As I walked onto the soccer pitch at Lake Tahoe Community College, I saw the main stage - SnowGlobe stage - front and center in my line of vision. Up behind the tables at the moment (Pretty Lights would be up there much later that evening blowing our minds) was Blockhead, the DJ/Producer (Murs, Aesop Rock) from Manhattan, NY. It was a day show, and the first one at that, so the crowd was sparse while Anthony Simon was spinning. His hip-hop production background was evident in his set, providing samples that bled [...]
