Here's the start of what should be a DnB mix a month from the homey Nappy . I handed him the promos that I got in my DOA mail and asked him to sort out a special mix; here's his drop for January . Featured artists include dBridge , NCQL , Mind Vortex , Friction , Majistrate and plenty more. Enjoy this one!
Finally Zeds Dead release their long-awaited EP 'Adrenaline'. In The Beginning starts the EP with deep wobbles before Adrenaline delivers exactly what it promises: Dancefloor adrenaline is spades along with some great vocal samples which balances nicely with the tearing synth lines. Oh No features pitched-up vocals with the signature hip-hop chopped beat [...]
Hi World! Did you think we'd died? Yeh we did too for a bit (musically of course). We've had a bit of a hiatus over Christmas, but first things first. Meery Christmas & Happy (Belated) New Year! We've been quiet over the period for one simple reason ... not much is taking our fancy [...]
New remix competition from DOA and Ammunition Recordings of the above tune. Full details on this are over on Dogs On Acid . Get in on this!

I let this one marinate over on DOA. My Monday was jam packed, and sorting out the first of two Adam F posts for Dogs On Acid was part of my night. I interviewed him briefly about "In The Air" , a 128BPM jam that's been getting into many-a DJ's set, for good reason. Some infectious funk for you, with a hype, quick beat accented by a twisted bassline. Dude's got a deal with Universal right now, so expect more from him in coming months (including a video for "When The Rain Is [...]

It's available via DOA , so hop over there and grab it. Another bit, the amen-tastic "Tower of Babel", is also available if you check out their Facebook page . Some fine Christmas goodies, yes?

Head over to Delusions of Adequacy to read a fantastic interview with Conor Devlin of The Caseworker . Conor waxes lyrical about everything musical from Steely Dan to Opeth to The Caseworker. Regular DOA readers will remeber the glowing review of The Caseworker's stunning 2011 album Letters From The Coast . Speaking of which, after your fill of words you should then head here to stream the album in full and buy a cd or a bagful of files! The Caseworker - 'Boats'

Protest movements often result in music that is repetitive and uninspiring, if only for the small number of widely identifiable protest songs. You shouldn't be forced to listen to "The Times They Are a-Changin'" twenty times per day. Levine, who worked at Zuccotti Park's info desk,compiles a dozen songs that better fit this movement, and many others as well
I first heard Noisia's new track on Zane Lowe's show last night & immediately loved it. It builds nicely to a laid back hip-hop beat then drops into an energetic kick-led D&B pattern before kicking off big-style ... would I say it was instantly recognisable as Noisia? Nope - but that's a good thing [...]
With the Occupy Wall Street movement spreading to other cities, the media is paying a modicum of attention. Unfortunately, peaceful demonstrations are not going to get anything accomplished. Now that some Unions are involved, hopefully there will be some long term organization and goals. Demonstrations at the Koch brothers and Rupert Murdoch's mansions are nice, but burning em down would be better. However, what will really get the media involved will be violence. As abhorrent a concept it is, cracked skulls and riots will be what really starts the ball rolling. Bloody [...]
If you know me, you know I try to get a lot done online. One of my gigs is Content Editor over at Dogs On Acid , which I've been a member of since 2001. The site actually celebrated it's 10th year of existence, and got nominated for Best Music Forum for MTV's second O Music Awards ( you can vote now )! I think it'd be ill if DOA won something like this, while celebrating its 10th year of being one of the go-to spots for EDM heads [...]

Wanted to share my latest feature with A Sides , who drops his Mysterious Vibes album on the 10th of October. It's a really dope project - good variety of Drum & Bass, with both vocal and instrumental bangers alongside some leftfield and more experimental flavors. Real treat of this feature is the three hour, 1993 - 2011 mix recorded LIVE from Budapest Jungle that A Sides sorted out for us. Read the feature , then download that mix. Enjoy!
Patti Smith : Helpless [ purchase ] doa : Helpless [ purchase ] Cowboy Junkies : Helpless [ purchase ] I'm squeaking under the time-wire this time…I started out this posting week in the ER (I'm okay now) and my mom is also gracing another hospital with her presence (she's doing as well as an 86-year-old can). So I think the title of my post says it all [...]

I got asked if Eveson could rock a DOA feature. I love Eveson's work, and said definitely. Asked for a mix. He comes back with four hours of his music in mixed format. It essentially becomes a purge of all of his previous material, as he's got a slew of new, cross-BPM tracks to hit us with. Check out the full feature here , and be sure to grab the mix - and the compilation of unreleased/old material .
Morning all! It's been way too long since I've posted something (been busy doing personal stuff) but I'm back with some bangers! First up, the Mastertrons remix of Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc. On the 9th August 2009 the Italian duo The Mastertrons was born. On the 9th August 2010, they launched their first [...]
