Happy Thanksgiving and Greeting from Buenos Aires, Argentina! Been here for a few weeks and the city and country are amazing. Inspired by the region's incoming summer, this new mix features songs from the Northern Hemisphere's just-passed summer as well as some new tunes which should are gonna be big for the next few months, regardless of temperature. Lots of new and unreleased tunes from Subdrive fam and friends as well! Galbis - Subdrive Summer from Below Mix TRACKLIST 1. Sebastien Drums, Avicii - Even (Blacktron Remix) [...]
Since we launched our 2009 Survey , I've seen lots of requests for more SELEKTOR mixes and DJ mixes in general. Well folks, you've been heard and we're going to be doing our best to post many, many more mixes this year. So starting that all off tonight is this fantastic mix I got in the mail from the Chrome Kids , a blog and DJ crew from the UK showcasing some of the best in dubstep, grime, bassline, and as they call it "the digitally mutated bastard offspring of hip-hop". The mix, titled "Hulk Hop [...]
Day after Halloween treat for you all! I first came across Streetlab earlier this year on the pages of Going.com. But before then, they had a remix played on the BBC's Radio 1, the guys have released their first track on RCRD LBL/Downtown for free download and are playing a bevy of live shows in NYC and hopefully soon abroad. Streetlab might bring to mind old-school bigbeat acts like the Chemical Bros and Crystal Method, but their sound is all their own with a harder and four-four rock rhythm which is straight up for [...]
original photography: Jeff of The Culture of Me OCD Automatic is a dj, promoter, and all-time party man from Madison, Wisconsin. You may have heard of his Whitney Houston remix over on BigStereo . He was in New York for a little and played a few gigs, including the one you're about to hear. Recorded live in a wall-shifting art gallery tucked away in a shady non-descript street in Manhattan, OCD absolutely killed it and got the kids going crazy. Get transported to Wisconsin [...]
Our boy Sta sent us his new mixtape and we're proud to be the first to share it with you! The mix shows his fantastic mixing skills and growth as an artist since tracks like In Living Colour .

Curtis Mayfield - If There's a Hell Below 2. The Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey [...]
We've come to the last set in our BEMF Live series; I know you've all been waiting for this one. It's a pretty big thing when you can cross over from a genre to another, but it's a whole other thing to be successful in both and have consistent gigs. AJ, aka , Treasure Fingers , aka one part of the internationally-known American drum 'n bass group Evol Intent , has done just that. With Cross the Dancefloor , Treasure Fingers has affirmed his place among the top of the [...]
Second to last set in the BEMF Live series! We wrote about Todosantos about a year back when we saw their first live show at Monkeytown in Brooklyn. Needless to say, we were blown away by the sheer audiovisual impact and the fact that they had all the pieces of the music puzzle together. If you didn't read the article, Todosantos are an energetic 4-person group hailing from Venezuela now living in New York. Their performance is a mix of live VJing and graphic manipulation with their own original tracks that mash [...]
We're reaching the end of our ongoing BEMF live series here on the site with only 2 sets left to go! Today's comes from Brooklyn's own Purple Crush . Isla from Crush got everyone pumped throughout the day as the official MC of the festival; you may have heard her hyping the crowd on some of the live BEMF sets. They just released their new aptly titled album, Blog Party , and you can pick it up on iTunes or at Turntable Lab ! If you're in Europe catch them [...]
Another live BEMF performance from Aussie-NY electro-rockers Lismore ! First time I ever met someone called Penelope, for real. Their set was great and now you can hear it anywhere you are. Enjoy Lismore LIVE from the BEMF! Lismore - Live at the 2008 Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival
I finally listened to this from beginning to end and I have to say New York's Rekles , aka Daniel Casanova, did a fantastic job bringing the energy up, but at the same time playing tracks that just meshed with the outdoor vibe perfectly. You'll get what I mean when you hear this fantastic set. Pump it out at your next party while the heat is still around! Rekles - Live at the 2008 Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival
We've gotten through almost half the lineup at the BEMF, but there's still more to come! Today's installment is from West-coast native, now Brooklynite, Loose Shus & Brooklyn's own Romanoff who together did a tag-team set at the festival. Beard, shades, and computers in hand, they rocked out the afternoon time-slot at the festival and warmed the gravel up for the dancers later that night. Loose Shus & Romanoff - Live at the 2008 Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival
This BEMF set comes from New York promoter, producer, and DJ: Cobra Krames . He djs and promotes with his friend Nick the Duke as COBRA KAI .

They keep coming! This one is from Brooklyn party-starters VDRK and Neon Coyote . Subdrive readers should know VDRK well as he did a SELEKTOR mix for us at the beginning of the summer. Since then he and Coyote have been tearing the house down at various parties all around New York city and across the states. Check out their live sets back-to-back here in the latest installment of the Live BEMF series. Neon Coyote / VDRK - Live at the 2008 Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival
Third installment of the LIVE BEMF series! The Glass have done rock/electro remixes and original tracks and this set is definitely a testament to that as it's a combination of their DJ skills and live performance. As one of the guys told me, they start off with a DJ set to pump the crowd up and then when they feel the crowd's going crazy, they do their original stuff. Oh, and definitely let us know what you think of this set and all the BEMF sets in the comments. [...]
