When Will He Stop?



I think Afrojack might have an unhealthy love for birds (ducks especially) and even though his songs always have the same structure and sound i never get bored with them. There is alot of people copying his style ( e.g Funk the Street > Pon De Floor) and instead of trying to be different and ruin a good thing he stays true to his style which is always above the rest of the clones.

Horse & Brooklyn Fire


Horse, a dj and producer duo who are living in New South Wales, Australia, has blasted my mind with their Bangduck mash-up. He uses samples from the original, bangkok, the afrojack remix for cool and the nujax remix for bangduck. He's 22 years old, and the guy is only dj'ing for one year, but he has already supported acts like Van She, Bag Raiders and in the next month, he has to support Acid Jacks and Jamie Fanatic.
The outcome is surprisingly good, normally I don't like to listen to mash-ups at home, it's only cool to hear it played out live in a club. This time, the mashed up parts gave me a feeling like I was meeting old friends again, and I suddenly realised that they were a lot cooler as a group. So I won't ever listen again to Bangkok, Bangduck and all the other songs aforementioned, I will just enjoy this unbelievable mash-up.

Brooklyn Fire records (Tommie Sunshine is the label-boss) has officially started. I thought that it was in existence for some months already, but apparently Figure was just making a little promotion for the new label by putting "brooklyn fire" in his track ID's. Anyways, to get some attention, Mr. Sunshine asked some artists to make a remix for a track that they consider a classic. In his own words:
“When I thought about launching my new imprint, Brooklyn Fire and the impending WMC I thought the best way to cause a stink was to get the artists whom I dig and have them tear apart something they consider a “classic”. Enjoy these 20 works and I look forward to your support of Brooklyn Fire.”

The result? 20 quality remixes for some real oldies, with remixes by my favorite Figure, Mightyfools, Tommie Sunshine himself, Hostage, SonicC, Boris Dlugosh and loads of others. Definitely worth the 260 Mb of harddisk space that it will take! And oh yeah: It's for free and in 320 quality!

acid, electro, drunk fidget and a little yellow bird being banged

Figure has again expanded his musical horizons. This time he made an acid remix for Paul Anthony's "Cocaine" track. This man's production skills are truly amazing, he never failed to amaze me. His switching of genres only increases my love for him, he's not afraid to try new stuff.
I think that's enough praise for now, just download, play, love and tell your friends about it.

Snapcrack, a brand new French electro duo started their career with 2 banging electro/rave tracks, a remix for overthrill, and an original. Decent electro shit, it's violent and melodic at the same time.

Snapcrack - Nachos Machos
Overthrill - Your life (Snapcrack remix)


When I need a little music to get in the mood for a drunk party, Blatta & Inesha never fail to feed my needs. The latest track they shared on soundcloud is "what's the time", a collaboration with Whiskey Pete. I think that I have all the tracks from their Omgitm mixtape now, which means that I finally will stop listening to it. That's how it goes with great mixtapes full of unknown tracks: when ever track is released, I'm tired of the tape and I never listen to it again. Anyways, this is the track, and it's great!

And, I almost forgot...
BANGDUCK finally dropped.
The long awaited answer from Afrojack to bangkok is a remix with a blink, he wanted to show that his sound was stolen by Boris Dlugosch. But don't worry, they won't start dissing each other like rappers do. To the ones who can't make sense of the vocals: afrojack is from the netherlands, so the vocals are in dutch.

Fidgetting



Sharkslayer has made an excellent remix for digital manges their song manges (very original), it can be heard in the sets from sound of stereo and a lot of other fidget dj's.

Digital manges - Manges (Sharkslayer Dub)


Congorock is one of my favorite dj's at the moment, he was the best dj I heard at pukkelpop. Because this Italian was programmed so early, we had a lot of space to dance. The bloody beetroots love him, and their collaboration "rombo" turned out a to be a floorfiller when it was released (about two years ago). His remixes for fukkk offf and all leather are, in my eyes, treasures from God. Pray for him, and dance!

All Leather- I Don't Hate Fags, God Does (Congorock Remix)



Some time ago, Afrojack was just another one of these house producers that I wouldn't even try listening to. But then, something changed... He released three bangin remixes in a very short time (make her say, sexy bitch, killer), but the one that really got the people dancing, was his remix for spencer & hill. It even got played by boys noize at I love techno!

Spencer & Hill - Cool (Afrojack Remix)

And now, for something a lot more underground: Ado! This guy from scotland makes such hard, distorted, fucked up electro, the bloody beetroots sound like britney spears compared to this shit! He has a really weird myspace, and ado is also a football club or something, because if you look it up on google, you find anything but his myspace. but anyway, here it is: Ado's myspace.
