I love techno 2010: the report, the live-sets

As you might have guessed from my previous post, I have been to I love techno. It was my third time already, and maybe that played a role in my appreciation of the event. I didn't thought it to be worth the 50 euro's, because so many acts disappointed my high expectations. The public wasn't as eclectic as the previous 2 years, I wondered why so many people pay so much for a ticket, when they're standing still all the time.

But let's cut the negativity, it wasn't all bad! Some dj's played a massive set, and there were some things that I didn't see that seemed to be cool as well.

I uploaded all the sets on mediafire, so that you don't have to "wait 60 seconds

All the sets are radio rips, so they're only small bits of the candy. If you have found longer sets, drop a comment!

Starting chronologically, the first dj that got me partying was Jack Beats. Those nasty wobbles jacked everybody's body, and I experienced the first moshpit of the event. We didn't stayed the whole set, when they started playing dubstep (stick to your style!) we left.

Playing at the yellow room at that moment were Les Petits Pilous, throwing a bunch of hard and bleepy electro songs into the crowd. The place were I was standing sucked, but if you listen to the set you will definitely have a good time.

After Les Petits Pilous, it was time for Boys Noize! I always have very high expectations for his sets, but actually he falls short of them for most of the time. Only once I experienced a smashing set from him, at Rock Werchter 2009. The set at ILT was way too techno for my tastes, but if you want to see for yourself, I linked a part of the live set for your pleasure.

2 setbacks, 1 partially good set... Time for something that I loved last year! A-trak played one of the best sets then, this year he was a bit less entertaining, but still good stuff compared to the previous acts. He dropped Barbra Streisand of course, but now I'm officially tired of it. No live set I'm afraid...

I do have a preview of the new Duck Sauce track though, to ease the pain. It doesn't stuns me like Barbra Streisand did when I first listened to it, but maybe I have to give it time to grow on me.

Next up in the schedule: making sure we are in the orange room before it's too crowded because everyone wants to see the beetroots! Only, we were an hour to early, Crookers had just started their set when we entered. With Crookers, I have a bit of a hate/love relationship. I really love their early work, but I'm a total hater of their new turn, which they showed at their album Tons of Friends.

So with every set, I have to see if it's one filled with oldies and hard new things, or one with the more hip-hop sounding new stuff. This time, I was lucky, it seemed like I was back in 2008, the period were the boys were at their absolute best. Second best thing of the whole night!

Crookers - Live @ I love techno 2010

After the Crookers came, as I said before, the Bloody Beetroots with their Deathcrew 77. This was the second time I saw it, and although it sounded exactly the same as the previous time, I found it absolutely boring this time (while the other set was mental). Maybe it sounded a bit too familiar compared to their set @ werchter. I don't know for sure if this whole set was prerecorded, but there are a lot of signs pointing in that direction. The boys don't even have to touch their guitar to get sound out of it - how "live" is that huh?

Apart from that, I didn't really liked the sound either, it was really too much the same. Build up, and then a lot of noise after the drop - that's basically it. I think I'll only go check them again if they're playing a dj-set.

When the deathcrew was gathering all their stuff, a familiar looking asian american got behind the booth. It was Dim Mak label boss Steve Aoki, who would play the best set of the whole evening. An almost perfect set, although I'm still not in love with his heavy metal intermezzo's. They are a bit his trademark, but I would still be happy if he just played plain old hard electro all the time. Nevertheless, an absolutely smashing set!

Steve Aoki - Live @ I love techno 2010

After Steve Aoki, we took a short break, and came back to the orange room to check out Sound of Stereo. They were a bit boring too, or at least not interesting enough to keep me partying. We didn't had a choice but too leave - all the other rooms were basically closed, only a few techno dj's were still playing.

I have a few more Live-sets from acts that I didn't see, but that might interest you. The Goose one sounds really awesome!

Comment if you know more, I'll change it in the post!

Do you remember?

Do you remember our post about the awesome Rynecologist remix for Boys Noize's "Kontact me"?
If not, do you remember the original "Kontact me"? You loved that tune didn't you?
Well, this remix is a lot better!

Boys Noize - Kontact me (Rynecologist turbine remix)

Sun and moon, come with me...

Keatch, Belgian gladiator who's signed on Boys Noize records, has teamed up with Felix Cartal (Dim Mak). I bet that only those 2 names in one sentence make your electro hormones go wild, and let me tell you something: you have the right to become horny!



This track is "Solar", from their upcoming Ep. Played by Geht's Noch at Mano Mundo in Boom, Belgium. They have found a label (still unknown which one) for this release, and they have 2 other tracks in their sleeve where they are still looking for someone to release it. The other track on the first Ep is called "Lunar". Check it below.





Other hot news: Boys Noize will release a remix Ep for "Kontact Me", with rmx's from Rynecologist, Housemeister, Jan Driver, Depressed Buttons and Beataucue. The one that I'm looking forward to the most is the "Rynecologist turbine mix", and the best thing of it?
This rmx will be given away for free on the Boys Noize Blog! We'll keep you posted!

Bonus:

Mustard Pimp's giving away their "Scapegoat" remix for Kylesa for free. Stay tuned with us for their "EEAA" rmx, they will also give it away in exchange for 0,00 €, to promote their upcoming "Rock, Paper, Scissors" Ep on Dim Mak. And there might even be an album in the pipeline???

chewy lemonade cookies

Chewy Chocolate Cookies has been ignored severely on this page. Reason being? When my co-bloggers saw him playing a set at fight klub in september, they were convinced that it was prerecorded. And if that's true, the guy is such a sucker in my eyes and ears, that he doesn't deserves any more promotion.
But I've changed my mind because of one of his latest videos, a promotional one for his new Doom-Ep. His productions like "apocalypse", "boom boom", his remix for major lazer and lots of others had caught my attention already, but I still was reserved for everything he pumped out because of the prerecording thing. I think that now is the time to break the silence, but if I ever see you again ccc, and you're not dj-ing live...



This video uses some parts of the chinese movie "House of the flying daggers" to create a cool effect, I was watching it with a lot more attention than normal promo vids. Heavy basses and high pitching sounds for the win! The name of the track is "Spontaneous music behaviour".


I'm sure that you have heard from the latest collaboration between wonderkids Boys Noize & Erol Alkan, the "avalanche/lemonade" EP. I have to say that my opinion on those tracks differed from the majority of other bloggers. While they were all psyched about the 2 tracks, I believed that they didn't deserve that much attention.
Lemonade was ok, Avalanche was even a bit boring. The Waves/Death Suite ep was a lot better. But the remix that Deaf Tunes made for Lemonade did got me jumping. This is how the original should have sounded!

Boys Noize & Erol Alkan - Lemonade (Deaf tunes rework)

Boys Noize @ fuse

This remix for Boys Noize's Kontact me surely will blow you away, it was played by the man himself at Fuse in Brussels last friday. The guy who made this pumpin remix is Canadian Rynecologist, some of you might know him from his previous work on Ed banger. Hothothot!

And what a crowd by the way... Wish I was there...

Calvertron!

Calvertron is a guy from the UK, with an impressive amount of productions so far. He has released stuff on Pottymouth, Legacy Kids club,... and on his own label "Jack Knife records". His sound is wobbly and bobbly, perfect stuff for in a club.

Calvertron - Doo doo (this one sample's the classic "Tom's Diner" by Suzanne Vega and Badman sound by Hostage)
The Prodigy - Thunder (Calvertron remix)
Chaka Khan - Feel for you (Calvertron remix)

We had to delete the download links, because someone didn't wanted us to share em. Sorry guys!


The Subs edited Boys Noize's "I love Techno - Anthem" "Nott", they didn't changed a lot in it, but I'm digging it enough to share it.

Boys Noize - Nott (the Subs vital edit)

Kill frenzy made this "Oizo-esque" track "54321", and it's a killer! If anyone can tell me what the name is of the original, I would be very thankfull.

Kill Frenzy - 54321

The Oddword made this track a whole wile ago, but for a stupid reason, I never was able to find it. I did now, so enjoy their best track so far (in my opinion). I recommend setting the volume at it's maximum for this one!

The Oddword - Kortelas

Last post... of the year.

On the last day of the year, I thought you would definitely be in for a party, so I will give you some random party tunes. Some new, some old, but all bangers! Make sure you get drunk tonight, and have a good time! Watch out for the fireworks though, you don't want to end up like the poor guy in the pic!

Soda 'n' Suds - We do it again (Gtronic remix)

The phantom's revenge - When Mr. Hyde killed Dr. Jekyll

Robyn - Cobrastyle (the Bloody beetroots remix)

Boys Noize & Erol Alkan - Death suite (Bobermann remix)


I don't know how old this one is, I definitely heard it at a lot of parties, so it's probably a little older. Dj Rob 3 is probably better known to you as Rob Threezy, an american electro/house producer.

Dj Rob 3 - The chase

Rob Threezy based his awesome song on the 90's classic "The Vamp" by outlander, so why not give you this one too?

Outlander - The vamp

And the last one for now: Lektrobeerz, another upcoming Belgian Dj-duo, gave us their latest track. To me, it sounds a bit like the two previous tracks I gave you. Weird!

Lektrobeerz - Frost
