BetaTraXx

Went absolutely bonkers last weekend with the more than legendary Lords of Afends Clothing.  Amidst doing so, we stumbled upon a GDD sponsored event featuring my mates over at American Royalty topped off with BetaTraXx to end the night.  Having seen American Royalty before, I knew the magical powers they contain when throwing out their live set, truly a site to see, new post solely dedicated to them soon.  Not only did they kill it but I was taken aback by BetaTraXx.

There's something about your standard DJ set compared to a fuckin rockin DJ accompanied by an equally as talented drummer.  It just hits you hard!  The moment I walked upstairs and heard BetaTraXx spinning his firing shit accompanied by a hammering drummer, I immediately hit the dance floor and my foot went stompin uncontrollably!  Managed by the lads over at Gotta Dance Dirty and already having a strong and steady following, BetaTraXx will be fuckin huge!  If you're a lucky asshole and are in the NYC area, be sure to check out hist set at the CMJ  Hype Machine Showcase in the basement at the Backstage Bar tonight at 2...

T & A

When it comes to music blogging, things aren't as easy as they seem.  Not only do you have to be motivated to post at least 3 times a week, be motivated to spend countless hours digging through piles of shit to find gold, but you also have to be innovative and creative in finding bangers that (hopefully) no one has heard before!  Nacht two menshun, you kneed to no how too spa-ell and wright goot!

All of these characteristics, and then some, can no doubt be found over at my homey Brendon's blog entitled Thorns & Arrows.  Always ontop of the new shit whether it be electro, indie, nudsico, dubstep, and the likes, T & A never ceases to amaze me with its alluring powers of sucking you in with phenomenal tunes!  Take a gander on over to T & A but don't call me when you get stuck over there drowning in insta-classics, bangers, rompers, stompers, and just all around great music!

Disco Bisque

As Electronic music within LA and the US in general continues to grow, brand new genres and sub genres within the Electro Realm seem to pop out every other day.  Say what you want about Nu Disco, but it's on the rise and it sure ain't going no where anytime soon!  As long as chicks like miss fire crotch above shake their booty to that funky music and the top dawgs within said genre keep pumping out bangers, I'm just gonna keep getting deeper and deeper into the funk!

Miami Horror- Make You Mine (Cassian Remix) 

Aeroplane vs Friendly Fires - I Crave Paris

Chromeo- Don't Turn The Lughts On 

DATA/DEBT- California Special (Eumig & Chinon Remix)

 Clyde Brown- Your Wish Is My Command (CAASINO Mix) 

Duck Sauce- The Motion

Miami Horror - Holidays - Dcup remix by dcupmusic
I usually don't like to hold back the heaters, but there's a few gems missing on this post.  Don't worry though, I'm sure the treat I'll supply you with on Friday will have enough bangers to have you strobing for weeks! 

More Reasons I Like France

French dj/producer buddies of mine who go by Walter Sobcek just dropped a video for their track entitled "Je me souviens" and it's jam packed with hot myrt action.  But don't take my word for it:

I Am Not From France (But I'd Like To Go There)

France, the land of wedgy beach break pits, topless beaches, frothy synth grinders, and girls with voices like angels.  Take me there...
Don Diablo- I Am Not From France (Louis La Roche Remix) 
Soko- I'll Kill Her
Coeur De Pirate- Comme Des Enfants (Le Matos Andy Carmichael Remix)

Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand

It was weird when I finally heard the original mix of Duck Sauce's "Barbra Streisand" after the remix by O God swept the nation this summer.  There's a teaser video affiliated with the movie Electro Wars  in which A-Trak gets interviewed as he talks about said weirdness and how he's "never heard of a song getting remixed before its release".  There's quite a few electro songs out there these days that are taken to the next level when a professional remixes them and adds their own spice but it's the true legends who make an original track that, no matter who touches it, the original will forever be better than the remix.  Surely, "Barbra Streisand" by Duck Sauce is one of those tracks...

Frothy Friday #1

Being recently inspired by surrounding blogs around me, I've decided to start a weekly music tradition (when I'm not pumpin out frothcasts).  I'm taking it upon myself to pump out a music feature each Friday featuring all the current tracks in my library that are stuck on repeat.  It's gonna be called Frothy Friday (of course) and it's gonna be a mix of shit sure to get you frothing, fist pumping, wang banging, beer steering, and boob lubing!  With each storm comes a calm and rightfully so, there will also be a few cool-down songs in there if you get to shneeked and can't feel your face; something to bring your feet back to solid ground.  Here's the first set, enjoy!
