All I can really say about these guys is that they are the new everything. Listen to this whenever, and you’ll be left 2x as fly as when you started.
Quick little roundup for your weekend. Kicking things off with Alison Valentine, this Moon Boots remix has already been heavily circulated throughout the interwebs but I’m a sucker for beautiful voices among other things. Excellent work by both artists.
Another track from my favorite bloggers over at remix86.com, N8 ST9 remixed the classic 90s Dona Lewis track “I Love You Forever”. No shame, I’m a nostalgic sap.
Kreap has been a big favorite at our blog and while he seems to be diving into more house-y stuff recently, it’s obvious he’s still got the funky fire within. Great remix of this Shindu’s “All In My Fridge”
Shindu – All In My Fridge (Kreaps Cluster Funk Deathwish)
Msystem, watch out for this guy. Walks the line between disco and electro like a champ. Epic remix of Grum’s “Through the Night”.

And finally, I’m still on Blende’s “Fake Love”, the original is king but the Villa Remix is pretty boss as well.

Just finished recording a new mix and it was promptly taken down by those heartless bastards known as the soundcloud copyright bots. Instead of jumping ship to another upload site I just made a short intro message and the mix slipped by. Yes, 3 seconds of random audio is all it takes. Take note oppressed DJs of the internet.
Anyways, I’m real pleased with how this turned out. The entire thing is a 30 minute crescendo, starting off smooth and sensual and then building into that jackin disco shit that I love. I will post some of the individual tracks in the near future – dealing with mastering and then soundcloud has been annoying and I can’t do anymore menial computer work today. So for now, sit back and load this into your ear holes.

Breakbot, the short shorts wearing frenchman just dropped his first full length album earlier this week. Probably one of the most unique artists on the infamous Ed Banger Records, “By Your Side” serves as an extension and fleshing out of his smooth and playful style. A perfect release to keep summer going just a few more weeks.

Been a while since we last did the shuffle and this one is quite the treat. I first got into Shinichi Osawa back when I was an electro enthusiast and he is one of the few artists who has managed to stand the test of time on my play counts. Typically frantic and ADHD in style he always appealed to me because he did so much more than just heavily distorted pumping bass – something that many artists made careers out of. A master of mixing dirty and beautiful as well as a synthesizer virtuoso, his sound is undeniably Shinichi and Shinichi only.
Main Street Electric Parade is a pretty vast departure from almost anything I’ve heard from him or anybody for that matter. It’s microdegrees away from being just another old school techno cheese track but instead is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard. It chills me out and pumps me up at the same time, if that makes any sense at all. Special stuff indeed. Enjoy.

Got a little e-mail blast from Visitor about their upcoming EP called Coming Home. Featuring a solid remix roster from the likes of Viceroy, Lifelike, FM Attack, and many others, check out the ethereal synth pop goodness below and watch out for the september 10 release date.

This post is way late but the Geisha Twins sadly called it quits a few weeks ago. In the fleeting year or so of their existence they cranked out an amazing number of tracks in a signature uplifting style. One of the few groups that I never previewed before purchase or download – just get that gold onto my hard drive as fast as possible.
Michael announced on facebook that he was leaving for personal reasons and that the process had stopped being fun. Zac, his other half, is still continuing making music through side projects called Groove City and Sebastian Scotch. Both are pretty dormant right now in terms of content but I definitely plan on keeping them on my radar.
Here is a little collection of some of my favorites (there are so many!). Thanks for everything boys – you will be missed sorely.
Geisha Twins – Everythang Nice (Original Mix)
Viceroy – No Ending (Geisha Twins #WINNING Remix)
Timo Juuti & Hector 87 – Cheap Bad Moves (Geisha Twins Remix)
Geisha Twins – Do You Feel The Same (Original Mix)
