You May Just Need a Diaper...



No matter what your genre of choice, as long as you enjoy bass, you'll be loving the upcoming release from Left/Right, Digital Pizza, and Access Denied.  The Left/Right and Digital Pizza release is coming up from the traditional breaks end and Access Denied comes in with the driving distortion he's known for.  Check out both mixes, I know I've been waiting for the upcoming 2011 Left/Right releases, and now you will be too!

Specimen A drops it again with a Chasing Shadows remix that really hits home for me.  It's a breaky remix that still keeps a down low grimey element.  I really like the fact that it's a mixture of killer upper basslines, broken drumbeats, and quirky synths!

I was really surprised to see a message in my inbox about this one, but I certainly would have been giving it a once over either way.  Defunct!, Loc E!, AGAG, and Figure rock the spot with a mildly disco influenced tune to definitely get you bouncin'.  The tempo drop really takes it down low and I can already tell the dance floor response with this one, it'll be a wild one.  Check it!

With many quality tracks on the label over the past few years the Kick It! crew does it again with their newest release featuring Trevor Rockwell.  Each preview hits a bit of a different vibe which is what I like to see in an upcoming EP.  From ravey synths to stuttered vocals and a wobbly bassline this is a "cop it all" type of release!

Painkillers, Drop Tops, and Ragga Twins


Here's an old track with a new spin on it from Noisia, a remix of the classic breaks/drum and bass tune Painkiller.  Keeping with the overall aggressive vibe to the song, Noisia puts their seal of approval straight up front on this one.  The classic Noisia tone of aggressive grinding synths twists this classic up a whole new direction and in every way keeps up with the original intentions of The Freestylers and Pendulum.

Run DMT comes to the table with the hard hitter "Drop Top" due to be released on Play Me 2 with a hard hitting energetic intro.  From the drop it hits the right spot with proper vocals to the tribal transformation in the end.  This is definitely going to make it into my next set.

Dave from Aquasky really is a wanker...more like an absolute monster of a producer.  Being in the game for over 10 years, Aquasky as a project has done pioneering on many frontiers, and just dropped this one for us with a free DL.  Alongside the Ragga Twins, Aquasky takes it back with some oldschool flavor to pop and shake to.  The Ragga Twins vocals get the floor churning without fail.  The middle eight is definitely the clutch for me, great phrasing keeps it quite interesting.  Finally the last breakdown with the epic keys and build, can't say enough about it!  Check it and leave some love on his page.

Step Your Fresh Up Fridays - Whoa Nelly...


Kid Digital and BETA have some serious bassline breaks action in "Bangin Machine" that drives the dancefloor like Jeremy Clarkson in the Ariel Atom (see pic above).  Although the choice of sounds are mechanical as indicated by the name, they're sounds sure to make your body rock.  The grinding mid-bass synth and killer percussion sound choice make this a sureshot for any breaker.  The techy nature of it does just the same, keep on the look for this release from Bombtraxx!

Let me just say, that yes, there are a million remixes of this track, and yes, a lot of them sound the same.  Now that that's been put out...yeah, finally got a breaks remix that should be available for DL today from Sharaz!  Some true breakbeat sickness coming out for sure.  From wonky synths to La Roux vox, this one is where it's at with proper arrangement that doesn't take away from the vocals.  The focus is in just the right spot, peep the clip, cop the DL when it's up!

Finally, a bangin' mix from my friends out on the left coast.  Bringin' the rough sounds from the Portland (PDX) rave scene is Discobisquits & Gravy, a collaborative effort of Echoik and Uberlush.  These two are no strangers of the electronic scene and hit it hard every gig with not only proper sounds, but a stage presence to match.  This is a new mix of theirs available for mobile steady rockin'.  From Dutchy, to Indie, to straight down and dirty, they cover all your basses ;)  Peep the mix!
