Xerxes - Selected Works : Volume One


This is a free download compilation! His new album is soon to be released (not free)

Taken from his websiteThis is the first volume of several in a series called Selected Works. They are collections of songs that I personally enjoy and believe those who follow my music will appreciate. In 2007, the Xerxes Complete DVD was released and it contained every single song I had ever made, which came out to about 420 songs or so. This one is now sold out and was only available as a physical DVD. In the Selected Works series I will try to pick out the best of them for you - and put them in a nice package. As with the Unreleased 2009 release - this one is also free to download or pay if you want to support the work. A personal high-five goes out to iq/rgba for the wonderful album cover art.

Just a few tunes that makes you want to live a BIT longer

Do I really need a reason to post a few tunes? The only one I can think of is that they have to be good. Here are a couple of tunes I stumbled upon this week that made me smile :)











This Greg Wilson vinyl is great buy to.

Review taken from Boomkat:
Greg Wilson comes to show the kids how it's done again with four edits taken from his Teenage Disco vaults. The man's credentials are undoubted, and increasingly relevant in a climate heating up with a feverish generation of nu-disco diggers. 'C'Mon (You Can Get It)' is based around a loop from Dusty Springfields 'Son Of A Preacher Man' with elements sliced out of Yello and Instant Funk. 'Doobie iN Your Funk' unties The Doobie Brothers and Curtis Mayfield with Visual, while 'Never Look Back' reimagines Silver Convention's 'Fly Robin Fly' and 'Booty Dance' splices a KC & The Sunshine Band groove for Wilson's own purposes. These originally intended as personal tools for his sets, but thankfully now a new wave of wigglers can join the fun. Quality.

Deep house mix from von Robak

Trying a different flavour, von Robak has crafted a groovy and jazz influenced deep house mix. You can download it here (or stream it).

Tracklist as follows:

1. Alex Grzybowski - Wind Steps
2. Prompt feat Onuba - Zora
3. dOP - Mambo Jumbo
4. Henrik Schwarz, Ame & Dixon - Where we at (v. 3)
5. Michel Cleis - La Mezcla
6. Dosem - Beach Kisses
7. Minilogue - Animals (Tolga Fidan remix)
8a.Ame - Fiori
8b.Ricardo Villalobos - Easy Lee
9. Massive Attack - Bulletproof Love (Christoff Berg rmx)
10.Henrik Schwarz - I exist because of you (Live version)
11.Oliver Koletzki - Warschauer Strasse
12.Ricardo Villalobos - Dexter
13.Kate Havnevik - New Day

Meanderthals - Desire Lines


This is an amazing collaboration with Idjut Boys and the norwegian producer Rune Lindbæk. I'm not really sure which genre to put this in, I suppose that is a good thing ;) There is definitely some disco, and some psychedelic parts in there but the main "base" of the album is relaxing electronica.
This is definitely worth a listen :)

Listen to them at spotify

Or use the junoplayer embeded :)






Zeb - Zeb step!


This CD is a sweet blend of modern Dubstep and classic Dub. Taking the basses and production-style of modern Dubstep blending it with lots of nice trumpets, melodicas etc makes this a perfect dub record ;)
There are both a vinyl and a CD release of this.

You can preview the vinyl from the junoplayer. If you want to listen to the CD follow the link to turntable lab HERE!






Third Ear Audio - Third Ear Audio


I have been listening to this record these past days and thought I'd share it with you guys :)
Third Ear Audio is a collaboration between Celli Firmi (Earthling) and Nick Barber (Doof).
They make dub/lounge/chillout music, and this CD is a good one :) Song number two "Ethereality" is a real lounge tune with lots of dubby effects, song number four "Freak of nature" is one of my favourites. Lots of dub, nice bassline and awesome pads :)
The album is released on Dubmisson Records.

Check out the Previews at Psyshop!

Bombay Dub Orchestra - 3 Cities In Dub


I Recently Discovered these great artists! They combine the east with the west, you have probably heard this a billion times before, but now I really mean it and the y do an amazing job!
This Dub version of "3 Cities" is wicked. Many of my favourite artists have contributed with remixes of the record. Great dub record you have to listen to :) I bet you want to travel after listening to this.






BUY THE CD FROM AMAZON!

Phonat Debut album!


This is also a must for the fast approaching weekend. Data Transmission described it as "coming across like a hyperactive Daft Punk on happy pills", Fatboy slim say'd "This guy fucks with all the rules" I thought that was a proper description. I'll not keep you waiting, just check out these tunes!

I suggest you start off with "set me free" which was their first single from the album.

HERVE's Partypack for the weekend!


Herve have been mixing a whole new compilation of sweet ass party-music that has just been released on Cheap Thrills Records!

It features artist like: Fake Blood, Jack Beats, His Majesty André Feat Bloody Beetroots and Herve. In my last mix I mixed some of this tunes and I'm still not sick of Fake Bloods - Fix Your Accent. I'll give you the video of the tune and some words from Herve himself here!

Air - Love 2


As most of you already know the new AIR album is out :) I just had to post it to those who didn't know!
It has the same feel as AIR usually have on their albums, though this is totally self-produced in their own studio :)
I also have to say that this is their best album since "Moon Safari" :)

Check out a couple of my favourite tunes from the new cd under:

Cinnamon Chasers - The Elements


I bought a new single from juno the other day after I got a free voucher from Modus Records(Thanks!) Since I already know (And love) Abakusm I thought I'd check out "Cinnamon Chasers"
So anyway, I downloaded an EP/CD/Single (don't really know what I'd call this) from Cinnamon Chasers called "The Elements", which contains a couple of tunes I'm starting to like, it's kind of "housie", but got a cool thing going, really makes you smile :)
Check one of the songs out on the video:

I was sitting here listening to some Dub and then it hit my mind; The new Liquid Stranger (Interchill Records) album is soon out (16th Of October) and I can't wait for it to be released. The new album is called "Intergalactic Slapstick" and I think it's gonna be a good one. If you haven't heard about Liquid Stranger I suggest you check out some of his work.

You could start of by listening to his debut album "The Invisible Conquest".

If you want some more you can download a full DJ-mix HERE.


Or check out a remix he did for the "Bombay Dub Orchestra" which I really liked. DOWNLOAD HERE. (Download link is from another blog, you can find the article about the song HERE.

MODESELEKTOR - BODY LANGUAGE 8 ! ! !


AT LAST! A new wicked mix from MDSLKTR! This is so full of energy and groove, it's the perfect "electro" mix, that focuses mainly on dubstep, hiphop and electro beats. Featuring artists like; Felix Da Housecat, Benga, Busta Rhymes, Rubert Hood, Boys Noize and Siriusmo.
It finishes of nicely with "My Girls" by Animal Collective!
This MIX is a must!

Remixed by artists like, Faze Action, Mudd and Toby Tobias, Idjut Boys and Prins Thomas, which are some of my favourite artist in the disco genre. I sugest you check this out ASAP! Dee Eye Ess See Oh!

Horse Meat Disco!


I think I'm in love! :D
This is one of the records I've been listening to most the last month! It's simply amazing, plenty of funky, groovy disco! I think this is the greatest cd of it's kind this year :)
If you want my opinion I think K.I.D.'s Hupendi Muziki Wangu tune is a good way to start with if you want to check out the CD ;) I posted a link to the JunoPlayer for your listening pleasure ;)

Ott Live At Gnomelandia

The first of my new posts will be this cool live-set from one of my favourite producers of all time; Ott.
He plays live at Gnomelandia 09 and I wanted to share it with you guys.
There is not much in the set that differs from his cd's so it might be a little disappointing for some. But I still want to share it. You have to register on the site to get this download, but it takes like one minute. And there is some other cool mixes there from both Phutureprimitive Evan Bluetech and Pitch Black that I quite liked :)
