Post-Mega-Weekend Mega-Post!


Sorry for taking so long to post, it's been a very busy week and mammoth weekend, including seeing Groove Terminator (GT) bust out some bangers. I've got some super fresh tracks though so the wait should be worth it :)

Firstly, a new remix by those 'i could have sworn they were french' americans, Plus Move. It's for a French group, SOx, and has a great bitey electro surging bass line and dancing synths. Well suited to clubs!

Next, Woodie from Sydney buddies the Ghettoruckus DJ's was kind enough to send along their latest work, an original track 'Alphabet'. Crunchy filthy distortion blanketing everything sounds so refreshing to my munt-ruined ears. Also, sampling from 'Sandwiches', a past favourite of mine, and some Waters' beats in there are very smile worthy. While you're at it, head over to their blog and check out the 'Tortured In Vietnam' mix. Hotty hot hot!

Now just quickly, the Justice BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix is out!@&$%@ Wowsers. Millions of thanks to discobelle for this one! You can see the tracklisting there. FUUUUUUUUCK GET IT NOW

How about a bit more Blamma! Blamma! to fire up the discooo? This mix of Headland's 'Dogging Sisters' is an intense affair of ascending synth lines and tight muffled drums. Fun fun stuff!

Now, it also occurred to me that maybe not many people had heard Justice's remix of 'Blood On Our Hands' by one of my favourite bands, the late Death From Above 1979. This would be a crying shame indeed, so I thought I should up this classic mix for you people. Everyone loves that old signature Justice bassline!

Even though it's been posted everywhere, I can't help but share the Herve Goes Bananas remix of NYPC's 'Ice Cream', which has that Crookers/Switch kind of roller-coaster-ride deep bass groove going on that I'm so incredibly attracted to. It's the most irresistably groovy thing! Tell me you agree. By the way, Herve is from Speaker Junk who are also well worth listening to. A Switch mix of their track Foxxy Lady is here on DD.

In other news: mark my words, Daft Punk will be coming to Australia in December. I've been saying it since December last year and still say it, and now it's publicly on display to either humiliate me or confirm my legendary status :) haha

Also, there are a bunch of seriously killer tracks on their way to keep checking up for the massive choonz.
