Hello 2010 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

What Can I Say

What can I say about the new Sade song that hasn't been said already? That's right, nothing. The album should be in stores on February 8th.

I Wanna Rock Video... Feelin It

Duck Sauce video

Data / Ministry Of Sound didn't exactly break any new ground here (why oh why can't I find the corny Bucketheads video to link here?), but this is still pretty entertaining...

Chromeo edit now for DL!

The good folks at Green Label Sound put out the new Chromeo single some time ago. I very much liked the song, but thought it was simply too short and radio edit like for club play. I posted my little disco edit for preview last week and got a ton of feedback and requests for DL. So here we go, a brand new Mediafire 320 just for you. Holler via email for an Aiff.

DL:
Night By Night (DJ Anonymous Edit)

Preview:

Chromeo Night By Night Edit

The original is waaaaay too short... and totally built like a radio edit.

Buy A Record

Not just any record, but this. I think I played it at every party since May or so. I even went and cut a dubplate for it.

Regular readers and superstar DJ's can also email me at the address on the right. I got exclusive promo DL links here.

What A Song

Top Ten List - July 2009

Wow I've been slacking with the charts...but hey no excuses, let's do it.



1. Downtown Party Network: Heart Break Dancing (preview)
New one by the Days Like These -guys and just as good.
2. Azari & III: Hungry For The Power (Myspace)
Much hyped vocal house tune from Toronto, out now on Cliché. Worth every bit of the hype.
3. Duck Sauce: The Motion
ANYway is good, The Motion is even better. Out on Fool's Gold in August/September.
4. Holy Ghost!: I Will Come Back (DJ Mehdi Remix) (192VBR)

5. Helsinki 78-82: So Lifelike
Forthcoming on our Nightrunners label.
6. 6th Borough Project: Do It To The Max (YT)
Such a classy vibe.
7. Major Ernie: Pon De Girls Floor (320)
Bird Peterson's simple Major Lazer / Ernie K Doe blend works.
8. DJ Tahara: S.O.U.R. Time
Killer Love To The World cut-up by one of the Ulticut Ups dudes.
9. Walter Jones: I'll Keep On Loving You (Myspace)
Smooth DFA niceness from New Orleans producer.
10. Uggla: Sommartid (Youtube)
Old Swedish disco pop jam that's having a big revival here this summer. Hold tight, I just might post it sometime soon.

I Will Come Back

The new Holy Ghost! single is finally out. Get a free Pepsi Co sponsored 320 here. The video is based on New Order's Confusion and features Arthur Baker playing himself.

Midsummer Party Mix #3

Damn I can't believe I made it and in time for the festivities too. Life's been hectic but here it is, the annual Midsummer Party Mix in all of it's 106 minute glory. Musically this is on the disco side of things and features a bunch of songs I've been playing A LOT over the last couple of months. No quickmixing this time (except for the short Imagination doubles), mostly I just let the songs ride all the way.

My Scandinavian brethren, have a good time next weekend and be safe. The rest of you can enjoy this all summer...

Holding Back

Excuse me for the slow week, I managed to kill my Macbook HD in Tokyo and am still waiting to get it back from the repair shop. Meanwhile, I wanna shout out a new record I like so much they fooled me to buy it twice (wav and 12"). This is the b side, the a side is even better. You can hear it at all of the usual stores.

No You Girls Instrumental

I'm kind of feeling The Juan MacLean's whole style now. One Day is still going strong and most of the remixes have been real solid too. This is no exception. The acid line and the chopped up Apache go well together, but I can definitely live without the singer and therefore prefer the instrumental version.
No You Girls (The Juan MacLean Instrumental)

Holy Ghost Loves Paris Remixomania

Phoenix: Lisztomania (Holy Ghost! Loves Paris Remixomania)
Holy Ghost! delivers once again but I could definitely use a dub version as well. Their new single 'I Will Come Back" will be out on DFA next month, backed with DJ Mehdi and Classixx remixes. If there's a copy floating around that I've missed please send me.

Btw, make sure to grab their solid edit of Hugh Masakela's classic Don't Go Lose It as well.

The rest of yous can check out the English version of the main site as well as start following us on on Twitter.

Top Ten List - February 2009

I'm starting a kind of old fashioned monthly top ten list of current stuff I'm feeling and playing out, just so the blog won't be about classics alone. Cause I'm really not the stuck in the past kind of dude, even if some of the posts might give that impression lol. Here we go with this month's favorites, word to Masta Ace.

This has been floating a round for more than a year, but according to my man Nick at Fool's Gold it's not even finished yet. It's a banger nonetheless, here's hoping there will be an official release one day.
