Interesting release last week on BNR TRAX: Bobmo. Not really an artist I expected to see on this sub-label of Boysnoize Records. Okay you’re right, Bobmo does produce very old school sounding stuff but not really the oldschool sounding stuff that we heard in previous release on BNR TRAX. If you understand what I mean. Anyway Bobmo made a 30 minute mix with some interesting tracks in it.
The last release on the main label itself then was Mixhell’ Antigalactic which featured a remix by our beloved Mumbai Science, probably my favourite remix on the EP. Another remix came from Jokers of the scene, a complete other approach to the track with an 8 minute version that gets you into higher atmospheres (or something like that)! Boys Noize himself (and also the boysnoize.com blog) said that the track is free for download, but it’s anything but that for now… . Keep an eye on the soundcloud they’ll probably still activate the download function.
Another long day at the office needs to be followed by some quality music. Lots of soundcloud previews and not so many downloads unfortunately. But who doesn’t stream a lot of his music online anyway? Let’s start with some previews of upcoming killers.
Those who read my post about RBMA know Jamie Woon and Hudson Mohawke once got selected for an exclusive producer program of the RBMA. These two guys are really hot on the blogs lately, combining the two is just instant win (or should I say bi-winning nowadays?).
Talking about dynamic duos, our two good friends of Mumbai Science are currently touring in America. They got so known and popular in such a short time, I bet it must all feel a bit surreal too them. Next release they are featured on is the new Mixhell EP on Boysnoize Records. DIM MAK likes to describe it as Indie Electro, so I’m just going to follow them on that one and add that it reminds me a lot of Amnesia – Ibiza in high pitch!
The next Jan Driver is coming later this month. It has more of a funky subtle approach then I’m used of him (love Gain Reaction!) but it works well! Jan Driver also has an other own EP out called Xtra 2011 which is also another electro banger (look it up on Beatport!).
Okay, so enough with the soundcloud previews. Next up are three nice and easy-listening remixes. One from ex-Aeroplane: The Magician. Also a new remix by Cosmonaut Grecko who created quite the traffic on the blogs with his remix for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and now had the balls to take on a Daft Punk track. And why not end with a remix from Soulwax themself, Not a new remix unfortunately, but the remix they did for Ladytron’ Seventeen which is now featured on the Ladytron Best Of Remixes, out now!

After all that mixtape violence it’s time for a load of tracks! Got a lot of nice blog submissions the last few days and here is a (still) rather small selection of it! First few tracks are a bit more funky and chill while the second batch is a lot more rougher and experimental!
Chromeo‘s new single “Don’t Turn The Lights On” is getting a lot of blog love. For good reasons of course, it’s a very nice track accompanied with this very cool video as well. What me interested the most is the remix by Aeroplane, good stuff as always from Vito:

Next a dreamy, very easy listening remix by Edwin Van Cleef for Housse De Racket – Champions.

And while we are sharing remix for french bands, here is the Mixhell remix for Jamaica – Short and Entertaining. Igor Cavalera made a guest apperience in the offcial videoclip so this remix didn’t came as a big suprise! If Jamaica plays their cards right they will be come huge, I already had the chance to listen to the full album which is coming later this month and it’s absolutely brilliant!

Let’s crank things up a bit and add some more bass to the game. Dolby Anol is coming with a new digital EP “Visa Mastercard”. For this EP they focussed on african rythems and ancient chants from the east, add a lot of hard claps and heavy basses and you get yourself the Dolby Anol trademark. Not the biggest fan of foreign-like chants though … and therefor this free “American Express” track they added I dig the most.

Malente is currently working hard on his own label “No Brainer Records” and in november he’ll release an EP “Tanzan Boys” on it with remixes from producers from all over the world (Them Jeans, Reset!, Rubix, …). This next one is a remix he did for Crystal Fighters. Very funk southern feel too it …

Now it’s time for those more experimental tunes! The first one is a free track coming from Mako Records (Proxy’s label). Very experimental, futuristic touches for those creepy late dark nights… spooky.

Simian Mobile Disco made an Mix CD for the US based FIXED. From what I can tell FIXED is a party concept and SMD is one of their main residents. The mix cd resembles a mixture of deep disco, techno records but as they say theirself “without forgetting it’s still a party!”.

Beat & Bang were so generous to give away a free track. It’s called “Listen to Moscow” and brings us beats and wobbles you could expect coming from a label like Mako Records in my opinion. Will be hearing from the a lot in the future I think.

Studying for my final exam today (which is tomorrow), but I feel so bad leaving you guys hanging without any tracks for almost a week now, that I decided to “quickly” make this post. We got some quality tracks in our inbox from all sorts of different artists and labels and here the ones that caught my eye:
I’m starting of with this funky remix by Sabotage for “MMMatthias – James”, which probably falls a bit out of line with the rest of the upcoming tracks in this post. Very funky and old-schoolish, digging this kind of music a lot lately.

Then a remix for We Love Animals, the “famous” track of Crookers ft Soulwax & Mixhell. Heard some other remixes the last few weeks, but this is the first one that I like. Religion gave the original a somewhat of a “MSTRKRFT” like sound.

Talking about MSTRKRFT, the next track is a remix by Blende for “Breakaway” which was featured on their recent album “Fist Of God”. I don’t know how much of you guys know Blende, but if you do know their remixes, you know it’s banging electro trash your getting. It was a long time since I enjoyed a good trash electro track, but this one is most definitely spot on!
