Funky Summer?

We are leaving the winter behind us and start looking forward to those first summerfestivals and summerpartys. The next two tracks and two mixtapes will probably not be the summer anthem of this year but they sure get the summervibe going.

First up a remix by Dj Manaia and Alif (behalf of DropTop), they remixed one of the biggest hypes in the blogosphere a while ago: Congorock – Babylon. After the amazing video from the A/V Scion project a lot of mp3 rips were spread and it was played all over the place even though it still isn’t released (I plea guilty). Funky remix but I was suprised the tempo wasn’t cranked up to the maximum, as I’m used of hearing from our GetHypedOnThis regular: Dj Manaia. The remix has some Majorlazer-like lyrics going (it’s actually Mr.Flex) on which are also added to the Original mix now out on Beatport!

Congorock – Babylon (DJ Manaia and Alif Remix)

Next a rerub(?) by The Disco Villians, yet again another surprising outcome. Very relaxed/laidback track instead of the pumping electro beats. Would love to hear this track at some huge summer outdoor event. Steaming hot.

Disco Villains – Chiquetere 2010 ReRub

Then the mixtapes I was talking about. The first one is from Mumbai Science who’s first EP is set to release end this month on the Lektroluv label, we did an interview with these guys which you can still read here.

Last but not least a new mix from Riva Starr. Love his style, love his music, love to drop his productions in my sets every single time and for some reason they never get boring!

Ghost Knives (Disco Villains “BIG ROOM” Banger Rmx)

The Disco Villians returned to the scene a time ago with their EP “We just came to get the party started” and immediately they had our attention again. This time no own production but a remix they did about a month ago for “Ghost Knives” a track on Shark Attack‘s new album called “Shooting Judas”. The original track is, as they like to call it, a real banger track, so for the remix they did somewhat of a semi “tech house” meets “banger” track.

ALBUM TEASER (mixed by Dirty Disco Youth)

Oh and a funny video I found on youtube. So The Disco Villains are beginning their set at some gig but the audience thinks it’s taking too long. They were even shouting CULEROS (assholes in Spanish ^^)
Just wait ‘n see how crazy they start their set, they just changed the mood of the audience in 4 seconds!! (Turn up your speakers!)

The Disco Villains – Medley (This Is Not A Remix)

I can’t believe what I’m hearing. The Disco Villains made a medley of all their songs and is f*cking HOT. They really made a masterpiece out of it, if you’re not downloading this you probably have bad taste ^^

With regret I have to tell you that I will be on a vacation during the first week of Easter Holidays. When I return saturday I will probably be asleep so you can expect many songs from me on sunday.

Happy holidays to everyone!!
