Le Castle Vania - Awake



Le Castle Vania has always been a favourite of mine. His ability to blend indie/alternative rock with heavy hitting electro is amazing. You may remember the awesome job he did recreating the Smashing Pumpkins hit Zero, shit was dope! Anyway, this new release is top notch, everything from the grinding synth to the airy vocals has been produced with amazing precision, resulting in an amazingly crisp and massive final product. Out August 9th on his own record label Always Never.

An Assortment of Awsomeness



A few mid week tunes to get your motor running 'n' shit!


First up Dumme Jungs have turned a monster into a monster from the year 3000. They labeled this as 'future shit' and it most certainly is. I can't get enough of the drop in this one it's stupidly massive. This is a 128kbps version...you can pick up the 320 and the rest of the Invasion EP here. I highly suggest you do with names like Figure and Trumpdisco on the remix bill this is guaranteed 5 stars!

F.O.O.L - Invasion (Dumme Jungs Remix)


I can't sing enough praise when it comes to this guy. Dillon Francis is just straight up a master of his craft. His ability to make tracks in every genre so well is something to be envied by every producer out there. Here is a smooth and funky Moombahton track that he dropped a few weeks back and a cruisy mellow Dubstep track that is hot off the press, both....amazing.

Toddla T - Take It Back (Dillon Francis Remix)

Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne & Busta Rhymes - Look At Me Now (Dillon Francis Remix)


Now if that was a bit mellow for you then prepare your face to be melted. Canadian Andy's iLL has re-worked the theme song from the movie 'Requiem For A Dream' and turned it into an absolute destroyer of a Dubstep track. When I first heard this I though I was having a brain aneurism, but it turned out to be the bassline...ladies and gentlemen....this is heavy fucking shit!!!!


Requiem for a Dream (Andy's iLL Dub fix) <-----------Kahblammo!




This next tune is, well, pretty rad! Jack Beats smashed it with their newest single 'All Night' and the equally successful remix by Skream. Now the duo have returned the favour and made a fantastic remix of Skreams new one. A bit of a different direction than their previous stuff but none the less ....awesome!

Skream - Where You Should Be (Jack Beats Remix)


A little while back I really wanted to post Le Castle Vania's remix of 'Is You', however Jamie beat me to it. Needless to say I was super pissed yet equally pumped because Jamie and I were unknowingly on the same hot tip. Anyway...Le Castle Vania has done it again, this time with the help of Computer Club. This was made for the impending U.S summer but I think it will do really well warming us up here down south this winter.

Skrillex.

Skrillex - Disco Rangers <--------Super awesomeness to the max!!!! 




I'm sure by now everybody has heard of Crookers new collab project Dr. Gonzo. Their debut tracks have certainly been getting some mixed reviews. I personally can't get enough of it, just super fun, well produced songs that are guaranteed to get a dancefloor pumping...especially this one...it's plain stupid fun. Springer, boing boing boing boing...

And finally a super awesome remix of the ever popular Ellie Goulding's track 'Lights'. Everyone seems to be Dubstepping this song and Comic Strips certainly nailed it with his take.

Beat The Weekend part. 12

















Well it seems to be that time of year when all the artists ramp up their production and start pumping tracks out left, right and center. I highly recommend you do your ears a favour and grab all these!

Another epic remix from Bart B More, although i find it a bit strange that he used the same sample (in the build) as he did with his mix of 'Lets Go' but this will be one of the biggest tracks of the year. Mark my words.

Im not 100% sold on the vocal at the start but this track goes off anyway

LA Riots take this one in a new direction with plenty of changes. A new direction for the future maybe?

The Italians impress with this dubstep banger!

I love the fact that Oizo is back in the studio. Every track of his makes me smile.

Love & Light hit the nail on the head! Everyone needs to listen to this!

As if the original wasnt good enough anyway... Le Castle Vania takes it to the next level! You find yourself playing it to the death over and over again. Absoultly love this one!

Ive been meaning to post this one for ages. Such a bangin tune. Play it loud!

Ahhh i simply love this remix. Subvert is the king of taking classic tunes and giving them a dubstep overhaul.

You know those tracks you DL and dont give them a proper listen and end up forgetting bout them altogether. Well fuck I blew it big time! After hearing some of my mates play this out a few weeks ago I've been totally obsessed, like listen to it everyday..

Zero Machine




Hello loyal readers. Sorry for the lack of posts over the last couple of days, I've been very busy drinking myself into an early grave however I have some great new stuff one the way so stay tuned. First up I thought I would upload a little edit I did with some downtime I've had recently. I've always liked the Smashing Pumpkins particularly their song Zero and about a year ago I stumbled across a nice re-working that American producer Le Castle Vania did which he called Zero Machine. I came to the conclusion one day that it would sound totally rad with some baile funk style drums behind it. So I did exactly that and chopped it up a a little in the process. Enjoi!

Also I think I found the inspiration for the 'Pon De Floor' music video!
