Kaskade & Skrillex – Lick It – Tune Of The Week
This week's tune of the week is actually last week's tune, but I didn't have enough time to post it. The track's name is "Lick It" and f*ck me if the result isn't tasty. Taken off Kaskade's 'Fire and Ice' album. House veteran Kaskade teams up with the new school king Skrillex to make something that sounds like Junior Jack and Kid Creme on speed.This ...

December 2011 Funky House Music
These are the tunes I've added to my crate for December 2011. Remember, these are 12" versions, so you'll probably need to scrub in to between 1 min and 90 seconds to get to the meat of the track. Mostly funky house with a sprinkling of deep house here and there. Mark & Stephens - Freak Emotion [xrr rating=6.5/10 imageset=tiny_star label="Track ...

The Anatomy Of A Classic: Samples Used In Armand Van Helden’s “U Don’t Know Me”
After spending a night drinking wine and talking about House music with a couple of friends here in Costa Rica, one of the points discussed was how the classics keep being reinvented and reintroduced into the later works While listening to Armand Van Helden’s 1999 House music classic “U Don’t Know Me” on the weekend, all I could hear was the drum ...

Kinky Movement – Clowning Around (Tune Of The Week)
If there's one thing I love, it's a good cover version or a great reinterpretation. I came across this uber funky cover of Steelers Wheel's "Stuck In The Middle With You" by Kinky Movement. I gets very close to being a cheesy remake, but still manages to keep it classy. If you love the original, then this one's sure to get you drunk dancing when your ...

Justice – the new Daft Punk?
Now of course, there can only truly be one band in shiny robotic suits making bleepy french dance music that rocks music globe. But that doesn't mean that there isn't ANOTHER band out there that's come as close as dammit to recreating the tones and textures that made me fall in love with DP's music in the first place. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you ...

Throwback – my cure for homesickness
I've been in Costa Rica for a couple of weeks now, and I must admit - I've started to get a little home sick. The two things I really miss from back home are the food and the music. Costa Ricans aren't big on soul music, and I've been jonesing to hear a little Marvin Gaye or a drop of Betty White. So, in an effort to feel a little more at home, I merged ...

Wolfgang Gartner – Wolfgang’s Fifth
Tomorrow night I'll be dropping my first set outside the borders of sunny SA here in San Jose. It's at a new club called Karma and they manager said that they're looking for Electro beats. Now while Electro isn't really mind thing, I do need to get back in the booth, so it's a start. While I was sifting through my tracks, I re-discovered this banger from ...

Breathe – This Week’s New Tune
I started trying to make an electro house track, but just like every other time I started making electro, the track went in a different direction. There are still elements of my original idea in here (the lead synth which I named Let It Ride - listen and you'll hear why) but the track is still a lot more mellow that I originally intended, despite clocking ...
