It’s been a hectic 2 weeks, so big ups to A+ and sofa for keeping the blog running. Thanks to everyone who made it out to our party this past Saturday — We had quite a fun night with everyone! I do have to apologize for not taking any pictures though… My camera wasn’t working for some reason, so we unfortunately will not have any pictures from this month. This issue will be resolved by next month, so no worries! Again, big thanks for coming out!

Now, on to the music:

First up, we got some new stuff coming from Flufftronix. Flufftronix (aka Michael Lasday) is a Chicago-born, Philadelphia-based DJ, producer and party starter. A master of contrasts, Fluff is adept at dispensing face-crushing soulmelters (quoth Lil Jon on Fluff’s track Filthy Angels, “That shit just make you wanna punch the shit outta some motherfucker!”), sensual luvstep grooves and everything in between.

The xx – Infinity (Flufftronix Remix)
Logan Lynn – Feed me to the Wolves (Flufftronix Remix)

And dennn, Wongo! Ohhh Wongo… you’re jackin’ fidget sound is just what I need!
Justin James – Jack With Us (Wongo Remix)
Tricky – Council Estate (Antonelli & Wongo Remix)

Bonus:
Kenny Larkin & Shlomi – Sketches (Shlomi Aber Version)
Hijack – Massive (Sick Jargon Remix)
Hijack – Nuts (Jeff Doubleu Remix)

Feels good to be back! And it’s the damn summer! Time for day parties, summer massives, cold beers, good tunes, design, Jackie Ngo, mad blahggin’, and maybe even a little bit of Hyphidelity.

Today I’m bringing you a KISS radio broadcast hosted by Sinden, with a guestmix by Mele. Features new tracks from Big Boi, Hot Chip, and a debut release on Sinden’s new label Grizzly titled ‘Kinda Familiar’. Mele is an upcoming artist out of the UK, his newest release, out on Mixpak Records – Bombay – is available on beatport / iTunes. Definitely gonna be hearing more from him in the future . The vibe is a little on the mellow side, so take this one poolside.

We all love Rusko here at CYV, hes been dropping bombs for quite some time. His debut album O.M.G.! was  released just 2 weeks ago, and as he explains in this mad decent podcast, the album is more than just dubstep. Its mixes together jungle, dub, pop, and even old-school rave sounds to make an album that showcases Rusko’s multi-faceted production skills. Current favorite from the album:

Rusko – Oy feat. Crookers

The full album, released on Mad Decent, is available on iTunes. And, that podcast interview is definitely worth a listen, Rusko voices his mind on the new Album, growing up in York, dub culture, smoking cali weed, drinking moutain dew, pirate radio, love for 80′s soul, and his favorite track of 2009 (hint: its from Joker) so make sure to check that out.

BONUS:

Rusko – Woo Boost
Kid Sister – Pro Nails (Rusko Remix)
Rusko – Da Cali Anthem
Attacca Pesante ft. Shea Soul – Make It Funky For Me (Rusko Remix)

A-trak‘s Dirty South Dance 2 mixtape dropped earlier this week, and ive been listening to it nonstop for the past couple days. 
Its one of those cds that hits the grounds running, and doesnt slow down, no filler. Its 15 super polished mash ups strung together with A-trak’s world renowned DJ skills. These mashups aren’t copy-paste, hes subtly adapted each vocal to the beat which gives each track that extra snap-crackle-pop.

The entire digital download is available for free at atrak.bandcamp.com. With artists like: Lil Wayne, Ludacris, Gucci Mane, Joker, David Guetta, Bag Raiders making appearances you can guarantee to get the party started.  Full tracklisting below

I try my best not to constantly “re-blog,” as I feel that many blogs these days, whether they exist in the music realm or not, tend to simply be RSS feeds for other blogs. But, with that said, I obviously have my reasons for the next re-post: George Lenton’s Birthday Mix for Squeegie’s 1 year birfday celebration! Squeegie turned one year old this past April and had a bunch of different artists make them birthday mixes. So many big names jumped up to help with the occasion, so you’ll be seeing mixes from: Jamtech Foundation, Rumblejazz, L.A. Boxers, Neoteric, Sduk, Cntrst, (and also Squeegie’s very own) Brookah and MacGregor!

Lenton’s 9:28 mix is packed with 20 tracks, bizzy-bouncing all over the place. Some real excellent mixing here, as Lenton proceeds to flawlessly jump from genre to genre, covering the grounds of hip hop, drum and bass, house, and of course, dubstep. Top-notch stuff here folks! Tracklisting after the jump.

Big ups to Squeegie for letting us host a direct download!
