“The massive music performance monsters at Insomniac have big plans for their big bad west coast super rave this year. They will test a new battle ground for a beloved festival and Our House Records wants you there.” – joseph
The boys from OHR, the SF based electro promotion company & record label, sadly can not attend the electronic festivities this year. They will be sorely missed. Lucky for you, however, they are feeling the love. OHR have announced they will send one winner a three day festival pass to the Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas! At a dollar value of close to $200 this is a rare opportunity to win some epic free loot. Big ups Our House Records, very well done.

Claude VonStroke, otherwise known as Barclay Crenshaw, is the head of the San Francisco-based record label, Dirty Bird. A product of the internet generation, Crenshaw saw his first tufts of fame through an instructional DVD on how to be a DJ — growing up, young Barclay was determined to make it as a hip-hop DJ; as this dream began to take on a new name, house music, he decided to make a video that would have answered all the questions he had as a young’n. In the process of filming DJs from around the world, he also learned a lot about running his own music label.
Dirty Bird’s signature blend of hip-hop inspired, jacking tech-house beats vibrate the speakers of clubs all around the world. The label gained it’s notoriety through Crenshaw’s ‘Deep Throat’ back in 2005, and traces it’s roots to an original push of promotion through the European dance music scene. It wasn’t long before the recognition trickled its way back into the states as people sought after these bass heavy, Cali-grown beats. With an impressive roster of artists that are making waves in their own right, it’s no wonder this group of tech-house savants can’t manage to put out a bad record. Release after release, they have proved their name, and the future shows no boundaries for these dirty birds!
We had a chance to catch up with Barclay right before his gig at the infamous Control down in LA. Check out the interview after the jump!

“Back on the block with some prettystep. Not including the Busta Ryhmes joint & the Crizzly piece, those two are just foul.” -joseph
In my opinion two of the most talented producers working today have busted out a glorious womp accented with vocals that will make your girlfriend swoon.
All I think of when I hear this song is, “Gimme loot, gimme loot, gimme money money money!” Busta showing he still got it, killin the verse, and the Dumbsteppaz coming so hard on the remix
“After a brief spell of silence Breakdown is back to break eardrums with two new remixes commissioned by Foktop! Records. Breakdown’s remix of Alvaro & Punish’s ‘Cubata’ has summer anthem written all over it. Its big tribal percussion, huge builds and a catchy drop do the job day or night. On the other hand, the “De Piano” remix is more of a peak time, high energy, party rocker. Both tracks are sure to be in the playlist this summer. Make sure to check out the other mixes on Beatport and show some love to Sneakerz Muzik and Foktop! at Sneakerzmuzik.nl. Enjoy!”
In about a week and a half, Honey Badger hosts BETATRAXX & LUCKY DATE in San Francisco.
For their debut event, Honey Badger aims to blow the roof off of 330 Ritch! They have invited me, Bassex, and Pillowtalk onto the decks to get the party going before our beloved headliners throw down their signature styles of face-melting electro house & dubstep/drumstep.
Have a little taster from each of these artists and realize that there is really no excuse for missing out on a party as epic as this.
