The discovery of these cats really got me excited. Very promising new material coming from 3D Criminalz. They’re a duo residing in London, and they caught they’re first break after winning the Wonked Records remix competition for a track called Don’t Give Up The Disco. I don’t think I’ve been this excited about the genre in a while — I mean, I hear lots of good tunes all the time, but this next track was a straight hitter. On a scale of 1 to banger, this tune is definitely the latter. Good lordy! Put that thizz face on and have yourself “some fun tonight.”
And because I’m feeling extra wobbly, nab this one up too. A plethora of wobble variation is served up in Sanka Coffee’s remix of Jimmy Raz’ Like That.
Hailing from Wolverhampton, England, Filthy Rehab have only been producing for about 16 months and have over 50 releases on Beatport.
Here’s another one of comparable filth…
JACK SM1TH, of whom I recently posted about, has been kind enough to send over the track that I originally posted as a soundcloud embed. Deep Sense is superb — a fantastic blend of all the right elements. Groovy fun-in-the-sun tech house with a little bit of wonk drizzled on top. He also passed along a jackin’ little number called Only. Really lovin’ this kid’s style right now! It satisfies the multiple personalities of electronic music I’m currently harboring; tickling my tech-house side and touching base with my love for wonky fidget sounds. Even my girlfriend, who spends most of her musical life jamming to indiefied grooves, turned her head up at both of these tracks. The first is still unsigned, so record labels need to get at this kid, quick!
And I don’t normally reference the artist’s from which my imagery came (mostly because I get them from image blogs and don’t even know), but I feel inclined to show Emil Kozak some love, because well, he’s a sick illustrator and designer! You should go check his work out while you listen to the above songs!
22tape is producer Jared Dunne who hails from the lovely state of Colorado (or is it Chicago? His soundcloud leaves me guessing..). He just released his Mosaic Change Tone EP, and as far as the genre goes, I’d say it’s best to quote him on this one: “downbeat vinylicious hip hop with a smidge of glitch.” My favorite track from the EP, by far, is Saloon Shagger. Littered with smooth sexy saxaphones, delicious organic sounds, and a glitchy break beat, this track glides you through a boddy-poppin’ journey into absolute bliss!
This release enters the ring with knockout big-names like Flying Lotus and Krush — and boy is this kid a contender. It took me awhile to get around to posting this, and I apologize for sleeping on it so hard. Glad to let this EP see some CYV™ love because I’m sure there is greatness in store for young Dunne. Fantastic experimental stuff here folks, so do yourself a favor, and pick up this whole EP…for free!
I love me some jackin’ tech house and Jeff Doubleu really delivers on these two remixes — especially with his bootleg of I Feel Better. The song itself, post drop, resembles nothing of the original, but he sets aside the breakdowns for some untouched, unadulterated Hot Chip. Super bouncy two-steppin’ freshness mixed with some classic feel-good! Dead Voice Funk is quite the number too. Crossing the line further into the tech-house side of things, the remix is pumped with soft organ stabs, bongo hits, and a soothing, slightly melancholy, male vocal loop. Groovy stuff!
This leads segue into the next artist of recent discovery, JACK SM1TH. I really wanted to nab this first track for you guys, but it’s only available on his soundcloud for now, so take a listen! Some deep-ish tech house sprinkled with pitch-bendiez.
And heres a mellower interpretation of WoNK’s Don’t Give Up The Disco. Pretty wonky still, but not nearly as ear-blasting as the original!
Prime cinematography and editing paired with Magentic Man and some quintessential party shots has re-ignited the disco flame within me! EDC feels like it happened ages ago, yet I could again feel the energy of that entire weekend. Nothing like a couple-thousand people dancing their asses off while that ghetto bassline pounds so hard it moves the air!
“This right here is the electronic super group of the moment. Skream, Benga and Artwork together is every dubstep afficcionado’s wet dream.”
