Rubix - Baiser Sur La Disco (Music Video)


I've been dropping this little Disco House track into my sets lately, so consider this a little homage to this banging chune. Support Rubix.

Highbloo - Time To Change EP

Belgian's own Highbloo, recently released his third EP titled Time To Change on Lektroluv Records. The concept of this EP is genius. It contains two originals that share some of the same samples, and the result is magnificent. Time To Change Part 1 is melodic and powerful. A festival slayer in every sense. Time To Change Part 2 is a Disco House thriller that drops to the nines. This EP is creative, fun, and satisfying. Great work Highbloo! Grab this badass EP here.

Harvard Bass - Pruno EP

LA's own, Harvard Bass recently dropped a new EP on Teenage Riot Records and boy is it mighty fine. The title track, Pruno, is my personal favorite as it has a Techno feel to it but with a significant Electro edge. Kind of reminds me of Gesaffelstein, which is magnificent. The Style Of Eye remix is fucking butter, as it turns the Techno original into a hard-hitting club banger. Onurp, both the original and the Cosmic Kids remix, are a bit bland in my opinion, but hey you can't win em' all. Grab the full EP here.

Club Cheval + Sound Pellegrino


Today, just like every Wednesday for the past few weeks, Sound Pellegrino released their weekly podcast. This weeks installment features the regular mix by the Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team (aka Teki Latex & DJ Orgasmic), an interview with Sam Tiba, Myd, and a "Mystery Robot Guest" (Club Cheval), and a mix by Sam Tiba. While I wasn't very fond of the Thermal Team's mix this week I did enjoy the interview. But the real highlight of the episode was Sam Tiba's super-exclusive mix. This mix is phenomenal with the only downside being that nearly all of the tracks in the mix are unreleased. But I have a feeling that soon we'll all be able to get our hands on these massive tracks. I've provided a tracklist (read: wish list) for convenience but be sure to fire up your iTunes and subscribe to the podcast immediately!

Sam Tiba's Sound Pellegrino Mix:
Crystal Fighters - At Home (Berou & Canblaster Remix)
Richelle - Bendin (LOL Boys Remix)

Tom Deluxx - Run Remixes


After the release of the Wasted EP I've been waiting to see if Tom Deluxx could still wow me with some heavy electro like he used to. I (sort of) got my wish with the Run Remixes EP as it has an impressive remix line-up of electro specialists including Belzebass, Aerotronic and aUtOdiDakT. While the general theme of the EP is "Gnarly electro beatz!" there's only one remix that stands out the most and that's the Blatta & Inesha remix. While Blatta & Inesha are usually known for a different sound they decided to take this remix in another direction and that direction would just so happen to be ACID TECHNO. The whole release might be a bit redundant there's probably a banger or two that's worth picking up so be sure to take a listen on Beatport here.

Tom Deluxx - Run (Belzebass Remix) (192kps)

Funkin Matt - In Or Out

Avicii - Street Dancer

Street Dancer from Avicii is an amazing Dance track. This one belongs in the history books. The breakdown is so 80's, I love it. It makes me of picture myself driving down Sunset Blvd in a convertible with a plethora of narcotics in hand and a car full of sexy ladies. How tight does that sound? Not only does it have a sleek 80's charm to it, but it also drops harder than your sister's nipples on a cold afternoon. DJ's, you need this track. Grab the listening version below. Buy it here.

Avicii - Street Dancer (192) DSCO's favorite!

Bonus:
Missy Elliot - Get Ur Freak On (Chocolate Puma Bootleg)
Disco Of Doom - Invader

Crystal Vision - Mouser

I recently stumbled across a Dutch House track that has got me raving all over again about the genre. Crystal Vision's track, Mouser, released on November 10th of last year on Robot Dance Records, is a reminder of why I fell in love with Dutch House in the first place. Super high energy, fun sounding, and straight up gnarly at some points. I want to see this song be played on a gigantic system! Kissy Sell Out, this track was made for you!

Crystal Vision - The Mouser (192)


Bonus:
Jaimie Fanatic - Losing Control (Shameboy Remix)

Siriusmo - Feromonikon

Siriusmo recently released a new track on Monkeytown Records that has a lot of people speaking. It is titled Feromonikon and it absolutely bangs. It starts of with several messy, yet strangely enjoyable synth stabs to Wolfgang Gartner-esque breakdown and eventually drops into an extremely catchy riff that will have you humming for days. Also could have sworn I heard Brodinski play it at HARD NYE. I am not a big fan of Siriusmo but this track is making me take a second look at the Germans' previous work. Buy the track here.

Bonus:
M.I.A. - Internet Connection (Huoratron Rum Aid Remix)

MR MAGNETIK - Mario Is Under Acid (Shameboy Remix)

I stumbled into this track a couple days ago after a friend recommended it to me, not expecting to hear much to be honest. But boy was I wrong. The intro is a bit melancholy but when the drop comes the party get's fucking started! The main loop contains Acid elements and a heavy Dutch House influence. Super groovy shit right here. To all my DJ's, drop this one at primetime. Grab it while it's hot!

Soulja Boy - Pretty Boy Swag (Diplo & Munchi's 'Dude, I Can Make This In 5 Min With Acid Pro' Edit)

Never thought I'd be posting any Soulja Boy on this blog, but in my defense, Diplo and Munchi basically made me do it. A Moombahton remix of Pretty Boy Swag was imminent, and who better to do it than the rhythm masters themselves. Granted it was made in 5 minutes and you can kind of tell, but it still belongs on the dancefloor. So sexy!

Souja Boy - Pretty Boy Swag (Diplo & Munchi's 'Dude, I Can Make This In 5 Min With Acid Pro' Edit)


Moombahton Update: Dave Nada, Sabo, Heartbreak and Munchi released a brand new Moombahton EP, in an effort to promote their upcoming show in Washington DC (1.12.2011). It's filled with goodies so preview the entire EP below and snag what you like.

BeatauCue - Disque Oh! EP

BeatauCue has just released their latest EP titled Disque Oh! which consists of 1 original and 5 awesome remixes. The original is pretty typical BeatauCue Fidget with a dash of Disco House flare. Very dreamy sounding if you ask me. My favorite tracks featured on the EP are the Don Rimini, J-Wow, and High Rankin remixes. Don Rimini captures that dreamy essence I was just speaking of and runs with it, turning the original into a groovy tune with plenty of character. J-Wow on the other-hand transforms the original into a Brazilian Dance Hall number, which I'm sure will find its' way onto the dancefloor one of these days. And last but not least, High Rankin turns out a higher energy track with an epic Dubstep drop. Real club-churner if you ask me! Check out the minimix below, which features all the tracks from the EP. Go buy it here.
