november has been a roller coaster

after a nice visit with the San Francisco county sheriff's department, I realized that being deprived of music, especially new music is a mortal sin. In the last few days I have hit all of my sources hard in search of something fresh, or at least a fresh take on a solid record. In the midst of saying goodbye to my car, and figuring out holiday plans, I bring you a few tracks for your listening enjoyment... tell all your friends.

the first few tracks come from Fake Blood- straight out of London, this guy has been tearing it up all summer. They call his music "fidget house" because of chopped samples and hectic beats, but it sure gets the floor moving.

The Black Ghosts- Any Way (Fake Blood remix)

Fake Blood- Bloodsplashing

Hot Chip - Touch Too Much (Fake Blood remix)


the next track is off of the upcoming A Cross the Universe DVD/cd from Justice- its a live recording, and hard not to like

Justice- Phantom Part 1.5 (live)

Finally, I leave you with a nice vandalism remix (digging this guy right now)and a Mstrkrft mashup-not bad at all.

Yves Larock - Rise Up (Vandalism Rmx)



Human Resource vs MSTRKRFT - Dominator vs Vuvuvu (2 LosBPMS Electro Remix)

We're so 2.0- two step that is

Halloween has typically treated me pretty well these past few years, and this year was no exception. My indie hipster douchebag costume fared well, with my Persian scarf, neon stunnas and multi colored chucks giving me an "authentic alt look." In between swallows of PBR and privlege heem was a dirty dance party. You all haven't heard a peep out of me in over a month, primarily due to some troubles and the everyday grind taking my focus away from the "blogsphere." However, it hasn't stopped me from digging for gems. In addition to this new drop, start preparing yourselves for The Adventures of Ernest Michaux, a hard drinking private detective with a heart of gold. In the time since my last post, I caught a MSTRKRFT/Felix Cartal/Congorock show at the Mez- WOW. Al-P and JFK killed it (along with a 5th of crown royal) although I have to say im getting tired of waiting for the new album to drop.

In the meantime I have been searching for the dirtiest of dirty electro and house beats for your enjoyment. Some of these are already considered "dated" by scene standards, but if you haven't heard em, you have been sleeping on some serious stuff.

Enjoy!

Don Rimini-Let Me Back Up (Crookers Tetsujin Remix)


Bloody Beetroots-Dimmakmmunication
