Dubstep Fixx. These are all bombs. Ridankulous.



Artist: Dubsidia
Song Title: Kill Humans
Genre: Dubstep
Description: Sick Sick Sick. The dubstep drop comes fast, at around 30 seconds and then again at around 1:20 but at this point the drums get much faster and it becomes something else. Amazing. Definitely check this out.



Artist: Lea Luna
Song Title: Hearts Under Fire (Bare Remix)
Genre: Dubstep
Description: Lea Luna's vocals are soothing to the ears, which completely contrasts Bare's style of dubstep. They compliment each other perfectly to create an amazing track. Just when you think the track has mellowed down, it surprises you and goes back into its intense nature. Just...sick.



Artist: FS
Song Title: Yup
Genre: Dubstep
Description: FS has come out with other great dubstep tracks like 'Shake Dat Ass' but this is actually something different. It will probably catch you off guard at the beginning, but don't let that turn you off the song. It gets better, a loooot better. It has its questionable moments, but in all this is a great track. Check it.



Artist: Kanye West
Song Title: Power (Paper Diamond Remix)
Genre: Dubstep
Description: Saved the best for last. The drop in this song is ridiculous. Absolutely crazy. The rest of the song is slightly questionable because of its docile nature. I quite enjoy it though, it has an old school west coast feeling to it kinda. But thats my opinion. Dubsteppers will definitely enjoy the drop at the beginning though, if nothing else. Definitely definitely something to check out.


That's all for today.


Peace.

Electro-House Fixx



Artist: Hatiras
Song Title: Catz Play
Genre: Electro House
Description: Hatiras has really come out with a great new electro song. He's a genius, and a fuckin crazy one at that. check out the video for the song on youtube, shit is crazy.



Artist: Porter Robinson
Song Title: The Wildcat
Genre: Electro House
Description: Porter Robinson has come out with a real banger this time. The Wildcat is definitely one of the hottest electro songs out right now. Definitely something to check out.



Artist: Crystal Fighters
Song Title: Swallow (Angger Dimas Remix)
Genre: Electro House
Description: This isn't the normal type of electro house you'll hear these days, but it is some seriously sick shit. The drop is sick and although there isn't that much of a drum line or whatnot, the shit is ill. check it.



Artist: PH Electro
Song Title: Englishman in New York (DJs From Mars Club Mix)
Genre: Electro House
Description: Sting's "Englishman in New York" is one of my favorite songs and this electro remix just works for some reason. I was skeptical at first, but was proven wrong quite fast. This remix is absolutely gorgeous. check it out.


That's all for today.

Peace.

February 14, 2011

Happy Valentine's Day! Today's fixx will be progressive house. Although many people (from what i've heard) believe that progressive house is repetitive and monotonous, the right progressive house can have a drop as sick as any dubstep or electro house. Check it.



Artist: Kaskade & Tiesto Featuring Haley
Song Title: Only You (Ken Loi Remix)
Genre: Progressive House
Description: Kaskade and Tiesto. Two names extremely well known in the house music scene. Ken Loi does an amazing job with this remix, creating a great progressive remix of the already great song. Haley's vocals are extremely smooth and soothing to the ears while Loi's synths and great beat create an amazing song.



Artist: Pryda
Song Title: Illusions
Genre: Progressive House
Description: Eric Prydz is another name which is well known in the business. Known for his huge hit, Proper Education, he has come out with a great progressive track in 'Illusions'. The song does not have much vocals at all, but that fact is overlooked by the sheer genius of his production. Definitely something to check out.



Artist: Matisse & Sadko
Song Title: Hi Scandinavia!
Genre: Progressive House
Description: Matisse & Sadko are relatively unknown but with this release they have definitely cemented themselves in Progressive House. Hi Scandinavia is a brilliantly produced track with a great lead-up and even better 'drop'. The synths are sick and the following beat is just as good. Together, they create a sickk song.



Artist: Erick Strong
Song Title: The Monster
Genre: Progressive House
Description: This shit right here nikka? This shit right here? The song title tells no lies. This is definitely a monster. Progressive house at its best. The synths, the beat, and the production quality in general is ridiculous. One of the best progressive songs I've heard to date for sure.


That's all the progressive house I have for today. But for all those reveling in the Valentine's Day parties and whatnot, here is a great love song to play. I'l let it be a surprise. Enjoy.



Peace.

Februrary 8, 2011

Today's fixx will be dubstep. Check it.



Artist: Noisia
Song Title: Split The Atom (Bar 9 Remix)
Genre: Dubstep
Description: Noisia is a great producer and although I really like the original version of this song, I think that it just sounds much better as a dubstep remix. Bar 9 has done really well with the remix to keep all the good elements while putting a sick drum line to it.



Artist: Calvertron vs Tim Healey Featuring Sirreal & Pippa Trix
Song Title: Rock It Roll It (Dirtyloud Remix)
Genre: Dubstep
Description: Dirtyloud have done a great job with this remix. They have found the perfect medium for synths, vocals, sick drops and progressive dubstep. Overall a great track and something to rave out to for sure.



Artist: Noisia
Song Title: Alpha Centauri (Excision & Datsik Remix)
Genre: Dubstep
Description: Another song originally done by Noisia. This is definitely one of the sickest dubstep songs I've heard in a while. What I love the most about this track is that the first drop of the song is accompanied with a synth pattern which sounds exactly like the sound that the 'Transformers' make. Not that I love the movie, it just fits perfectly with dubstep. Check it out.



Artist: Evol Intent
Song Title: Paradize City
Genre: Dubstep
Description: A masterpiece. A mix of Eazy-E and dubstep, who would've thought that would work? Well it does. Immensely. A ridiculously sick dubstep track.

Thats all for today.

Peace.

Straight into the music.



Artist: Dada Life
Song Title: White Noise/Red Meat
Genre: Electro House
Description: Holy shit. I really have no words for this song. This early on in 2011, I would already say that this will be one of the songs of the year. It is brilliant and there is nothing else to it.



Artist: Wippenberg
Song Title: Pong (Wideboys Club Remix)
Genre: Electro House
Description: This is a bomb. Once again, something you just have to listen to. It may not blow your mind away, but it will shake the shit outta it. Check it.



Artist: Chris Decay
Song Title: Like That
Genre: Electro House
Description: This song is amazing. The song starts with a good drum line, accompanying synths and good vocals. Then, surprisingly acoustic guitar comes in and is followed by an amazing drop. Definitely a dancefloor destroyer.



Artist: Temabes
Song Title: Toksin
Genre: Electro House
Description: Temabes is a relative newcomer, and is really showing some promise. 'Toksin' is crazy. When it drops, there is so much going on that you don't know where to begin. That isn't a bad thing either, because somehow it melds together to make a great beat.


Enjoy.

Peace

February 3, 2011

Hey guys, sorry for the long delay again. Today isn't going to be genre like the other days, but instead songs and remixes of Swedish House Mafia hits.



Artist: Swedish House Mafia, Eric Prydz, & Congorock
Song Title: Proper One Babylon (Mobin Master Mashup)
Genre: House
Description: This song is amazing because it takes three ridiculously good songs and puts them together to make a ridiculous mashup of epic proportions. There are at least three different drops so there's no way you can really get bored. Check it out.



Artist: Swedish House Mafia Featuring Steve Edwards
Song Title: Sunrise from Miami 2 Ibiza (Algerian House Lover Mashup)
Genre: House
Description: The original tune from Miami 2 Ibiza with the vocals from Watch The Sunrise by SHM's own Axwell. This is truly a great mashup just because the vocals fit so perfectly with the beat that the song just works.



Artist: Swedish House Mafia vs Far East Movement
Song Title: Miami 2 Ibiza Like a G6 (Acid Please Made in Glasgow Bootleg)
Genre: House
Description: Personally, I'm not a huge fan of Far East Movement's 'Like a G6' but even I have to admit that the vocals along with Miami 2 Ibiza's instrumental really is a masterpiece. It works on so many levels and is a great song overall. Definitely something to check out.



Artist: Swedish House Mafia
Song Title: One (Congorock Remix)
Genre: House
Description: I really like the original of this song, but Congorock has also done a great job remixing it. What I like most about this remix is that the drop seems to have a bit more substance than the original. I'm not saying its better, but if you like bass then you'll probably like this one better. What I also really like about this song is that the drop is basically a didgeridoo, which is sick. Check it out.

Sorry for being MIA and enjoy.

Peace.
