It's been a while since I last posted here , but I had a bizzy month , got my old life back and days are running by without me even knowing it . But let's go on to better things , MUSIC ! To start off in some great style here's a Mix by the italian monster Riva Starr !
He seems to have burst onto the scene fully formed , and injected a shot of adrenalin directly into our ear canals .
Luring us toward the goods like a veteran gypsy stealing your wallet , this spicy concoction of Balkan beats rubbing elbows with the best elements of tech house weaves an intoxicating spell to say the least . This is booty shaking dance floor crack that you’ll find yourself begging , stealing and borrowing to get your next fix of .
Tim Liken aka Tim Deluxe is a London based DJ and producer. His tracks contemplate a wide range of styles and sounds and one of his biggest hits is the well known track "It Just Won't Do".
Recently out on Skint Records is a new EP with two tracks entitled "When We Come To It" and "Storm In a Teacup" where Deluxe explores the acid and dark sides of house music. Personally I'm already a fan of this one below.. Enjoy :)
Joris Voorn is a native-born Dutch DJ, music producer and remixer from Schiedam concentrating in Deep House and Techno sounds since 1997. He has just released housy "Dusty House Room 2" available at beatport.
However, I leave here a track from the time when Voorn was making those slamming techno tracks and "Incident" was(is) one of my favourites!
Paolo Alberto Lodde aka Dusty Kid is an Italian young techno producer/dj. Despite being quite new in the scene his tracks and remixes have already made a stand about techno music. Richie Hawtin (Plastikman) himself pointed Dusty Kid as one of the new hotshots in techno music detroit style.
The album "A Raver's Diary" released in the 20th of April is a good proof of that. A mixture of different types of tracks always having techno music as its basis, and often pushing it to the limit.
Below I leave you with a track called "America" taken from the album. Not the best sample of the album style as a whole, but in my opinion a hell of a trip! Enjoy!
The mystery man's throbbing bass driven tracks took over dancefloors in 2008 . His mammoth track « Mars » and his string of fine remixes made him one of the most talked about producers of the year . Everyone was thinking that Fake Blood could only be an alias of a well established producer , judging by the quality of the remix . But it turned out to be just someone new trying to leave a mark ....
And now.... ... Fake Blood is back !!!
« Fix Your Accent » EP ( out since mid august ) , with more awesome and inventive production work ! « I Think I Like It » should turn into an instant classic and « The Dozens » brings back the best of Fake Blood's killer bass and destructive groove !

« Bring It On Now » is the new single from french electro/hip-hop producer and graphic artist MtO ( here remixed by Hatchmatik ). According to him , the trigger was pulled when he discovered Wu-Tang Clan on MTV at the age of 11 and decided he wanted to make music . Since then he has produced beats for underground french hip-hop acts and produced his own fusion of sounds .
For the last 15 years , TJR has been weaving his way in and out of the electronic music world as a DJ and producer . His djing roots began in North Carolina where he discovered mixing and scratching . After graduating in 1998 , he went full throttle with djing by making a name for himself . He managed to win a few DJ battles along the way . A few years back he used his DJing background for producing and has so far released tracks on some of the most cutting edge labels around like ; Potty Mouth Music , Wearhouse , Jack Union , InStereo , Tonewrecker , Promo Records , etc. He continues to craft his skills in the studio as well as on the decks and it doesn't look like he's stopping any time soon .
TJR has gained popularity in Dance Music circles for his Fidget House releases , including « Atomic » and « Good Evening Chicago » , on Wearhouse Music and Potty Mouth Music respectively .
« Eat , Breathe , Sleep» is his latest release . I will leave you with a remix from the aussie Dj and Producer Klaus Hill on the track « Good Evening Chicago » which I strongly reccomend .

y0! I really enjoy Siriusmo´s stuff and this new EP is awesome in my opinion. After tracks like Discosau and Simple, I challenge you to not find a track on the "The Uninvited Guest" you like.
a mix of bassline sounds , electro , drum & bass , dubstep and house... it's how Hervé defines his sound . Named Joshua Harvey , he is a producer , song writer and DJ . He also records under the names of ; The Count , Voodoo Chilli , Action Man , Dead Soul Brothers , Speaker Junk and Young Lovers .
Definitely a name to remember , even if not liked , his skills and creativity must be recognised and appreciated .
Hervé ... 2008 was his year , and in my (humble) opinion 2009 will be too .
