Breathtakingly Breathless September 22, 2014Jules 2 CommentsI always take my hat off for a good remix.. I think it might seeeeeem like it should be easier to create, because you already have a foundation to work from, but in some ways it’s gotta be way harder because how do you break free from what’s already laid down and keep the parts that work? So, I tip my hat to Regulator’s remix of Candyland’s, “Breathless”. They added just enough bass and switched up the whole vibe of the song! Candyland’s original is much more house-y and sweet, with a tropical island feel, which I’m cool with but I’m really feelin’ Regulator’s take on it. The vocal warp, bassline and some tasteful high hats and claps, all work so well together . The build and drop is heavier and has a sexy bite to it. Definitely, breath-taking.

Runnin’ Circles September 11, 2014Jules 3 CommentsMat Zo got me runnin’ circles for this jam right here! Seriously, the journey and layers in this song is just ridickillus!! Leading with a simple lil high hat and drifting into a slow build he teases the shit outta you with drumz on drumz on drumz til he finally gifts you that snarling growling gritty bass that you are practically crying for at this point. I know I was! (Seriously I think I was gripping my laptop with white knuckles and drooling on the mouse pad) And he hits you with that shit hard and fast just like you want it–BUT! I say BUT! He knows when to stop… to take it away dat throbbing bass and create a space to mellow you out with some heartfelt lyrics echoing into glitchy effects and runnin tha bass through your sexy earholes again. For me, what sealed the deal and lit my cigarette were those sax-y synth sounds EXPLODING in at 3:20 for the grand finale. I practically threw up. Like always, Mat Zo is continuously experimenting with new sounds and genre-bending from one song to the next, and I am quite thrilled with his recent venture into heavy dubby bass!

It’s Only Machinedrum August 14, 2014Jules 2 CommentsIf I could pick one word to describe this song it would velvet. It seems DJ Shadow requested this remix from Machinedrum, and now I feel I owe him my firstborn. This remix actually does the original major justice! I’m addicted to the dramatic intro leading into a tension perfectly created by the drums and soft sirens mingling together. Machinedrum creates a hypnotic dark beat to mate with those foreboding lyrics we all know and love. Thus, an eerie velvety remix was born!! I think we need to start breeding excellent producers with more songs like that. There are too many remixes out there that make me want to cry for the future of electronic music, while eating an entire pan of homemade brownies. Let’s focus on the good, shall we?

I <3 RoBOTs August 8, 2014Summer 2 CommentsI’m a sucker for Robots, Trap and Bass, so RoBOT RoMANCE from Sik VAN DYKE is right up my alley. The Blackmill and Purity Ring remixes are my favorite. SiK has actually enhanced them, which I believe is hard to do because they’re pretty much perfect as is, so it’s an impressive batch of work. I’ve experienced his spinning at several events, including the Gladkill Los Angeles album release party and it’s always satisfying. Go on a sexy trap sizzle, silky galactic bass journey with this mix: Bass, Sexy, Trapbass, Blackmill, Daft Punk, Days Go By Mimosa Remix, Dirty Vegas, Down2Ride, Dreamster, feat.

Slum Love June 2, 2014Jules 1 CommentEvery now and then a song comes along that is SO gritty and SO grimy that it renders me catatonic on the floor with my face floating in a huge pool of my own drool. I can’t get over it. Repeat for dayyyys son!!! This jam has such a beautiful flow to it, the mellow echoey beginning drifting into the hardest filth I’ve heard in a long ass time. No build, no nothing. Talent, folks. Thank you, Zeds Dead, for droppin this into your latest mix and gracing my ears.

Hot hot hot!! May 9, 2014Jules 2 Comments Song is aptly named I must say. This “wavey” vibe makes me think of heat rising off a scorching sand dune. Maybe because this song is so HOT! (GET IT?!?!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!) Definitely traveling through a desert town to this one… maybe some harem girls dancing, fire spinning, a giant cobra just chillin on a huge satin pillow. I love the combo of different cultural sounds with trap and sexy sultry bass popped with some perfectly positioned snaps.

90s Trap?! April 1, 2014Jules 3 CommentsWell aint DIS some shit?! Amazing shit! Firstly, I love 90s music and I don’t care what anyone else says. Secondly, I love good remixes. This is a glorious combo of both!! I’m really diggin that snake charmer sound thrown in there with an appropriate use of high hats. (Sometimes [mostofthetime] trap producers abuse the high hats and that crap just offends the senses. SUBTLETY my friends!!!) I also think it’s cool that they purposely included more than the chorus for lyrics, like many remixes tend to do. It does the original more justice if you ask me. On top of that, getting the free download bring’s your to Walu’s page which is a charity for improving the hygiene and sanitary conditions in Papua New Guinea’s coastal communities. HOLLA!!! Golfer’s clap! Support and show love to some sweet beats!
