MID-WEEK GEEK

Photobucket

**Photobucket keep quarantining the images. Here's the PG version.

As all of you minions prepare for Splendour I'd just like to send my condolences to the residents of Byron Bay and it's surrounding areas.

I haven't posted anything in a long time, so here's a heap of tracks.

The Bloody Beetroots - Warp 1.9 (Youth's Woop Woop Toop Toop Redeemed It Fix) <--- I almost brushed this track, but I saw Youth play the other night at Barsoma and this remix is so enjoyable. A sneaky fake drop and he's ditched the hard banging beat and replaced it with a "Toop Toop" sample from Cassius. Brilliant.

Pogo - Lost <--- A glitchy "Alice In Wonderland" sampled production. Nice and chilled.

Canyons - Blue Snakes <--- Saw them play to an unappreciative crowd. These guys are playing some of the best/most perculiar tracks - a mash of tribal, glitch, funk, kudoro, big beat, dance hall etc etc.

Renaissance Man - Rythym <--- From Kitusne 7.

Major Lazer - Hold The Line (DZ Remix) <--- Chosen by Mad Decent as one of the top 5 (cumulative total of 239879843) remixes. Skream's remix is pretty tight as well. A big wobbly remix.

Delorean - Deli (Acid Girls Remix) <--- Recent signee's to Kitsune...so like, you know it's good. Killer bass line.

Holy Ghost - I Will Come Back (Classixx Acapulco Nights Version) <--- Classixx can do no wrong. Another dreamy gem. Kind of like listening to the Beach Boys whilst in a K Hole.

Generationals - When They Fight, They Fight <--- Just a good track.

Also, coming up;

- Mightyfools at Monestary tomorrow night.
- Lost Valentinos at Barsoma on the 6th of August.
- Death or Glory (A tribute to The Clash) at The Troubador feat. Yves Klein Blue, We All Want To, The Honey Month, Black Mustang, The Disables.
- THE FUCKING GZA AKA THE GENIUS at The Hifi on the 16th of September.

*Update: The blog will be converted to a website soon enough. Also; expect mixes soon.
** Track quality is all over the place, some are Mpeg, some are 320 etc etc. Bonus Brilliance;
