Even more hugeness! They just keep on popping out from nowhere. This first one is only 128 kbps but its such a track! Literally raw power in a kind of heavy electr0/trance no nonsense banger! Its coming out on their Urban Power EP on Jack Knife Records with remixes from Calvertron, The Bulgarian and Sawgood. Its gonna be big!
Hostage is a talented man. Last year he was producing drum n bass, then onto electro/fidget house and now he’s pumping out the tribal beats and dubstep. This a lovely dub track, he can do anything bloody well!
Now what will be Toxic Avengers first single from his full length LP. The single will feature remixes from Drop The Lime, Cyberpunkers, South Central and Franki Chan. Its a huge high tempo electro track with a really great feel to it due its quality production, catchy melody and great sounds.
Its actually quite funny how similar all of A1 Bassline’s remixes are sounding. Bit of the singing from the original, then a drop into the similar wobble rhythms and sounds. We love A1 Bassline, but I think the time as come to move on to a slightly different sound or style for his remixes. His new originals that we’ve heard on his mixes are a fucking superb, more of that please.

Dance blog kings Crookers are back with two new remixes. The first of Fever Ray has a slightly minimal tune with a strangely catchy hook and a thumping bass drum. The second of Tiga’s ‘Beep Beep Beep’ includes monotone distorted bass and high ravy synths. Great stuff.
Big tune awaiting from Lee Mortimer andLaidback Luke. We only have a sneaky preview, but enough to tell you that there’s a funky wobble monster on the way to tear your house down! The other Lee tune is a remix of Franz Ferdinand is a house version of the original but still very much enjoyable with cheeky synth lines and a thumping beat.
Fake Blood’s always on fire. The new remix of The Gossip brings the Fake Blood signature sound and uses the vocals excellently. Also get your hands on their superb EP by buying it with the link below!
Sorry that picture is a bit intense, but then again it is Hostage with some new tunes, INTENSE! ‘Badman Sound’ really lives up to its name with whirring mental bass and ravy synths. Hostage has truly switched to the afrobeat as many producers have. It also shows in his other tune ‘Hanging’which is more funky with an old disco sample and a bleepy bendy synth.
This mix really contains brand spanking new stuff and really sums up the best dance of TODAY! Get all the tracks off the mix when you can, some you can even find on this blog!

Big fat post today. We owe you due to the serious lack of posts recently. Our excuse is holidaying, partying and just plain idleness!
Newish tracks from various artists here. Foamo, Hostage and Rico Tubbs produce high quality wobbliness as per usual, whilst Rusko and Skream bang out some devious dubstep. The highlight for me is probably Skream’s ‘Calous’ who is certainly back to his bass!
Mightyfools continue to bring pleasure to the dance world with their new EP ‘Living The Life’ . You may have seen a video preview posted a few weeks ago, well now its available to buy off iTunes and Beatport. We have some lower quality previews for you below so you can check out a few of the tracks before you buy it. We have the original ‘Livng the Life’ which is a funky wobbler, the Gtronic remix (insane!) and the Boemklatsch remix of the other Mightyfools original ‘Juno’.

Hostage has been catching the rays whilst mixing, so talented. This is his latest mix and contains probably the best tracks of the house side of underground dance today. Combining dancehall classics like ‘Pon De Floor’ with fidgety wobbly mayhem like ‘Who Da Champ’, Sound of Stereo’s remix of ‘Sobrevivente De Rave’ and many other styles, with the likes of Proxy and Boy 8 Bit, all into one painfully sunburnt mix. Be sure to listen to the Hostage tracks in there as well ‘Special Brew’, ‘Pirates’ and ‘Rudeboys’ which are ridden with wobbly goodness!

i haven’t posted in fucking ages so here’s a bigg’un. my excuse……..i’ve been busy organising the first wizards are better night. taking place in london on the 9th of july>>>>we’re bringing all our favorites along. MUSTARD PIMP>>STEREOHEROES>>DEM SLACKERS>>KLOSE ONE. be sure to be there. and there’s much more to come!!!! NOW // MUSIC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
i’ve been loving my dubstep at the moment even venturing into the depths of matter to attend RAM records>>which was insane>>benga and plastician blew me away!!! (but i swear if i hear anymore fucking chase & status i think i’m gonna pee blood…….. yeah saxon’s good but every other fucking song!) so here’s plastician’s may 09 mix featuring exclusive VIPs aplenty and some serious bass. and, also on the dubstep flavours we got gutfucker (version2) from stenchman. a huge huge portion of your daily bass allowance.
………………………………………………..
……………………………………
i’ve also been getting highly excited about the sound coming outta this one. GTronic. who has been featured recently but since then we’ve found a brilliant original, slasher, which comes full equipped with GTronic’s already standout hollow roar sound. HUGE!! and a remix of foamo’s ‘everything cool’ probably my fav. of all the gtronic tunes i’ve been able to get my hands on….catchy vocals, a huge drop, this song is every bit the dancefloor destroyer.
…………………………………………….
we’ve also got a preview of the new lee mortimer and foamo collaboration which is absolutely huge. it’s name is, suitably, ‘it’s going down’. however, it does sound real similar to the rusko remix of day’n'night…but, sick none the less. along with a 1.30 version of UFO (k-hole bass riddem)!!!!!! i cannot wait one more minute for the UFO ep. not one more.
……………………………………………….
jACK BEATs//UFO (k-Hole BAsS RIDDEM) (1.30 PREVIEW!!!)(REMOVED ON REQUEST)
…………………………………….
and yet more. i’ve been loving the remixes that have come out of the kick it ep by ct burners & jubilee, released on the nightshifters label. there’s a superb squire remix and a superb donna summer remix. the squire remix has all that one expects but having never heard donna summer before i was pleasantly surprised. another tune that’s had me double checking my ipod again and again and going>>’gotta remember that’, and i did. so good.
…………………………………………..
………………………….
and!!!!!!!!!!! new math head. i think. but none the less good math head. i really can’t get enough of his style. ever. so dark. like burial but interesting…
………………………………………………
and finally here’s a little treat that i found on hostage’s twitter. it’s called pissing about and it’s sick. a bouncy, bleepy number that even slips into a bit o drum&bass at the end. sexy. AND the fake blood remix of animal by miike snow. what a song!
………………………………………………………….

bye.

after a few months traveling across the vastness that is india i’ve finally returned to london, and fuck, the catching up i’ve got to do!!!!!!
to be honest it’s pretty intimidaing…………..what the fuck man . posts have been too gooooood on wizards!!!
but yes yes after constant ipod and 14h bus rides i’ve got some gems but not necessarily bangers, not necessarily even electronic…..and some ones i’ve spotted over the last day.
i had these 2 songs, along with the new animal collective album, in my head the whole of india. 1st radioactive man, who actually did the first fabriclive cd. he is some bad ass hombre, the mood of this song goes beyond darkness. 2nd is the song at the end of the darjeeling limited (wes anderson, geezer), les champs-élysée by joe dassin and it’s just a beautiful tune.
the new hostage mix, dirrrrrrt!!! (jus click it)
and some sick songs i missed in the past, hot pink delorean are the shit!!! party favour is the fattest tune! and after that sick andy george remix of the futureheads i listened further and his remix of toddla t’s manabadman is HUUUUGE!
and the final batch includes a wicked dub-stepy crookers mix, a nutty remix of warp by dj barletta, a new, and slightly different style, felix cartal remix and finally vouxhall by riva starr….i was previously unacquainted with riva starr but yeah, good good. and especially good seeing as my tickets are booked for bugged out! in union car park!!! SE1!, london, on the 24th of may, which has an outrageous line up: crookers, diplo, boy 8-bit, skream, fake blood, mumdance and now i have riva starr to look forward to as well. this will sell out soon though, very soon.
oh! and for pudding a great dubstep remix of dizzee rascal’s new song bonkers, which features armand van helden, by doorly, sure to be a club hittt! maybe even an anthem of the summer with this remix being it’s evil counterpart. it’s fucking great to be back. peace,

Recently I realised how I’ve only really been posting banging, dirty electronic tracks. I thought to myself, what about the electronic tracks which I listen to and give me that uplifting feeling which isn’t brought up by obscene drops and dirty synth sounds. So I thought I’d share the more relaxing side of electronic music with you which have been a huge part of my listening.
Shinichi Osawa – Main Street Electrical Parade Borerline cheesy but actual electronic genius. The Japanese hero really does have huge array of styles and this one is a real feel good track.
The Chemical Brothers ft. Fatlip – The Salmon Dance I’m sure you’ve heard this one, but if you haven’t, I have nothing to say but LISTEN. An absolute classic with a cheeky synth melody and a chorus to die for.
Red Organ Serpent Sound – Autobahn (La Priest Remix) Only 96kbps, really sorry. La Priest as you may or not know is Samuel Eastgate’s of Late of the Pier superb side project. The last half of this song is so unbeleivably happy and just awesome.
The Chemical Brothers – Burst Generator Electronica/physcadelica genius. With delayed guitar and synth hugeness and a driving beat, this one is euphoria through and through.
Right, relaxing time is over, here’s a new batch of bangers! Enjoy.
Cazals – Poor Innocent Boys (Shinichi Osawa Remix) A fidgety Bloody Beetrootsesque drop with some feel good tunes in there as well.
Blatta & Inesha – El Ritmo Barbaro Some cool Italian fidget. This stuff is a breath of fresh air. Whiring, chugging and squelching, ultra cool!
The Prodigy – Omen (Hervé’s End of the World Remix) Really dirty! You can always trust Herve. Cool vocal samples and a tasty, descending hook.
Hostage – Shake It (AC Slater Remix) We LOVED the orginal. The remix by the successful New York lad is also superb with an ominous wobble bass pulsating ryhtmically rivalling the original’s also freaky sound.
The Qemists – Dem Na Like Me (A1 Bassline Remix) One of his more commercial remixes but doesn’t let you down with the classic A1 bass sound and a catchy hook.

A trully wonderiferous night we had at the Bloody Beetroots show at the egg. I had high expectations and they met them. Playing banging tunes mixed very well with a great soundsystem and just the buzz and excitement of having the two masked beetroots in arms reach! This picture was my favourite of the night! Favourite track of the night had to be the Bloody Beetroots remix of Sound of Stereo’s “Heads Up!”. They also played their amazing new track Warp, for which i’m sure fans have seen the preview video, to hear the whole thing in super high volume and quality was simply mind-blowing. Punks Jump Up also had a pretty tasty set, laying down some Gigi Barroco (awesome), Foamo, Fake Blood’s “Mars“, The Proxy and other banging delights. The beetroots also played this tune of tunes:
