That's Da Sound!

Hatchys - Nebula (Original Mix)

Dark and when I say Dark I mean Danny Tenaglia DARK. As in Global Underground's, Danny Tenaglia 004, disc 1, track 13, Anthony Rother - Red Light District DARK which was released a decade ago in 1999. Lets not forget Tenaglia is nothing less than groundbreaking and quite franky a musical genus. When I listen back to this G.U. release, I'm astounded by how cutting edge it was and how relevant it still is.

I'm straight up wet for the heavy bass synth of Nebula and the second I heard it I was instantly transported back to the first time I heard the Rother track. This is a DJ's DJ track and it gets 5 stars as far as I'm concerned. This shit is hot hot hot!



If you are so inclined, check out Anthony Rother - Red Light District here to understand the connection between the two tracks and consider yourself schooled. (ripped from the recording mentioned above)


Atlanta got schooled, congratz Atlanta!

Circuit Sounds

Altar Ft. Jeanie Tracy - Turn It Out (Original)

Exactly what you'd expect from the names above. Typical circuit sounds, so much so, I'd have to say it sounds just like the last track they collaborated on.

Tree Frog is Back on a Mission

J. Verner Ft. Philomedusa - Kombo (Original Mix)

I have been waiting a long time to hear this loop used. A fan of Julio Verner's productions, I was hoping for something with a bit more energy. The good news is that because this track is basically simple you can play it under or over another track to add additional energy.

Get On Down

Organized Crime - Play the Part

Piano house with heavy jazz and funk influence. Great House!

Lets Have Some Fun This Beat is Sick

Lady Gaga - Love Game (DJ Jickler Tribal Club Mix)

Disclamer: I am NOT a fan of Lady Gaga at all.

Pop music fans will dig this tribal/circuit flavored version of Love Game sent us directly from DJ Jickler. Personally The Gaga makes me Gag Gag but if I were forced to play pop by some swishy queen that wasn't going to leave me alone till I did, "Play Lady Play Lady", I'd rather play a drummed out version like this than anything else. It's not that Lady Gaga sucks per say, it's just a personal preference. It's a VERY RARE pop song that gets my adoration. Most recently I must confess Beyonce worked me with with Single Ladies. Yeah go ahead try to tell me you didn't like it.

Anywho back to Jickler who is one to keep an eye or in this case ear on. I predict bigger and better things to come from this guy.

Here Comes The Drum

Jamie J Sanchez - Dirty Beats (Original Mix)

What would you get if you put Celeda's - Underground, Danny Tenaglia's - Elements, DJ Paulo's Clean It Up, Oscar G & Ralph Falcon's - The Dark Beat all in a blender with splash of white girl? Check out Jamie J's Dirty Beats and see. Although I like this version, I'm super curious to see who will remix it and what they will bring to this track.

Break the Ghetto

Clubzound - The Guetto (Original Mix)

I'm not sure how this came to be labeled an "original" mix. I have both the tracks used in this "original" independently of each other and if my memory is correct neither was produced by Clubzound but whatev call it what you like. This has been some what of a theme of the Clubzound sound. Stellar tracks from the past updated or mashed. This offering gives us tribal drums with an old school sample laid over it. Be warned once you play it for em their going to request it relentlessly.

Bump'n Horns

Balearic Soul - Ole (Dub)

We've been beating a lot of drums here of late. I thought I point ya in the direction a super fun little house dub I ran across. If you were so inclined, you could lay some bang'n drums down over this and take it to another level or you can plays as is for a very cool vibe.

Short & Sweet

Tanja Monies - Love Sex Music (Original Tribal)

A sassy little vocal tribal ditty to get your weekend started. Bang'n drums & a naughty little potty mouth combine and beg you to free yourself.

Well All Right

Pepper Mashay - Dive In the Pool (Luis Erre Dark Tribe Unreleased)

Not sure how this one got by me. It's better than most of the recent remixes I have heard of this gay bar classic. Get your bottled water ready!

You You & You, No Not You, Can You Move

Jose Spinnin - The Freaks (Caramelitos Mix)

Fierce Latin Progressive House. This track exudes all that is the big-room nightclub sound. Delicious! Your floor will be hot for this, make no mistake about it.

DARK BEATZ

Doped Again - Dance Now (Tamer Fouda)

Intensely Dark! Wicked Fun! Not for the faint of heart.

VIP = C.P.R.

Ralphi Rosario Ft. Shawn Christopher - Everybody Shake It (DJ Paulo LA2RIO)

Not much to report here. Typical Paulo, Rosario, & Christopher equating to GOOD STUFF. I have liked every mix I have gotten of this track. Lots of great house versions including Rosario's Funky Vocal & Jay J's Shifted. Now lets talk about the acronym I created for these three.
