MWP 21

Wednesdays are always interesting here at MTH HQ.  Plenty of work to be done, plenty of new music to be heard, plenty of new comics to read!  That's why since February we've been trying our hardest to bring you new music to carry you through to the end of the work week in this thing we call the Midweek Pull.  This week Marvel premiers a pretty absurd crossover called A-Babies vs X-Babies that we're dying to get our grubby little paws on, might I suggest a trip down to your local comic vendor to do the same?  Also, there's some new tracks from the likes of Klever, Neki Stranac, and more dropping on soundcloud that we'd like to share with ya!

Let's start it off with a little moombah flavor from our favorite Serb: Neki Stranac.  The maestro serves up a hyped out flip of Stuka's "Stripper".  FREE DOWNLOAD!

And yeah, we're one week from Halloween so it's about time we infused a little spookiness into our selections.  This one has been "certified jackin" by the powers at be...it's the Mad Villains channeling the Maitland's and it's a FREE DOWNLOAD!

Ryan Marks dropped his Fiji EP on Party Like Us yesterday and it's a foot stomper to be sure.  My favorite remix comes from D!rty Aud!o and is a nice little moombah jaunt.  The ETC!ETC! remix is available for FREE DOWNLOAD...grab the full EP RIGHT HERE.

Our friend in bass: Inflect, recently packed up his stuff and moved from Nebraska to Los Angeles (tough decision I'm sure) and apparently he's enjoying himself because his latest is an ode to his new home.  I can personally attest to the griminess of downtown LA so I think this gritty track is an accurate reflection of that....FREE DOWNLOAD!

How about a moombahton team up of most epic proportions??  DJ Melo edited Sabo and Paul Devro's recently released dub of this Smalltown DJs track and decided to share it with the masses after it's success at the most recent Moombahton Massive in DC.  If you're down with the crew then buy the Sol Selectas release RIGHT HERE.

Err'body knows ATL kingpin Klever can destroy a dancefloor via a set of turntables but my man has been pumping out some killer tuneage of late as well.  Here's a freebie from the folks at Top Billin in support of his latest EP..."Higher" is available as a FREE DOWNLOAD, meanwhile Money Stacks is out now and you can buy it RIGHT HERE.

Sometimes we're all suckers for a little techno am I right??  Especially when it comes from France and ESPECIALLY when it comes from Bambounou.  My main man's remix of Fortune by Darling Farah is a late night escapade not to be missed.  Grab Body from Civil Music RIGHT HERE and grab the remix EP RIGHT HERE.

Speaking of FR, Killtronik recently had a remix contest for their track "Paris La Nuit" and this moombah-flip from The Kid Vicious DIDN'T WIN!!  What a shame...oh well, now it's up for FREE DOWNLOAD so grab it and play the hell outta it.  Super fresh, super light, super airy, super super.

That's all for now folks...we'll be back next Wednesday (HALLOWEEN) for more tracks to keep you company.  In the meantime, get back to work!!!

SERIOUS House Stuff from FR

The latest single from Bambounou--one of our favorite French producers--dropped yesterday on ClekClekBoom.  Night/Brawl is a laid back journey to a land of soft synths and ride cymbals.  Love the heavy kicks throw in for our benefit and the dude with the spider hair cut comes through with a tasty little 2-track release.  It's available now and you can get it RIGHT HERE...previews below.

Wednesday! Wednesday! Wednesday!

Oh me oh my!  Here we are again ladies and germs, the week is half way through so it's that time once more for our fancy-dancy midweek pull!  This week I'm celebrating the fact that I'm still on vaca, enjoying the rainy ass weather of the PNW for now...oh and did I mention I flubbed my press credentials for EDC by planning my vacation for the same weekend?  Wow, really smart dude...yes I know but alas we must push forward...onward and upward to the latest and greatest that soundcloud has to offer!  Today we have some new tracks from Kid Cedek, Steed Lord, Dos Lobos and more so let's get cracking y'all!

Let's get over the hump with a little 5kinAndBone5...this track is a tad strange, hence the tag "Alien Garage"...plenty of wubs to make me happy enough to share it though so check, check it out!

Next I've got some techy-bass from my MAIN man Bambounou...lovin' the whistle work on this remix for Voltron.  Make sure to grab this full release from Discobelle Records out in two weeks!

Normally I'm not too excited about vocal mixes of moombahton beats, sometimes it can just get too darn busy, but this track from Smash and Grab is an exception. Really diggin' the live instrument work which allows me to tolerate the so-so verse section.  Grab it HERE.

Now something from the homies Dos Lobos...this new remix is a rough and tumble affair, which I always dig. Heavy drums mixed with a funky ass break down about halfway through makes for a real winner.

And now...how about a double dose of trapshit? First off is one from the badest dude from Wisconsin...TEKNiCOLOR. He spammed the hell outta FB over the last 22 hours so I figured I may as well applaud his efforts by taking a listen and by george! This shit ain't bad AT ALL...now you try.

Follow that up with Rot10 Musik's acting Prez Kid Cedek...he's giving this track away in celebration of hitting 3k likes over at his facebook page. If you haven't already, go ahead and add to that total so we can get another giveaway hopefully at 5k!

El Nomada hooked me with his Bub-Rub track a couple of weeks ago so I'm always giving a listen to his stuff now and this one has the four elements I look for: Weird Shit, a heavy kick drum, some originality, and strange bass sounds.

Last up is another hot remix from our LA-via-Iceland friends Steed Lord. MEGA really cooked up something special for this mix of their latest single, Precognition. Grab the full release RIGHT HERE.

That's gonna do it for us for this Wednesday. If you're lucky you'll get your mixtapes for the first time in 3 weeks this Friday. If I'm rained in then I'll for sure do a massive post for you, if it's nice you won't be so lucky. LATER.

QUICK ADD:

2DEEP giving away a quick 108 edit for y'all...check them out next Friday (June 15th) at their monthly residency Muevelo with the AZ Gunslingaz (DJ Melo, Mendez, Riot Earp) as special guests this month.

Midweek Mayhem

It's my favorite day of the week y'all!!  Wednesday are killer around my studio, tons of stuff to do not a lot of time to get my thoughts out to the world so let's not waste any more and just jump right into some fresh tracks off my soundcloud dashboard!  First up, wanna re-affirm my approval of Ra Cailum's latest out this week on Think 2wice; just an all around solid release BUY IT RIGHT HERE and enjoy a taste below.


I posted a link to the Rolling Stone preview of Thelophilus London's remix EP on the facebook a while back but this is definitely another new release worth picking up, do so RIGHT HERE.

Sticking with this theme of fresh releases, here's Mackai's contribution to Club Cartel's Moombah-heat Vol. 1; grab the whole thing RIGHT HERE.

Now on to some FREE stuff, Pickster One's latest is a dancehall flip of Santigold's "Freak Like Me". Another solid track from the PHX don, always love when my man drops some free tracks on us all, thanks dude!

Sykur are a group of Icelanders who we've featured on MTH quite often and it seems they've hooked up with Dan Le Sac for a fresh remix of their latest output, "Curling". Interesting team up for sure, I've loved watching the evolution of these cats, if you've read this blog since the beginning you'll know I love me some Iceland.

The Eleven is the stage name for Dutch producer Kalok Yeung who chose to drop this track for FREE because it's gonna be sitting on some record company shelf for a few months so grab it while it's hot, hot, hot!

Back to the moombah flavor, love the drums on this one from Vato Gonzalez.  Heavy 110 + scratch work + free download = gotta give it to y'all.

Aside from being one of my fav tracks from the homie David Heartbreak, Arroz Con Pollo seems to be the moniker of a Brooklyn based moombah outfit. This track is perfect for the upcoming warm months so I thought I'd throw it out for all to enjoy.

Now one of the most excellent young producers coming out of Europe today, Bambounou. Been keeping my eye on this dude since Sound Pellegrino's Straight From The Spring release and his stuff never disappoints.

This track just hit soundcloud but has been making the rounds a lot lately...just an all around jam. Remixes from Jay Fay, JWLS, and more coming soon; big up to Craze for dropping this on us today just in time!

Well that's it for today everyone. Hope my selection is to your liking, make sure to check us out on Facebook, twitter, and soundcloud and stay tuned to MTH for mixtapes and a few EPs in these next couple days. Bye for now!
