Monday, Monday...can't touch that day

My belly is full and yet I still hunger for some brand spanking new music!!  I know some of y'all feel the same so I'm compiling yet another list of dope chunes from the realms of my soundcloud dashboard.  From my PC to your ears, I'm trying to keep you up to date with some of our favorite producers and sounds here at MTH; it's been a Monday tradition for many weeks so let's keep it alive shall we??  Today I've got tracks from Buraka Som Sistema, Steed Lord, gLAdiator and more!  Keep a keen eye out for the free downloads--as always, I tried to work in as many as possible.

Here's a fierce remix from that dude D!rty Aud!o...turn the volume up to 11 for this one, it's SLAMMIN! FREE DOWNLOAD

What you know about H-Town??...naw fool, not the boy band...I'm talking bout HOUSTON. I've never been but the rap game there set it off a few years back and now gLAdiator and Chromatic have swooped up a great lyric from the tallest dude in the business Slim Thug and created a squeaky, bit-smashed dab of glory and guess what?? It's FREEEEEEEEEEE.

Here's a little prog-moombahton from UK producer Harikiri...it's a tad bit lurky which I'm always stoked about and super dark. DIG IT! It's dropping in 2 weeks on Ninthwave Records so be on the look out folks!

Speaking of "lurky" here's a low down bass track all the way outta the windy city. Nader flipped up Juicy J and dropped the son'bitch for FREE DOWNLOAD.

Global bass innovators Buraka Som Sistema are taking their unreal live show on the road in North America in August (including a stop at HARD Summer) and to get folks hyped they're giving away a new track for the best price of all $0. That's right, grab this kuduro heater for FREE and get ready for your mind to be blown.

Are you down with French dance tracks?? I am for sure so I'm always stoked to see the Blisters Boyz in my feed. This one is a sure fire slice of techy goodness with enough bongos to make me happy, it's dropping August 22nd on Birth Records so make sure to buy it then k?? Thanxbi.

Love holding down PDX producers and I really enjoy giving a little cred to the Think2wice Records family. Here's a new track from Ben Tactic which I'm sure will make you thirsty as you're sweating it up on the dance floor. Superbly bubbly with a nice and heavy kick drum throughout and guess what?? It's a FREE DOWNLOAD. Hot damn!! Grab it.

Annnnnnd back to the moombahton...or should I say, back to the moombahsoul. Here's another free track from Phoenix young gun Decade who has been consistently putting out some fire over the last few months. This one is ambient and chirpy and is a perfect cool down track for the coming hot August nights in the Arizona desert.

My friends will tell you that--since I saw them open up for Chromeo back in the summer of 2008--Steed Lord is probably my favorite band out there right now. The baby of the bunch, Mr. Eddie House put together a disco flip of their latest single "Hear Me Now" and the band is kindly giving it away for FREE!!  Just like their FACEBOOK PAGE and click the free downloads tab.

After hearing the above remix I started down the soundcloud rabbit hole and discovered some long forgotten tracks from Eddie. Here's my favorite to wrap up today's blog.

So that's it for now kiddos!! Make sure to support all these producers by following them on soundcloud (give us a follow if you feel like it HERE) and of course check them out on their facebook pages (and ours RIGHT HERE). Hope you enjoy the free downloads, keep your browser pointed right here for more and more new music and other goodies!! Ta ta!

Midweek Productiveness

Just got back from vacation and I feel like at least a thousand bucks!  I'd probably feel like millions if my DVR hadn't missed a bunch of episodes of my favorite show...Call Of The Wildman.  I guess I'll have to catch up with the Turtleman in reruns but for now let's move on to the newest of the new, the hottest of the hot, the boldest of the bold; it's this week's edition of MTH's infamous Midweek Pull.  This week we've got great cuts from the likes of ETC!ETC!, Chong X, FUSS and much much more so let's jump right into it shall we??

The SPTT are big players in international electronica so I was pretty stoked to see this boot pop up on the good ole dashboard. Digging Nacey's classy flip of this already accessible tune, goodness gracious! It's a free download!

Banji Boys' classic gets a little update here from Brooklyn's own Barney Iller along with his homegirl Fucci. Drop this record at your next 3 vs 3 battle will you please?

The homies 2 Deep recently took a little trip to the central coast to play a gig in Salinas and hooked up with that dude PrimeTime for a little pre-game production session and this is the end result. Oh my, it's a FREE DOWNLOAD!

Our favorite trio are at it again! This time Steed Lord have updated the Whitney Houston (RIP) classic, "Thinking About You". Their classic house stylings work perfectly on this flip; it's free on their Facebook for all y'all.

Damn...I got free downloads coming outta my ears! I probably should be holding onto some of these for myself but you know me, I'm such a giving person! Here's FUSS remixing TC's "Jump".

Y'all know I'm a sucker for some Cumbia right?? That's why I really love Chong X lately, he's been blasting some awesome stuff lately and you should check it out!

This remix from ETC!ETC! was featured yesterday on the MTV Hive blog...sooooooo, I'm just jumping on the band wagon I suppose but damn, it's a good one! And what's this??? FREE DOWNLOAD

Last but not least we have the first of what Willy Joy says will be a weekly free track, Free Willy Wednesdays! This week it's a trap remix of Chief Keef.

Well folks that's it for this week's pull. Make sure to get with us on Facebook, twitter, and of course soundcloud so you can keep up with us every second of every day!! You filthy stalkers.

Friday! Friday! Friday!

Man...you people don't even know how lucky you are.  I'm sitting here, on vacation, with a glass of beer in my hand and all I can think about is how necessary it is to my life to get my weekly mixtape blog done.  Wait a minute, maybe it's not you that has a problem it's me...too much vacation??  Is it weird to say I'll be glad to go back to work on Monday?  How likely is it that come Monday afternoon I'll wish I was back on vacation?  I'd say it's a 100% chance...in that case, let's quit the talking and get on to the mixtapes y'all!!  After all, it's Friday, that means it's time to party.










That's it dudes and dudettes...since this is my first mixtape post in 3 weeks I'm reaching into the past and pulling old tapes out for you cause you may or may not have heard them.  That's gonna be it for the week but I promise to be back here bright and early Monday bringing you the newest of the new and the heaviest of the heavy.  Also, June is shaping up to be a great month down on the blog so stay tuned for big and great things to come.  Make sure to check us out on facebook, twitter, soundcloud, and now MIXCLOUD for more amazing things!

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 Pull

A "pull" refers to a service offered by most comic shops where they'll set aside all the titles you're interested in as they are released so you don't necessarily have to come in every Wednesday; your precious issues will always be waiting for you behind the counter.  For those in the know this can be very helpful as particular books will certainly sell out if you are like me and get lazy and/or forget to hit the shop when a popular title is released.  In the case of MTH's Midweek Pull we're taking on the role of the local comic vendor and doing all the work for you; all you gotta do is come on down and hear the hottest tracks of the week.  This week I'm super swamped in the studio so I don't have time to breakdown each pick so just take my word for it and listen to them all you bastards!  I'm doing all the work here and getting no love!!  Listen damn you!!

Steed Lord says hello to 2012!

wassup Iceland??

It hit the mid 70s today in LA where trio Steed Lord has settled but in their Icelandic homeland, it was a chilly/snowy day that they chose to release their latest remix of "Devil In Me" by fellow Icelanders Legend.  The Steeds have promised much for 2012 and I expect them to deliver as this track does, with their classic synth stylings highlighting the great vocal of Krummi Björgvinsson.  Look for the track as a free giveaway on the Steed Lord facebook page; and follow the jump to more from LEGEND.

Legend - Devil In Me (Steed Lord Remix) by Steed Lord

Say it Again Again Again Againnnnn

MTH favorites STEED LORD are at it again with a new video for their track "1 2 3 If You Want Me".

This video is a collaboration with choreographer Sonya Tayeh and really accentuates the Steed's unique out of this world style.

Lost & Found

I've sorta been out of my element for these last two weeks due to the holidays and the heavy amount of drinking that accompanied them so I thought I'd take a few seconds and throw up (pun intended) some remixes that I've been blasting lately.

The first comes from Icelandic powerhouse Steed Lord's Truth Serum Remix Project; Gingy attacks Kali's soaring vocal to deliver this twisted dance floor destroyer.

Steed Lord - Take My Hand (Gingy Remix)


Second we've got Don Diablo bouncing his way through Larry Tee.

Larry Tee - Let's Make Nasty (Don Diablo Remix)


Finally, two producers we're hoping to hear a lot of in 2010, it's Arcade remixing Jay Weed.

Jay Weed - Asimbonanga (Arcade Remix)

(This track is featured on the BeBup Episode #1 compilation EP which you can find HERE.  Best go pick this EP up, it's on FIRE!)
