Fresh Til' Death

A lot of new shit dropped this weekend, so here I present the best of the best of what I have heard for you. Pretty eclectic post here, a little something for everybody to enjoy.  Take it from Dr. Steve Brule, these tunes are good for your health!

Benny Benassi ft. T-Pain - Electroman (Original Mix)
This track is gonna be huge, not only is Benassi in his early 40s and still cranking out some of the best music of the entire house genre, but he is able to switch up his style and incorporate T-Pain to make this jam more mainstream and enjoyable for everyone.

Lupe Fiasco ft. Skylar Grey - Words I Never Said
Lupe's next album is gaining hype and is pretty much guaranteed to be fire.  This jam is no different, add in the beautiful voice of Skylar Grey and you have an unbeatable track.

Flux Pavilion - Bass Cannon
I'm not sure how new this song actually is, but I heard it for the first time last week.  Real grimey, good stuff from Flux.

Lil Wayne - Green & Yellow
Came out just before the Superbowl, should be the Green Bay anthem for the next year.  Great game, great song.

Start It Off Right!

Departing for a new semester tomorrow, gettin ready to rage not only upon arrival but also in the 6 hour car ride.  I'm gettin geared up with an arsenal of new music at the moment, here are some gems I have stumbled upon in my never-ending search.

Avicii - Street Dancer
New jam from Avicii, absolutely epic.  Unreal progressive track, this guy keeps turning out banger after banger and "Street Dancer" is yet another to add to the young Avicii's resume.

M.I.A. - Internet Connection (Flux Pavilion Remix)
I truly believe that Flux Pavilion can do no wrong, every remix he touches is an instant banger.  Great tune right here, doesn't retain a ton of the original but who cares because it sounds great and Flux has done it again.

Deadmau5 - Get In The Cart, Pig (Marco Belz Remix)
What started out as an experimental Deadmau5 Soundcloud track has gotten the remix treatment from Marco Belz and has successfully been violently catapulted into progressive house banger status.  Thanks to R2R author StudNibs for this jam.

Dubcember Ragin' Playlist!

Someone needs to take me to the hospital to cure me of this dubstep fever.  Dubstep is fucking awesome, but I don't want it to take over R2R, and we'll see how much it really dominates the party scene when I get back to the US of A, because it has a monopoly on it over here in England.  Anyway, to keep all you dubsteppers at bay here's what I got it.  A monster playlist for the ragin' month of "Dubcember" featuring the likes of Rusko, Bassnectar, Nero, Datsik, Flux Pavilion, Vaski, Doctor P, Zeds Dead, and other great artists to get your wub on.  This has pretty much every dubstep track I have been jamming out to for the last month or so, as well as most (if not all) the tracks I put up on R2R.  Hopefully this will tide you over for a while, expect for R2R to get back to it's roots with the electro-house we have all come to love in the next few posts.  Enjoy the playlist.

P.S. If you want nothing but dubstep, sound off!  Leave a comment, drop me an email, comment on the R2R Facebook Page, this blog might reflect the music tastes of the people posting for R2R, but it is for you!  Let us know what you wanna hear!

Best. Weekend. Ever

-

This weekend I met my rage companion Quez to go to a dubstep show at Club Fabric in the heart of London.  We had bought tickets on Bassnectar's webstie thinking it would be a mere Bassnectar show with maybe a special guest or two.  Well, we arrived at Fabric already feeling incredibly "friendly" and ready to go at about 9:30 and after 30 minutes of waiting in line we were let in.  Immediately employees began sprinting around the club stapling pieces of paper to the wall.  When we got closer we realized what we had gotten ourselves into.  The paper contained the schedule for the evenings 8 hour dubstep extravaganza, officially entitled "Beatdown 2010".

18 differents acts performed on 3 stages from 10:00-6:00 in the morning.  We compiled our list of artists to see and executed to perfection.  As we walked further and further underground (the only thing above ground level in this club is the coat check), we got to the almighty Stage 1.  We saw (in order): Mutants, Jagga, Rusko, Doctor P, and Bassnectar.  My favorite performance was Bassnectar, the guy is just insane and his light show was the best by far, his bass literally rocked the place as well.  Second was a tie between Rusko and Doctor P.  Rusko is definitely a crowd-pleaser and his music brought the party, people were going insane.  Doctor P was sick as well, his set surprised me, his shit was so heavy and the crowd was unreal during his set, the place was nuts.  Mutants and Jagga are somewhat lesser known but they were both very very good and we were able to get really close to the stage for both.  Bottom line is this is something that would never happen in America and I am so glad I got to experience this.  How was your Friday night?

Anyway, I could talk all damn day about this ridiculous show, but I'll give you what you're here for.  Some brand new music.  I haven't had a post in a couple days so I've got some real good stuff for you.

Porter Robinson - I'm On Fire (Original Mix)
Porter Robinson has been on here before, but only as a remixer.  This is a little taste of his original work, which is just as good as his remix work.  Robinson is an up and coming electro-house superstar.  Keep an eye on him.

Example - Last Ones Standing (Doctor P Remix)
Come on, there's no way I could have not put some Doctor P on here after seeing how utterly insane his live show is.  Like I said, he is one of the heaviest and grimiest dubstep artists out there, so if you like that heavy shit that bumps like it should, check this jam out.

Nadia Ali - Rapture (Avicii New Generation Mix)
Quickly climbing to the top of the Beatport charts, this jam is a genuine banger and is essential for any pregame or party that wants to achieve total ragetasticness.  Some say that Avicii is like a baby Tiesto, could be true but this track does make him one thing: seriously awesome.

Jamiroquai - Blue Skies (Flux Pavilion Remix)
I've still got the dubstep fever after that epic show.  So here's another fresh ass dubstep track to end this post off.  Totally ragin' and heavy as shit which you can expect on the reg from Flux Pavilion.  Definitely one of my favorite dubstep guys.  Everything he drops is pure fire.

Care to Party?

Slavemon here with some skanky dubstep to melt some brains. As some well know dubstep has blown up the scene in America this year so were sure to see some hot new artists and fresh material comen in on the reg

Here's two essential dubstep tunes from this summer by Flux and Masuka for anyone who truly wants to increase the weirdness without freaking people out too much...

N.A.S.A. (Feat. Kanye West, Santigold & Lykke Li) - Gifted (Masuka Remix)

Freestylers - Cracks (Flux Pavilion Remix)

Two songs released from the UK this year that iv'e been jamming to recently. The first is a great remix of keep the fire by bar 9. Its got a relaxed feel to it and then hits u with a solid drop coupled with some sweet bass wobble.

Goldhawks - Keep the fire (Bar 9 Remix)

the second song by modestep comes straight out of london. Its got a different feel to it starting off with a regular tempo with some classic dub bass then it speeds up and takes you to a whole new level of filthiness

Modestep - Sunlight

Sunday SUPER MEGA ULTRA POST

Alright bitches, I usually have Sunday as "Chill Music Sunday" so everyone can kick back and listen to some chilled out tunes, but you know what?  Sometimes you need change.  So here I present to you a Sunday SUPER MEGA ULTRA Post, 7 BRAND NEW songs for you all to jam out from every genre that I love to cover.  Don't ask, just download.  Hope Kid Cudi was awesome for everyone back at the Dick, he has some new song on Hiphopearly that I can't seem to download because the link is fucked up on the site, but anyways, enjoy the tunes.

Flux Pavilion - I Can't Stop
Flux Pavilion is the shit and so is this song, heavy as shit dubstep banger.  Wherever that vocal sample is from too it's awesome.  This one along withe "Haunt You" don't even hit iTunes or anything until next week.  This shit is as new as it comes.

Flux Pavilion - Haunt You
Another BRAND NEW track from Flux Pavilion.  If you don't like these guys, then you don't like dubstep, straight up.  Dubstep is in the heat of becoming popular in the United States, and I am sure you will see these guys popping up all over everybody's music collections in the States soon enough.

Steve Aoki & Afrojack - Let Me See Your Hands (Mr. Physix Remix)
Two of the hottest in the electronic music game, Steve Aoki and Afrojack.  They have made a few sick songs together but this remix is that new new shit courtesy of Big10HouseMafia.com.  Absolute banger right here.

Matty Light - End of the World
Some American dubstep!  Who knew!  This track is sick, the guy gets some solid vocals in there, hailing from Brooklyn, NY, Matty Light has an awesome name and some awesome beats.  Be sure to get this one, you have to right click on the link to download, sorry.

Kanye West ft. Lupe Fiasco, Pharrell - Don't Stop
First, Kanye is straight killing it these days, when the fuck is his album going to drop?  Second, Lupe Fiasco continues to be one of, if not the best act in the rap game these days, his next album should be the shit too.  Third, flawless production from Pharrell as usual.  Final - an absolutely fantastic rap song.  Download for sure.

TECH N9NE ft. Krizz Kaliko - Bad Season
TECH is back!  After releasing a nothing but mediocre album last year (K.O.D.), he has been coming out with some sick mixtape shit and I am sure his next full length album will be the tits.  If you are a fan of his on facebook you gotta check out some of the stuff he has been posting, great music and some goofy ass videos as it is TECH N9NE.

Yo Gotti ft. Wale, J.Cole, Wiz Khalifa - Look in the Mirror (Remix)
Alright, Yo Gotti is a serious guilty pleasure of mine.  He raps about nothing but cocaine and bitches, but what's not to love about cocaine and bitches?  To add to that, he gets two of my favorite rappers and two of the best these days in my opinion, Wale and Wiz Khalifa, on the track.  These 2 guys owned the mixtape scene this summer and they continue to produce great shit.

That does it for the super, jacked up, mega, ultra post.  Hope you like all dat shit.

Fluxstep

As the weekend rolls in, it's time for a few knock-down, drag out dubstep tracks to hit.  I have been listening to a lot of Flux Pavilion recently as one of the remixes of theirs posted on Dubstepcollective.com had me addicted the second I pressed play (the Chapel Club remix I have included below).  Got that and another sweet Flux Pavilion remix up on here for you all to jam out to.  Let's make this weekend a great one and get ready to rage as usual.

Chapel Club - All the Eastern Girls (Flux Pavilion Remix)
Dubstep banger right here, the original track provides for some nice vocals that everyone can jam out to.  Note: DO NOT listen to these on your shitty computer speakers or anything of the sort, find some good stacks and turn this shit up as loud as you can.  The madness hits around :55.

DJ Fresh - Gold Dust (Flux Pavilion Remix)
The original DJ Fresh track that is remixed on this is absolutely sick as it is.  Didn't bump as hard as I could have hoped though, until the Flux came along.  Flux Pavilion throws the track onto electronic overdrive and makes it WOMP like it's meant to.

Kid Cudi - Pursuit of Happiness (Killabits Dubstep Re-Work)
FRIDAY NIGHT BONUS!!! Kid Cudi is going to be at the almighty Dickinson College tonight, and while I am across the pond and can't join in on the festivities, I can leave you with this sick dubstep remix of one of my favorite Cudi songs to help prepare you mentally for this evening's event.  Enjoy the concert everybody!
