Haunting Melodic Lovestep

I guess I’m a few months behind on this one, still Gladkill’s “haunting melodic lovestep” remix of Metric’s, “Twilight Galaxy” has easily become my latest favorite (dubstep) track! I simply love it. Not too hard, not too soft, it puts you in a nice peaceful mood that feels just right. √+

Enjoy the free lossless download from the Soundcloud player:

 

Now for some heavier tracks, I give you the latest from my favorite artists at the the bottom of the alphabet, Zeds Dead and Zomboy. FYI, the Zeds Dead download is sh*tty, so much that I haven’t even bothered to grab it. The Zomboy download is an obvious transcoded rip (although not the worst of them I guess) – I’ll repost them when they’re officially released in 320.

Sabi – Wild Heart (Zeds Dead Remix)

 

Nadia Ali, Starkillers, & Alex Kenji – Pressure (Zomboy Remix)

Take A Break

If you were following dubPhonics on Facebook, you’d already be bumping Zeds Dead’s latest remix of Aretha Franklin’s “I Say A Little Prayer”. The already serene lounge-track is given the high pitch vocal makeover while a smooth dubby-flow makes this one a good tune for any coffee break.

Get Down With Uppermost

We got some new grimy goods from Bassnectar (although it’s not very new, just decided to throw it up here) and if you guys are really looking to get filthy, Doctor P and Zeds Dead are serving up some wompy remixes that should satisfy the dirtiest of tastes √+

• Bassnectar – Wildstyle EP (Full CD) [82 MB]

• Blame – Star (Doctor P Remix)

• Plan B – Love Goes Down (Doctor P Remix) (metal jam at the end?)

• Zeds Dead – Rude Boy

• Zeds Dead – Rude Boy (Mr. Vega Angry Bass Monster Remix) (plays well following the original above)

Keeping up with glitch-steppin’ Skrillex, he’s got some new funky wompin’ beats for our enjoyment.

• Skrillex – Cat Rats

Course, when I heard Danger had a mix of Nero’s “Me & You”, I was all over it. Kind of funny though, sounds a bit cheesy with a beat and synths sounding like they were ripped straight from the 80s. Love it.

• Nero – Me & You (Danger Remix)

Uppermost has been stealin’ the show here lately with his huge sound – as you may have noticed in his “Cake Shop Is Dope” track I posted up earlier. So, as per request, I’ve uploaded an 8-track compilation for all you electro/bass-heads out there, just his work though, no remixes. I’ve found it sounds a lot like Glitch Mob meets Wolfgang Gartner meets Skrillex – with a hint of trance here ‘n’ there. But it doesn’t matter how I describe it, cause you ought to just download the comp! Another note to you impatient types out there, a lot of these songs break off into brief but oh so welcome breakdowns/transitions (“Sound Box” drops into an awesome deep-house beat @ 3:00), but you’ll see for yourself soon enough. A Massive Check Plus goes to this one!

• Uppermost – Compilation (Full CD) [120MB] √+++

Ellie Goulding – I thought I’d heard it all, then I heard this chipmunk cover of her “Lights!” track. I seldom post hip-hop, but I really liked the beat on this one.

• Ellie Goulding – Lights! (Potomac Boys Club Remix)

Zeds Alive!

I don’t post too much hip-hop/rap on here but every once in a while I’ll come across a tight track that’s too good to pass up on passing on. Ill raps spit over dope beats – I wish I could be more thug for this post… naw.

• Zeds Dead ft. Omar Linx – Out For Blood √++

Hauntober!

Alright I got a good mix coming your way today, with the help of some friends :] including a few new club banger tracks and a CD start your week off with…

Of course, with my absence on here, I’m a little behind in bringing you some new big tracks from the likes of Wolfgang Gartner! His new bit is pretty damn tight, oozing his trademark glitchy-haunted style out of every note. Definitely gonna be hearing this one mixed in just about every house mix in the coming weeks.

• Wolfgang Gartner – Illmerica (Extended Mix) √++

Keeping up with the dark sound, I heard this wompy dubstep mix of CocoRosie’s “Werewolf” and I honestly get chills to how wicked it sounds! (And if you’re wondering like I was, she does sing, “Yea I suck dick,” ha).

• CocoRosie – Werewolf (Omega Remix) ☠

Zeds Dead is making a pretty good name for themselves in the dub scene. I gave you taste of their work a while back with their epic remix of Blue Foundation’s “Eyes On Fire”. I figured they deserve some better recognition, on here at least, for their grimey, wompin’ beats! Here’s to, what I feel is, a great sampler: √++

• Dragonette – Volcano (Zeds Dead Remix) (love the chorus @ 2:00)

• Zeds Dead – White Satin

• Radiohead – Pyramid Song (Zeds Dead Illuminati Remix)

• Massive Attack – Paradise Circus (Zeds Dead Remix)

Speaking of Massive Attack, I came across this amazing (non-dubstep) remix of “Paradise Circus”. Very ambient/down-tempo, lovin’ it.

• Massive Attack – Paradise Circus (feat. Hope Sandoval) (Gui Boratto Remix) √++

So I meant to post this guy a few weeks back, no sense in not, right? Wait for the sweet electro drop @ 2:23, it’s electro at its best, imho. (Thanks NaveeDJ for showin’ me this one)

• Felguk – Side By Side (Felguk Intro Mix)

A few months back, Laidback Luke quietly released a very tight (less effeminate than the original) electro/Dutch mix of Bellatrax’s “I Can’t Help Myself”. It’s got a great build throughout the song.

• Bellatrax – I Can’t Help Myself (Laidback Luke Remix)

Keeping up with the infamous Skrillex, he’s got a newish track out, mixing vocals with his unique style, blasting hectic drums beats at you, then he drops the womps on you, and trust me they drop!

• iSquared – Hey Sexy Lady (Skrillex Remix)

Romanian musician, Edward Maya, released this piece as his first single last year (Oct 2009) and it apparently was a pretty big hit across Europe (reaching #1 on over ten charts, only #93 on the US’). I’d never heard it till recently, but I thought it was kind of a nice refreshing track with a interesting incorporation of an accordion that truly makes this a unique song amongst the progressive house genre.

• Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina – Stereo Love ft. Alicia (Extended Mix)

Breakbeat masters Stanton Warriors got their hands on Sub Focus’ track “Rock It”. They certainly do! It has the typical high energy sound of breakbeats with a twist that resembles Daft Punk’s “Discovery” CD (think “Aerodynamic”).

• Sub Focus – Rock It (Stanton Warriors Edit)

The new Magnetic Man self titled album is pretty tame in terms of the dubstep genre’s unbound sense of experimentation, and it’s certainly no attack on the charts (perhaps exempting “I Need Air”) – despite the supergroup’s individual potentials and the presence of vocalists including Katy B. However, that’s not to say there aren’t some great tracks to keep you listening all the way through (most of it is instrumental btw). I really enjoy it as a sort of background beat (for the rainy weather here). So give this one a listen, but make sure you have a subwoofer of some sort, otherwise you’ll just find yourself in a lot of treble (ha).

• Magnetic Man – Magnetic Man (Full CD) [156MB]

I Like the Groove, but I Digress

Ratatat had a leak on their promo CD pretty early, it’s more of the same in the best way! Look out for its official release June 8th.

• Ratatat – LP4 (Full CD) [100MB]

Some amazing dubstep pieces I can’t get enough of.

• Blue Foundation – Eyes On Fire (Zeds Dead Remix) (Awesome dub @ 4:13!)

• Deadmau5 – Faxing Berlin (Grifta Dubstep Remix) √++

New bangin’ electro house track from bigs, Tiësto and Diplo!

• Tiësto feat. Diplo – C’mon (Original Mix) √++

Hip-hop and rap, one’s an speedy poppin’ beat the other a dark underground street beat/grind.

• Felguk – 2Nite feat. Sporty-O (Original Mix)

• Notorious B.I.G. – Suicidal Thoughts (Lorn Remix)

Louis La Roché back with some new lighthearted tracks and remixes, amped up and breaking out and away from his quintessential French house sound that I’ve grown used to hearing

• Louis La Roché – Malfunction (Original Mix) √++

• Basement Jaxx – Raindrops (Louis La Roché Rework)

Always something new with Crystal Castles, too much to keep up with really but these two sorta stuck out.

• Crystal Castles – Trash Hologram (Zelenka Remix)

• Crystal Castles – Trash Hologram (Zelenka Dark Dub)

I found this song while hunting for Mt. Eden Dubstep’s remix of it, kindof a nice Morgan Page-esc bump to it.

• Delerium feat. Sarah McLahlan – Silence (Niels Van Gogh and Thomas Gold Remix)

Just some extras in the playlist. Heard the first song in the Electric Daisy Carnival 2010 Official Trailer (which looks amazing)…”but I digress”

• Anhken – Green Line (Ronski Speed Remix)

• BSOD – This Is The Hook (Original Mix)

• Larry Tee & Princess Superstar – Licky (Hervé Radio Edit) √++

A video for a great song I stumbled upon but can’t find a HQ download (other than Youtube ripping)
