Dark's Belated track of the week: Dexx & Banana Bomber - Gorilla Funk

Yes, yes, yes, I know that I don't usually post on a, what is it? Friday? But seeing as the blog is rather devoid of life, I thought i'd treat those who actually view the blog to something, a little different. For it is...

DUBSTEP TIME!



I know next to nothing about these guys, but all I know is this is so Funking dirteh that my car speakers nearly had a heart attack last week due to this song. :)

Cheers,

Dark.

Nite's Recommend Track For You-Towa Tei- Funkin For Jamaica (Da BMR Remix)

My PC is down so im limited to what i can give you guys for a post. So today i'll post a Remix of My new obsession: Towa Tei-Funkin For Jamaica. BMR (Aka Boris Dlugosch,who made the epic club mix of digital love) takes a spin on the original track and makes it into a 8 minute funk fest, giving it almost a MAW feel to it. compare it with the original and you'll see what i mean. (its not on youtube. you need to go to http://theworldisdaft.wordpress.com/2010/07/22/funkin-for-jamaica/ DL the EP and youll see what i mean)
Enjoy the treat!

Dark's Track of the Week: Aufgang - Dulceria

Yes yes yes, homeladies and gentlemen! Darky's back wioth a brand new track (of the week).

This week, after a bit of a post gap, due to some personal issues, i've decided to show off a track from a band that many of you may not know at all! Even I am not too sure exactly who they are, but my research shows that the band consists of Francesco Tristano and Rami Khalifé.

They are what I can only define as soul house, due to the house music background, and simple pianos and chicago influences. This particular track is one of their newest, "Dulceria", which is currently being used for a remix competition, as well as appearing on their next album, "Air on Fire".

Overall, I quite like the track, mind that it does seem a little out of sync sometimes, but I can forgive it, especially for that strange vocal and pianos!

As a bonus to this post, here is my own remix of this track, which I feel is slightly more organised than the original:

Aufgang - Dulceria (Dark DJ Remix) by Dark DJ

Cheers,

I love DNB

I know i said i would post on the weekend, but the cold is a bitch.
Anyway, for most of the summer, Earl has been listening almost exclusively to the fast paced, bass thumping style know as DNB.
Now, from what i have gleaned off of Wikipedia, i have been listening mostly to liquid funk, which is what artists like Netsky, High contrast and Mistabishi produce.
I have Produced a couple of Dnb tracks of my own, but since i dont feel like doing the whole SSP thing, you can check out my souncloud(s).
and since im still a bit new to the genre, i would love it if you could recommend some artists in the comments section.
so anyway, here is a small tenmix of my favorite tracks sofar.(im getting better at mixing, but i still have a few glitches)
Track Listing:
Sub Focus - Follow The Light
Danny Byrd - Gold Rush
Imogen Heap - Headlock(High Contrast Mix)
MGMT - Time To Pretend(High Contrast Mix)
Netsky - Smile
Mage - Summer Love
Madmen & Madmen & Poets - Scandinavian Sunday

P.S. if you are ever having a bad day, listen to Lovlee Dae by Blaze, it will cheer you up immediately

Some remixes I like ATM

Yeah. That's pretty much what my post will be about today.

First of, Michael Jackson's Say Say Say (Moonchild Bootleg)

Michael Jackson - Say Say say (Moonchild Bootleg) by Moonchild

Epic. Just plain epic. 2 weeks ago was 1 year after Michael Jackson's death. I was going to do a post, but I didn't have anything really ready. So yeah. I love how Moonchild filters the song. Epic remix of an epic artist by an epic artist ;D.

Saturated Phat Impact (Treasure Fingers Edit) by The Phantom's Revenge

Next remix is Treasure Fingers Edit of Phantom's Revenge. I've become addicted to it. It's pretty good.

That's all I have for today. Hope you enjoyed my post! :D
