Akira (Habstrakt Remix) – Koan Sound // Old School Dubstep Feel

Based out of France, Habstrakt has been tearing it up in the underground scene. His FB likes are up to 12,000, his soundcloud has over  100,000 plays. You can Mr. Adam is a up-and-coming for the Europe scene. Let do him a solid and turn him into a up-and-coming here.

 

Here is some info from his agency:

Coming from the South of France, Adam a.k.a Habstrakt was a guitar and keys player before turning his mind onto samplers and grooveboxes very early. He first got into Trip Hop and also wrote music for movies & even theater, but in 2008 he discovered dubstep and drum n bass music, and immediately got involved in production and DJ’ing.

Four years later his tracks are welcomed by many established labels such as Buygore and Never Say Die. Those releases have gained him huge support from some of the biggest names in the the scene such as Flux Pavilion, Borgore & Datsik amongst others. It’s been two years now since he began touring as a DJ throughout Europe, always smashing the dancefloor with a tight, precise yet energetic mix. So far nothing seems to stop him 2012 as he’s now among those to follow closely.’

 

He totally kills it on this new remix of Koan Sound’s Akira. This track has a old-school atmosphere mixed with a new-school, sharp wobble. The remix is pretty laid back and repeats itself in a very pleasent way. What makes this track really unique is the spooky vocals and the earie tone makes the track stand out from anything else.

Crowd Control (Delta Heavy Remix) – Excision & Downlink // Super Heavy Dubstep

As you all know. Describing Delta Heavy as “my favorite dubstep artist” is a understatement. With every track and every EP Delta Heavy packs a exclusive punch into his work and it doesn’t go unnoticed. Each track he releases get more views, more comment, and more attention. He has recently booked some upcoming festival and shows in the UK, US and Belgium.

Delta Heavy’s remix of Excision & Downlink’s – Crowd Control takes the song to the next level. DH takes his classic grinding electronic style and turn this track into a powerhouse of hard dubstep. The only thing I could ask for is if the track was longer.

Download and Enjoy.

Kanye and Skrillex Collaberate on Kanye’s New Album // Super Exciting News for Hip-Hop/ Dubstep Lovers

Kanye and Skrillex have collaborated on a new song, but little information is out about when it will be released. Skrillex told the Daily Beast:

“I did some music with Kanye and from what I know, it’s actually going to be the first song on his new album.”

This isn’t the first time that Kanye has stuck his finger the EDM scene. Kayne recently hand-picked the Budweiser “Made in America” 2-day Festival. The unnamed collab-track will appear on Kanye’s upcoming Cruel Summer album or Kanye’s sixth solo album. Skrillex has achieved so much in the last two years Forbes magazine recently named him the 2nd top-grossing DJ ever, Skrillex has his own label, OWSLA, which has sign artists like Porter Robinson and Sub Focus.

Skrillex spoke to the Daily Beast about his recently publicized relationship with Ellie Goulding:

Even though he’s been living out of a suitcase, Skrillex has been dating the British pop singer Ellie Goulding, whose song “Lights” is currently in the top-10 on the Billboard Hot 100. One of the highlights of HARD was a cameo by Goulding during Nero’s set, with the chanteuse belting out the chorus to “Promises”—the Skrillex remix version, that is. Goulding’s catchy pop anthems provide fantastic remix material for OWSLA’s band of DJs, and this symbiotic relationship is, according to Skrillex, one of the many reasons why they make such a dynamic duo.

“She’s my girlfriend and my lover but also my best friend and if I’m working on something I’ll immediately send her a rough cut, and if she’s working on something she’ll send me a rough, so we’re constantly listening to each other’s shit back-and-forth,” he says with a smile. “I couldn’t imagine not being with someone like Ellie that can share the same lifestyle as me.”

Ellie Goulding can be credited easily as a american idol. Her hits “Lights” and “Starry-Eyed” will never be forgotten by her fans. The remixes will NEVER be forgotten by EDM fans. She is been in the public eye ever since Ellie announced in a interview that she has been datingAmerican dubstep mastermind Slrillex since last december.

Her new album will be called Halcyon.The Album video is explores a small part of each track; ranging from piano ballads to up-beat electronic tracks. All of the tracks are original sounding.

Retro City – Adventure Club (Original Mix) // Another Awesome Dubstep Track

When is Adventure Club dropping the album?? Rise and Fall, Wait, Maybe one more, maybe not, who knows?! Haha, the point is they are dropping killer shit all over the dubstep scene.

I know I say this about every artist who comes through here, but the their music has a color. There style is very there own. They focus on cut up vocal and add around it.This way of building a dubstep track is a obliged and smart trait.

As always the track, Retro City, is awesome and the elects added around the mutilated vocal are poppy, vibrate, and full of life.

I’ll have a video soon of Brainless Beats last dubstep show. This time it’s coming from Hanoi, Vietnam!

Download and Enjoy.

The Cure – J. Cole // Refreshing Hip-Hop

 

I loved J. Coles track Work Out. Perfect choice for a party track and a baby-makin track. This track was jumpin demographics! The Cure takes a Beyonce track from Watch the Throne and completely make it his own. His rhymes are constantly fresh so you never get bored with the beat.

Pound the Alarm -Nicki Minaj // EDM, Pop, Hip-Hop Track

I had lost all hope for Nicki Minaj for a while but after Starships and now Pound the Alarm I would say her “do what the mainstream does” style to her choice in beats is actually paying off. Pound the Alarm is a full fusion of house pop and dubstep influenced build-ups.

The video is entertaining (more for girls than guy) and the clothing is cool, but there. needs to be another element to Nicki to really separate her from the heard. Anyway…

Hey Now (Prod. by Something Silent) – Hoodie Allent) //– Dope Hip-Hop Track

HOODIE ALLEN IN THE HOUSE. Sorry, but All American was an amazing album. No Faith in Brooklyn, Eighteen Cool,No Interruption are still shuffling through the iPod. Hey Now shows a little more atonal beats with slower melody. H. Allen slows down his flow but totally kills it with fresh, melodic, and original.

Download and Enjoy.
