Seriously. This guy is churning out some serious tunage these days. I would say since he released his bleep where he samples the theme music from the Lion King, (called 'King Of Africa' for those of you that don't know) Douster has become a big name in the whole Jungle House/Dancehall scene. Just recently he's remixed Toddla T in yet another stunning piece of work.
Can't share this one, but if you like it, then go get it at Beatport.
In the meantime, he released a limited 100 free downloads of Uucko Riddim to the world a few months back. As soon as I heard this one, the first thing I did was listen to it again. Jungle House meets Ragga dub.
Alright, last post for today. A Goodie Bag, and boy are we overflowing with some serious goodies.
First up; Nero's newest remix of Chase & Status. Not their best remix ever but still excellent and worth putting on repeat for a while. Even though the bit rate says 320kbps, waveform transcode analysis indicates that it's been re-reupped to a rate. This means that someone took a 128 or a 192 and exported it as a 320. Oh well, it still sounds great as far as I can tell, but if you're going to drop it on a big system, you might want to buy it when it comes out.
Next, Last Japan sent out his newest bleep on his blog, NEOFRO (which I recommend you follow), it's a tribal/electro house rendition that might be a bit hard to mix, but it's still got that funky feel to it that he is quickly becoming known for. Called his 'Crash Bandicoot Riddim,' Last Japan is proving himself. I hope he continues to make experiments like this one.
Chew Fu comes back at us with another killer remix. This time he shy's away from mainstream BS and instead goes towards the old school driven world of Yolanda Be Cool and Dcup.
Team Jeuce put out a bootleg remix of Hide & Seek a while back. Never got around to posting it, but here it is now. This is probably the 128582452450523140th remix of this bleep that I've posted, and probably the last unless I hear something phenomenal.
And last but not least, we've got a brand spanking new little bleep from Helsinki 78-82. The Topbillin crew forwarded this one over to me, and it's off their new EP. It is exquisite Nu Disco with flavors of Electro, and House. Enjoy.
Quick little update here. Last Japan has just released his sub bass edit of one of the more creative bootleg cuts from Douster. Make sure you listen to it with good headphones, or with speakers that can really handle bass properly.
Happy Easter everybody! Got more of a basket here than a bag :P. Here we go.
First up we have the best D&B remix of Fake Blood out there from Terravita. Just take Mars, raise the tempo by about 50 bpms, and throw in the crazy D&B drums, and wah-lah, you have a recipe for a fantastic remix.
Then there's a bleep that I heard at Ultra Music Fest no fewer than 3 times from the Bassbin Twins, Rusko, and Steve Aoki. This was blowing up on the blogs a while back, but in case you've missed it, pick up a copy now. It's a Lion King remix. Douster - King Of Africa (Original Mix) [Best Intro bleep I've heard in a while!]
And speaking of Steve Aoki, Daniel Dexter did a fantastic edit of his remix of Gifted from N.A.S.A. It sounds like Crookers took ecstasy and laid down a beat.
Seriously. This guy is churning out some serious tunage these days. I would say since he released his bleep where he samples the theme music from the Lion King, (called 'King Of Africa' for those of you that don't know) Douster has become a big name in the whole Jungle House/Dancehall scene.
