I don't know what to say. other than yes.

2 Righteous Dudes

Sometimes you have to deal with the fact that people want to know how "for real" you are. Generally this means how long you've been doing whatever it is you do or who got you into it.

Nowadays its all about how long you've been raving....and if you are under 21 it just doesn't seem to be possible to live up to the heady days of the early ninties.  Well kids, I bring you your new inspiration: 2 Righteous Dudes.

This is possibly the only father/son electro duo dropping jams on the scene.  I have had the pleasure of hearing one of their sets in Orange County and I found it to be, well, righteous. Basically Pops (DJ Manray) raised Junior (DISH.IT) as a Goa Trance kid.  Here he is in 93 with his "baby sitters:"

They've sent us a Live Mix (getting more and more of these!) and it is totally on point.  Not surprising, because these guys are nothing if not meticulous.

Well, it has come to our attention that WZRDZ have been reposted on birthdaypartyberlin.com by DJ Donna Summer and they have rocketed up to #2 on hypemachine's most popular today with their Smells Like Teen Spirit remix....this breaks their previous record of #6. yay!

We would like to commemorate this this occasion by giving you a free iPhone.  But we can't, so instead we are releasing a free WZRDZ track from the EP to wreak havoc on the interweb!

Get Higher. Belgian Style

This guy from Belgium, HighBLoo, sent this track to us. What can I say? I liked it. It's a good track to DJ in the fidgit vain. I will definitely spin it. Who knows, it could be one of those secret weapon bangers....

I leave it to you to decide....

T&B 'N LA

It may be like going to a foreign country and ordering a cheeseburger, but for some reason we just had to go to see NY Bass Champions Trouble & Bass do their thing in LA (Blow Up LA, that is). And, like a foreign cheeseburger, somehow it tasted that much better.

love lockdown part 2

so, after i posted the youtube of love lockdown, jeff from culture of me ripped the audio and blogged it (aaah)....but at the same time, we were recording an actual version....

right now we're in LA and while in a meeting yesterday we learned that Kid Cudi is one of the writers of Love Lockdown AND Heartless....um, you go kid. again, need to explore bridges, but im damn impressed....

DJ's Are Not Rockstars? Then what are they?

So this guy named Van Scott sends me this email about a new release "Nightlovers" on a label called DJ's Are Not Rockstars. Of course I've heard of it, it's Alexander Technique's label, and he's been hyping it a while now in NYC clubs about town. You may have also heard of the quite satisfying song produced by Lauren Flax, You've Changed, also put out by the label.

So I look at the remixers, and he's got one of my all time faves Acid Jacks, and Chewy Chocolate Cookies (who you really can't hate on cause shit's always tight).

There's a Nick Catchdubs remix too and the original was produced by Alexander himself, with vocals by Van Scott. After i took a listen i realized i've been hearing this song in the club already. What a shocker. Here it is in all its glory, grab it quick before the uploads expire....

oh, and, go brooklyn!
