SYMPHONIC CLASSICAL DUBSTEP
Let’s start Dubstep Monday early! This will not be to everybody’s tastes and the purists on both sides, Dubstep & Classical music, are likely to hate it but I like to chronicle stuff like this. It’s not always great, like the Britney track, but it’s great to see how far Dubstep is being stretched and how almost, universally, it can be applied. I think some of this...

A whole zip with more than 100 Cumbia loops Free!! Basically it is the work of some of the coolest and most creative neo cumbia producers around.

The result is a dope Library called CUMBIA BASS BEATS with famous signatures of well known masters...

Club-Ready Global Bass Mixes by Government4000,...
As a DJ, I have great appreciation for a well executed mix. It takes great skill, taste and talent to create a satisfying mix that world listeners and dancers would want to revisit again. The good mix must have a track selection that tastes good mixed in a way that sounds good and delivered in a way that feels good. Now believe me when I say that working with global bass tunes can be challenging...

Video: interview with Schlachthofbronx
We met Ben and Jakob in the famous red boat Le Batofar, in Paris, and we had a great time while talking with them. But the highlight of this evening was definitly in front of them playing.

SUNDAY MORNING SUBLIME : ANTHONY VALADEZ MIXXTAPE
Found this via some Californ-I-A sunshine rays ;-) I’ve really been digging this in a big way all this week as it’s just so full of so many choice cutz and reminds me a lot of some of the sort stuff I use to love and play when I started out as a dj around 5 years ago. It reminds me of the Madlib and Blue Note stuff and so it gives me a nostalgic feeling even though I never actually...

Munchi Invades Chicago, Today!
Chicago, I know you’re cold. You’re freezing. It’s windy and the snow that started as a winter wonderland is now a grimy, soot covered wasteland.
