Well, just to make it official, cats are probably the most badasses of animals in the history of animals. I was at the vet today and my cat when crazy, instead of staying back and defending himself when people got close, he went out and attacked everyone, he made me so proud. But anyways, back to the subject.

So, as it seems to have become a habit of mine, a new post means that there are some sick shows coming up. Just when I think I’ve got my summer figured out and that I’ll stop spending money, I find five shows I need to go to. It’s so sad that its great…if that makes any sense.

The first gig i want to mention is this Friday night at Red-Lite. Markus Schulz (who was great Bal en Blanc) is here to promote his new album. Although I haven’t listen to it all, the tracks that I’ve heard are beast and Armin seems to love it also so you know its good.

Perception (feat. Justine Suissa) – Markus Schulz

Do You Dream (Uplifting Vocal Mix) – Markus Schulz

Rain – Markus Schulz (I seem to like every track that shares this name)

Even though most of you guys have plans for Friday already, the beauty of afterhours is that the concert starts around 2:00 am and the Dj arrives around 4ish.

Alright this second show really excites me and I really don’t want to miss it. It’s crazy duo Cosmic Gate and last time they were around, I decided to go see Calvin Harris and Laidback Luke instead and although fun, I was kind of out of it… But anyways these guys are really sick in my opinion.  They play, once again at Red-Lite, on July 30th.

Clockwork (Cosmic Gate Remix) – Deadmau5

Exploration of Space – Cosmic Gate

The Wave – Cosmic Gate

Everything (Cosmic Gate Remix) – Tiësto

Aight so I hope you all enjoy and be sure to let me know if you want to go, concerts alone really aren’t that fun.

As a producer/DJ, you've got to be careful about what you endorse, if not to destroy your own name. Deadmau5's reputation is certainly untouched, even maybe improved with the DJ he recently promoted. Sonny Moore, better known as Skrillex, just released an EP called My Name is Skrillex. I'm completely blown away by this guy's skills. You probably don't recognize his name. I'm relatively certain that I'm not the only one who's never heard of him. Diamond in the rough en esti. Considering this is the first most of us have heard of him, every single song on this release is great. Ok maybe the first 5, I'm not a fan of the last one. I can't wait to see how big this guy is going to become. I think everyone who reads this blog knows how much pull Deadmau5 has in the world of electronic music.
Without further a due, here is the link to his EP. The filetypes are .m4a, so just add them to your iTunes and the music will play.

My Name is Skrillex

Heres his EP's Youtube promotional video.


This is sort of a short post, so here are a few more tracks before I go.

In my opinion, Doctor P's follow up to Sweet Shop has been pretty weak, considering how awesome the song is. Will this remix launch him back into the dubstep spotlight?

Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip - Sick Tonight (Doctor P Remix)

Why has this Tiesto remix not been posted yet? Amazing song, you should have seen this on the site a long time ago.

Muse - Resistance (Tiesto Remix)

And finally, last but not least, here is another Tiesto song to get everyone psyched for the 18th of July. Is it weird to promote an event you won't be attending?

Tiesto - Louder Than Boom (Extended Mix)

Got anything planned for La Saint-Jean? Gareth Emery at Circus. Only 15$. Need I say more? Once again props to Ellis.

Last time I posted, I talked about SOLO working on a mix… well he released it the next day. There’s a lot of cool shit in his mix, like a “Vocal Remix” of Sweet Shop (it’s LEGEND… ARY). Check the tracklist to find it.

SOLO is known for adding vocals to every dubstep song he can, and he basically put together all the best tunes he remixed into a big mix. Enjoy!

INFO

“This is my new concept album/mixtape/EP which contains all original DJ SOLO bootlegs, re-edits, and remixes, along with 5 original rap tracks over dubstep, drum n bass, and hip-hop, and is "hosted" from beyond the grave by the most hated outlaw punk rocker himself...GG Allin!! The goal of this mix, other than to be fun and entertaining, is to draw a clear line in the sand between what used to be considered "dubstep" and the newer hardcore style that has now evolved into something that the original dubstep fans cannot identify with and for the most part, downright HATE. I want to open the doors for hardcore bass music of all genres including dubstep, DnB, electro, and Hip-Hop, to be united without it being subject to someone else's rules and standards. This ain't your father's dubstep...this is BASS PUNK!”

So yesterday I DJed with some insane speakers. It was fun. I mean LEGENDARY. People seemed to like what I played (house music oh damn) and they were pretty pumped until about 3:30 AM when cops came to say hi.

I know I’m corrupted… but I think house music can sometimes be good. David Guetta proves it every time he releases a track and this time he teamed up with Kelly Rowland to produce a great tune. This track is the one people enjoyed the most yesterday (play it loud).

I finally got to listen to LAZERPROOF (a collaboration between Major Lazer, La roux and other artists like Gucci Mane). I have to say it wasn’t that amazing, but some of the tracks were really cool remixes. Sadly, a couple remixes are just mashups that don’t fit that well together, but oh well! Here is my favorite track included in the mixtape. Grab the full mixtape on Maddecent.com.
