New Years Top Ten!!!




I recently went to this party in Rotterdam, club Watt, possibly the most depressing and disappointing party I've ever been to. It was supposed to be some kind of New Years party, on the 10th of September, don't bother asking me why, it was a sly attempt at humour by our host Eastpak and the highlights of the party were supposed to be Hot Chip, followed by Goose, who I expected nothing less than a night to remember. Hot Chip started up with "Ready for the Floor" remixed by Soulwax, I believe it was a special edit and it had my hopes high, following this amazing track came a continuous clamor of minimal music that sent me, disappointed, to the smoker's terrace hoping to smoke a joint while waiting for Goose... Around 3am, ther minimal still pumping, I decided to ask the Bouncer whether Goose had died or something, to which he replied that since there weren't enough people they weren't coming, so I left.

The point of all this is that it reminds me of posting a top ten, since Soulwax's remix of "Ready For The Floor" is definitely in there.

Here is what I consider a decent top ten, in no particular order:











And one for the road since we have some kind of blog love going about for the Aston Shuffle:

Always More And More



If you've been to Yuksek's myspace in the last while you would have heard his remix preview of Autokratz's "Always More" from there forth coming EP I think, "Down & Out In Paris and London", it's been on there for a while but the song itself seemed to be nowhere to be found, so, as soon as I layed my hands on it I felt the need to post it.
His signature vocoder and synth hits, along with his little piano solo's gives this song a really Yukseky feel that reminds us he's just been getting better and better lately, evolving his style into what seems to be close to Daft Punk's "Robot Rock" with a lot of tweaks and tricks, and without the boring builds that seemed to take forever :D


Another track I really felt the need to post here was The Aston Shuffle's remix of NASA's "Gifted" which I gotta say really hits the spot on my playlist, especially around the drop at 3.30 or something, making it really worth the wait.
