Hey dudes, I decided to remix a Grimes song the other day as she's been getting a lot of attention and I could pretty easily adapt the song to the style I'm going for right now. I'd appreciate it if you could give it a listen and let me know what you think, since this is the first remix I've been happy enough with to show people:

Nice, man. It comes together really well at that 1:2x mark. I also couldn't actually sit through the whole original song, but listened to yours twice.

The funk box at the sullivan room on Sundays is promoted towards the younger generation of house dancers. There are a ton of youtube videos for it. In a similar vein, the Shelter on Sunday afternoons historically has had really good dancers and a welcoming crowd, although I haven't been to the latest incarnation that has started up a few months ago. Here's an article on the shelter (although be forewarned things have changed a lot since this was written!): http://www.djhistory.com/features/gimme-shelter-2007-0 . If you like the jus-ed etc type of house that crew's clubhouse parties often have good dancers. But really, there are talented dancers at all sorts of events.

Awesome, thanks man! I've been dying to see some house dancing in the flesh instead of just on youtube or in the awkward attempts of me and my friends haha.

thanks bro, glad you like it. i tend to agree that the source (aside from the vocals) isn't super exciting and i wanted something with a less disjointed beat to throw in a dj set.

Heard willy joy drop this last uhall concert I went to?

http://soundcloud.com/torrotorro/buraka-som-sistema-bababa

Was wondering who did the remix, torro torro are a funny group of guys but listening to this not hopped up on four loko its less exciting.


http://soundcloud.com/jokers-of-the-scene/jokers-of-the-scene-in-order-3

found this bouncing around soundcloud, had heard of jokers of the scene somewhere. This Remix is super chill and their (Saville and Olins)EP has been great deep house so far.

Pretty sure the remix he played was the Caspa, I remember something more dubsteppy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMeIy-cBejc

This Rompe Bootleg was his standout track though:

Life would be simple in the forest except for Cyril Sneer. And his life would be simple except for The Raccoons.
So I posted a while back about putting together a nu-disco/elektropop show together (Fear of Tigers, The Magician, Tracasseur-type stuff). The problem is I myself am not a dj, nor do I know anyone who could dj such a show...so I'd have to hire someone. Because its a specific genre I'm targetting, I'd want input on the tracklist. Is this considered "bad form" when it comes to hiring a dj?

I suppose I could just present it as a particular music night, and not focus on the dj aspect at all, in which case I could just put a solid mix together...?

(this is in Toronto, if it matters)

The solution is to either figure out to DJ the show or find a DJ who plays that type of music. Hiring a DJ to play a specific type of music that normally doesn't, and then including a tracklist probably wouldn't jive well.

He has a really unique sound. It definitely has a lot of the qualities of mainstream dubstep but has a pretty funky quality to it. The only artist I can think of that's truly similar is Pretty Lights (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wCgxkQj_Qo).

i dont think that it would be hard to find a dj that plays that kind of stuff in toronto. there are always oodles of bedroom djs (myself included) looking to play out. Finding someone reliable and skilled might be hard but if you are 'hiring' (ie. going to pay them) and are handling all the promotion and such yourself, it's a pretty sweet deal for anybody you might find. Just advertise and talk to people and listen to their mixes.

also just be willing to collaborate. there's a big difference between handing a dj a tracklist and working with someone who already likes the kind of music you're thinking of. plus, if they're a dj and you're not, there's a distinct possibility you'll find someone with better taste/knows what works on a dancefloor better than you do. No offense or pretentiousness intended but remember that those kinds of things are a dj's job

Thats a good approach. Maybe I'll post something on CL asking about any djs interested in collaborating on putting together a nu-disco show. That sets the stage for the type of music, and that I'm looking to work together on it.

And on that note, some awesome tunes:

Man this video makes me want to go rage. Also, if you are looking for some additional funk with a little hip hop, check out his album "Filling Up the City Skies" Disc 2. Hot Like Sauce is particularly good. You can download all of his music for free off of his website, which is pretty rad.

Gucci Vump is Brodinski and Guilliame from The Shoes and god drat are they incredible. I've been obsessed with Brodinski since I heard "Let the Beat Control Your Body" but the new Gucci Vump (G. Vump) collaboration "Feeling" is fantastic - I've been getting really tired of the progressive house, uninspired crap that is being pumped through the scene so it is refreshing to hear some people making actual music.
