American Dub

I’ve only more recently become a fan of Dubstep. Being a long time junglist, I suppose dark, bass heavy dance music should have been in my blood. I’m not sure why but it didn’t really play out that way. The first licks of dub I heard seemed minimal, boring and un-dance-able. Boy have we come a long way! I suppose I was just waiting for the art form to spread it wings. I’m stoked to present to you this fine example of dub progression and proud to be blogging about American producers Midnight Conspiracy.

Representing Chicago in a big way with this huge remix of Esser’s Headlock. MC has completely transformed this track into a moody, dance floor smasher that pounds your feet with a massive, multi-layered bass synth and kisses your ear drums with crispy hats and reverb soaked snare snaps. This tune in your earbuds will surely put you… In a Headlock!

Weekend Match-Up #3

It's time for the weekend. After a week of very hard work and having to deal with all that business its time to get back with the friends and back to the arts. The sun is blazing here in California, keeping us Californians assured that the Spring is here to stay and encouraging the masses to hit the sunny & sandy beaches in the daytime before hitting the clubs at night. Here are some very selective tunes for you to get ready for your weekend. We picked some gems from our flooded TILT inbox. We even got you an exclusive from Los Angeles Resident DJ Skeet Skeet. If this doesn't start off your weekend on the right foot, I'm not too sure what will! We start off this list with some solid dancefloor heaters, and slowly end the list to some dreamwave so you can end your night on the beach...
Keep it sexy lovers....

Neon Indian's New Single - "Sleep Paralysist"

When we interviewed Alan Palomo at TILT's 2-Year Anniversary last November, he talked about a non-Psychic Chasms single coming out early this year.... and here it is! Hot new track, "Sleep Paralysist" released off Green Label Sound evokes the same dreamstate nostalgia he's known for but I also think this track might be his most accessible to date. If he didn't get enough new fans with his Jimmy Fallon stint, "Sleep Paralysist" should get him some more. Hear the song below and download it for free on Green Label and tell us what you think!

LADIES CHOICE - PASSION PIT REMIXES MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS

Marina and the Diamonds' "I Am Not A Robot" was a huge favorite of mine last year so I was happy to hear Passion Pit had revisited the hit with their own take, adding hints of bmore, electro and even some dreamwave to the mix. The boys of PP have me falling in love with this song all over again. Listen to it below and tell us what you think!

Gorillaz - Two Lane Laptop

Let me brighten up your monday with this badass recut my friend Nathan Cabrera did for Gorillaz' "Stylo" video. The song is DJ Kofi's remix and the edit pays homage to 70's cult film Two-Lane Blacktop! Check it out!

Pre-Party Music for Tonights TILT Event

We have a few tunes and a mixtape to share with you so you can have some pre-party music. Just a little something to get you through your day, before coming out to the show tonight. 1st up we have a mixtape from Los Angeles DJ, LOUISAHHH!!! who will be rockin the decks right after Tommie Sunshine. She is a L.A. resident but her hometown and roots are in NY. You can tell she totally has that NYC acid house sound. I love how her mix for TILTmag.com has a very distinct tribal sound to it. Like a Tiger on the prowl for a Unicorn! Shes very well known for her project with DJ Gina Turner who is also from New York. Together they are known as Staccato and they are taking on L.A. by storm. If you get a chance try to see these girls work their hotness and the decks! If you come out tonight to see he finish off the night you won't regret it.

LOUISAHHH!!! - Unicorn Hunt TILT Mixtape



We also have some killer new tracks from the Legend Tommie Sunshine. These tracks have been catching a ton of buzz. His original track "Dance Among Ruin's" has some very catchy, and sexy vocals from the famous Peaches. I love how Tommie can take any track from any genre and he can add his Acid-House/Electro Midas touch to em! Tommie has a way of turning these hot/pop songs into dancefloor anthems! I hope you enjoy them as much as I!

Tommie Sunshine - Tokyo Pollution [Figure's Analog Reprise Remix] by tommiesunshine

Featured Artist: Cut Copy

If you don't know about Cut Copy by now, its ok, we have you covered. Although you should know about this Australian Super Group that combines Indie and Dance music in perfect harmony! This group has a very special sound that no one can replicate. They are truly one of a kind. We are going to share a few of our favorite songs with you. Some of their 1st songs and a few from their last album.

Cut Copy - Time Stands Still [YSI]

Cut Copy - Hearts on Fire [YSI]

Cut Copy - Lights and the Music (Boys Noize Remix) [YSI]

The Presets - The Girl and the Sea (Cut Copy Remix) [YSI]

CSS - Move (Cut Copy Remix) [YSI]

These are all songs that got us more and more into Cut Copy and their sound. The lead singer Dan Whitford has a pair of lungs on him. His on point, melodic, ooo's, and ahhh's on top of his singing voice makes the tracks mesmerizing. Plus, you gotta love when the sax breaks into some of the tracks from the last album. Heart on Fire being one of those tracks. Ain't nothing like bringing back that old 80's Sax!

Currently Cut Copy is working on their 3rd album, they have "been camped out in a warehouse on the outskirts of Melbourne" going at it. Check out what Modular has to say here. We will be sure to keep you updated on our favorite band as details come out about this 3rd album. It has definitely been a long time coming.

Enjoy

This has to be the 1st time I've heard anyone take a Matt & Kim song turned into a Dreamwave summer JAM! Totally diggin the remix package guys! Keep them hot tracks coming! We will definitely keep everyone posted about their new album as we get more information!

Enjoy!

We have had our eyes on Ladycreme for the past 3-4 years, maybe even longer. I originally picked up a few of their tracks because I liked the Ladytron/Disco/Retro feel they were producing.

LC: We're two guys, Keith and Neil. We're also married.

TILT: Do you regularly frequent Discoteks in NYC? if so what are some of your favs.

LC: Not too much, but we have been fortunate to attend a few of David Mancuso's Love Saves the Day parties. They're always fun and inspiring, and it's amazing that they've been doing it for 40 years. There's also a weekly outdoor party in the summer called "Sunday Best" that's always fun and close to where we live in Brooklyn. Our friend Bethany (also a great disco DJ) is a resident at a monthly party called "Kiss & Tell" also in Brooklyn that is dangerously fun for a weeknight.

TILT: Booze, Beer or other?
LC: yes, yes and ...

TILT: Do you frequent Roller Derbys or Strip Joints?

"This is a journey...this is a journey into sound...a journey which along the way will bring you new color, new dimensions, new value..." Ruckazoid does just that with his music. This time and space traveler has reached beyond the boarders of our universe to bring us the best in Galactic Spacedust Funk. With a new flavor. Combining the older sounds of retro synths and the future sound of Mega-Bass, Ruckazoid has stopped on the planet earth for this moment to deliver and save the earth from that old warn out sound, and he's come with a sparkle, and her name is Diamond Z. For those of you who don't know. Now you know.



Ruckazoid & Diamond Z have been heavy at work. We are excited to tell you that they have givin us exclusive permission to debut 2 huge new tracks to share with everyone. 320kbps and very DJ Friendly. These tracks are straight out Intergalactic HEAT!

"If you want my love" is a smoothed out funk jam that has a taste of those old school synths that Prince used to rock. This a the jam that you need to bump in car, in traffic, or for those long travels through space in the spaceship.

Ruckazoid - If You Want My Love [YSI]


"Hello" is one of those club hits that smacks you in the face. Like "why'd you hit me for" BOOM! Shit, you would think this was a MSTRKRFT hidden track! The Ruckaziod comes strong with this Banger! Diamond Zoidal's sexy vocals helps push this track into the instant classic category! This is a track that I need to see be performed in person. For you L.A. music lovers Ruckazoid & Diamond Z will be performing LIVE at Nokia Live March 11th! Be sure to get your pre-sale tix now.

Michael Jackson - Beat It Short Circuit Remix/Captain EO Release at Disneyland

ITS TIME! Short Circuit one of TILT's favorite producers has remixed the very, very, CLASSIC Michael Jackson song, BEAT IT! Just in time to celebrate the release of Captain EO 3-D now back at Disneyland STARTING TODAY! That's right. Everyone better get on that! You also better be sure to pick up this one of a kind remix as well! Short Circuit did this song real proper! He added his own flare to this classic without destroying it! MJ would be pleased if he was still around. In fact, i'm possitive if MJ were still around, he would be very much into the Dreamwave sound! How sick would it be to see the King Of Pop enjoying artists like Valerie, Grum, The Twelves, Keenhouse or Short Circuit in concert. Then busting the Moon Walk and starting dance circles at TILT events! Shit would have been so ILL! MJ we miss you man, you will forever be in our hearts. You have forever changed our lives and music in an infinite way. "Rock With You" is the original Disco/Dreamwave track! I'm so glad Short Circuit has brought us another level of Dreamwave to MJ's and his music. I can't wait till he maybe takes up a few more MJ tracks. Do it son! I love the fresh re-vamped vibe you did to this track! This is hands down one of my favorite Short Circuit tracks to date.

Michael Jackson - Beat It (Short Circuit Remix) [YSI]

If you like this track you will most definitely love the newer remixes and original tracks that Short Circuit has done recently. His original songs are like Robotic Dreamwave Lovesongs that have a Disco/Dance/Electro backbone to em. Something that can get you movin on the dance floor and will romance your lady all at the same time. These are the kind of songs you just can't pass up in life. Be sure to catch Short Circuit at the next TILT event! He'll be performing side by side with the legend Tommie Sunshine! RSVP here!

Fabian - Heat (Short Circuit Heatstroke Edit) [YSI]

Keenhouse - Mecho Maniac (Short Circuit Remix) [YSI]

Enjoy

P.S. - Thanks to the head guys at the Disney Machine! For listening to our prayers and answering them. Some one at Disneyland must read TILTmag.com ! Check out our past Captain EO post from June of last year here.

Mixtape Monday w/ Audrey Napoleon

If you live in L.A. and you go to shows like Control at the Avalon, Live at the DragonFLY, or Dance Right, you have seen Audrey Napoleon behind the decks or dancing her ass off on the dancefloor. This hot, hip, and upcoming DJ is hard to miss, she has looks that kill and a mixing style that goes deep into dance music, and its a style very few women DJ's rock these days. She recently dropped us this incredible mix that takes you deep into the wild weekend nights.

Audrey Napoleon - "For Demonstration Use Only"

Not only is this seasoned DJ known to rock Los Angeles, she's known to rock the decks worldwide. Recently I know she was in Vancouver B.C. Djing at Vancouver's newest nightclub located in the heart of the Granville nightclub district. Just in time for the Olympics. Very nice! I know that same week she also opened up for BBC Radio One's Kissy Sell Out! This girls on a roll! Check this out! Audrey will be opening up for the amazing Mr. Tommie Sunshine at our next TILT event March 4th and we can't wait for her to rock TILT proper for the 1st time! Finally! Be sure to keep an eye on this rising star, and pick up more podcasts of her's here! I know shes drops them at least once a month for her growing fan base. Cheers girlie, keep coming strong with it! XOXO If you see her at the next party, be sure to get this girl a shot of Patron!

TILT March 4th w/TOMMIE SUNSHINE @ SPACELAND

TILT in association with Ultra Records, Everyday & Blow Up L.A. present Tommie Sunshine! That's right, one of the Best DJ's/Producers in all of Dance Music will be taking over TILT at Spaceland here in 11 days! Downtown Lobby said it best here:

"Not too many people from the current Justice/MSTRKRFT era may be familiar with Tommie Sunshine and his extensive contribution to the electronic music scene, but for you that do know him, then you know the man bumps some intense bass. Just his Myspace page alone has tons of his remixes of artists like Major Lazer, Crystal Method, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs."

We have written about Tommie here at TILTmag.com a few times, sharing how much influence his music and ground breaking sound has changed me as a musician and a business man. The dance music spark that came from Tommie ignited a Disco Inferno called TILT. We absolutely cannot wait for Tommie Sunshine to come back to L.A. to save us from the tired usual songs that have been taking over Hollywood Dancefloors. We are ready for the Infamous, Classic and Original DJ to show us why we like Disco/Dance/Acid House, its for the dancing!

Tommie has hooked us up with some recent releases to share with everyone to show he's ready to come correct!

Cause I'm Feelin It - A Mix for the Weekend

Photo by: Mike Woodward

There's nothing like a beautiful day outside when your feeling under the weather. Although its nice to see the sun and its warmth and it puts me in a better mood. Winter in California is slowly breaking from its cycle and we are getting little sunny tastes of Spring. So many good, sunny, and awesome times are yet to come. I'm soo ready for the "Deadbeat Summer." I'm so over the cold/flu season about now, and I'm ready to be in full health for the rest of the year. Here are some Dreamwave and slower songs that will help you get through the transition of the seasons. I gotta give some mad credit to Binary and their incredible blog for sharing their great taste in Dreamwave Music. No other blog out there stays as consistent with Dreamwave as they. Any time I'm feelin burnt out and tired of those hard dancefloor bangers, I turn to them. One can only take soo much banging. Nothing but LOVE for the Binary Blog coming correct with those more melodic, 80's nostalgic, synth-pop, Dreamwave tunes. We can't wait to drop some new Short Circuit songs (Check back Monday) & we can't wait for Nightwaves to drop their new album coming out soon!

Now for the weekend jams. 8 songs. Perfect for a full CD or a good ipod playlist.

Justin Faust - Holdin On [YSI]

Delphic - This Momentary (LightsoverLA remix) [YSI]

The Third Wave - Down On Me [YSI]

Air - So Light Is Her Footfall (Breakbot Remix) [YSI]

Die Antworrd - $0$ [YSI]

Jensen Sportag - Power Sergio [YSI]

Neon Indian - Deadbeat Summer (Afghan Raiders Remix) [YSI]

The Xx - Shelter (Flinch Remix) [YSI]

Links to the artists above are below.
Make sure to give them some love & go buy the albums now.
The Xx remix by Flinch is a quality tune. It has a really solid Loungestep (Lounge/Dubstep) feel to it. Some would call it Luv Step. I just call it a bad ass tune.

Justin Faust - Delphic - The Third Wave - Air - Breakbot - Die Antwoord - Jensen Sportag - Neon Indian - Afghan Raiders - The Xx - Flinch - Lights Over L.A.

New Video for Chiddy Bang's The Opposite of Adults and Gorillaz Remix

I came across Chiddy Bang last year on accident, during one of those Internet k-holes I've talked about before, where I was looking for a song in particular and discovered something else that I ended up getting really into. That time I was looking for something to ease my Yelle craving and found myself falling deep down a rabbit hole with Chiddy Bang waiting for me at the bottom with their Yelle-sampled track, "Fresh Like Us." I had to find more about this Philly hip-hop duo, comprised of rhyme master Chidera Anamege rapping over DJ-Producer Xaphoon Jones' perfectly remixed indie hits. Soon after, their mixtape "The Swelly Express" fell into my iTunes' regular rotation.


Passion Pit, Radiohead, MGMT, Sufjan Stevens, Belle and Sebastian have all gotten the Chiddy Bang treatment. I have to say I love these guys! Their spin on some of my all-time favorite tracks bring a whole new vibe to the songs and they just put me in a good mood whenever I listen to them. Check out this hilarious video they just released for "The Opposite of Kids" and their remix of Gorillaz' "Stylo." Be sure to pick up their EP which drops on February 22. You can pre-order it here.



Gorillaz - Stylo (Chiddy Bang Remix) (YSI)

Deadmau5 Dubstep Project?! Dub5tepthingie

We have been a fan of Deadmau5 for YEARS and following him on facebook for quite some time now. Recently over the past 2-3 days he's posted some goodies on facebook for us. It looks like Mr. Deadmau5 is going all Dubstep on us AND IT SOUNDS AMAZING! I'm not to sure if this is some sick joke, is it really Joel Zimmerman Was his FB hacked and is some pulling a fast one on us?! Is it to good to be true? We hope not! Deadmau5 has always been cutting edge and always comes correct on the production level. If this new Dubstep project is true then this just shows how diverse Joel is. If this is all a big hoax, that means we just wasted your time and 5 min of your life you will never get back. I guess if it was all a sham it couldnt be worse then all those fake Daft Punk Tron Legacy tracks floating around, or like that fake ass Justice track (Begining of the End) that gave me a heart attack. Will these songs go up on the Wall of Shame with the rest of the counterfeits or are we all in for an incredible Deadmau5 Dubstep Journey!


BTW, can someone stop these fakes emulating the sound of famous artists and claiming its an original. This would all be slightly acceptable if it was like a prank from Aphex Twin, but its not. It's a bunch of people who lie to be "cool" and to prove what? It just corrupts the music blogosphere and gets everyone excited for nothing. OK I'm done ranting now.

So lets enjoy this Deadmau5 new music high while it lasts. Since these songs did come from his personal Facebook we are considering this to be a reliable source.


Dub5tepthingie3 by fuckmylife

Quote from the Deadmau5 Facebook:
"ha. making dubstep.... it's actually kinda fun."

Seems like he may just be experimenting, maybe he's looking for fan support before moving forward with the project or song. Let him know what you think HERE.


Enjoy!

Featured Artist: Phonat

Phonat was 1st introduced to me by Discodust last year. I've been all about them ever since. The have a serious Daft Punk feel, but without the robot masks. This London based Italian electronic musician really knows how to come correct not only with his music but their music videos are right up our alley! This is some visual eye candy right here, bringing back the old school vibe with the newer 3-D animation! It's sooo sick! Check out there new video below!



Music video for "Love Hits The Fan" by Phonat, taken from his debut album. Directed and produced by Rocco Pezzella , Andrea Staiano, Francesco Castellani for the "Savants Collective" (c) MofoHifi Records 2010.


Love Hits The Fan by Phonat

We strongly suggest you go our and pick up Phonat's album! Some have considered it to be one of the best albums of 2009! One of our all time favorite songs by him is a collabo effort they did with Super Mal. Although its an older track its a track that rocks our world. We just can't get enough of Phonat's Glitchy Disco Style!

Featured Artist: Mix Master Mike

Hands down 100% without this next artist I, Mike Woodward, would have never taken up DJing, would have never picked up the decks, or taught myself how to DJ. The 1st time I heard Serial Wax Killer, Mixmaster Mike was on the Beastie Boys Album Hello Nasty. From then on I was obsessed with the Scratch and Turntablist sound. Until that moment, I had never heard another DJ wreck the decks like Mix Master Mike does. He is the original DJ; he can kill any DJ in any battle. He became DMC Champion of 1992, 93, 94, Titles with DJ Q-Bert & Apollo until he was asked to step down from the competition, later that year becoming a judge with his Inivisbl Scratch Piklz Team. Everyone knows there is no stopping Mix Master Mike. He has taken every level of DJing and has mastered it like no one else can.

With his latest installment of Mixtapes he's dropped on his website www.MixmasterMike.com he has done it again, he's come correct more then ever! Napalm Rockets a Dubstep Combat Strike crushes every thing any other Dubstep DJ has ever done! His scratches, on top of his song selection is MASSIVE! I dare anyone to even come close to this mix! The only person I could even see coming close to this skill level would be DJ Craze. Commonly most DJ's only mix, they don't know how to come correct with scratching, juggling, busting transforms, along with hundreds of other Turntablist tricks as Mix Master Mike does.

Here is a few samples of what I'm takin about!
These are a few of our favorates, taken from the Naplam Rockets Mixtape

Mix Master Mike - THE ART OF REVOLUTION [YSI]

Mix Master Mike - I BEAT MUFUCKAZ [YSI]

Mix Master Mike - TOPSHELF [YSI]

Mix Master Mike - HOODZ IN BELGIUM (Jamrock Refix) [YSI]
