Scheiße! (quoting Freaky Zekey). How could it take us so long to come up with this one. Couldnt sleep for two nights, asking us where we knew the sample of the new Dipset song from. A techno track.. but which one.. But it turned out to be even better. It’s not just techno, it’s Gabber. Nosferatu, [...]

Dipset reunited for good. First track is out. Scheiße! Cam’ron, Jim Jones and Juelz Santana get together and Salute. Don’t know if the 90ies techno melody is a sample or played Araab Muzik, who produced the track. But as you know, we’re pretty down with 90ies techno, so you [...]

Gucci Mane was one of 2009th hottest in US rap. Diplo musta felt that way too, so he put together a remix Mixtape with constributions by himself, Flying Lotus, Douster, DZ, Mumdance, Benzi, Brodinski, Bird Peterson, Emnyd and others. I didnt really pay attention to Guccis stuff in 2009. To me, Dirty South got a lil uninteresting cause [...]

Its okay to watch the wrap ups of saturdays football matches on repeat when its sunday. Just found out trading the weak commentators for some music is still the better choice. Especially when you watch them games for the fourth time. What I put on my playlist: first, Faithless are back. Its three years since there [...]

Why cant I turn on the computer without reading about Calvin Harris anymore? May be because he’s got a subscription on high chart entries. Just like Dizzee Rascal has. After Calvin Harris did “Dance Wiv Me” for Dizzee Rascal, he hooked him up with the next straight to number one single. “Holiday”. Dizzee went to [...]

Major Lazer’s Hold The Line has good chances of becoming 2009′s most remixed track huh? An all star line-up of remixers did some good work so we put them in a mix. The idea sounded so dumb it just had to be good. One song stretched to 25 minutes and its not getting repetitive. Is [...]

Natalie Storm ain’t afraid of bass. Nor rough & juicy lyrics. Stretch Armstrong made the Bmore bed for her “Hot Fuck”. She got my nose wide open. Natalie demands cash so all we have is a preview. Buying is recommended. If they got their ID in it, it will give The Heatwave some money. Only fair [...]
