Zedd

Zedd is from Germany. He produces electro house. He's pretty damn good. That's all I know. Enjoy.


Diddy tracks have been doing the rounds lately because of his new album Last Train To Paris. I haven't listened to the album, and I probably won't, but, like many out there, I feel that Diddy should only be on the track in a producing sense, not a vocal one. Zedd remixes 'Ass On The Floor', and because of the bassline, Diddy's vocals provide a nice contrast for once.

Zedd's production dabbles into the dark arts of dubstep, and you can tell with the heavier beats and the thick basslines on his tracks. Check these two remixes of Skrillex tracks:

I have to say that I haven't jumped on to the bandwagon that's in love with new hip-hop artist B.o.B. If all his tracks sounded like this, I might just jump on though.

Finally, we have to finish things off with the legendary Fatboy Slim. By the way, if you haven't seen the video for the original version of this track, go do that right now!

This Sound Is FAR TOO LOUD!

Far Too Loud is another electro house act based in Brighton. A.k.a. Oliver Cash, this music is electro house at its finest. Far Too Loud started off in breakbeat, and you can still see the elements of that in his current production. Far Too Loud has been gaining a lot of recognition over the past few years for his work, and if you're not acquainted with it, now is your chance. Enjoy, and don't forget to to crank up your speakers FAR TOO LOUD so that you can experience the sound of the dirty basslines that have come to define his work.

Mylo



Scottish electronic music maestro Mylo will forever be associated with 'Drop The Pressure', the track that catapulted him to the world stage. While it was a huge release for him, nothing since has come relatively close, and so in retrospect it must have been a bit of a bittersweet moment for him. Mylo still makes great music though. the reason I randomly decided to blog about Mylo is that I saw this track a couple days ago, which is IMMENSE:   CUT COPY - Take Me Over (Mylo remix) by label Barclay

Here are a few other tracks by Mylo, that aren't particularly new, but are still worth a listen:
Robyn - Don't Fucking Tell Me What To Do (Mylo & Sharooz Mix)
Moby - Lift Me Up (Mylo Remix)
Mylo - Macrobiotic

Adam K - Don't Kick My Bag Bitch

Adam K, one of the freshest producers out of Canada is back at it again with a track titled 'Daun't Kick My Bag Bitch'. (Don't know why it's spelled that way, I'm just assuming it has to do with Canadian phonetics.) He says this about the track: "can't wait till you al hear the story behind this. anyways this is sort of a deadmau5 type tune. well more than sort". The track really does have that Deadmau5 vibe to it, but in my opinion there's something about this that's makes it slightly better.

Afrojack & Bobby Burns - Bridge (Original Mix)

Afrojack's first big release of the year is Bridge, with Bobby Burns. I really like this track, because I was starting to get sick of Afrojack's Clap 'n' Bass style, which he was using on every track he played. Despite saying that, the music he produces is usually quite good. 


The problem with artists that get popular is that all of a sudden people will start layering every track they make with compliments, simply because so-and-so was on the track, even if the track was average at best. Instead of judging each individual track on its merits, people will judge a track based on the fact that Afrojack produced it. 


While I realise that its natural to have certain expectations from artists we like, it's a shame that too often hits are made simply because of the name of the artist, rather than the song itself. In many ways it's the same with a designer brand; even though you might really like a brand, doesn't mean you have to support every piece of apparel they produce, because undoubtedly some of them will be rubbish. 


Anyways, no Clap 'n' Bass on this one, and no vocals either, just 7 minutes of good sound. Enjoy.
