High Density

October 21st, 2007 · 1 Comment

headphones I’m off on vacation for a week - and I always like to take a new mix to listen to during my travels, so I put this together…and left for you to download and enjoy! These are some of my personal favourites from the dancefloor at the moment - taking in some of the more progressive and bass heavy recesses of the record box.

Enjoy this mix - and let me know what you think in the comments below!

[download#11] (right click and ’save as’ will do the trick!)

Full Tracklist (and mini reviews) after the jump…

  • Deadmau5 - Faxing Berlin : smooth, proggy track that eases us into the mix with a thudding bassline
  • Noir - Super Skunk (Deadmau5 Mix) : Wicked tune, reminds me a lot of some of early hard house tunes, slowed down for gentler times (and older DJ’s!) but still with bags of bounce and energy.
  • Mark Ronson - Stop Me (Dirty South Mix) : New York style Radiohead cover gets a bottom heavy workout from Dirty South with great vocals from Daniel Merriweather
  • Dirty South - Let it go : wicked guitars, coupled with a cool vocal drive this bass heavy, funked up tune
  • Josh Wink - Higher State of Consciousness (Marco V Mix) : All time classic (and BigMan favourite) is given a tuff sounding remix by dutch trance master Marco V
  • Dave Spoon feat Lisa Maffia - Bad Girl at Night (Beat Vandals Mix) : So Solid girl gets Super solid breaks mix from the Beat Vandals
  • Peter Bjorn & John - Young Folks (Scumfrog Remix) : One of the biggest tracks of the year  (and 2006!) gets a very cool remix with a very phat bassline  from Scumfrog - will you ever get ‘that whistle’ out of your head?
  • James Zabiela & Nic Fanciulli - No Pressure (Deadmau5 Remix) : Toronto based Deadmau5 once again does the business on this progressively trancey remix.
  • Gus Gus - Need in Me (Luke Walker : 2005 release gets a 303 heavy remix from Luke Walker, complete with 80’s style synthdrums and a little polish from the breakbeat cloth.
  • Underworld - Born Slippy (WMC 2007 Remix) : The second all time classic of the mix gets a rerub for 2007, I heard this a few times from the Miami Music Conference and always wanted to include it in a mix…love the crowd noise and the tempting runs of the classic keyboard riff.
