Nice and quick again. 2 tracks. Loud electro squeals and and bouncy fidget style. But ... heavy!

First up - MSTRKRFT return the remix favour - remember this?
Laidback Luke - Till Tonight (MSTRKRFT Remix) - Link removed at request

Second, soundcloud superproducer samples Vinnie Jones for cheeky effect

Subliminal - The Juggernaught

Don't sleep

On Friday Night Karakashian and myself hit Noise @ Babalou in Brixton where Stupid Fresh was headlining. Check out his soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/stupidfresh

After that shameless self-promotion, here's Herve's essential re-work of the ubiquitous Fake Blood anthem. Forget the remixes:

Fake Blood - Mars (Herve Re-Fix) (320)

Check the artists here:

The only shit thing about it is that it is from 9pm till 2am, which is not what I'm used to when going out in London, but hey at least I get to have some nice West country cider ;). Check out Jack Beats' essential mix which was made a couple of weeks ago, pretty good stuff!

Easy!

Some new stuff to keep your iTunes library funky.

The USA. Loves hip hop. And as MSTRKRFT know, hip hop tunes equal massive electro bangers. Boston guys The Filth have bootlegged Ludacris for a peak time smash.

Ludacris - How Low (The Filth Remix)

Long time love affair (for me, anyway) Felix Cartal released his debut album this week, provocatively named 'Popular Music'. Firstly, go buy it. Second, here's a rework of The Grinch by Botvox. Techy, grimey, even a little bit progressive! Botvox keep Cartal's signature synth grinds though. Recommended.

Felix Cartal - The Grinch (Botvox Remix)

Moving towards a fidget-electro crossover sound, Dirty Disco Youth have come up with this rudeness - Brains...Off. Some nice piano breaks in it to keep it interesting. Shame it's only at 128..... it's worth it.

Dirty Disco Youth - Brains ... Off

Last up I wanna hype this track. DMC wizard Craze (yeah, THE Craze) is clearly a talented man. Him and protege Klever, apart from smashing up scratch battles and getting paid to play on Serato, both make some serious club tunes. This one takes us on a wobble fest. Loads of different drum breaks going on. Some dub flavours, some hip-hop style and a whole lot of fidgety bass. Real inventive, support this tune. I'll drop a Klever anthem on you next time.

Craze - Drop to the Flo

Keep it loud!

So here we see a return of tune of the week.

This week I've got 4 tunes cos I know it's a bit late.

Party people! The mother of diary dates is here, new years eve. Sure there's a ton of stuff happening in London; Ministry of Sound at the O2, Innovation at Fire, Get Loaded in the Dark at Brixton Academy to name a few. However, true mess head recommends this banger - two of London's trendiest promoters in force for a colossal shoreditch raveup. Funktion 1 sound throughout the Basement Club, and with 9 hours of solid noise, it's set to be huge.

Brodinski has had a massive year. Being asked to mix Bugged Out's latest Suck My Deck compilation, collabs with fellow Frenchman Noob, and the huge Eurostar with Mumdance have all helped establish him in the major league.

DJ Mehdi - Pocket Piano (Brodinski Remix) (320) - Brings the sublime piano loop to a driving techno powerhouse
Noob & Brodinski - Peanuts Club (Jake Simon Remix) (320) - Fidget squeaks and electro stabs. Huge.

Boy 8-Bit is firing now as well. Riding with the Mad Decent crew and reworking the likes of La Roux and Florence and the Machine have made him a name known. His Baltic Pine EP (buy it!) has smashed the beatport charts, and the track itself is sure to be dropped. This guy's style is undefinable!

Jack Beats ft. MC Dynamite - What (Boy 8-Bit Remix) (320) This is a true mess head favourite. That bouncing b-line....
Boy 8-Bit - A City Under Seige (320) - Underrated and epic.

Hannah Holland (apparently I was later told....) gave a massive set at Exit and is sure to repeat. Though not a prolific producer, she's been playing for over 8 years and regularly spins 5 hour sets.

V.V. Brown - Crying Blood (Hannah Holland Remix) (128) - Much blogged. When the bass gets its groove on you'll see why...

Mumdance is HUGE first off. Remixing Maximo Park in his emerging 'kerplunk' genre, his sound is wild. Fusing carnival sounds with bouncing drums and big bad bass, and running around dubstep, house and fidget without being tied down, expect anything. The Mad Decent Diplo-esque sound shines through tho.

The Whip - Divebomb (Mumdance Remix) (320) - takes the original glitches and whirrs to a kudoro festival. With whistles. And steel drums.

True Mess Head will see you at the front.

This promo snippet has JUST been put on YouTube - as I write it has 6 plays!

Check it - it's a funky disco slice of fidget bassline. If that makes any sense.



A whole lotta posts coming soon...

Got 2 fidget bangers for you this week. The first one is the awesome new release from TJR called Booty Move, no doubt one of the most anticipated releases of the year. This one is the Potato Heads remix of it, I prefer it to be honest!

I was gonna say the best things come in trios but I realised there are two guys in Mustard Pimp. Pshhhh, there are still some sweet things that are 4s....?

4x4 music (aka bassline for my sheffield peeps)
4 people for a double date.
...Foursome?

screw it, the point is both of these artists are big in the game. True Mess Head favourites Blatta and Inesha are blowing up Italy and Mustard Pimp are killing everything they touch. I virtually have their fresh prince remix on repeat. So when two tribes go to war...

Mustard Pimp and Blatta & Inesha - Pigeon Flu (320)

enjoy peeps, this is fresh out.

YO!

fresh off the decks, here's the first mix from true mess head. true to style, theres some fidget, some electro, some dubstep and a whole lotta BASS.

enjoy - you can download throu soundcloud. comments appreciated!
True Mess Head Mix 1 by Trouble and Squeak

So I found this tune over the weekend doing my usual browsing of blogs, youtube etc. Absolute dirtbag tune!

It is Gigi Barocco - Rowdy Jack (Bryan Cox Remix) (320)

Italy has got some shithot artists at the moment, Crookers, Bloody Beetroots, Gigi himself, Blatta & Inesha to name a few! Will be doing a post with some of their best tracks soon!



Surprisingly I haven't gone and got the new modern warfare...yet lol.

Second tune of the week is Camo - Lost Heaven (209)


Will more than likely find some more by the end of the week that are worth posting about.


Watch this space!

So I've decided to put up the best tune I've heard this week and will do this weekly as my 'song of the moment' tends to change pretty quickly depending on how much I go searching for music but I think this one will be one of those songs where you think...I haven't heard that in a while, whack it on and go, 'oh yeaaah what a beat'

It's the Mightyfools remix of creepy by Boltan (320)

Let us know what you think of it.

What a weekend. Friday for some RUDE drum and bass courtesy of original sin, sub focus and serial killaz. Crissy Criss whacked the dubstep too. Heard him drop Seeerious by Noah D at the bar, nice. Buuuut we've already done our homework for that.

Saturday was part 2 at the Phoenix, Jam the Channel style. Not as rammed as friday, but lush decorations and video screens hanging from the ceiling made it different in a wicked way. And the djs were on FORM!

Lee Mortimer. The only bad thing I can think to say about him is he didn't get a chance to play his Indo remix and thats me clutching at straws to complain. He's a legend. MASSIVE set, wish I could remember more of the tracklist. Top guy aswell, was loving the mask.

Quality drop from him: Foamo - Rockerman (Lee Mortimer Remix)

Calvertron. I have no idea where this guy gets his tracks from but they were outrageous. All top quality electroeyfidgety goodness.

Quality drop from him: Calvertron - Doo Doo. No mp3 for that cause everyone has it!
Instead this under-rated gem: Calvertron & Will Bailey - Hookin.

Shout to the promoters.

so last night was the first of egg's label showcases, and the guys in question were Wearhouse Music. Lee Mortimer's jackin house imprint is putting out some bombs at the moment and they showed it last night. Mortimer was backed up by Chew The Fat! resident Foamo and fidget star Hijack, all playing rinsing sets.

Definite highlight of the night was bournemouth boy Hijack. He managed to pack out the floor in about 10 minutes of getting his hands on the decks and went on to rip through his huge re-edit catalogue and remixes.

Hijack - Party People (Bootleg) (320)

Foamo and Mortimer kept the vibe going, each smashing out banger-filled sets. Add to that Funktion 1 sound, cheap red stripe and a LOT of smoke machines, Egg's label nights are gonna be huge by the looksa things

BIG DROPS
Foamo and Lee Mortimer - It's Going Down (320)
La Roux - Bulletproof (Foamo's Dubstep Remix) (192)
