The Joker's Back

Ottawa is the capital of my beloved home 'on native land' - Canada. Hailing from the capital is Jokers Of The Scene. Since being signed to Fools Gold they have not stopped touring, remixing, writing, and touring some more. Mishka NYC is a fashion house in NYC that threw down the gauntlet and requested a mix from Jokers and this is where we begin tonight. O' how far those Canadians have gone. I wish they'd return to Winnipeg to bomb my skull again. You can see by the tour info below that they have blown the fuck up and now have some pretty sweet company whilst rocking parties. Enjoy The Mix!

Next up is a promo of mainstream electronic producers Mephisto Oddyssey getting repainted in Hot Pink and driven to sheer electro heaven in a Delorean. It feels like Boston's Hot Pink Delorean have been blasting us with new remixes every month and heres another that will give you a taste of club vocals getting classed up and expanded bass lines that have that guitar buzz feel.

I have also been loving this tight pro-lectro track from Plump DJ's called Torque of The Devil'. The Subs are here for their remix application and like 'Papillion' you should brace yourself and perhaps put away the good china before you allow this one to scream from your 'Subs'.

Like the group M83 French artist DatA is perfectly capable of making a slow intellectual house remix . I love tracks like this for Sundays and long drives to my family gatherings. M83 is obviously pretty damn fine base material but the underpinning provided by the bass here from the French producer is sheer quality.
DL : M83 - Kim and Jessie (DatA remix)

Maskinen's 'Segertåget' almost sounds like a Swedish Bondo Do Role or something similar and for the most part they are an electro hip hop style house crew that give more credence to the idea that in the near future the Swedes will be above some of the usual European list toppers in terms of electro and house.

Hi whilst we appreciate that you are running a cool site you are currently enabling our music to be downloaded for free, as a small independent label free downloads are crippling our business and making it impossible for us to release our artists music. It would be extremely appreciated if you could remove 'Plump DJs - Torque Of The Devil (Subs Remix)'. The artists, and indeed the label, are losing valuable revenue which is needed to pay for production and marketing and in turn keeping us putting out cool underground music that we believe in. No one is getting rich here! Thanks for your support.
