Here's some music.

NEW JUNTS

I'm not a huge fan of everything that Rusko has been doing lately since he signed to Mad Decent - but this Little Boots re-work is undeniably catchy, fun, and heavy at the same time. Hate all you want but I actually like it when artists evolve and experiment with new sounds. That has been making more sense to me since I've started producing myself these past couple of months... change is a good thing. Come on... give it a listen.

[DL] Little Boots - Remedy (Rusko's Big Trainer's Remix)

The Rye Rye sample (?) that builds up this track is ridiculous. A new one from Foamo with a familiar fidget sound like his older stuff. The bass keeps coming and coming and coming and coming...

[DL] Diplo & Laidback Luke - Hey! (Foamo Remix)

TUNES TUNES TUNES

Air Jordan 1 High Strap 2009 Holiday Collection

Solid tracks I've been thoroughly enjoying lately.

[DL] Rico Tubbs - Gangsters (Jay Stewart Remix)
[DL] Bar 9 - Shaolin Style (Nero Remix)
[DL] OlliE! & Bare Noize - Dancing in the Dark VIP

This tune contains samples from Russian techno producer The Proxy's "Dance in the Dark." Absolutely fucking FILTHY.

[DL] The Proxy - 8000 (Rip from Tiga's Set)

This is a rip from a recent set from Tiga which is pretty much a preview of a new track from The Proxy. It reeks of Russian pride and damnit, Russians go HARD. Without being on his nuts too hard, I think that The Proxy is pushing the limits of dance music right now by using these foreign sounds. Though I think music as a whole right now is moving in a very progressive direction where people all over the world are coming together and meshing their own sounds and influences - going international. Thank fucking god.

TRUMPDISCO - LOTR

Here's yet another Trumpdisco track I got in the inbox a few days ago. I've always been a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings soundtrack and they've sampled it perfectly using the intensity of the epic church choir style vocals to create a short and sweet dance track with a thumpin' bass kick.

[DL] Trumpdisco - LOTR

Also keep posted for the BASSANDKICKS.COM Mixtape Vol. 2 coming sometime this week!
