Going with something slightly different and maybe unexpected by Metalectro standards since it’s no big secret that we aren’t the the biggest techno fans you will ever meet in your life here. Still we aren’t deaf (not yet at least) and can appreciate a nice dark track with its fair share of bass regardless of genres and Christian Cambas‘ remix of Dani Sbert‘s “Doom” certainly falls into that dark techno category we can tolerate and in this case even like. A very nice remix by the Greek techno mastermind and if not mistaken this is the first time either one of these 2 artists is being blogged here as well, so some tasty fresh blood for you too which means hit the play button and give them both a “hot as hell” welcome.
Time for a freebie, the first and probably last for the day as well and the return of a really talented up & coming artist from France who keeps impressing with every new track he comes up with. I am talking about Mr Batou who had a free EP out just days ago which featured 2 originals. I have picked my favorite one out of the two to post, titled “Duality”, a nice full sounding Dubstep track. The nice production, big bass, overall nice flow and groove are some of the characteristics of Mr Batou in general whose tracks keep delivering more and more energy the more they proggress and “Duality” is no exception. Definitely a track worth checking out and grabbing so do that and stay tuned for more like this coming soon by Mr Batou.
Going on with a preview next and what this one might lack in length makes up for in super awesomeness really, as Far Too Loud‘s upcoming “Doomsday Machine” EP sounds like a release that can bring destruction on dancefloors and will definitely make the masses sweat! Out on Never Say Die on the 20th of January “Doomsday Machine” EP will feature 2 originals, the same-titled and hard hitting Electro House “Doomsday Machine” and “Acid 9000”. Both sound great, as one would expect by Far Too Loud and big ups to the British producer for staying on the hard side of the 128bpm once again rather than going for chart topping sounds. So, check out this short but tasty teaser and stay tuned for the release, as we will be too!
Time to wrap things up and here comes today’s pick for the “remix of the day” which makes up for a nice contradiction as well since it brings together one of our least favorite artists, Steve Aoki and a name we love, Dirtyphonics. And why we love Dirtyphonics you might be wondering, in which case this remix serves as a great example, since the Frenchmen have taken a track that has nothing we could have possibly liked by Metalectro standards and transformed it into a powerful, bouncy remix. And if this trasformation and overall huge improvement in addition to the great production you can expect by Dirtyphonics isn’t enough to grant this the “remix of the day” title, then i don’t know what is. Check it out and have a great evening!
More fresh blood coming with the mystery surrounded and impressive “career” launch that has been the beginning for Lazer Lazer Lazer. No info, pics or details about Lazer Lazer Lazer are known, the attention from bigger blogs and of course production standards of the few remixes they have published though, makes one wonder if Lazer Lazer Lazer is just a new side project by a well known artist. Something that might as well be nothing more than a publicity trick trying to create the impression of a well known artist behind Lazer Lazer Lazer, a promotional trick we see more and more lately since big blogs love playing the guessing game. The truth is we can’t be sure and we don’t really care. What matters is that regardless any publicity tricks Lazer Lazer Lazer might chose, the quality needed to support them is there, as this remix of Knife Party’s “Sleaze” proves. It’s not easy to remix Knife Party and keep the standard at the same level, Lazer Lazer Lazer succeeded in doing that though imo. And having said that i think nothing else need to be added here so check this remix out and look out for more by the LA based Lazer Lazer Lazer. We certainly will be keeping our Metalectric eye on them.
