Time for some fresh blood and one more freebie next and a three-way Italian feature as the Italy based Berserk are remixing “Volevo Un Gatto Nero (You Promised Me)” a collaboration track between The Bloody Beetroots and Gigi Barocco, taken from The Bloody Beetroots new LP “Hide”. Certainly a nice remix focusing more on the hard hitting part of the original and taking it into a more Dubstep, even Complextro direction. This is the first time Berserk are featured here and the first and only track uploaded on the artist Soundcloud page. Personally i will be keeping my eye and ear on Berserk as judging by this remix i wouldn’t be surprised to hear some nice tracks coming by the him/her/them soon even though this remix is a bit too short to draw any safe conclusions as for what to expect. In any case check this one out, grab it and lets hope more nice tracks follow by Berserk soon!

Hell-o all, mid-week Metalectro session startng and as many of you are into Champions League probably we better make sure to make it a challenge and keep you focused on yours and our favorite music more than your TVs. So, having said that here’s today’s opening post and it’s the Champions League equivalent of hard electro as it’s about The Bloody Beetroots new LP “Hide”, out on Ultra Records. A lot could be said about this new release really as it certainly features tracks for every taste, ranging from Disco influenced tracks to Metal and Punk and pretty much anything one could imagine, as well as a number of collaborations with names you will know of either from their Electro Dubstep work or from their rock legend status. Personally even though i quite enjoyed the album, i think it might have been a bit overwhelming and intelligent at times, something that if you look at it as a dance album can be something negative but if you simply put genres aside it certainly shows great musicianship and creativity. Still, The Bloody Beetroots and Sir Bob showed that they haven’t forgotten their love for the hard electro sound and didn’t neglect to include a few bangers too on the LP, some of them made public as singles for some time already and some of them unheard. These were the Metalectro favorites (no big surprise here) and the ones to be blogged here so check the out below but you should definitely still go check out the full LP anyway!

Hell-o all and here we are again ready for some electro action! So, fasten your seatbelts and get ready for take off as i’ll be starting with a double post today and both the vocal and dub version remix Gigi Barocco did on “Super Dope”, originally by Slop Rock (ft. Whiskey Pete). Both remixes are out on Slop Rock‘s new EP “Super Dope”, released a week ago on Radikal Records. The EP also features 4 more remixes by Apocalypto, Heath Renata, Wellsaid & Rubberteeth and Noy Trap, although besides the 2 versions of the Gigi Barocco remix i don’t think the other tracks have something to offer, not according to my taste and stadnards at least. Still though, both Gigi Barocco remixes are once again pretty nice and as usual find their way on this blog, so give them a listen!

Time to call it a day and it’s been another fun and loud day here on Metalectro, so let’s make sure we close it in an equally loud manner and with an equal nice banging “remix of the day”. And if there’s one artist who has been constantly coming up with some pretty big banging official remixes, he certainly has to be Gigi Barocco. This time the Italian producer remixes Steve Aoki, who i really think if it wasn’t for the few great banging remixes done by other artists on some of his tracks he wouldn’t have had any place here on his own right. Anyway, the fact remains that the remixes were done and this particular one on the track “Ooh” is another classic Gigi Barocco style banger. Defintely the only track standing out from the “Ooh” Remixes EP imo, so give it a listen and have a nice evening!

Coming to an end already and since i´m a creature of habit it´s pretty predictable or easy to guess what´s coming last, hence no big surprises here really since i´ll close blogging with my pick for the remix of the day of course! My previous post already put me into a good mood for the melodic sections of banging electro, thus i chose another uplifting and bouncy tune at last to blast you into the weekend and raise the party spirits adequately for a long and hopefully banging night! And so it happens that Gigi Barocco snatches another ROTD, this time remixing the track “Ooh” feat. Rob Roy by Steve Aoki which has been released few days ago on the same-titled remixes EP on Ultra Records alongside remixes by Mustard Pimp, Deorro, Lazerdisk Party Sex and Dzeko & Torres! Enjoy and have a killer weekend!!!
