Hell-o all and here comes your daily dose of bass and with this being the only post for today due to time restraints we better make it a good one and the “We Are Not P(o)P” Pt.03 and Pt.04 double compilation by Jet Set Trash is perfect to do just that. With 27 originals and remixes released on the label last year and a variety of styles that range from Electro House and more commercial Dubstep by artists such as Virtual Riot, Heavygrinder and Oxylice, to nasty trashy bass by the likes of Skitsnygg, Laforcah, Tim Tonik, Gor FLsh and of course some guitar fueled Metalectro favorites by Zardonic, Imagin8, Rubber Spanner and Drop Goblin that come as no surprise being on a Jet Set Trash release, this is a guaranteed energy boost to get you through the rest of the week.

It has been a while since the last subject-related Metalectro Special if not mistaken, and if there´s genre next to our common blog fodder that is usually being featured here, but delivers often pretty cool, dark and badass tracks with an amazing pace, it certainly is Drum And Bass, so i thought to come up with D`N´B Special Pt.II today! Featuring altogether six tracks – three of them remixes, and all tracks being freebies – this post also delivers plenty of fresh blood as four of the artists being featured within (five strictly speaking, the 5th has been remixed though) will also be mentioned for the 1st time on this space hereby! I hope you enjoy this small collection and last post, check the tracks out and have a great evening!!!

Boss Doms – Tango Smith [Freebie]

Imagin8 – Cops And Robbers (The Mechanist Remix) [Freebie]

Dead Battery – Misled [Freebie]

Freqax – The Witch (Abara Remix) [Freebie]

Mr. Bill & Stickybuds – Hard, But Fair [Freebie]

Last post and lets close big by both Metalectro standards and generally speaking good hard electro standards that is. Usual business as i have saved my “remix of the day” for last and this time i have actually made it a double one too and another “vs” post. Today’s contestants, Heavygrinder and Laforcah who both remixed Rubber Spanner‘s “Drop Like Flies” in the same titled EP that was released on Jet Set Trash last month. The result 2 quite different sounding remixes which focused on the very characteristic guitars and punk vocals of the original and were equally great, each for its own reason. Heavygrinder took her remix to a more guitar fueled Electro House direction and really came up with a top remix and one of her best remixes up to date imo, while the Italian duo Laforcah went for a raw thrash bass punk ‘n’ roll style electro remix and took things to their usual hardcore direction. Both great remixes that are definitely worth checking out by all means if you haven’t yet, as is the original too and Rubber Spanner‘s “Drop Like Flies” EP in general. So, press play, enjoy the tracks, let us know which one is your favorite and why and have a great banging evening!

Second post of the day and despite having to change my post right at the last minute due to the tracks of the new release i had planned to post magically disappearing (shame on those responsible), i have a replacement ready that maybe isn’t from a “big” name but certainly is of equal quality as Rubber Spanner‘s 3rd EP “Drop Like Flies” dropped a couple of days ago on Jet Set Trash and made some serious noise as well! Featuring 5 originals that range from Punkstep to melodic Electro House and Metalectro to Techno, the London (UK) based producer really stepped up with this new EP and took things to the next level. The self titled “Drop Like Flies” might as well be the Electro-Step cousin of bands like Agnostic Front or Dropkick Murphys and is a track full of style and attitude but so are the rest of the tracks on the EP. Clever lyrics, guitars, melodies that will stick with you and groove define the 5 originals and as if that’s not enough to make a killer EP, Heavygrinder, Laforcah, Gor FLsh and Soul Machine remixed the tracks and delivered some of their best work up to date too. Nothing else to add, if you aren’t yet convinced there is nothing i can say to change that, so here’s the preview and you better check it out!
