Weekend is coming so here’s a playlist to get the party started. And being Friday the 13th too I thought i’d keep it bloody and heavy. We hope you enjoy the selection (incl. tracks by Lektrique, Kroyclub, XKore, Laforcah, Le Castle Vania, Owl Vision, Father, 501, The Glitch Mob, I Think I Broke Something , Christine and Neosignal). You can also check the playlist on Soundcloud (here) although some of the tracks are only available as previews so Spotify is recommended for the full versions.

As for those of you following the blog from the early days you might remember the regular monthly mixtape series we used to have, which will be probably be replaced by regular playlists. As for the reason why the mixtapes won’t be coming back but will be replaced by these playlists, first we feel it’s more directly beneficial for the artists themselves, second obviously it’s less time consuming to only have to make the right track selection instead of having to do a mixtape with it and finally with the stricter copyright infrigement policies that are in place on Soundcloud nowadays it seems more appropriate.

A name that hasn’t been mentioned for quite a while here but has always been a favorite among hard Electro fans is that of USA artist Le Castle Vania. And if reading LCV’s name makes you feel nostalgic of the days his name would be featured frequently on Electronic music blogs with new bangers, we’ve got some good news for you as only hours ago a couple of new Le Castle Vania tracks went public on the artist’s Soundcloud. And what’s even better than 2 new LCV originals, that they’re available for free of course! Tight and hard edged Electro as usual, “I Want You” and “What We Do” might not be Le Castle Vania‘s hardest tracks but they certainly won’t disappoint any of his fans either. We from our side are certainly glad to hear some new music by the Atlanta producer anyway and and hope more will follow soon! Continue reading »

Staying on the new release path for now and this one is actually pretty new and fresh, both in terms of release date and sound that is! It’s been a while since Le Castle Vania has been featured here actually but it seems him and us both were getting ready for some big things and big come backs! And in our case we might still be a bitr secretive regarding our plans but Le Castle Vania went all banging and public with his new EP “Prophication” which was out on Mau5trap and damn was it worth the wait!? 4 originals, sounding tight and bringing back some of the older Le Castle Vania banging sound. The opener “Prophication” sets you up perfectly for what’s about to follow with the banger “Raise The Dead” feat Cory Brandan on vocals and bringing back memories of early Le Castle Vania and his remix of “Zero Machine”. “Disintegration” is a pure vocal driven hard and kick ass electro track while the last track “Incarnation” concludes what’s a pure hard electro EP completely clean of dubstep and drum & bass influences. A release i personally really enjoyed even if it might sound a bit too polished at points. I hope you will too!
