Here is a compilation of tracks that I’ve been listening to alot and playing in my sets over the last month or so. Enjoy!
This first track is just some pure distorted electro. Not a lot of this being made anymore, I definitely miss it.
I Need – The Loops of Fury

After playing the “Bassmentality” party in Toronto a few times over the summer, this track definitely has a special place in my heart.

I had been waiting for this track to come out for a long time after hearing Zeds Dead play it a few times. It’s got such a cool style. Great acoustic sounding drums, a nice bouncy tribal bass, and a really interesting arrangement. Check out the b-side “Undah Yuh Skirt”, really nice.

I only got onto VNNR about a month ago, but they’ve been getting some serious plays in both my sets and my itunes (when I’m feeling intense).

Conway is a friend of mine who I met through Bassmentality when I saw him throw down a killer set right after me. I’ve been really impressed with all of his productions as well. This one is probably my favorite. Check out his ‘Metal Kids’ album on i-tunes.

This track has been a staple in my sets for the last few months. I love the sample (which I assume is Biggy) and it’s got that face melting drive that makes your head spin.

Great ravey track with a really cool rock drum kit backing up a synthesized pitch bend festival.

Alex Metric is the man.

Great disco house track that has been playing in my house on repeat. I know, it sounds like that other song… and that other song…
You And Me (Extended Mix) – Uniting Nations

Wolfgang Gartner 2.0 but it’s still really good.

I’m pretty picky with my drum & bass. This track has a more relaxed and feel good vibe than a lot of dnb. It’s pretty epic though.
Different (Original Mix) – MRSA

Shout out to N.Y. from The New Halifax for putting me onto this one.

This is definitely my favorite track off of the new Wolfgang album. Looooooove the main melody in the drop. Kind of wish it didn’t get so glitchy in the middle, but the other part more than makes up for it.

I thought this one was a pretty cool idea. Sort of a blend between dutch house/techno and disco.
The Funky One – Bart B More and Harvard Bass

Porter Robinson is obviously outrageously talented, without even considering his age. This remix by Knife Party is quite the face melter, and has some interesting tempo changes.

Tommy Trash has been pumping out the big room bangers for a while now, and this one definitely hits the spot when that signature acid synth of his comes in.
