Erol Alkan & Boys Noize.

Call on me,

I know, I know... whatsup with these long ass hiatuses? Well let me say spring break x took a little too much out of me and Lake Havasu, AZ, is the shiznit. But back to the blog, boy genius Erol Alkan and German electro-master Boys Noize has teamed up before but they just recently put out the Lemonade EP, and oh boy there are some fiya ass tracks. Take a listen to the first two and tell me what you think.

I. Am Not. Techno. (But I really am)

To protect AND entertain (Busy P),

Middle of the week, so I know you need your electronic fix to keep trudging on till the weekend. Boys Noize is one of the HUGEST DJs in the electronic genre right now and I've had the pleasure seeing him twice at Hard Haunted Mansion in Los Angeles, CA and Lollapalooza in Chicago, IL. The first time I heard this song I knew it was going to massive, tell me what y'all think.

Boys Noize - Nott

Here's a bonus track from the mau5, he's personally one of my favorite DJs and this song Strobe is probably one of the greatest songs I have ever heard and if you haven't heard it that's a fuckin' shame, so download and experience this electronic greatness.

Who loves Random Remixes? Everyone. Duh.

Let your love grow tall (Passion Pit),

Enough is enough, thus I've decided to curtail the dubstep posts (sorry dubsteppers, it's only for a while) and show some awesome remixes to some random songs. We got a remix from 2009's breakthrough band and on top of everyone's album of the year list (Merriweather Post Pavillion), ANIMAL COLLECTIVE. Awesome band, if you didn't catch their album I recommend definitely picking it up and giving it a listen.

Animal Collective - Daily Routine (Phaseone Remix)

Another remix that I decided to post is a golden oldie with a hard new twist. Robin S.'s Show Me Love was an absolute ginormous hit and Afrojack's remix makes a great song that much better with a much needed electro-hard house feel.

John. Roman. This kid from T-Dot (Toronto) has made pulsing electro-hard house for the past year or so and every song and remix he has put out has such a edge to them that you can tell it's a John Roman song. Here's a remix he did of Boys Noize's Kontact Me.

Boys Noize - Kontact Me (John Roman Remix)

Kid Cudi's "Man On The Moon: The End Of The Day" was one of the biggest albums of 2009, and Steve Aoki's remix of Pursuit of Happiness has got to be one of the most massive synth heavy party tunes that I have ever heard. Play this song at full volume and tell me you and your homies won't be dancing.

Royksopp is a Norwegian electronic duo that burst onto the scene during 2009 as well with their acclaimed drop "Junior". This remix is paralyzing with its driving bass, and Boys Noize is one of the dirtiest DJs out there right now and this remix shows why...

Royksopp - Happy Up Here (Boys Noize Remix)

And last but not least, yet another break out band of 2009 was The XX and this remix of their song Shelter by little known Death to the Throne is an absolute dance hit. Sounds nothing like the original and but still captures the essence of the original while putting an electronic twist on it.
