More LA Hyphylectro November 10, 2009

So I’m kind of blown away by the quality of DJs in LA. If you enjoyed the electro-heavy beats near the end of the Classixx post, beware — you may not need to listen to another DJ duo for the next few days. Acid Girls produces an electronic blend of high-energy bliss. Masterminded by the talents of Gregory Bowler (Twitter) and Jamie McNiel (Twitter, My Space), they seem to have perfected the balance between a variety of electronic genres (to name a few: electro, disco, drum’n'bass, techno) – all laced with a lil’ somethin’ that makes your body to want to move. Discodust says it best:
Acid Girls from Los Angeles are living the (American) blogger’s dream: they went straight from hosting one of the most influential music blogs to dj’ing parties all over the world and are recently receiving more and more praise for their own productions and remixes.
They now have remnants of their blog left online and have surpassed the need for continuous updates as they move toward new levels of production.
Their first single “Numbers Song” makes me think of what it would be like if all I could rave with were 0’s and 1’s. Turbotito has also provided a great remix to this crazy tune as well.

Acid Girls recently released a track with the great UK electro-pop artist Frankmusik on the split single with Classixx (Kitsune x The Cobrasnake), “Wake Up”. The crazy unlabelable electro-driven energy within the song is characteristic of the unique art of Acid Girls.
Acid Girls ft Frankmusik – Wake up
Acid Girls – Oh My Stars
They have done some fantast remixes as well. My fav is a remix to a song we all thought would have been long dead by now, e0H!s’s “Don’t Trust Me”. Mad applause for turning a crap song into a bangin’ beat.

Renaissance Man – Aloha
Two acts that killed this summer were sharkslayer and renaissance man. Both hail from Finland. For the sake of space I’m just going to touch on Renaissance man today. I first heard of renaissance man through a sharkslayer remix of their song spraycan, which is amazing. The original is damn near perfect. The group consists of downtown and jaxxson (who’ve recently dropped some individual remixes too). Their percussive minimal tech house style is straight fire and just keeps gaining momentum. While there’s less going on, the kicks, bass, and synths grow into these amazing grooves. You can’t help but get lost in the moment and move. In addition to sharkslayer they’ve remixed the likes of crystal fighters, momma’s boy, Harvard Bass and noob & brodinski, etc.. The remix of Tiga’s my definition of house music has a great building piano loop, beefy bass, and even some thick synths. Really like their original tunes too, spraycan, aloha, what is guru (already dropped the riva starr remix) all get your feet moving. Check this beatport review of th spraycan ep and this interview with palmsout. All of their stuff is available at Beatport and juno. Alright, lets get this!

Real quick like, a couple taste tracks to finish it off. Harvard bass just released a couple creepers; a remix of drop the lime and a remix of acid girls. Last is a remix of Gucci Vump by downtown (half of renaissance man). Also, if your in the twin cities, tonight Nadastrom, Tittsworth, Ayres, and DJ Haul are at the 7th St entry. It’s going to be memorable. See ya Next Time!Drop The Lime – Set Me Free (Harvard Bass remix)Acid Girls – Lightworks (Harvard Bass Remix)Gucci Vump – The Boogieman (Downtown remix)
Deathface October 22, 2009

As we approach Hallowday, it’s the perfect time to check out Deathface. Deathface (Jonny Love) is one half of the once-Guns ‘N’ Bombs duo that was a part of the “No Culture” electro-collective in California. After Guns ‘N’ Bombs split-up, Jonny Love gravitated towards his own dark, unique mash-up of breakcore/dubstep/drum n’ bass and now resides in Brooklyn, NY. Behind his Hades-ridden hard-bass lies a consistent use of amen rolls, a classic staple of the drum n’ bass genre.
Deathface ft. Entro MC – 10 Percent VIP
Deathface – Theme to Deathface
Jonny Love left the Deathface mark on a variety of songs you wouldn’t think were vulnerable to his sounds. Autokratz’s ‘Stay the Same’ is injected with dark-chaonergy that could hypnotize a Hoard of Zombies into a pool of ravers. Be on the lookout for a Deathface mix for Nicky Digital to rise from the fissure of Haloween’s onset.
Circuit Freq – Supertripper (Deathface remix)
Mexican Institute of Sound – Cumbia (Deathface Remix)
Buraka Som Sistema – “IC19″ (Deathface remix)
Autokratz – Stay the Same (Deathface is Different Remix)
Deathface has some amazing sets, one of them from a set played in North Italy at Trash Dance.
