Next of surKIN

With Stereosonic looming on the horizon, the much anticipated line-up will entail one of Southern France's finest. Surkin will once again be returning to our fine shores, the 20-year old prodigy has been making an impact since his early teens, a fine contribution to the French electro scene.

The art school drop hasn't looked back since, starting out with a strong influence from the Ghettotech scene, now significantly influenced by House courtesy of French duo Daft Punk.

Here's one of his classics off his Next of Kin EP, its fast stop-start beat gives it a great vibe.

A bumpy rhythm and fast percussion sums up this little remix.

G'day. As the week ahead looms i feel that i shall share some frais (parlez vous francais?) tunes with all. So here are a select few that may get you through your manic monday all the way to freeball friday...just. Also look out for a spooky post later this week.

The first is a track that has been quite recently hyped up with big names pulling out remixes of it. It is the latest track from Kasper Bjørke and although being a short, sweet, dreamy and smooth track it also has a ripping video that is worth a look.

Young Again - Kasper Bjørke

These boys have been busy beetroots lately - touring, recording and hella remixing. The next installment of great remixes from these crazy italians. The Bloody Beetroots are set to tour oz aswell for stereosonic which draws closer. This is a solid mix of another pumping european duo and i hope you like it.

I Wont Kneel (The Bloody Beetroots Remix) - Groove Armada

Lastly is a rare MJ track and even though the world cannot hear the end of the Jackson tale this must be shared. It is a rare track that is a B-side of thriller - and with some adjustments and a little more bass (due to its cassete quality) it is a really catchy classic Michael song.

Hot Street (U-Tern Edit) - Michael Jackson

au revoir.

The Return

Hello all. Firstly apologies for the recent lack in posts. From now onwards i intend to give at least two weekly fixes of music/reviews/videos/news etc.

Now back to buisness... Since my recent departure many good tunes have been hitting the floors around Australia and the world. And with the recent parklife tour came a string of great DJs/Bands bringing there homegrown or international tunes with them. One of the most notable was the turntable wiz kid himself A-Trak. The story behind this world banging DJ began with bar-mitzvah money that was used to buy his first set of turntables. At the age of 15 he was one of the best scratch mixers in the world as seen here in such videos of his competition sets. Anyway at parklife it was Busy P who dropped A Trak's latest remix. It is in my opinion some of his best stuff so far and will be hitting the club scene in the US and oz quite soon.

Enjoy.
