Weekend soundtrack




This time a bit later then you might have expected. Instead of tracks we were hoping to hear; one track that we came across this weekend and went crazy for.

People who've been reading the blogs lately know that South rakkas crew - mad again has been remixed endlessly. Another version to add to that long list is a bootleg done by one of our favourites: Scott Cooper. This one certainly has that little bit extra.

Cribs.


A-trak went to see how the Swedish house maffia watched the European Championship and how they spend their life in ibiza. One day.. one day.

Weekend soundtracks

Photobucket

That long awaited moment is here yet again. It will come as no surprise to our loyal readers, we never miss a friday-weekend-soundtrack post.
First track has been featured in many of our previously posted mixes for good reason. I don't think I have to tell you how mental a crowd will go when you put this one on full blast. BOBOBOBO!
T2 - Heartbroken - The Count remix (previously known as The Count Of Monte Cristal)

These two tracks are not in any way alike as you'll find out after hearing this track. Rough, filthy, hardcore electro. I'd tell you more but I know absolutely nothing about this guy (or girl). Sorry about that.
Math head - Get hype

All in all some totally random tunes with a totally random picture but nothing we wouldn't want to come across this weekend. Have a good one!

Fidget madness!


Foamo is a name you need to keep an eye out for because this guy is going to make it big. Ordinarily I don't really like putting up mixtapes unless I've been asked to do so. This time is different. Some of these mixtapes (just like the previous crookers mixtapes) are special and will most definetly be brightening up your ipod for some time.

Foamo is one of my personal favourite dj's and he put together one sweet mixtape aswell. Straight from our friends over at Welcome to dance club.

Euro2008


We'll confess, we have been a bit inactive but can you really blame us? We've got our country to support in any way possible during these weeks of sportivity. Who would've thought that the Netherlands would beat the 2006 world championship finalists that easily?

Now, what we could do is post some heavy dutch hits to go with the mood but I doubt Wolter Kroes or Het welpenlied would really be fancied by anyone here. So I'm gonna go with minimal on this one:

Don't know what I can tell you about this first track here. Just some funky minimal to enjoy, preferably at a sunny outdoor event.
x1 vs David E. Sugar - Oi Oi London This Is Kreuzberg

Polder is a rising dj-duo from Holland. Went to see them a while back at Paradiso, brilliant set. Definitly recommend you go see these guys live.
Off of their new album 'Poldermodel' which is also definitly worth buying:
Polder - Frisky (Thanks to Apollokiddz)

Like we mention in the disclaimer: If you like their stuff go buy their albums, see their gigs, support the artists.

Weekend Soundtracks

Gonna do a small bit of advertising here:
Chew The Fat is having a competition to win an exclusive Punks Jump Up t-shirt and 4 guestlist places for tomorrow's CTF @ The End (where Foamo, one of our favourite dj's, will be performing) and a runners up prize consisting of 2 pairs of guestlist spaces. Unfortunately 'The End'-venue is in London so not a party we're going to be attending but if you live near there send an email to info@thefatclub.com with 'competition' as the subject. Winners will be picked totally at random.

Back to our weekend soundtracks.
You might have heard this sweet little track in Pierre LP's mix:
Diplo - Fired from work. (thanks Hank)
Screw it, we'll throw in another classic aswell:
Justice - Phantom Pt II (Boys Noize Remix).

does anybody know the name of this track?

Thanks to Oliver and Pinguin: Not quite the same but still very worthwhile. If anyone has the exact remix that's played in the clip please let us know!
Christian Smith & John Selway - Total Departure

It's been a long time


Well, we've been keeping you in the dark for almost an entire week. Something you will not see frequently here on awkward pirates.

To make it up we got 2 sweet tracks for you. Not the newest of tracks but they will rock your ipod nonetheless.

First off is Duke Dumont's Pop dat poosay. Duke dumont has been dubbed 2008's most promising producer talent by none other then Dave 'Switch' Taylor so keep an eye out for his new releases on beatport.
Duke Dumont - pop dat poosay

Second is M.I.A - XR2 (M.I.A Version) . Oldie but flippin good.

Mystery Jets - Two Doors Down (Duke Dumont Remix)


Our inbox has been awfully empty for the past 2 weeks: KEEP SENDING IN PROMOS, MIXES WHATEVER YOU'D LIKE THE WORLD TO HEAR AND KEEP SPREADING THE WORD TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS.
