Fred Falke is one of the great unsung heroes of electronic music. Yes, he has a considerable following and has been in the game for a long time, but for whatever reason I feel like he’s never fully given the spotlight. But perhaps that’s how he likes it. His understated yet musically lush remixes are always in keeping with the best of the French house tradition — melodic, disco-tinged, and eminently danceable. They’re also often so excellent that they quietly eclipse the original tracks (Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own” is a fantastic song, but Fred Falke’s remix has become the platonic ideal for me).
Falke’s latest remix, of the Zedd-produced “I Don’t Like You,” is a perfect example of his ability to fix something that wasn’t technically broken to begin with. He isolates Eva Simons’s powerful vocals and weaves in a new melody with a much more interesting chord progression, which beautifully showcases that almost ecstatic harmony in the chorus. No adrenaline-baiting builds, no airhorn samples or superfluous synthwork; this is just good old fashioned electronic music at its very best. I’m even feeling this over Nicky Romero’s remix, which has been getting heavy airplay on BBC Radio One lately and is sure to see more in the coming weeks. Preview Fred Falke’s remix in full below and look for it to drop on Interscope on May 22.
Electronic | Clinton Sparks Performs w/ DJ Tiesto @ Mohegan Son
Posted by A on March 30, 2012
Boston’s own, Clinton Sparks is a man that embodies all things awesome. From hosting television shows on E! to being nominated for his work on Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” it seems 2012 has been his year. Just a few weeks ago, Clinton released “My Awesome Mixtape 2” a torrid dance mix that took the electronic dance world by storm. Once solely a hip-hop producer, Clinton has begun to focus on electronic music as of late, diligently carving out a lane all his own.
Clinton shows no signs of stopping, as he’s already gearing up for “My Awesome Mixtape 3” slated to drop in May. Next week, you can expect the full version of “My Own Worst Enemy” to drop as well as a possible “Climax” remix in the near future. Be on the look out for his upcoming single “Watch You” featuring Pitbull and Disco Fries coming soon. 2012 may be just be the year of Clinton Sparks. Get Familiar!

Russians just know where it’s at when it comes to electronic music. The Saxophone from Syntheticsax makes this track the amazing art it is. Just one of those house tracks you throw on and just let it take you away.

Drum & Bass | Netsky – Iron Heart VIP
Posted by Sev on January 21, 2012
Netsky’s VIP remixes have to be my favorite remixes by any artist in electronic music currently. Although I am a little late on finding this track, better late then never. It has been floating under the radar for some reason and it shouldn’t be, because Netsky has created nothing short of another drum & bass VIP masterpiece. Through the first minute and thirty seconds you will notice slight changes to the track, but do not be fooled because Netsky brings the filth and bass on the drop. Be warned though, if you are a fan of the original you might not favor this track as much because it is a little heavier. The story behind this track is that it was created for the video game Forza Motorsport 4, which mislead some to think this was a Forza Motorsport remix, but it is not.

For those that didn’t like the abrupt beginning to the VIP heres an edit with the intro from the original.

Dubstep | Luxe – Beast Mode feat. Neillmatic
Posted by GMONEY on January 2, 2012
Luxe is composed of two Berklee College of Music students, Eric Kwong and Michael Moss, whose mission is to create electronic music that represents tradition, while integrating cutting-edge ear candy. When this duo isn’t in the studio, they can be found spinning at one of the most successful clubs in Boston. Beast is their first dubstep release to date, and they make quite the entrance…this track hits hard, the second you press play.

Dubstep | Sev & Mach’s R Rated #4
Posted by Sev on November 23, 2011
December cannot come soon enough. After watching this video, and listening to Skrillex’s BBC radio one mix on Zane Lowe’s show, anything could be on that EP releasing next month. The anticipation is killing us, but this weeks bombardment of electronic music releases should be able to hold us over for a week or two. As usual we have this weeks filthiest dubstep releases ready for you guys to rage to while you try to eat as much as possible. Hopefully the bass will help you digest your food a little better.
Im sure this song doesn’t need any introduction. Just hit play and let Borgore work his magic.

Rednek is a name all dubstepers should take note of. This track was given away for free, and thank god Mach found this gem. Be careful the drop comes out of nowhere and is just straight raunchy.

Tantrum tore this remix apart. Definitely one of my new favorites.

Sick remix of Paper Diamonds track by Spenny adding a little more bass that goes great with the vocals.

Alvin Risk should be another name dubstep fans take note of. At one point I thought I was in the middle of a Hoedown during this song, then there was the drop and all I remember is waking up at the end of the song.

This weeks throwback is probably the dirtiest remix of this song. I have never heard this much bass in one song so fast. Skream and Benga dropped this song live and it looked like the whole crowd seizured after the second drop.
