Electro-House, Moombahton | Alvin Risk — Infinity EP

Posted by on April 25, 2012

This new Alvin Risk EP contained a different side of Alvin we haven’t ever seen. I was sort of disappointed with this EP, not because he chose to do something different, but just because of the fact that some of the songs didn’t contain that appleaing Alvin Risk signature style that that fans have grown to love. I will admit though, I was a little disheartened when the we first got the EP track listing that his collaborations with Skrillex weren’t included. I should have seen if coming though being it does have Skrillex’s name on the track and all. With that being said, two out of the four tracks on here are pretty dope tracks. Survival has some of the most intricate combinations of laser synth sounds, alongside Sirah’s vocals. Same thing with Psychotic; bringing some crazy synth sounds along with an up-beat tempo. Infinity and Pray lacked the Alvin Risk esque style, which is why I wasn’t a fan of the tracks, nevertheless give each track a chance. You can grab the EP on Beatport HERE.

Electro-House, Moombahton | Alvin Risk – Infinity (Preview) & Dirty Dancer Remix

Posted by on April 12, 2012

Protege to Skrillex, Alvin Risk is a force to reckon with. One of my favorite things about him is that he doesn’t just stick to one genre of music, he dabbles in Moombahton, Dubstep, and Electro-House. His title track ‘Infinity’ is a dark, but awesome dance tune. The build up is intense and shocks you once that dance forever drop goes down. I am sure we will get to see a few sides of him on his upcoming EP, ‘Infinity,’ which drops April 24th on Dim Mak Records.

Now it is time to delete all of those awful rips of Alvin Risk’s ‘Dirty Dancer’ remix that all of you have. He seemed to have just enabled the downloads for the tracks 320kbps on his soundcloud (that means it’s studio quality). This track is awesome, Moombahton at its finest and then some. Enjoy.

Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Electro, Moombahton | OWSLA Presents FREE Treats Vol. 2

Posted by on March 13, 2012

The big day has finally arrived and OWSLA’s Free Treats Vol.2 is now out. I’m going to go ahead and say personally I was dissapointed at first, while others felt the compilation was up to par. I’m not saying every track on this compilation isn’t as appealing as I thought it was going to be, but for the most part I was let down for the number of tracks that are on this release. Free music is free music though and I won’t complain about that and there are tracks on here that deserve recognition. My overall favorite on the release is without a doubt Flinch & Jamtech Foundation – Bad Boy. I have said it before and I will say it again, reggae with dubstep is a killer combination. The Moombahton representers, Munchi and Sazon Booya, definitely nailed their tracks bringing the lasers and the heavy steel drums. When I saw Koan Sound and Alvin Risk’s names on the track list I had a feeling they would not disappoint. Koan Sound definitely didn’t, but I was a little disheartened by Alvin Risk’s melodic approach on his track. After listening to it a few times though, I got over it and could appreciate the uniqueness incorporated into constructing the track and not just releasing his usual expected laser synth filled Moombah tracks, altohugh that would have been nice. The last honorable mentions goes to Plastician’s Deep Dubstep track and Bare Noize & Zardonic’s Drum and Bass track. The wait still continues for something new from Skrillex. The compilation is free so follow the Beatport link below and grab your free download.

Dubstep, Electro-House | Kaskade Eyes Remixes

Posted by on November 30, 2011

The remixes to Kaskade’s Eyes are finally out. All the attention seems to be going to Alvin Risk’s remix and it is evident why. The drop sounds like a combination of laser synths going off with a combined ruffneck bass synth. R3hab and Swanky Tunes remixes aren’t too bad either,  but they were too generic sounding. R3hab starts the track off nice by setting up the vocals with a dope beat, then goes into his signature electro sounding drop. The Swanky Tunes remix didn’t really bring much to the table.

Albums, Dubstep, Electro | Kill The Noise – “Kill Kill Kill” EP

Posted by on November 22, 2011

Rumor’s were going around from artists that got this EP early, that it was going to be the best EDM EP of the year. That statement could not have prepared anyone for this beast. Forget Skrillex, this is definitely the top release OWLSA has had. Kill The Noise didn’t just rock out the dubstep on this one, the guy gives electro a whole new light with his tracks Deal With It and She Likes To Party. The EP also features some amazing remixes from Dillon Francis, Brown & Gammon, Alvin Risk, and KOAN Sound. I can’t even begin to start telling you my top tracks, this whole EP is freakin’ insane. Give it a listen yourself, its a revelation waiting to happen.

Electro, House | Diplo, DallasK, Kids At The Bar, Alvin Risk, Cyberpunkers | ELECTRO

Posted by on January 24, 2011

Electronic producer and recent New Orleans transplant, Swiss Chriss, teamed up with rapper G-Easy for the track, “Nose Goes.” DallasK brings added filth to the song, transforming it into an absolute banger.

Diplo is a bit late with his remix of Sleigh Bells’, “Tell Em.” He seems passionate about the duo, though. In a statement made to fans, Diplo said, “…Their [Sleigh Bells] last album was one of the sickest of ’10…It’s soo sick, it gave me a stomach ache.” He then explained why the remix was delayed: “I started this mix for them like a year ago but it took Derek about 6 months to send stems so it was kinda in remix limbo but I really wanted to get it out to u guys cause I think the bass and the drums sounds nice and you can play it at your next party.”

Cerebral Vortex has teamed up with a slew of sick electro artists who have each manipulated his single, “Fly By Night.”
