DJ-Set | Weekend Mixes 10/25/12
Posted by Middy on October 25, 2012
It is Thursday, so it is essentially the weekend. Unless you are this guy, you are going to need mixes to get the weekend started. We start things off with our friends at The Drop with this week’s episode that features an interview with Robbie Rivera and a funky mix from Finnish sensation Lenno, who will be at Santos Party House next weekend, Saturday, November 3rd. Next up we have Tristan Garner’s guest mix on Arty’s relatively new show “2gether We Are”. It features a bunch of the tracks from his recently released “Digital Rocker EP” and showcases his superb bootlegging ability. We then follow with Matisse & Sadko’s October mix that features unreleased tracks from Fedde le Grand, themselves, Hard Rock Sofa and Swanky Tunes, Steve Angello and more. Lastly we give you a very recently posted Halloween mix from Zeds Dead that is a bit heavier than the previous three to provide a well rounded group of mixes. Tracklists after the jump.

TheFatRat brings the heat with in his guest mix, seamlessly transitioning through nu-disco to more glitchy electro and heavier electro tracks, taking you on a funky, high energy journey. No interview this week just all music and tracklist after the jump.

As expected, the episode pays homage to Zedd’s debut album “Clarity” as they make their swing up the east coast, stopping in Miami tonight, NYC tomorrow (tickets HERE) and Free Fest Saturday before hitting the west coast. Also included is a top 10 September mix capping off a great month of releases. Tracklists after the jump.
DJ-Set, Dubstep, Electro-House | The Drop 034 (Jacob Plant Guest Mix)
Posted by Middy on September 28, 2012
The Drop is back with its 34th episode, fresh off of passing 100,000 downloads with a bass heavy selection of tracks with UK producer Jacob Plant on the guest mix. They interview trio Krewella who tell a great story involving Global Dance and Steve Angello. The mix this week features two tracks from Deadmau5’s latest album, the uplifting “Something To Believe In“, Seven Lion’s incredible remix of “The Great Divide” and Nero’s latest free track “Won’t You (Be There)“. Jacob Plant takes over the decks for the last half hour of the show with a ridiculous guest mix, putting together 24 songs in 30 minutes, mixing and mashing songs together, transitioning seamlessly between songs and genres. It is a rare guest mix to hear nowadays when guys have so many guest mix requests and just mail in a half hour mix of 7 or 8 popular songs. You can tell Jacob Plant really put effort into this and by starting with the Torro Torro remix of “Go Deep” he is not taking this lightly. Tracklist after the jump.
DJ-Set, House, Trance | The Drop 033 (Gabriel & Dresden Guest Mix)
Posted by Middy on September 26, 2012
The Drop is a weekly radio show that plays some of the biggest tracks of the week such as Otto Knows remix of “Lies“, the trance drop, “Five Finger Death Punch” and “Must Be The Love“, while showcasing an up and coming talent on guest mix duties like Dannic, Leon Bolier, Ken Loi, Dyro & Mattisee & Sadko. The show also interviews an artist or figure in the industry. In this episode, Rukes, the man who is the standard of dance music photography, is interviewed by the guys. The interviews are well done and informative and do not get in the way of the music. On this episode, Gabriel & Dresden take over with 30 minutes of their set at Exchange, LA two weeks ago, mixing in a few of their signiature mashups including their much requested Pryda vs. Human League – Don’t You Want Me Allein bootleg. Check them out on Facebook, Twitter & Soundcloud and look out for episode 34 tomorrow. Tracklist after the jump.
