Mustard Pimp: yep. If you’re not familiar, the duo’s signed to Steve Aoki’s legendary record label Dim Mak along with MSTRKRFT and The Bloody Beetroots. These dudes pretty much define electro, with dope remixes of everything from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air Theme. They’ve just released this new tape featuring some of the year’s biggest electro tracks in a heavy ass mix you can listen to with grandma while you wash her hair. Be forewarned though, grandma may be killed via audio assault. Make sure that will is up to date!
If you’re keen enough, you might notice a few tracks by Deathface on the list. Big ups. He’s currently doin’ it right in LA at parties like Control, run by one of our favorite sources of electronic music news and tracks, gottadancedirty. We’re loving everything we’re hearing lately from our homie, Deathface, and we’ll bet our lunch he’ll be huge in 2011 (again). Is anyone still in doubt over who was the driving talent behind Guns’N'Bombs? Yeah, didn’t think so.
Fresh off an Electric Friends Beach Boddin’ Monday at Torch in Charleston, Deathface (aka Johnny Love) is all over LA this weekend. Last night was the main room at mega club Avalon, in Hollywood. Johnny killed it of course, dropping an hour long set of heavy electro going into dubstep, overlooking a crazy light system and a dancefloor packed full of raughty hipsters.
Tonight’s gonna be all about white t-shirts and old jeans. Johnny is doin a blood party in East LA, something he is known for where beer along with buckets of fake blood are provided.
Pictures tomorrow!
Here’s some Deathface for you if you’re not in LA.
Blessure Grave – Strangers in the House (Deathface Remix)
A wise man told me earlier today that a key which can open many locks is special. A lock that can be opened by many keys is a shitty lock.
That wise man’s name was Johnny Love, opener of many locks, proprietor of wisdom, inevitable Magic: the Gathering beatdowns, and electronic rave music from hell. We’ll be playing a show with Johnny Love tonight at Torch @ 10PM: $3 cover. Johnny just relocated to Charlotte, NC, which will hopefully be great for the electronic music scene there. I’m personally happy to have a fellow guido that makes electronic music in the area.
Speaking of guidos that make electronic music, have you heard of Jack Lomo? Well, if you haven’t: it’s time. Jack Lomo is on Crack House Records (yes!) and is heavy as hell. He just released the EP “I Womma Weed” two weeks ago, and I definitely saw JFK of MSTRKRFT fame bragging about some remix of this track (which is super excellent) on Twitter the other day. Check it out, and get hype:
Here’s a link to the Facebook event: click me! Then click “Attending” and then tell all your friends! It’s not often Charleston gets dope ass, world famous DJs.
Here’s a new track by Deathface: it’s a remix of a classic (well, I definitely think it’s a goddam classic, anyway!!). Enjoy.
