Marc Romboy - Sonora (Hugo Remix)
The word “Sonora” has been recurrent in my life in the past couple of weeks, in location names and now in the title of this outstanding track. Because of the brief, head turning intro, the funky vocal loop, the bongos and the fact that it...
Raudive - Here (Len’s Podium Remix)
I have recently gotten my hands on a copy of the Luke Slater Fabric (#32) and though it’s really random and sounds like he may have been totally dusted when he was mixing, it has a great feel and some standout tracks. “Here” is one ...
Mile Caro & Franck Garcia - Dead Souls (Radio Slave Long Distance Kiss Mix)
Matthew Dear for Get Physical’s Body Language series is pretty on point; the 2LP is really good because it has full length versions of a bunch of tracks on the mix, which is available on CD. While the uber-minimal vibe might work best for ambie...
SOME LAST MINUTE NYE AMMUNITION
First and foremost, you’re welcome. Here’s a lovely range of songs that will excite, delight, frighten, brighten, and elevate any willing audience that you might find yourself entertaining this evening. I’m not only talking to DJs e...
Deepspace5 - Gloria
Aside from being Christians, Deepspace5 has always been one of my favorite hip-hop acts. Lead by the insanely talented ManCHILD (1/2 of Mars ILL), DS5 is the 10-headed offspring of the underground Christian hip-hop movement that (get this)… Doe...
Stephan Bodzin - Caligula
HOLY FUCK it has been a great week for music. The torrent gods have decided to reward us for our dutiful worship and have bestowed upon us some serious gems, the least of which is an absolutely brilliant compilation that Gui Barrato did for Systemati...
Chuckie - Let The Bass Kick (Joachim Garraud Remix)
Joachim Garraud of France, remixer and producer of such notable acts as Bowie, Guetta, Kylie, Moby, Deep Dish and Paul Johnson, has been FUCKING MURDERING recently. Gracefully genre jumping between housie bounce shiiii (his remix of A-Trak & LBL&...
Gregor Tresher - Thousand Nights (Dean Newton Remix)
While initially ‘eh’ about this track, further listening has proved I was too quick to judge and that the hype surrounding it is legit. I am really into this endless tribal drum style and euphoric, melodic break. Brings to mind some stuf...
Heaven 17 - Penthouse And Pavement (Eli Escobar Edit)
Our buddy Eli Escobar (Money Studies/TTL Family) did this awesome remix of ‘Penthouse And Pavement’, an o.g. disco gem (the original of which can be found on the Metro Area Fabric Live - highly recommended). I like this version because of...
Edward feat. Justus - Raw Structure
Well, it’s official. We’re in a recession. (I MEAN, DUH). What with the hope of the new president elect juxtaposed with the state of just about everything in this country, I’ve been doing some pondering about what it means to be Ame...
Nick Verwey - Hobgoblin
This track is a treat from my hollerbuddies. Around three minutes in, things “get serial’, it’s minimal in the best, bounciest, most excellent way - a step away from the more organic noises I’ve been appreciating as of late, b...
Hot Chip - Touch Too Much (Fake Blood Remix)
I know shameless self promotion is kind of lame, but I’m really excited about this mix and want to share it. Our boys from Media Contender were nice enough feature a Staccato exclusive. We don’t post track listings to deter biters, but dr...
Circlesquare - Dancers (Radio Edit)
The sun set at 4:47pm today. I am not a fan of winter, even if in LA the idea of ‘colder months’ means approximately 65 degrees and drizzly. Be that as it may, the chillier feel of this song by German (by way of Vancouver) band Circlesqua...
Danity Kane - Damaged (Public remix)
While it might be hard to catch me now-a-days throwing down a straight 4-on-the-floor 130bpm electro set, I still take pride in the fact that I was ahead of the curve… By about 6 years. And don’t get me wrong, I still have a special place...
DJ Skeet Skeet - Yes We Can… Be-More (Obama & LBL)
Feeling a lot of love from you guys recently, and it is much appreciated. It is really exciting, the dialogue and movement beginning here, and I am blessed to be a part of it. Thank you for reading, commenting, caring, dreaming. This might be the mos...
Cardo - Trombose (Original Mix)
I am FEELING this track. This is a fucking high energy after hours slamming jawn that makes me shake my head and close my eyes and swing my hips. I like that it’s really anonymous sounding, too. There is something to be said about songs that ha...
Roberto Perotti - Everyone dies (Original Mix)
After a couple of weeks lacking in inspiration, I have recently been graced by the torrent gods with massive amounts of great techno. PRAISE THEM! and the unlimited Rapidshare account! This track is from the Freak Show Vol. 4 Compilation. While most...
Danny Daze Feat. Louisahhh!!! - I Am The Beat
I am really excited to blog about this, the first time an original/collab from yours truly is on DBDF. You may remember Danny Daze/Discotech from previous entries discussing our miamigo (miami amigo. ZING). Dude is extraordinarily talented (Miami...
Mijk Van Dijk - Closer (Original Mix)
In my understanding, one of the defining principles of minimal techno is the careful addition and subtraction of one ingredient at a time. This hypnotic, subtle art can be totally fucking lame and boring if it’s done wrong, but GODDAMN, WHEN IT...
Greg Cerrone - Bullit (Miles Dyson Remix)
When I originally listened to this track on a run, I was kind of “whatever” about it; it didn’t make me go faster or inspire flight. However, upon a closer look, I have to admit my first impressions were wrong. This is a subtle, moo...
Kanye West - Everything I Am
Alright, well once in awhile I just get stuck on something completely off-target. You might use this, you might not. You WILL enjoy it though… If you haven’t already. I was surprised to see that the all mighty AND glorious Hype Machine on...
Proxymusic - War Paint + Late Of The Pier - Bathroom Gargle (Tronik Youth Remix) + More
HOLY SHIT! Talk about a hustle and a grind. I cannot even begin to explain what I have been doing in my absence, but I can assure you that I have been spending day, night, and dreams (literally) on some very big things that you will notice very soon....
Ghislain Poirier - Blazin’ (Modeselektor Remix)
THIS IS A FUCKING MONSTER. I don’t know where it was hiding in my iTunes, but I (re?)discovered it today to my great pleasure, and have been kind of stomping around the apartment and rocking like an autistic child to the bass since. Berlin̵...

Nôze - Remember Love
I love pianos. And poppy French Gypsy house (”Caravan”? Lulz). This track is really good for car rides through desolate places when you feel like your life is a movie, and also closing cosmic disco and classic house sets with a feel-good...
Max Pask - Lost On Me (Max et Louis Remix)
Back in LA, fresh from HOT CITY (cold city, NYC). This trip I had the pleasure of kicking it with the loosely deemed ‘old guard boys club of new york based geniuses’ (my term, not theirs): Friedman, Dack, Pask. The latter of the bunch was...
Sultan - Protection (Tocadisco Remix)
This track is super cinematic… I can only really imagine dropping it as an opener for an enormous crowd of heads, so in terms of actual times you’ll get to play it out and it’s real “usefulness”, it’s one to pull o...
M.I.A. - Jimmy (Konrad Goes Blucka Blucka Remix)
Am I the only one who misses M.I.A.? Minus Louisahhh!!!’s VERY rare semi-mainstream ‘Paper Planes‘ post… Even the underground house queen has a small bit of love for my neon clad goddess. So how can one post get even better? W...
Database - Zero
What do you get when you cross D.I.M., a Speak & Spell, and two dudes from Brazil? Probably something close to the tight-as-a-twelve-year-old production of Database. These guys are well armed with an arsenal of original tracks + remixes that have...
Daniel Mehlhart - Redrum Society
Oh man. Latin flavored funky minimal house might be my favorite thing. It feels really healthy, if that makes any sense… Not so much about vice and violence as the more electronic stuff. More dancing, more room to move and play within the rhyth...
